Bye Bye Chris Sligh on ‘American Idol’

So how did we DDN.com Idol Poll voters do predicting the outcome tonight? Well, we liked Melinda, Blake and Gina the best and Sanjaya by far was the worst. In fact, three times more people voted that he get the boot than even took the time to vote for their favorite AND he stays again tonight.

OK people of Southwest Ohio. Did you call and vote for your favorite? No? Stop that! I challenge each and every one of you to take a couple minutes next week and vote for anyone other than Sanjaya and let our voices be heard!

Bottom three…Phil, Hailey and Chris Sligh.

Gwen Stephani performed with Akon (didn’t know who that was) looking as beautiful as she did last night. This is one pop star who can sing live. Many of them can’t so I was pleasantly surprised. She’s so adorable and after her insightful and honest comments to the Idols this week, I like her even more than I did before. I think it’s so awesome that she did the show.

With heels, she looked down at Ryan and that kind of surprised me because I’ve always thought of her as tiny. Tiny and short. So this must mean Ryan is just really short. : )

Funny thing…I checked DialIdol.com and they have Melinda, Chris Richardson and LaKisha as the top three vote getters. Chris R.? I never would have guessed that. Do you think he’s that good?

Number 4 most votes according to DialIdol? Lord help us all…Sanjaya.

Back to the Idol bottom three…and it’s Phil, Haley and Chris Sligh. If you take Sanjaya out of the equation this is the right bottom three.

Okay, my blue eyes are safe!!! You go Phil. Randy and Paula wouldn’t predict who was going home out of Chris and Haley but Simon says he thought “Bye, bye Curly!” And once again Simon is right and Haley is safe. Chris Sligh is going home.

Chris Sligh is leaving a little earlier than I would have thought but I have no problem with this. The last couple of weeks he just hasn’t brought it. He’s better than Sanjaya though!!!!

Okay Idol fans, please pick up the phone and vote next week and I’ll put myself on the top of that list. No more excuses just because I’m blogging. I’ll vote next week if you will!

How low can you go, ABC?

First to go: So long, Paulina
I thought Shandi Finnesi (the epitome of all things American) would be booted … she was stiffer than Paulina Porizkova. But she’s a knock out, right? Perhaps, America just loves the way she looks.

Best quote: “I guess my fan base was my family and they were not extensive enough,” Porizkova said.

Pointless. Frustrating. A waste of time
The elimination show. Give me a break. This is the most insulting thing I’ve ever seen from reality TV. It’s an utter waste of time. The results show needs to go. U gather up this huge audience for Dancing with the Stars and you have them sitting around for just commercials and poop. I’m ashamed to admit I even watched it. The results show was a really weak show to go on for an hour … if this is how ABC wants to squander a LIVE audience then to hell with’em, I’ll start watching ‘Idol!’

Blackout No, I’m not talking about what you think … there was an actual black out for about a minute at the end of the show. @#$@? How can you build up to this cheesy poof of an elimination show and tick off viewers with technical difficulties?

What about you?
Who did you think was gonna go first? Paulina and her partner (Alec Mazo) didn’t have the lowest score, by the way.

Your voting: It looks like Paulina and Alec weren’t who most of you voted for on our online poll. Billy Ray took that award hands down. I’m having a change of heart for old Billy Ray (wannabee Keith Urban) Cyrus. He’s providing great comedy. So, when he actually dances well, America loves it. As for Clyde “too tall to tango” Drexler, I don’t know. Loved the man as an NBA player, but I’m feeling sorry for him dancing. He seems to be strugglin’ bad. But I think he gives giants everywhere something to hope for. I mean, let’s see you grow to 6’7”/6’9” and try to dance the quick step. LOL!

The wasting of Dionne Warwick
Oh, and the performance by Warrick was great. But they presented her to us on a trash can lid. You have this great guest performer and your production for your elimination show sucks. What a waste. I would have rather experienced the stars and their partners dancing to Warrick’s music than the professionals. ABCs gonna ruin this, just you wait and see. They are gonna force me to watch American Idol. And I do NOT want to do that.
