    I'm secretly hoping Sanjia is kept on for several more turns just because I want to see how many shades of red Simon can turn each time a quality person is sent home and he gets another chance to torture us all.

    By the way... yeah, I'm american. Yeah, there's some lousy talent here selling lots of cds. Just remember, this Isn't a scientific poll folks! Many of us couch potatoes are too lazy to pick up a phone to call in for the real talent, leaving the preteens and idol-obsessed to do the picking.

    Again, its not a scientific poll or a real vote of the population. So please don't label us all as morons who can't judge talent. For a real reflection of our analysis of talent you would need to look at something more legit. Like our elections. ;)

    By "the wee girl" do you mean Sabrina, or did I miss something?
    When Sabrina & Haley were the bottom 2-2weeks ago- Sabrina came to the platform like someone told her her best friend died-- I guess it's hard to keep check on emotions, especially when they lose.If it was me, I'd have to practice losing graciously over & over so I could at least not cringe to see myself "fall apart" on tape later!

    Retrotia, we will try not to spoil any surprises but if you saw the show with Lulu, there was a little girl with braces crying in the audience.

    Just a heads up and an FYI, if I haven't already mentioned this previously, there is a very definite reason why Sanjaya is still on the show. One of them is Howard Stern, the DJ. He caught wind of this website: Vote for the Worst

    So, he decided to up the ante and get his radio listeners to do the same thing. Sanjaya's votes, I believe, were in the top 4 due to this.

    I can't stand listening to him but this should be interesting as it moves along.

    Yes, Melinda has been my favorite since the start. Melinda, I am amazed with every week. I am in awe, every time I hear her sing.

    Sorry, but its been over for weeks. Melinda Doolittle is so far ahead of in talent the drama is gone. The major difference between Melinda and all the rest is that she is a PERFORMER. The others are just singers.

    Jordin is great. She's my second choice and she does keep getting closer. The talent and presence she has at 17 is amazing. In another year she would have made it, but not with a Melinda Doolittle in front of her.

    Phil was the surprise this week. I think he saved himself for another week.

    But if anyone but Melinda wins, it will be a crime. It will show that America doesn't know talent.

    Yes, Melinda out pasts everybody and it would be a crime if she does not get the ultimate title. I would say that Jordin is right there with her. Oh, now I forget her name Takisha? Would be third.

    Yes, Phil was a big surprise. The other three guys were not that good. The women are amazing singers. The men on the other hand.

    To me and I know I'll get the heat for it but american idol is 1 or 2 steps above the gong show. Instead of a gong they have simon . Sometimes I think he gets a bad rap. I'll stick with ugly betty where the back stabbing and gossip makes me feel close to home.

    LMAO at you Chippers. This week the show actuallly hurt my ears. Head cold maybe, but probably not. Gosh, those people could not sing tonight!!

    It was like chewing on aluminum foil

    Or

    Nails scratching a chalkboard!

    I absolutely LOVED Jordin tonight! Who knew she'd blow everyone away singing Country!

    I also think the boys are seriously lacking talent. BRING CHRIS DAUGHTRY BACK!!

    Oh gosh I barely can watch him. I... feel... so... sorry for him. Anyway,

    Ooooh I love your Maltipoo too... soooo cute!! I have a Maltese. Oh I loved Chris Daughtry too.

    (sorry everyone, didn't mean to go off topic)

    J_9 - I so agree. The singers last night were pretty bad, but I think Jordan and Melinda did incredible.
