tried ‘mama kin’ by aerosmith at karaoke last weekend and totally screwed it up compared to the last/first time he did it perfect a few weeks ago…roper started out with ‘will it go round’ by billy preston, though – and did it pretty much perfect, plus a little more…the performance was half great & half total shit…

worst.season.ever.

I second that. Terrible.

no one’s gonna care until the top 3 are out

Basically all the guys sucked.

this is the worst idol ever!!!!

Ok who let these guys think they could sing? I think fox strives more for looks than singing ability.

Get rid of all the guys. They were horrible. Let the women battle it out for the AI crown this season.

okay, some of those guys are actually good. About four. I say we just get down to those four and the eight girls that can actually sing and go from there.

May be you are good singer, you have good voice and you just don’t have confidence to sing in front of some presence. Gain your confidence before you put your self front of judges. Now easier way. Just add you performances at http://www.preidol.com and others will post them opinion about you. Who is with me?

I have to agree. this is a very disappointing season.

Sundance should have left. He was HORRIBLE!!

American Idol has become the Pipedream of many individuals that really are not that good. This is one of the least liked Idol shows for me. Except for three or four talents, the rest suck. Antonella should have been one of the first to be booted. She has very little singing ability.

I HATE SUNDANCE! he is Horrible, I have no idea how he out did the other guy he was up with….. the judges did a bad job. Bailey should of stayed, and Amy should have gone a long time ago! Not all the guys suck…PHILL IS GOOD!

I’d say 8 of 10 guys were unremarkable. 4 of the woman are great. And Simon is ususally spot on with his critique although a bit harsh at times. Being compared to a candle…hmmm. Well there is always the bright side.

THIS YEAR’S CONTESTANTS STILL HAVE NOT GOT THE POLITICS BEHIND AMERICAN IDOL AFTER ALL THESE YEARS.YOU CANNOT GO ON THAT STAGE AND TRY TO BE SMART OR ACT FUNNY TOWARDS SIMON COWEL.YOU CAN BE ACT SMART BUT IT SHOULD BE DONE BEHIND THE SCENE NOT UP FRONT COS YOUR BEHIND WILL BE GOING HOME THE NEXT DAY.IF YOU WANT TO MAKE IT AND YOU KNOW YOU ARE TALENTED,JUST BE HUMBLE AND LISTEN AND DON’T BE SMART ABOUT IT.BUBBLE HEADS.PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO ALL THE CONTESTANTS.THANK YOU NUCKLE HEADS

Ryan & Simon annoy me arguing.
Very childish! I think the band and backup singers are less talented.

I can’t believe Paula and Simon didnot kick Sundance out from AI.
Very very very horrible.

The only girls who were good were all the black girls, and Gina!

This is my first full season of Idol; I don’t know if I’m sad I missed out on all the others, or happy that this season is my only reference; it seems kinda weak, huh?

thie is the worst American Idol Show ever. I think you would have done better if you would of just ran last season again

This season is horrible! I’m already bored. Ugh. Where is the Chris Daughtry or the Constantine?? Damnit.

I hope antonella wins, shes a dirty little girl and will make for great celb drama if she wins!

While it may be true Idol hasnt shown me a lot this yr, I try to keep in mind that they are all still very raw and very nervous. It takes huge amounts of courage just get out there and do it. I’m sure that as the season goes on their true talent will come out.

Malinda Doolittle rocked the house
last night. Awesome good singing.
Lakisha was also excellent. Those
two are going to be the top 2 left.
Phil maybe number 3.

I agree with who ever that said Sundance and the guy from India needs to go.. I’m sorry but they’re made for singing!

I THINK PHIL SHOULD WIN> But Lakisha is good too. Good luck with all this years Idols.

Ok, how about Kelly Pickler from last year – she was horrible! The song from “Small Town Girl” (now she’s “Hollywood Girl” with those ridiculous fake boobs!!!)was weak and she looks like she gained 25 pounds, plus her new hairdo makes her look 50!! She was so cute and sweet – now she’s downright scary!

I’m so disappointed over AJ’s being voted out of AI! He’s clearly one of the men finalist who can sing, that is, if you know how to listen. At this point, I could say that AI is a popularity contest, not a singing contest!

This is my first AI experience and I have mixed emotions. I don’t understand the voting. Clearly some were booted that should have stayed. I really liked Nick’s voice and I love Lakisha. I thought Sanjayia was leaving last night, but he’s pretty sweet and America seems to like him. The girls are clearly ahead of the boys in this thing. As far as the judges, it seems that Randy’s job is to sit the fence, Paula is the sweetheart to let them down easily and Simon just simply tells it like it is…a little harsh sometimes, but mostly he’s spot on.

This is Clearly A more dissapointing year for A.I. then ever before! A.J. was so good this week. That other one (long hair & hat) was just awful.
Why don’t people shut ther eyes & CLEAN out their ears. Then they would know who can sing.
As for Antonella, Simon keeps saying how pretty she is…yes…but she CAN’T sing..dah!! What a BIG disapointment for show this year.
Stupid…stupid…stupid!

I will never watch AI again!!!!!

Anyone else feel race has anything to do with the voting? I mean 2 of the 4 men booted so far are Asian.
AJ should not have left last night, but I guess he’s not as ‘Teen Beat’ friendly as Sanjay who was terrible.

I can’t beleive A.J was voted off.Get rid of that girl that tried, but failed to sing Celine Dione,She SUCKs….and so does the boy with the pretty hair,The middle eastern kid,He double SUCKS…..

Just watching the audition process, there were more talented singers in that pool than there are in the final 24. The men’s night of singing was totally boring. As far as the male singers, I saw many other talented black singers than we have left. I think they were trying not to have too many blacks in the competition and opted for color by going Asian and Latino (only lacked the singing skills). Jared is just there because he’s cute but he fits the black singer role. The women are better singers. Lakisha and Melinda definetly stand out from the whole group. Most of the others in the competition are just lack luster singers.

Unbelievable that AJ was booted off. Clearly should have been Sanjaya. I think it will no doubt be between Lakisha and Melinda as the winner this year.

Excuse me! Not everyone likes Over the top wailing singers! We all know by now, it isnt just about singing, its the whole package. Apperance, singing, grabbing attention on stage, etc. Idol judges should just let America vote the way it is suppose to be, and keep the rude and mean comments to themselves. The votes go the way they go, not everyone likes the same thing. Period

Yes, the judges should let the votes go as they do but after all, it is a SINGING competetion – not a looks or personality only thing. You have to be able to sing as well as be charismatic and nice looking. But if you are talking about the whole package, look at the sloppy way Sanjaya was dressed! His shirt sleeves covered up his hands and he is just a Michael Jackson wannabe anyway! All the men should take a look at the women – they are dressed very nicely – all the men or should I say men and boys, dress sloppy.

ALAINA GOT VOTED OFF BECAUSE SHE SANG A DIXIE CHICK SONG DOESN’T SHE KNOW THAT MOST COUNTRY RADIO STATION ARE NOT PLAYING DIXIE CHICK SONGS AND THAT DIXIE CHICKS ARE OUT OF FAVOR WITH A LOT OF AMERICANS.. I AGREE THIS IS WORST SEASON EVER..THE GUYS NEED HELP

If I was rich, I would pay AJ 50,000 or so to fly in and sing at one of my parties. He is an awesome singer with a kind and gentle spirit.

after AJ was booted off, I have lost confidence in the show. I mean, what’s going to happen….Sanjara is gonna end up the new Amer. Idle. Maybe. Personally, I think he is on the wrong side…

aj should still be among the contestants. How absurd to eliminate one of the best contenders. That guy had an amazing voice in that small frame of his. And what a great face…expressive eyes…great skin…voice…he had the complete package.

Yeah, AJ is too good to be eliminated. Can’t wait to see
Antonella and Sanjaya compete for the top spot during the finals! Who do you think will be the American Idol – Antonella or Sanjaya? Whew! Wattashow!

I have a feeling we haven’t seen the last of AJ. What a great talent!

sanjara stays and aj leaves….FOUL PLAY!!!

Sunjaya should have definetly been gone by now, he’s got a nice voice for a old folks home and is a sweet kid but not an AI. And come on Antonella what a joke I can’t imagine listening to her again this next week. America needs to vote smart not on looks.

did anyone notice how gracious AJ was when he was told he was going home? Not only can this guy sing, he has a lot of class!

jody, that was a great comment. Old folks home…perfect!!

I’m gonna miss A.J. He should have been in the top 12.

not “Feeling Good” over AJ’s departure.

I can’t believe that they let A.J. go home and left that little long haired geek that can’t sing at all on to the next level. Also Antonella should have left long ago with her bad voice and her major attitude. Lets vote for the right people America

Recount! There’s gotta be a mistake. There is no way so many Americans are afflicted with inner-ear problems…and bad taste. Give me a break…Sanjara over AJ. If it wasn’t so stupid, it would be amusing. But, too much of a fan to be amused. This outcome has put a damper on this season, as far as I’m concerned. Not sure if I’m even gonna tune in next week.

It’s a new dawn and a new day and still can’t believe AJ was booted off AI.

Ok. So Antonella’s steamy pix made it around the internet. Would it make a difference if she could sing? Point is…she CAN’T! I was also blown away that AJ was booted instead of Sanjaya. I am no longer excited about watching AI like I have the last 5 seasons. Voters…close your eyes and listen to the singing, not who the singer is. Maybe we can get it right next time.

no one moves me! the beatboxer is different and interesting. as far as some of the women that most consider good, they seem generic. sundance, sanjaya, antonella should not even be there is like a cruel joke that they are. you have to kinda feel sorry for them or just see how much more they can suck each week. that is pretty much the best part of the show this season-can those 3 get any worse!

There is a website that I can’t recall the name of right now that encourages people to call in to vote for the worst Idol contestants. It is for their amusement. That is probably why some of them are still there. It really is not fair. If thousands of visitors to that website are calling American Idol every week to vote for poor singers just to be funny then good singers may be out-voted.

By the way, I think the back up singers and band are great. I think a lot of back up singers are very talented. I didn’t like it when Simon told Melinda you are now good enough not to be a back up singer. She would have been good whether she got discovered or not.

I watched the past two seasons every episode, bought the music,etc. This season has me wondering what keeps Randy, Paula & Simon awake long enough to sustain the show. Most boring music and the finalists wouldn’t have made it in any prior year of this production. Look for ABC to drop it unless the producers do us a favor first.
It’s so “yesterday.”

Everybody’s whinning about who should’ve got cut and who shouldn’t have. Good and very talented people have been getting cut since season #1. I remember one season when Latoya London got cut and she was really awesome and I felt just like you guys and said, I would’nt watch it again, but continued to watch and made sure I voted. Sure enough, I noticed other talented people getting cut. I just came to realize that many people vote for everything else but singing talent.(Their friends, looks, race, and family members)It’s a popularity contest not a singing competition.

just watch ai cant belive the little twit antonella is still there also punjab is anyone out there listing to the singing or are you all deaf.first aj now these two stay dont think ill even watch the guys they wont be in the finals anyway.hi simom love you but the show is loosing its attaction !

Seems this charity thing is just to try to regain an audience. A gimmick to say how great AI is since show is going down tube

I think we all need to look back at previous years. Most of the true talent doesn’t show up till later in the season. Give these guys a break. Keep watching and I think you will see a better show.

This was the lowest in American Idol history. Did the viwers try to prove something to Simon tonight. This is a singing contest
I don’t even know if I will finish out this season after tonight. If we vote right! It’s A sure Sister Idol this year.

I can not believe sundance was voted off instead of that girl wanna be come on american wake up

I agree with the person that said something about some of the girls having an attitude they’re annoying and put off a bad vibe and need to go. Sundance should of stayed this week vs.smiley

I wont watch it again its a joke sundance GONE Its a mistake that leaves us to believe its ok to vote for some kid that had no business being there to start with I can find something else to do on Tuesdays and Wednesdays I think the only way it stops is to quit watching this joke of a show

Sick You are 100% correct

Come on folks lets all quit watching it his dad has to be a doctor or someone who is getting it padded lets STOP wasting our time

whoa dog! no more AI for me, not only do they waste my time with 5-8 minute commercial breaks, and then they turn to something other than a singing contest. It’s obvious who more than half of AI’s viewers actually are… the same group as the fans of the backstreet boys and nsync. No more AI for me. If they were smart they would change this popularity contest by taking a vote each week on WHO SHOULD BE VOTED OFF!!!

Ican’t believe this season of ai -
the worst.. again the gals out sing
the dogs you have sanjaya who can’t sing but the gals like and let sundance off. it is not a singing
contest but popularity/beauty contest. get back to the original concept.

I believe we all have our musical favorites. Yes Melinda can sing.She is fabulous. but she is not someone I would listen too. Haley, needs a little work and Simon off her ass, and she is perfect. I love her voice and her style, and THAT is why we vote for who we vote for. It is called AMERICAN Idol, NOT SIMON Idol or Randy Idol.

Lakisha Jones, can be the next American Idol if she cuts loose. She has what it takes and that is talent but I dont think she has the confidence she needs,Lakisha if you read this I just want to say you have it let it out just go for it .

Sundance rocks .. can’t believe he’s gone and the long-haired, no voice girlie man is still there. Come on America, get it right!

What is going on? Did America really vote to keep the no talents and send 2 of the best contenders home or is that someone simply can’t count?!

It’s ridiculous.

that was crazy what happened last night!! Don’t u think? Lol!

Sangina is a discrace to anyone who enjoys music. What the hell is america doing? I think Alcaida is voting….lol

this season is quite a disappointment. i am in agreement with many people on this blog. it seems unbelievable that they would vote off aj and leave sanjaya. i think he is getting the gay vote and votes of very young girls and that is what is keeping him on the show. come on people lets start judging them by their talent and not their looks…

i am in agreement with many people on this blog. aj should of never been voted off especially when u consider that sanjaya is still in the running. he is getting the gay vote and the young girl vote. come on america lets start judging them by their talent and not their looks…

America, have you gone out of your mind, Jared or Sundance could have stayed instead of this Indian girlie who dances hula.Sanjaya could have been axed since the first elim9ination. Or maybe America has quite a big indian voters for girlie sanjaya.
I’m not being racist but he doesn’t deserve, he himself was surprised, even the time of elimination between him and AJm tabaldo, he was pretty much surprised, wasn’t he? c’mon get rid of him.

I think AI needs to change the rules and be like “Grease – You’re The One That I Want”. That way when America screws up (like last night) then the judges can vote on which one to keep – the lowest or next to the lowest…maybe that way it can be a true singing competetion and not a joke.
Sabrina gone and Hailey still here? Boo
Sundance gone and Sanjaya still here? Double boo
come on America – get your head out of your butt and actually listen to the singers

AMERICAN IDOL PLEASE GET IT RIGHT
NEXT YEAR ARE THATS IT FOR ME. ITS
THE PAULA,RANDY, AND SIMON WHO ARE THE ONES WHO PICK FIRST GET IT RIGHT THE NEXT TIME.

People’s comments are mean… Life was never meant to be this way.. Do you know how hard it is to get where these Kid are.. NO!!.. Lets support them all….

I have watched the show since the beginning. I agee that this is the worst season ever! Who’s the blame. Simon, Paula, and Randy. They selected these no talent people to be the top 24 in the first place. They let some really, really, good talent slip by this year. They are why the show is so boring. With the exception of a couple of guys and about three of the girls, this show is a big letdown. The judges went more off of looks than talent this year, and that’s why this season sucks.

The racist and homophobic comments toward Sanjaya are not necessary. He should be gone, I totally agree, but his ethnicity and sexuality should have nothing to do with why he should be gone. His lack of being as talented as others is the reason he should be gone.

What can one expect when we have millions, most of them teen airheads, doing the voting. We all know that it is done this way to boost ratings, however, this year as in the past the “viewer” have been wrong more often that right. Indeed, it is a singing competition but it frequently turns in to a matter of style
Let the judges do the voting and eliminate the airheads. If they can’t keep an audience without the viewer voting then perhaps the show isn’t worth the effort. Good grief.

All the guys suck.4 women blow everyone else away.Everyone mentions Lakisha and Melinda(both great)but Stephanie and Sabrina(how the hell did she not make it)are both going to be stars along with Lakisha and Melinda.These 4 women bring me to tears every time they sing.Sabrina is talented,incredibly stunning with great presence.Has anyone else noticed Stephanie.She could win the whole thing.These 4 ladies will all be stars.

i really hate sanjaya he doesnt deserve to be there..he doesnt have what it takes to be the next american idol

How, oh how, does anyone explain Sanjaya being anywhere close to the top 12? The judges flat out told his sister that she was a better singer than him, and yet they cut her long ago. America can only vote for a good singer, if the judges leave good singers for us to vote for.

okay. i`m annoyed by the people saying that it`s stupid teenagers who watch & vote on this show. do you not understand – it`s those teenagers who buy the american idol`s albums? every singer in the top 12 is good, i`m NOT saying wonderful. & yes i`m a HUGE sanjaya fan, he`s adorable, sweet, & a nice voice. girls love him. girls will buy his album. end of story. now i`m not saying he`s the best, or even that he has a strong voice. but he`s NOT horrible – give him the respect that he deserves, he made it to the top 12.

on another note, the fact that sabrina left is absolutely ABSURD. she was AMAZZZZING, i`m not saying sundance wasn`t, all i know is i was SICK & TIRED OF HIM, he got old. & i think that`s what happened with other viewers. okay but HALEY STAYING INSTEAD OF SABRINA. yuck yuck yuck – now THAT was a mistake. big time, but oh well, life isn`t fair. she maybe a star anyways.

i think the top 3 will be, melinda dolittle, lakisha, & blake thomas. i`m a GIANT blake fan, he WILL be a star, noo doubt – he has everything & a little more. & melinda & lakisha will def. get record deals too. no doubt in my mind.

the end.

sincerely,
“a teen airhead”
as stated in an earlier comment, thanks. but we`re the one buying the music, to an extent. sorry, just get over it.

omg i cant belive sundance head got voted off he is so talented and can he sing i dont think america shouldnt be voting i think the judges should be deciding who stays and goes i loved sundance he has a beautiful voice freaking snjaya cant even sing he cant even dance,,,come to reality people …get a clue who sounds good..im so uoset this year about american i dol i miht not watch it no more if they cant decide who is good or not

Just want to give a suggestion about the voting on AI. The judges should choose the three weakest performers for the week and let the American public vote who should stay. In that way, the voting public will only think of 3 people to vote. Paging AI producers!

Ryan does say that people are watching all over the world….Indian people are like the Japanese and go crazy for American culture. I’m sure they are all watching in India and who do you think they will vote for. I do agree that it is mostly teenagers text messaging in their votes. If they are the reason Sanjaya is still there, they are ignorant. They won’t buy his album. JMHO

i think the show is going down the tubes

The show yesterday was a total disgrace. First of Sanjaya should’ve been gone about three weeks ago. Sundance is one if not the best of the male singers in the competition. And we all know this show is not all about looks because some of the past winners are not all that. Sabrinna should still be there and that girl, whats her name again? Well she shoul be gone. This competition looks a little like last year that it was a “keep the losser in and let them win” The show is becoming boring to say the least. Let’s just hope they don’t vote of Melinda or Lakisha should win this thing. By the way the guys really have no chance against this two.

“keep the losser in and let them win”. I like that. That should be the name of the show.

I think it’s soo stupid how this competition isn’t even based on talent! it’s on looks!! just highschool all over again!! you can’t sit here and say that Sanjaya was better than A.J that week A.J got voted off! and Did anyone happen to see the look on Sanjaya’s face when he got picked over Sundance?? i also agree that the judges showed pick the lowest performers of the week and then we should voted from among those! what’s the pick of having randy, paula, and simon, if we don’t even listen to there professional ears?? ugh..this show makes me mad!! A.J deserved to stay…

i think it is time for Randy & Paula to leave the show. Paula doesnt know anything about anything and Randy acts as he is an all knowledge god and is nothing more than a simple Bass guitar player. Simon is realistic and in your face. i think this show will be gone in one more season. the producers need to make this for 16 to 21 year olds that are not pros. get real!!!

I agree with majority of the comments here!I do want to say that people here are forgetting to give viewers credit. Even though everyone is dissappointed there can only be 1 winner. The recent vote offs would not have won the competition. America which for the past season’s have voted for some of the best popular talent will get it right again!I have confidence in the viewer’s and ultimately believe Simon’s statement that the winner could be the most successful artist from the show!Congrats to Carrie Underwood CMT nominations and Grammy’s she is blowing up the country music scene!I was a Carrie doubter but am proud to see her become the most successful idol winner thus far!

I truly believe the reason that Sundance was eliminated was due to his song choice. He heeded the judges’ advice to be original and that choice of singing was not what the majority of idol viewers’ want to hear.

I’m sick to death of all the trash being said about Sanjaya. Yes, he’s adorable but he wouldn’t be there if he couldn’t sing. He also comes across with less attitude than some of the others, which is good. Obviously enough people like him to have kept him there this long. I’m a middle-aged wife and mother, by the way, not a love-sick teenager.

I think Sanjaya is a flamer that wants to look like Michael Jackson. His sister was cute and could sing better than him. Send him back to Hawaii so he could be another Mahu on the island.

It appears I’m not in alone in my disappointment over this seasons A.I.
There is a terrible lack of singing talent in the lot. Lakisha, Melinda, Jordan and maybe Stephanie may have a shot at a music career, but the others will have to grab their 15 minutes on looks alone. I’m sad that Sabrina didn’t make it through to the top 12. She would have chosen a Diana Ross song that would have rocked the house. Talk about bad song choices.

Puhleeeese! Are you people who are voting for Sanjaya really that tone deaf and think he’s that good or are you just voting on him to be “***holes” like my husband said just to ruin the competition. If he was really an honest person he would pull out of the competition gracefully. I mean he’s already in the top 12 and will be going on tour with them anyway.

My comment is aimed at the judges, Randy drop the “DAWG” dawg. I’m damned tired of hearing it. Paula, your fired!!! You are not qualified for the judges panel. Simon, you should just go back into the closet because your a terrible judge. I still don’t understand why your on the panel to begin with, you can’t sing, you can’t play an instrument, and I sure don’t want to see your fat ass dance so what good are you. Do us a favor and fire yourself too. You aren’t worthy of being on the show. To be fair, I think the viewers should vote a new judging panel each season of the show because the current panel of judges just doesn’t work anymore.

HA ! sanjaya`s staying AGAIN [= in your faces. yes yes yes, i totally get it he`s not winning, but neither are the other people who are leaving. sundance wouldn`t have won, or rj. let`s get over it & support them.

& how about we not critisize the judges, come on. how low can you get, let`s stop being immature.

love,
“teenage airhead”
may i add, who voted for sanjaya.
[=

final 4 will be. ( not in order )
lakisha, melinda, jordin & blake.

Sarjaya needs to go! He is not a good singer and is not cute! This week, with that perm, he looked horrible. Plus he is weird, like Simon says. He is getting the Call Center votes (India).

Simon is the most honest judge. He tells the contestants what they NEED to know, not what they want to HEAR. After all when you are LISTENING to the music not WATCHING THE PERFORMER, then you will enjoy the vocal abilities of the performer. PAULA, cares about the feelings of the performers, WHAT DOES RANDY DO?

I think this season is a little short on talent. Melinda (who’s gonna win it all) is awesome and so is Lakisha. They are incredible vocalists. I love Blake, he is just not as good vocally as some of the girls. He is modern and original, and I would definitely buy his cd’s and concert tics. I love him. Jordin is great, a breath of fresh air. She has a phenominal voice (especially for a 17 yr old) and the best stage presence of them all. If she doesn’t make the top 2, she will still go one to do great things. I’m looking forward to it. I don’t want Chris Sligh to win because I would like to see his whole band get signed due to his exposure on AI. Half Past Forever rocks! Sanjaya, what can I say. He should have never made it this far. He is proof that America with their untrained ears vote based mostly on looks. Sanajya’s nationality is getting him alot of votes as well. I think it would be great for someone of his nationality to win, but only if they were talented enough to derserve it and he is definitely not. Let’s try to remember that first and foremost this is supposed to be a singing competition.

Siren – Profesional Vocalist

I think America is filled with crack heads right about now. I am so frustrated with the Americans that are keeping these no talent people on AI. Sanjaya should have been gone three weeks ago, instead America sends home Sundance and Sabrina. When did the compentition become a competition over looks versus singing ability? And that Haley Scarnato chick..she cant sing a note to save her life…..but…she is pretty..”you look wonderful” from Paula. So the bottom three this week were Brandon, P

I am so frustrated with Amercia right now. Im thinking that the people voting for Sanjaya and Haley must be to busy smoking crack or something…to know what they are voting on. This is a disgrace to all the American people who can hear talent for what it is, and not what they look like. I want to know when this competition became a competition based on look versus singing ability?

I have never felt so sad in watching AI until this year! This year sucks! Beginning with AJ’s departure. Until now, I can’t believe he’s out. After he’d gone home, I stopped watching the show. Maybe, I’d watch it again if Sanjaya finally (which is long overdue) goes home. America please…..

i honestly believe that melinda doolittle will be AI season 6 grand winner. you rock melinda!

Rudy was the worse-goofy, goofy and more goofy. Just not someone who should be on camera-EVER!
A.J. thought he was Lakeshia. Too feminine-every time the camera showed him-he was singing Lakeshia songs and doing Lakeshia better than she! I have no idea of any agent, produer or manager in Hollywood who would waste their times on those two. More American Idols disappear than stick around and while A.J. could sing-they are both not ready for any amount of fame.

What the hay is going on. Sanjaya is still in the top 10…. This is a joke. I thing we have people voting from across the ocean for their people. This is CRAZY.. I new this was messed up when he was kept and Sundance had to leave. I would not say, we are voting on looks… My gosh, I can not stand to look at Chris, and Lakisha and Melinda are nothing to look at, but what was up with the girl in the short shorts…. I felt like I was at a strip show…. She was doing more than flirting to get her votes…. Was that lap dancing or what!!!! I think Blake is the best performer this year… Let’s see if he can pull this joke of a season off.
Sharon

anyone with a dumb name like Sundance Head should get voted off. how retarded.

I used to look forward to the AI show, not any more. America have you lost your sense of hearing? Talent is ignored and the show is becoming a joke!!! professionalism from the judges are waning, Paula stop being emotional and show fairness in your comments. Leave out the words sexy and the comments on the clothes. As judges your comments make the voters defiant in their choises. Make constructive critisizsm the order and don’t make it personal. The best ARE BEING BOOTED OFF THE SHOW
and there is nothing to excite me and look forward to what is known as talent. Sanjay should go!! he is sweet but he does not belong in top 12, you have 3 good singers!!! It’s time for the judges to take charge and have another panel who sponsers this show to make a good decision based on talent and vote each week to keep the best. We are losing the meaning of talent!! if that is not there scrap the show and don’t waste time of viewers who look forward to seeing talent bloom in a positive way. Wake up America!! Talent!! Talent!! not looks or race. Simon! though obnoxious he speaks the truth and says it as he sees it. (Simon say it without insulting and personal attacks) you are a good guy and this is your show!!!

I suppose that Sanjaya thinks he is Michael Jackson for sure now with that little kid crying over him – how pathetic. He can’t sing, dance, or even dress right.
Give me a break America – have you all lost your ears and eyes? Get rid of him – no talent whatsoever
irregardless of what the little teenyboppers say.

No way should Stephanie been voted off AI – at least not yet. While she may not have became the next AI, she was definitely better than at least 3 that are still on the show – more likely better than 4 others. It is a shame what H. stern and his lackies are doing to this show.

I think everyone should vote for Sanjaya so he becomes the next AI and hopefully this show will fold. Simon Cowell takes all of you for suckers and he makes zillions $$$$ from the show each year.. What as AI given us (the viewers) over the years absolutely nothing. FOX needs to pay us for watching instead of making the producers and judges even richer.

At least with other reality shows (like deal or no deal) you can win money

Sad, sad sad. You probably believe that diatribe you spew. This show is free to us (get it – free) and doesn’t try to boost their ratings by doling out cash – which, by the way, costs to ‘text’ in your choice. This show is simply entertainment – and the cronies of H. Stern, voting for Sanjaya, has cost others the opportunity to go further. Talk about suckers…it is the mindless followers of Stern that ruin shows like this.

This country needs to wake up. What was , once a great show to watch- has changed. Simon- you are great- you tell it like it is!! Paula- its not a beauty contest- Randy- speak a language everyone in the country can understand. And most of all to the viewers- grow up and be honest about who has the talent, your voting is ruining a great show, hurting truly talented individuals and once again causing we as Americans to question – whats wrong with our country- I already know- its people- who don’t have a clue!!!!

I truly agree this years AI is a joke. They are keeping Sanjaya own and letting alot of good talent go. Might as well stop the show now and declara Sanjaya the winner. If he has gotten this far on his lack of talent and looks, then, it looks like he’ll go all the way. Once again the show is rigged.I’m thru watching the show.

Rolling Stone…listen to the blog. Change the name to reflect what it really is American Teeny-bopper Ido. And what’s the purpose of having judges if they don’t have the final say! We Americans aren’t the professionals here…the judges are! It’s a joke. Great singers are being kicked off because everyone wants to line their pockets rather than give great singers a chance! This is my last season to watch American Idol. It’s really gone “down the tube!”

WTF’ AMERICA SANJAYA SUX! COME ON!! I swear after this yrs AI- NO more for me and my Family– AI is nothing but a freaking joke– If Sanjaya makes it another week– Yeah something is totally wrong– If i were Sanjaya Id leave the show!

Sanjaya is a joke! An absolute total “NOTHING”!! People who vote for this clown are total asses, who perhaps think they are funny. Sanjaya is a joke to American Cultures. Get REAL you people under the age of 15.

i think sanjaya should get that ugly grind of his face and stop making those childish faces at the public. He is a menace to the competition. If he does not shape up they should kick him out

give me a break people what was once a good show to watch is now ruined by a no talent singer by the name of sanjaya may be people should use common sense and vote on talent that little kids crying because she likes him im crying because he sucks and is ruining the show if he wins its fixed and this is my last season watching it. Paula suck it up and stop crying stop telling people that sing like crap they look beatiful and charming why don’t you pay more attention to vocals and talent randy you the man simon I love it your the only one with guts who tells it like it is

This is the worst AI ever. I will tune back in for the finals. It is not worth watching if America is keeping Sanjaya and the braless chick

Melinda will win it All!!! but what is up with this guy who thinks he can sing???? Too many people out there tone deaf are WHAT!!!! Sanjahi shouldn’t even be there, What a JOKE…. PLEASE AMERICA GET RID OF THIS PAIN IN MY EARS EVERY WEEK. Melinda will take it ALL!!!! GO GIRL

oh my gosh……..HE is still on there ……YES I mean SANJAYA..Parents need to take away thier teenage kids cell phones cause it is these kids that is keeping this non-talent singer on AI…I cant believe it..everyweek i say I wont watch it again but I do have faith in America and know we can do better then this Sanjaya for our AMERICAN Idol….come on people………..

Stop hating on Sanjaya!!
He’s only doing what he’s suppose to be do…
try not get kicked off!!!

At least he’s leaving his clothes on!!!!

whats goin on with AI? is it american idol? or american idiot? obviously they want more publicity thats why they keep sanjaya onstage. but its very unfair for contestants who deserve to be onstage rather than kicked off the show. i thought this contests is for talented people, but its not what it looks especially this season. still, i would love melinda,gina and lakeisha to be on the finals. GOODLUCK LADIES!!!

I don’t live in America, so I can’t vote, but I still make it a point to watch the show. I’ve always admired this show–it produced some really good singers who’ll make it really big (Carrie Underwood with her 3 Grammy Awards including Best New Artist; Jennifer Hudson with her Oscar; Chris Daughtry with his #1 album and hit single; and Katharine, Taylor, Kelly Clarkson, Fantasia and the rest) but this season, I just watch with extreme disappointment with the way the votes are coming out there in America.
First and foremost, when A.J. got voted off over Sanjaya, it was really an upset…A.J. wasn’t the best, but he could certainly sing. Besides, he nailed it with “Feeling Good” that week and Sanjaya just bombed John Mayer. It was also probably because A.J. didn’t get enough exposure during the preliminary rounds, compared to Sanjaya. I really think A.J. could’ve been in the Top 12. Even now, in the Top 10, where Sanjaya, sadly, still is in. A.J. was actually my favorite. He was really charming.
Next, during the results night where you guys voted off Sundance and Jared over Sanjaya. Sundance sure messed up a lot of times, but if you guys could remember his audition, he was really good. Simon in fact, said, “I will be surprised if you don’t make the finals.” He didn’t. And that Pearl Jam song was great compared to how Sanjaya did. Sabrina Sloan was also voted off, and even if I predicted she would be the first out of the really good African-American singers to be voted off (if she was compared to Stephanie, Melinda and Lakisha), I still expected her to last until the Top 8 at least. Haley got in instead of her.
Brandon Rogers didn’t do well during Diana Ross week, I know, but you still could’ve kept him another week and booted out Sanjaya, who still, failed. (Haley did OK, so I guess she could’ve lasted one more week). Next, Stephanie Edwards was voted out over Chris Richardson during British Pop Invasion week. Both are actually good singers, and even if, no offense, Stephanie is better than Chris, Chris did well. In fact, when Ryan called Sanjaya, Gina and Haley up, I thought that was the Bottom 3.
Now he’s in the Idols Tour, I can’t help feeling a tiny bit sorry for Sanjaya. With a little help from everyone from http://www.votefortheworst.com, he’s still in and enduring all these criticisms from blogs and such. PLEASE DO HIM AND AMERICA A FAVOR and vote him off next week, no matter how well he does. Think of A.J., Sundance, Jared, Brandon and Stephanie. Haley can possibly go next, because even if she’s doing much better than Top 24, she’s still overshadowed by the rest.
I guess if it all works out, the Top 6, in my opinion, should be (in no particular order) Melinda, Jordin and Lakisha because they can sing REALLY WELL, Blake because he’s likeable, contemporary, and can sell, Chris Sligh and Gina Glocksen (remember her Celine Dion performance during the first week?)
I’ve been impressed with what’s come out of A.I., especially Chris Daughtry and Carrie Underwood. These are people I’ll actually buy the albums of. Give me “It’s Not Over” or “Wasted” over any Sanjaya song any day.
Eliminated:
Rudy Cardenas, Amy Krebs, Paul Kim, Nicole Tranquillo, Nick Pedro, A.J. Tabaldo, Jared Cotter, Antonella Barba, Sundance Head, Sabrina Sloan, Brandon Rogers and Stephanie Edwards. Please let the next one in this list be Sanjaya Malakar. You’ll be doing all of us, America and even Sanjaya himself, a favor.

Good grief, what a lot of whining about a television show. Someone said Randy should get rid of Dawg..yeah, gotta agree, he starts off each criticism with the same corny limited vocabulary dialog, but the three of them are a good cross section of entertainment. Paula is necessary, as there is no reason to totally annihilate the contestants as Simon does. I used to think it was rigged, but this time, even the judges seem surprised as the tone-deaf, talent challenged American audience, but only one can be a winner. If I had an interest in someone winning, I would vote for the ones least likely to win so the competition is weeded out. They got that far so all of them do have some talent. I watched the auditions, some of them might have just sounded good after the act they followed. Amazing how many people think they have a talent. If I had to follow Melinda I wouldn’t have any false hope I could be the next AI. I am sure they all know, unless America goes completely nutso, she has to be the next. I think that she and KiKi are the top contenders. Sorry, Brian, in another contest you might stand a chance, or some of you others, but not this time. If anyone thinks the best always wins, just remember Jennifer Hudson and tell me you really thought Taylor Hicks was the best of that group. He was hard to watch.

What a joke, to watch AI these days its like a circus of good and bad and the bad is getting all the votes, well what do you expect from a trump up show with little talent

I seldom watch AI but when I do its a three ring disaster with no end in sight. I pity the poor folks who have to watch few talented individuals and a lot of very bad impersonators who think they could sing.

this is not a singing contest. THIS AMERICAN IDOL WHATEVER IT IS. SANYAYA IS GOOD BY THE FAN SO VOTE whatever you like eh???????????????????????????

take a look at who’s leading the country…and you can’t understand how America can’t vote…WAKE UP!

it is really too bad that sanjaya doesnt get it they are making fun of him and i guess at that age you dont know what is real if he thinks he has talent i wondering what he hears and see’s somone should tell him

I just wanted to know if all the idiots who keep voting for Sanjaya are planning on buying his CD and going to his first concert(at a local karoake bar!). Get real people its not about you and making a statment its about the other people on the show trying to win a dream of a life time. something they truly believe in and you all are going to take that chance away buy voting for a person who we all know is not the best, well maybe besides his sister and his mother. people should stop thinking about themselves and maybe start thinking of all the other people on the show. grow up!

Come On AMERICA!What is going on?R we watching the same show,because this SANJAYA REALLY needs to go.This is ridiculous!There were others that really deserve to have his spot.R u tryin to prove a point because what supposedly Simon said.I use to watch AI all the time but now that it’s just a joke with this SANJAYA kid FORGET IT!This is the worst!He CANT SING!!So he’s trying hairdos to get the audiences attention.Simon didn’t like Taylor Hicks either but at least he can sing!There are alot of people that will no longer watch American Idol.SANJAYA is NOT an AMERICAN IDOL!Come on Simon get this guy OFF the show!!U have the POWER!!And MR JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE look alike!It’s not about the LOOKS it’s suppose to be about the voice!VERY UPSET!!!!

Sanjayia- what the heck???? Why is this guy STILL there? I find him Irritating overall. GO HOME!!

sanjayia needs to go. they have an india idol. go to the website and you will see he is in that class of singing. AMERICA don’t vote for him there is too many good singers getting the boot.

What is the show coming to its like it taken over be some type of outer world being. Some time soon maybe people will wake up to reality and vote for the best talent not who looks good on television

This is the absolute WORST American Idol EVER! Come on parents…take your little girl’s cell phones away so they can’t vote for Sanjaya…just because they think he’s cute…like the little girl crying the other week. GIVE ME A BREAK!! This is supposed to be a SINGING competition…not who the teenyboppers think is cute. And really talented people are being sent home! Haley and her braless, bouncing boobs and Sanjaya with his freaky hair should be GONE!!! Maybe Chris got sent home because the little girls don’t think he’s as cute as Sanjaya, but he can sing a helluva lot better. I think the judges should pick the bottom 3 and let America vote on which one to send home. What else are they there for? And Paula…PLEASE stop telling them how good they look…it’s a SINGING COMPETITION!!! America…start voting on sound…not looks!

My ears are bleeding every time I have to listen to the little twit, you know who I’m talking about. What a waste of time and good talent that’s being sent home because of this untalented person. America open your ears all the way and let in the noise, Sanjaya has to go NOW. AMERICAN IDOL IS CERTAINLY GOING TO GO DONE THE TUBES IF THIS LITTLE —HOLE WINS. I know I’ll never watch again.

No more AI for my family. We are fed up with losing the good ones that can sing and keeping the ones that show their boobs and the teenager with no talent. I bet if Gina had shown her boobs she would have not been kicked off. That girl could sing a rock song and I hope she still gets a record contract. As for the “joke” of the show-grow up boy – everyone is making fun of you. How humiliating for you and your family; of course, none of you probably have sense enough to know that though.

I think AI is the most ridiculus show I have ever seen this year. Everyone is right they are choosing the wrong people this year. They should pick the ones who have talent. Sanjaya should be kicked off for that so anoying voice of his. He makes my mirrors crack!!!!!

sanjaya is the crown prince,what do you expect when Aliens re voting him.American idol has turn to a comedy show,wont be surprise to see jim carey/Ben stiler next season.Am enrolling my cat next season,she’s gona make it

Okay first of all i am a huge fan of idol, but this year it’s irritating to watch. I agree with a comment someone left earlier about the judges picking the bottom 3 and then America voting, or even limiting one vote per household. I dunno this year is a disaster and they need to find a new way of doing things next year if they want to keep Idol running. Trust me i want Sanjaya and Haley to go home as well, it is a singing competition and America shouldn’t be so naive.

Sanjaya, Haley, and Phil must go NOW. YOU SUCK!!! This is the worst “Idol” season EVER. This is a singing competition not a popularity contest, and certainly not a fashion show. PLEASE, PARENTS, I BEG YOU: take the phones away from your little girls, for they do not know what REAL TALENT is!!!!!

REAL TALENT IS: LaKisha, Jordin, and Melinda. YOU GUYS KNOW HOW TO SING; HATS OFF TO ALL 3 OF YOU!!!

I agree this seasons Idol is frustrating. I did notice that Paula isn’t a seal as much. She is finally forming and offering critizism. Although the this weeks (latin w/Jennifer Lopez) judges were tone deaf. Simone’s comment to Haley was uncalled for and offensive. I can’t believe she wasn’t offened by it. I’ve been screaming at my TV this season like a total nut case.
Did anyone notice that Simone seamed uninterested or preoccupied. What was up with him looking around to the audience while when contestants were performing. I never noticed him doing that on previous shows.
Does Simone do that on all the performing shows?
Although, I understand why he does but it seems a bit rude, but he doesn’t care which is why he is so popular and liked because he gives honest opinion. EVEN IF IT IS HARSH!

I read all these rants, and while I agree that Sanjaya has stayed longer than he’s really been welcome, why is no one lamenting the deplorable singing of Phil Stacy and Chris Richardson? They are tone deaf, fashion wastelands who can’t sing and in Chris’s case, can’t even bob to the beat. They are wastrels and it is an INSULT to good singers like Gina that losers like them are still in the competition.

I am an Asian senior citizen, with no great voice but with two big ears for music. Those ears find great pleasure in listening to the voices of “ordinary-looking” Melinda and Lakisha. A plus factor is their coming across as having beautiful souls, too.

Sanjaya should show some class and excuse himself from the competition. It’s sad that others that have been voted off can’t say what they truly feel about sanjayas lack of talent. Now that would be entertaining!!!

qytkln dktywoxir onjh lsjhnak dhig owpchbkm yuexntz

Say “goodbye” to “The Boy Baron of Bollywood”, “India’s Answer To Michael Jackson”, “SANJAYA MALAKAR”!!!He should be lucky he ran this far!

Young, Sparkle in His Eye, Not a Bad Voice, just not the Best Singer. He had enthusiasm, the young girls liked him. I was entertained by him and what he would perform next. He clearly does has a place as a performer. He has a passion. I say “Keep Right On Singing” There will always be those that protest and those that protest because others are protesting. Follow your passion and your heart and you’ll give it all you’ve got. Don’t let anyone take that away from you. Especially those that sit in and voice their opinions.

I think Sanjaya should cut an album entitled, “Love Songs for Teenyboppers.” His looks will sell the album to this crowd for sure.

Sanjaya, Congratulations! You are worst then that retard William Hung.. tonight when i watch the rerun, I am elated to see that people voted you off because even my dog could sing better and not parading around with stupid hairstyles….

I was sooo happy to see SANJAYA aka Sheila kicked ooff its abotu time he had nO talent and for those who thought he was cute look again hes disgusting looking and doesnt even belong there on Idol sooo glad hes not on anymore i speak for many I know also

What is it about Taylor Hicks that have all these women (30s, 40s, 50s and beyond) madly in love with him? Is it that he’s handsome, goodlooking, a successful musical artist and free? I know other celebrities that fit the mold and don’t get swooned by such a range of women.

Nonetheless, some are old enough to be his Grandmother and I think they would really love to have a romantic fling with him, or are they just having a hard time giving up their youth and he intices something about that energy and passion of the soul that infects the ideal of what a woman wants in a man? Psycho-anlysis Anyone?

Just Wondering
