Who goes tonight from Idol?

I feel the bottom 3 will be John Stevens "Big Red", Camile, and JPL...although America seems to love him.

Yep...we do. If I didn't agree with you, I wouldn't have humiliated you and made you mad. But we do agree on some things and that all that matters right now.

Based on last night's performances, I think Conan Jr. should go, BUT- Camille just doesn't have it. All three that have been mentioned will probably be the next three to go whatever the order is.

I have watched exactly 14 minutes of this show tonight, and the only time this or any other season I have watched more than five minutes.

Why? Why do people care about this? Why would young people want to get up on TV and exclaim "I want to be lame! I want to be so middle of the road! I want to be like the back up singers and dancers on The Brady Bunch Variety Hour! I want to sing middle of the road songs that only appeal to nostalgic baby boomers and that are virtually meaningless to anyone from my or more recent generations!"

It's utter crap. And the winners are never going to get rich, have we learned nothing about how badly treated performers are by the major labels from watching years of Behind the Music?

The sickest thing I ever saw tho was when the producers last year made the contestants sing God Bless the USA the week the Iraq invasion began. I mean, such PANDERING. And those contestants were the exact age at which they should have been rioting in the streets and singing baby boomer songs like For What It's Worth or What's Goin On?

It's a sham. I'm surprised people care.

Awww. Amy didnt deserve to leave. She had the best performance last week, and she definitely wasn't the worst this week.

WHAT IS THIS?? The bottom 3 was Amy, La Toya, and Jennifer...some of the best last night. You saw the face on "Big Red" when he was safe. He knew he should have gone. This is starting to piss me off. People are getting screwed.

five times, eh? did you grow up in nyc?

I think they're keeping little Conan on because of the controversy. They always do that. And I'm afraid millions of adolescents across the country are voting for who's 'cute' and not for talent. That's the only reason I can imagine that other John is still on.

I am a little kid! Only little kids like AI.

No, it's actually not true. I read a really interesting article about the phenomenon in Rolling Stone or someplace that explained that the majority of people invested in that show are women in their 50s and they feel as if the stars OWE them time and attention because they voted for them. I mean, that mother of the contestant can spray as much pink in her hair as she wanted, but she ain't nobody's target demographic except AI's. The funny thing is that the media has managed to convince you that "kids" like the show. But it's 100% processed cheese food that you really should ignore. Whatever happened to the young people's desire to keep it real? All AI does is keep it fake! Go searching for talent and originality on your own.

When I was a teenager I had a job as a bellboy in a hotel. Those AI performers remind me of the hotel lounge act singers. They had some chops, but they just had to do these crap songs to make money and that show is just promoting that stuff. You can do so much better!

P.S. Yeah, Pap, I bought Nellie today as a special treat after surviving a doctors visit and man, it's just really good. I'm not saying there's no calculation there, but at least there's CLEVER calculation. What good does it do a 17 year old white girl to have to sing Heard it Through The Grapevine to help people in her parent's age group rekindle their fond memories of The Big Chill?

Define talent? I trust my own judgment, namo! It doesn't matter what decade they're singing from - I'm sure you also know talent when you see it.

Namo, come on, stop being an idiot!!! It's obviosu you don't care about the damn show, so STOP POSTING ABOUT IT! does it really affect yyour life that much!?!! your posts on this thread are just unbelievably annoying. Did you ever think maybe the finalists last year are PATRIOTIC and want to SUPPORT their cvountry instead of protesting!?1 Maybe they're like me and think we SHOULD be in Iraq!?! Novel concept!!! Open your mind, please!

Now, as for the results: America has officially gone tone-deaf!! Good lord, I wanted to shoot myself when John was safe for another week (yawn)
there is NO JUSTICE in this world!! I really do have to consider if I can kee pwatching as long as John is on, but I love Diana and Fantasia and George too mush..ugh, i feel sick!!!!
