We knew it was going to happen, but still. Lee Dewyze? Disappointing. Oh, yeah. And Simon’s leaving. And Paula was there. And there was a medley of Chicago songs. And Xtina. And some other people.
Bring on America’s Got Talent!
Each contestant sang three songs. They picked their favorite song of the season, sang a song chosen for them by Simon Fuller, the Executive Producer, and performed the song that will be released as their single if they win. Which, this year, for the first time, won’t be some awful dreck written for the winner, who will be forced to record it and release it to a disappointed public.
What were her favorite performances?
Who’s going to win it?
And we just have to see Crystal sing “Up to the Mountain” again.
Which leaves us with Crystal Bowersox and Lee Dewyze to duke it out next week!
Natalie was very excited. See? Look how surprised she was when Casey was eliminated.
If the judges aren’t trying to get rid of Casey, then tell us why they gave him a John Mayer song. And not just any song, but the most boring John Mayer song ever. And that’s really saying something.
And if the judges aren’t trying to make sure Lee wins the season, then explain why Simon got to choose his song, coordinate the arrangement, dress him like a preacher man, give him halo-esque backlighting and a heavenly choir! Huh? Explain that, America!
Natalie was NOT happy. See?
The good: 5.19.10.1.American Idol Top 3 Best
The bad and the ugly: 5.19.10.2.American Idol Top 3 Worst
Naturally, we loved Crystal: 5.12.10.2.American Idol Top 4 Best
And kids, Curly Sue needs to go home. Seriously. Stop it. 5.12.10.3.American Idol Top 4 Worst
This week we loved Lee and Mike, Crystal was just okay and Curly Sue needs to go home. SO does Aaron. But what does our Listener Panel of Judge, Natalie, think?
Just look at her. Isn’t she darling?
Anyhoo, on to the judging.
Who was fab? 5.05.10.2.American Idol Top 5 Best
Who was not-so-fab? 5.05.10.3.American Idol Top 5 Worst
Curly Sue finds himself in the bottom three once again and we’re pretty sure America plans to get rid of him next week, but last night it was Cinnabon who sang her swan song. Also, we are baffled by America’s continued love for little Aaron. *SIGH*
Natalie’s Faves: 4.28.10.2.American Idol Top 6 Best
Who was weak? 4.28.10.3.American Idol Top 6 Worst
Teflon can’t stop everything from sticking.
Notorious mobster John Gotti learned that when he finally got convicted. And last night, Tim Urban, the young Texas singer with the wide-eyed smile and floppy hair, learned that when his luck ran out on “American Idol.”
The 20-year-old college student, who earned the nickname “Teflon Tim” because of his amazing ability to survive week after week of flat performances and brutally harsh criticism, saw his unexpected journey towards the top several spots of this marathon singing competition come to an abrupt end after an elimination show that stretched about 20 minutes over its scheduled two-hour time slot.
In case your DVR cut out on you last night, you now know that season 9 will continue on without Zac Efron Tim Urban in the Top 6.
