Well, maybe not unbelievable. But still wrong.

the fact that Blake is there is whats really unbelievable.... that what gets my goose...

My umpteen votes for Blake must have paid off!! :)

*ducking from the tomatoes getting thrown at me* :(

Melinda's dismissal was shocking, but I admit I was kinda hopin' for a Blake & Jordin showdown! I must admit I really enjoyed the final three- it's a hard decision! However, I choose Blake. He makes me swoon like a schoolgirl. :blush:

Poor Melinda. She had no demographic bump to push her over. Jordin got the dreamy stage mom votes. Blake got Ally, the tweeners, the Vote for the Worsters and, of course, the votes of all Opus-butted, knock-kneed penguins everywhere. Plus, Simon ran his mouth on Melinda's behalf and once again, America slapped him. It's so unfair. Well, as unfair as this stuff can be.

But what rattles me is that Melinda is actually really talented. But I am not sure if she has the aggressiveness to push for a big career.. Someone, hopefully Simon will mold her and produce her album... she will be great..

I see her singing with the likes of Alicia Keys, Aretha, Patti Labelle, etc...

Aw, man! I'm lumped in with the tweeners and the knock-kneed penguins? Well, it wouldn't be the first time. ;) :D

I agree with you guys on Melinda. She is incredibly talented, and along with Jordin, she had the smoothest most powerful vocals on the show. I really like Simon, but he does need to pipe down.

When I'm watching or voting, I'm most drawn to the person who's cd I might actually think to purchase. Not necessarily the best voice, but there's that extra something..some kind of "oomph!" factor that reels me in. Of course, don't listen to me- I voted for Justin Guarini. :D

Ouch, Ally, not the Guarini.... LOL:)

I'm sure Melinda will survive being voted off Idol. I expect her to maybe go the Jennifer Hudson route, and be a success in her own right. Just because you lose American Idol doesn't mean you stop being a success...as Chris Daughtry can tell you himself.

While I enjoy Blake and Jordin, I do have a soft spot for Jordin, and hope she wins it all...but if Blake ends up the victor, I won't be too disappointed. This is the best final three the show has had in a while.

Jordin Vs. Blake...

Who the hell cares..I am looking forward to seeing Paula with her face all bandaged.. She tripped over Tulip, her small dog..

Yeah, and Bush choked on a pretzel.

Yo! Ahh-ight, dudes...

I'm taking the time to post while scrambling to vote for Blake on all 3 busy phone numbers.

Some observations tonight....

*The show was kinda sorta okay. This season at its lowest point still completely blows away last season. I found last season so blah! I can sum up this season's excitement in one word: Sanjaya. I swear I can still hear the wind crying his name outside my window at night..:p

*I'm almost scared to vote for Blake! I think I might be a bad luck charm for Idol Contestants. Why? Because I voted for Justin Guarini. And Diana De Garmo. And Clay Aiken. And Katherine McPhee. Carrie Underwood was the only Idol that I voted for that actually won!

*The Time Machine that Randy is using to travel back to 1989 is way effective- he scored a lovely jacket for tonight's episode. I mean, WTF?!?! I am all for freedom of expression & creativity in the form of fashion, but c'mon, Dawg. You might be the last remaining escapee from the Rythym Nation. I think I even had that jacket in High School, but with less chains. Props on his necklace, however.

Back to dedicating all of my attention to my personal American Idol, Blake! :snap:
