Extremely disappointed to see Michael leave; while I had no illusions that he would win, he’s much better than some of the women still hanging around. I didn’t see his age as a polarizing factor, it’s just that those of us who are close to his age and voting only vote a handful of times instead of dialing for hours. I don’t have the time or the patience for that. I wish him the best of luck with his career. Meanwhile, Ryan is a do*che, that’s a no-brainer. I’m sure the bit was scripted, but he likely had some input. And you have to hand it to him — he works hard.
Yay! I just wanted to say how much I love the ‘Mechagodzilla aliens are working for Kristy Lee Cook’ segments. They’re my number 1 reason to watch Idolatry. I’m still rooting for Jason Castro, though, so I guess I’d get thrown in the brig.
I think Simon Cowell is a sort of “Benjamin Linus” (He is the bad guy and everybody knows it), American Idol Producers are “Jacob” (The Master Mind hidden in the darkness)and RYAN SEACREST IS DEFINITELY, THE BLACK SMOKE !!!
Vocal contest? Not! Popularity contest at best. My picks are not important. Letting Fox and Ryan know that the Very low Blow was not a good thing at all. Is that how American Idol gives back to the fans? Slap for Ryan for not standing up “not going to do it” Will I watch next season? Don’t know I doubt it. I have rescinded my pledge to Idol gives back. I will help in another way. I cannot be associated with low life acts of this nature. American Idol if this is for the fans PLEASE don’t give back! I don’t even think Simon would reach that low! Honestly! Wow disgusted with American Idol right now! Simon do something PLEASE! Never again should this happen.
Why would anyone expect any different from Ryan? He’s part of the rudest, cruelest show on TV. Is it any worse than what he did to Chris Daughtry a couple of years back? Is it any worse than the steady bashing of Clay Aiken? Nothing could be worse than what they have done and are still doing to Taylor Hicks. They have made nasty comments, taken him off the opening credits of the show, had Clive Davis come on the show and insult him, failed to introduce him at the season 6 finale(though he needs no introduction),and tried to pretend that he never existed, while all but naming Chris Daughtry the real idol. What did Taylor ever do to them but be smart enough and entertaining enough to earn enough votes to win their contest by THEIR RULES? So again, I ask……Why does Ryan’s cruel treatment of Michael Johns surprise or shock anyone? I would thing you’d come to expect such by now.
You know Syesha is going to sing the Whitney Houston-Mariah Carey duet. She loves diva songs she can’t pull off so this one, two punch is right up her alley.
the more surreal these get the better I like them!!
Don’t cry over spilled milk. MJ is gone, kaput, finito, kalash. To those who said they aren’t gonna watch AI anymore, ‘coz MJ is gone, or if DC was voted off, y’ all are hypocrites, for all I know, y’ll still be watching AI because y’ love it. Don’t blame AI brass, it’s your fault why MJ was gone, you didn’t vote enough, you lazy buggers, y’all very well know the rules, votes that count, not your sour grapes or your complaints . Does not make sense. Next time you have favorites, vote until your fingers bleed. That’s what fans of DA are doing, they’re determined to let him win it all. Of all the guys, he has the best voice, so it’s a win win situation.
I liked MJ but again not enough votes that is why he was sent home. He is talented and will do well. I think some of the others should have been sent home instead. David Archuleta is still the best and most unique talent and yes his fans continue to vote for him. It is all about the fans now. You vote for the ones you like. I am not a tween but I love David A. He is AWESOME.
Now I’m hoping Kristy Lee stays around for a while just to see how this movie/storyline develops. I get a big laugh out of it every week.
Once again, Slezak, I love you. The puppies & kitties everytime Archie’s name was mentioned–great. And it does feel like something ominously unseen is behind KLC’s continued presence on the show.
To Aragall: The shocking thing about this is the timing. You’re right in everythimg you said, but this has never suppossed to happen in “Gives Back week”. That makes the difference. It is suppossed to be about share, giving, hope, and as reader Jack well said: “Is that how American Idol gives back to the fans?”. Period. I don’t want to say “I will never watch Idol again” because I know I still be watching it, but I can swear at this very momment that I will never watch stupid and FAKE Idol Gives Back Week never ever again!
To Supermart: I guess I’m beyond being shocked by this nasty crowd. I think they would have done it on Christmas day if it would have made them a buck. It all comes down to the almighty dollar. I really don’t think they have any connection with the Idols besides the amount of money they can squeeze out of them.
Michael was robbed. According to his fans his voting line was busy throughout the voting period so there was no way he legitimately dropped from 3rd in the TV Guide polls to last. It will be interesting to see if any of the mainstream media picks up on this but looks like Michael’s having the last laugh anyway.
I think Ryan owes the man a PUBLIC apology for being such a tacky jerk!!!
