Sry everyone, I meant 2 say out of the females; Carly and Syesha are the top 2 female vocalists who deserve more credit than what's given 2 them.
Sun, Jun 1, 2008 at 02:03 AM EST
Syesha and Carly got so many more votes than Brooke and KLC b/c they both performed like pro's week after week. In my books they Sy and Smithson both are the top 2 vocalists of this season. They both are the forces 2 be reckoned with. KLC and Brooke got less votes b/c they sung horribly and got no praise from the judges so I am glad they both were in the bottom 2 b/c they deserved 2 be there. GET OVER IT!
Syesha, u are an angel; ur talent @ everything is like diamond. That means u are a precious truly skilled performer and amazing lovely singer that will win hearts of many people one day. It also means out of everyone I observed this season on Idol, u are the most hardworking (+) genuine talent I have ever seen in Idol history as an Rnb Singer; No one comes close 2 u. Ur voice is magical and don't let those haters say u are a fake! 2 me u r phenomenal. I am always praying that u will do well everywhere u go Syesha.

Kristy and Brooke are the worst singers ever in the top 12. They both should have never even made to the top 24 or made it 2 hollywood week. In the Great words of Simon Cowell "NOBODY IS GOING 2 REMEMBER FORGETTABLE SONG MURDERERS LIKE THOSE 2 STOOGES." Their attitudes get 2 my nerves and make me mad. American Idol will lose credibility due 2 these song murderers. America Should have hated them more 2 vote them off; they are boring, arrogant lousy and beggers also. The credibility went down b/c of those 2; how lousy of them. VFTW is giving those fools who are voting for them a good name.
Sun, Jun 1, 2008 at 01:45 AM EST
Yay! She is out; she is the worst singer in AI HISTORY. She deserved to go after all the better singers were voted out before her. I am so happy that my wish came true and Syesha stayed. Syesha's talent @ singing is unique and lovely and she deserves a lot more credit than wut she gets from everyone including u folks and the judges. Instead Both Brooke and Kristy should have gone for murdering those Mariah Carey songs. I can't believe they both stayed longer than Michael Johns. America has made the correct choice 2 keep Syesha in the competition, she deserved it truly and 2 all who underestimated her. She made it 2 top 3; shows how voters know and voters are not that dumb. If they voted Syesha off it will be all b/c of those haters. SHAME ON U FOR BEING SO MEAN TO HER I HATE THOSE PEOPLE WHO HATE SYESHA- SHE AMAZING IF U THINK SYESHA SHOULD HAVE GONE INSTEAD OF KRISTY U LOSERS ARE TONE DEAF AND U HAVE WAX BUILDUP. U WILL ALL PAY AND WHEN SYESHA BECOMES A STAR U WILL ALL BE SORRY

There is some good stuff from JC Superstar (primarily Everything's Alright) or from Song and Dance that Jason could do justice to. I don't think he's in the trouble this week that Carly is in. She doesn't seem to have the imagination that the others have as far as making a song her own. What she does know however is what songs suit her as they are originally performed. I hope she outlasts Brooke at least.
anonymous Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 07:27 PM EST
carly's always so mad...so i think she should go...
and david archuleta...
and maybe syesha
i want david c to win!!!
IdolFan227 Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 07:25 PM EST
I just want to respond to Archie Downer's comment:"Archuleta or Cook are the choices for me. Instead of bashing DA, what in the world does anyone see or hear in Jason Castro ??? His voice is weak and he has no personality at all."
This is so untrue in my opinion. Coming from the same person who said David Archuleta was talented and deserved to win?? I'm sorry, he was outstanding at first and I loved him but he lost me after Beatles week. Jason is awesome, his personality is funny, I love how he's mellow, he's a good singer and more appealing to me. David A is kinda weird.
Sorry fans.
IdolFan227 Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 07:21 PM EST
Kristy Lee Cook deserved to go. But I agree with Lynn McKeown.
I want to see David Archuleta go. You guys will hate me for this, but he doesn't deserve it. He was amazing in the semifinals, but his recent performances just weren't good. Just because he's cute and seems like a nice person doesn't mean he deserves to win. Honestly people...the voters of David Archuleta are only a tad smarter than Fanjayas. Vote smart people! (Anything can happen: I was so sad when Michael left.)
Lynn McKeown Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 06:57 PM EST
I was not a Kristy Lee fan at the beginning, but I really think she improved drastically in the past couple of weeks. I actually was sorry to see her go. Her farewell song on the table was GREAT!
DC Fan Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 06:37 PM EST
I think Jason will go home next, than Syesha, than Brooke, than Carly, than I see Archie and DC being the final 2. That's the way it should be anyways. I don't care in what order they get voted off in, I just hope it will be Archie and DC in the end, and DC will win. Glad to see KLK go home too. I don't feel sad nor sorry for her. I agree, she should have gone home a long time ago.
Adios! Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 06:32 PM EST
I was so happy when Kristy got voted off. I'll say a thousand goodbye's to her, and I won't say them being sad, I'll say them with my head held high and a smile on my face. I know I'm mean, but she should have been gone along time ago. Adios!
Archie downers Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 03:29 PM EST
Archuleta or Cook are the choices for me. Instead of bashing DA, what in the world does anyone see or hear in Jason Castro ??? His voice is weak and he has no personality at all.
josher Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 03:12 PM EST
Didn't care much for Kristy (though her "sing off' was pretty impressive), but I will so miss the robot storyline on idolatry. Who ever directed it should be working at some major Hollywood studio.
Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 02:55 PM EST
Re any regrets towards KLC's departure, I remind myself of her singing in the YouTube vid with the confederate flag behind her. Either she's unconscious of how deeply hurtful and racist that is to an entire segment of the population, or she's conscious of it and racist. Either way, not something I'd want to support.
Cranky Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 02:55 PM EST
>>slow clap...one by one the crowd rises to its feet....building slowly to a thunderous standing ovation!<< I heart Idolatry.
BrookeFAN! Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 02:47 PM EST
What's with all the Brooke hating!! She's my personal favorite and I think she's a totally genuine person that stood up for Kristy when everyone pretty much dismissed her at the end of the eliminaton episode. ADD to that this question for all the Carly supporters -- DIDN'T YOU FIND IT CURIOUS THAT SYESHA, KRISTY AND BROOKE WERE ROOMMATES AND NOBODY STAYED WITH CARLY? Am I the only one that finds Carly to be totally unlikeable?!?!
Stacey Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 02:46 PM EST
David A has a great voice...no doubt about that...but...that's all he has. David Cook is a total package...a real ARTIST...why r all of you people so in love with David A? I just don't get it! David Cook rocks!
wtf Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 02:37 PM EST
Look, I enjoy JC's music, but let's face it - he doesn't go for the powerful ending because he CAN'T. He doesn't have that sort of vocal power. He always seems like he's stretching to get through a song. I'm always on the edge of my seat, just wanting him to find the next note, especially when he attempts falsetto mode...
Stephanie T. Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 01:16 PM EST
I was not surprised when Kristy was cast off. She was improving but her performance still felt a bit artificioal. Mercardo will probably go home on Wednesday, however, Webber might be a challenge for Castro. I mean is he going to fight with Archuletta for "Any Dream Will Do" from "Joseph"? Castros choice for songs is going to be limited unless he can hit the high notes on "Music of the Night".
Maggs Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 01:13 PM EST
Slezak there are tears rolling down my cheeks because i was laughing so hard. The one bad result of Kristy leaving AI is that there will be no more Godzilla...sigh.
Archie downers Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 01:08 PM EST
Archuelta is akward, but his voice more than makes up for it. If you look at Josh Groban, he is akward also, does not move around at all. No one seems to mind that. Give the kid a break, he will have many people around him to develop him, it is actually refreshing !! Cook can be a real superstar and hope to see him and Archie down to the last two.
wtf Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 12:42 PM EST
Slezak - I love these vids more than is reasonable. And Darn You, KLC! You made me love you, too. Gotta say, I even like Brook sticking up for her best pal (KLC) or herself or whoever. And loved DC sitting down next to DA, big brother style. Love it when these guys show a mind of their own - wish they'd do it more often, especially in support of each other. (hint: and you can, guys - IT'S LIVE TV! Don't let Seacrest & Co bamboozle you!)
Lyn Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 12:06 PM EST
I will miss the genius film-editing for KLC-Zilla. Thanks Idolatry.
DawnieD Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 11:34 AM EST
You know, during the robot tribute, I was really enjoying her singing of "Forever". She has more talent that some of the past contestants who had "overstayed their welcome" (Haley, Scott Savo, Jasmine). She was also one of the better dressers (although I thought everyone looked better last week). Thanks for the memories, KLC, and thanks Idolatry for the wonderful entertainment.
Hamburger Royal Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 10:39 AM EST
Awww. I will miss Kristy Lee too. And the awesome Idolatries on her. I always hoped that the MechaGodzilla eventually would maul that Ewok David A. Oh, and for those who call her talentless, try to google up "Deutschland sucht den Superstar" (German Idol) clips - if you dare. Compared to the so-called 'talent' there, beloved Kristy is Whitney Houston and Madonna combined, with The Rolling Stones at the instruments and the Harlem Gospel Choir as background singers.
mae Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 10:14 AM EST
I'm gonna miss Kristy. She was a good performer and didn't take herelf too seriouly unlike "tattoo mama" and Sayesha. PLZ AMERICA, what are ya thinkin? These two shoulda BEEN gone already---long b4 Michael Johns and KLC. And the 2 Davids get ALL the publicity. Idol, let's share the promos with Brooke and Jason
MsDaisy Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 09:49 AM EST
So sad KFC (oops, KLC) is gone...girlfriend had some minor talent and she didn't seem to take herself too seriously (are you listening Carly and Syeshia?). I'll actually miss her a tiny little bit.
Dawn Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 09:45 AM EST
Good Luck Kristy!! I enjoyed you. I am hoping Carly is next. Can't stand watching her show off her tattoo. She screams and looks so desperate. Not a good Idol at all. Brooke and Daivd A.....hang in there. You are both very talented!!
Dawn Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 09:44 AM EST
Good Luck Kristy!! I enjoyed you. I am hoping Carly is next. Can't stand watching her show off her tattoo. She screams and looks so desperate. Not a good Idol at all. Brooke and Daivd A.....hang in there. You are both very talented!!
Suzanne Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 09:15 AM EST
You know, after KLC's Q&A with EW on Friday, I liked her way more. Now I'm sad she's gone.
Good Idolatry. Thx. (Wow--you guys hate David A. Poor kid. He's doin' his best.)
MeNY Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 09:03 AM EST
Best. Idolatry. EVER! I will definitely miss Mechagodzilla ... both of them.
Stacey Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 08:57 AM EST
Thank God KLC is gone!!!!I am with the others though....I will miss the robot(way more that Kristy)! It's obvious who is the most talented this season...David Cook...it's obvious who will win....David A and that's just plain sad...That's ok though....David Cook will do much better with his career if he finishes 2nd....Carly deserves the number 3 spot....and America will you please vote off Syesha already! She shouldve been voted off instead of Michael Johns...I mean COME ON!Go David Cook...I love you man!
NineDaves Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 08:15 AM EST
i'm worried about carly too. i'm really rooting for her. hope she chooses the right ALW song (although, i will admit, as a theater gay, even i can't stand ALW). still, i think carly has more talent than syesha, brooke, and jason castro put together. a david cook and carly finale would be my dream as well. though we'd be fooling ourselves if we didn't think david a was going to take it all. ugh! here we go again. another BORING AI winner, right up there with j sparks....
Elizabeth Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 06:04 AM EST
What is this movie that has been sampled in "Idolatry?" I hope KLC stops by the cubicles and we get her reaction to the montages. Y'all need to win somekind of e-media award for this.
Nan. Mon, Apr 21, 2008 at 12:45 AM EST
I agree with Deneen... I'll miss the robotic montages. Of course I'm more into seeing Little David go. I'm sick of him and his "cute-ness" and I think that the reference to the Gremlin movies was fitting... the CUTE part, before they go nuts. He's a one trick pony, and he needs to go... now. (Or Brooke.) I've been a Brooke Fan for a while now, but she's getting to maternal or "nanny-ish" with her constant blabbering... someone needs to tell her to tone it down or shush up. Just accept the critiques and opinions, and let it go without commentary. Syesha and that baby cry are next to go in my book. She just needs to quit picking Whitney songs. Get a grip. You are not her! Jason, he's cool... does Dylan proud, but needs to stop acting like he's stoned... if he wants the votes of those who are over high school age, and not raised in Hippyville, USA. Carly, she's good, but isn't going to make it all the way. She's too invested in winning, and shows desperation too easily.
ben Sun, Apr 20, 2008 at 11:38 PM EST
I am sooo sad that Kristy Lee is leaving. I loved her during her audition then hated her in the semifinals then slowly began to love her again during the finals. Love her to death now, not because of her voice of course but because of her attitude. I'm really gonna miss her. And the robot too!
Deneen Sun, Apr 20, 2008 at 10:51 PM EST
I am way sadder to say good-bye to the awesome robot montages than to KLK. Come to think of it, those vignettes could probably sell a Ford Focus or two. . .
