I gotta hand it to him...I would have quit a long long time ago. However, he did need to go. He is definitely not better than everyone else on the program. Some of the people who were previously voted off were better than him...and I'm sure he knew that. I think it's time people just let it go. Let him try to go back to being a normal teenager.


I agree; I mean the dude is annoying as an obsessive retail salesman trying to sell you a shirt but he is a human being.

The show is over and people should just let him live in peace. I can't imagine how much crap he'll have to put up with now. And knowing him, he's going to cry if someone points at him and says "Boo!".


I have to agree. No matter how badly he sang over the past few weeks, it really wasn't his choice to be voted off or not. This shouldn't be held against him, which I suspect it might be for quite a while.

Spoilers about the duet (if it hasn't been posted already)

Supposedly, the great "duet" is supposed to consist of Celine Dion and an Elvis impersonator (Elvis being digitally added to the screen, and the impersonator singing, or something like that.)

Anyone else find that a bit bizarre and think that those two don't even go well together? o_0

You think that's weird Kugetsu, look at an even creepier duet,

The fallen pop princess and the mild-mannered ‘Idol’ could be a match made in musical heaven

Britney Spears loves the Sanj
Right about now, the musical gods must be weeping – or at least giggling with glee.

Rumour has it Britney Spears wants to record a duet with recent American Idol castoff Sanjaya Malakar. Sigh. So many jokes, so little time.

According to a report set to appear in Star Magazine, Spears is a big fan of the Sanj. Apparently, the Idol’s sunny smile brightened up her darkest days, or some such lame metaphor.

“Britney started watching American Idol when she was in rehab,” said a source. “She became a huge Sanjaya fan and thinks the two of them can make beautiful music together.”

The pairing is certainly possible. Fresh from his appearance at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner this weekend (seriously, what was that?), Malakar can pretty much take whatever project he chooses – assuming he can get around his Idol contract.

As for Spears, she’s desperate to reclaim her pop princess status. The source told Star she wants to take advantage of Malakar’s considerable pre-teen fan base to put her back at the top of the charts. Word has it, she’s already had her people contact his people.


Lovely!

So...basically...that's saying that you have to be on drugs to think Sanjaya is good? :P Oh Brittany...what will you do next?

Definately believe Blake and Lakisha will be in the bottom this week. Hopefully Phil too, I thought he sucked.

But out of everyone, Blake gave the weakest performance. I know "Imagine" is a difficult song to sing, but he'll definately be in the bottom this week.

Wed Apr 25, 2007 5:57 pm

Actually, DialIdol is saying Chris will be in the bottom - they are predicting that he will go. I thought he was really good last night.

Who should be in the bottom 3:
1. Phil
2. Blake
3. Lakisha

Who probably will be in the bottom 3:
1. Chris
2. Phil?
3. Lakisha

DialIdol predictions (From lowest on the list to highest)
1. Chris
2. Melinda (REALLY?)
3. Blake

Wed Apr 25, 2007 6:32 pm

MELINDA IN THE BOTTOM 3!?!?!?!?!?! No Way! She was phenomenal last night!

Wed Apr 25, 2007 7:13 pm

No! Chris was one of the best last night, that is really not fair!

Wed Apr 25, 2007 7:30 pm

Meh, I thought everyone (except maybe Likisha...) did very well last night. I wouldn't be surprised be who goes unless Melinda or Jordin ended up going (only based on the fact that they've been doing so well with votes so far.)

Wed Apr 25, 2007 7:44 pm

Chris better not leave, he's a much better singer than the guy with the no upper lip or teeth. And better than that creepy bald guy.

Wed Apr 25, 2007 10:37 pm

DialIdol has been completely off this season.

I actually didn't think last night was as great as all the judges were making it out to be. I didn't really enjoy any of the performances a ton, like I have other weeks.

My bottom three would be... Phil, Phil, Phil. I don't want anyone else to go home! If I had to choose, I guess Chris and Lakisha.

Chris sings really well sometimes (like last night), it's good when he does those runs. However, I don't think he'll beat Blake in terms of popularity. I can't imagine a scenario where Chris manages to be in the top 3.
