I think it's incredible that Cook ended up winning. From this point in the game, I didn't see it happening!

Dear My Name,
Sorry for the late reply....
This is a blog- other's have stated thier opinion and I stated mine. I hate that the show has become a popularity contest instead of a singing contest.
Kristy is not the best one on the show- that's ok- it's not personal- it's an evaluation of her vocal capability in comparison to the others on the show.
Obviously, a week later, others agree since she is now voted off.

Oh my gosh Tiffany calm down!!!!! I bet if you were on a show like American Idol you would want people to vote for you. Huh? Think about it.

I'm absolutely disgusted- all the way from people from Kristy's town calling 600 times each just becuase she's from there to the fact that the whole US must be tone deaf. All well- now that he's voted off, he's hopefully that much closer to putting out an album. I'll watch just for Jason Castro and if he's axed then I'm done all together.

The show has only redeemed itself by having two Christian songs preformed over the last two weeks!

No I said I'll watch if he's on it.. maybe he can sing all the songs they dance too. If they are all instrumental songs, then at least he will know all the words to them and it should be easy....

Did Cap'n just say he would like to watch Michael Johns dance?

Yeah, I always enjoy watching "So You Think You Can Dance." I haven't decided yet if I want to do the recaps for it or not.

So...we might be looking for someone if anyone's interested...hint, hint...Nicky who watches it...just a thought.

@ Nicky, if Michael Johns is on that show I'll watch it!

@ Nicky - thanks for the correction. By the way, I did not particularly like nor care for their version of that song when they did it. It was very manic and weird - I just didn't get it at all.

FYI- this little light of mine was performed by the clark brothers not jonas brothers (they're a cheesy boy group from disney or something.)
michael was robbed but like we said it was bound to happen to one of the contestants just like every season.
i'm going to make my pitch for everyone to watch "so you think you can dance" this summer. the voting process, elimination, originality and technical level are at a WAY higher level than AI. i have consistently enjoyed it more for the past 3 years. give it a try! i was so happy to see some of the dancers from past seasons at the beginning of the idol gives back show!

Well, I hate to call it so early because things could still change, but I think you're probably right.

David Archuleta will win because of the ridiculous amount of votes that little teen girls will give with their spoiled little unlimited messaging plans their parents give them. I wouldn't be surprised if a few soccer moms that want David to meet their daughter throw in a few votes as well.

David Cook will sell the most CDs - and I'm going to stick with that prediction and Michael Johns will get a record label to sign him. But I was totally shocked he was eliminated at this stage.

Mo... it wasnt 3 hours.. it was 2, come on now, I've told you a million times to stop exaggerating!!

Re: American Idol 2008 Results - Top 7 Announced - April 10

@Ape - I don't disagree. I actually don't think David Cook will win.

@ Mike - lol - poor Cap'n. He's a voter without an idol now...

@ Jason - I agree with the majority of what you wrote. However, I think it will be better in the long run if David doesn't win the competition.

Cap'n is pissed because he spent 3 hours on Tuesday voting for MJ on his cell phone :)

@Zach - You must be watching a different idol than the rest of us. As far as I know, Carly hasn't been singing country and Syesha hasn't been doing gospel...

Your ranting is meaningless as this happens every single season. Idol doesn't pick anyone so it's pointless for people to get mad at the show. America isn't ignorant; they just have very defined tastes. If you read my article you'll see that I explain how it is that Michael came to get kicked off of American Idol. It was his own fault.

Most of the people on the show now are talented. You can't just perform well and expect to win. You have to know the audience that watches the show and the audience that will like you and you have to build a niche for yourself. Anyone who hasn't figured that out by now doesn't deserve to win.

Michael didn't win over the rock niche that he was trying to fit in (David Cook won over that crowd) so he was left without a voting block. Even if Michael had tried to switch to a blues niche or something he likely would have met the same fate. He never really had a chance once David started doing well and he lagged behind.

@ Scotty... yeah I'm that upset over it. I normally dont even watch AI, this year I got sucked into it. NO WAY Johns should have left this week... no way... but what am I gonna do?! I'll tell you what I'm gonna do.... nuthin :)
