I feel the same way about Sanjaya. Im hoping Haley gets the boot tonight. Or the alien....

I think Melinda deserves to win, but I'm not sure I buy the constant "You like me, you really like me" shtick. Remember, during dedication week, when everyone else was appealing to the red states by dedicating songs to their harelipped grandmother, Melinda dedicated her song to her two best friends, who, she elaborated, were her vocal coach and personal stylist.

I liked Phil a lot initially. He seemed smooth and at ease with himself. Now that's degenerated into cockiness, and he should go. But not before Haley.

Sanjaya has what Constantine had: the ability to play in a focused way to different parts of the house and also play to the camera for emphasis.

He also has this ambiguious manner, he is innocent and his smile and ways are not threatening. Little girls love him because he is exotic looking, mom's like him because he is a sweet boy, the gays like him because they think he is queer, and plus he is completely unlike anyone else in the competition.. the others are jello molds of other years...

but look how taylor sailed through last year, he was unique, his voice, his mannerisms, his hair.. its about being different.. everyone has gotten bored with the black girl, country girl, funky rocker chic, all american boy molds..

well see what happens..

Sanjaya snaps!

Sadly, we lost Gina..

My random observations so far:

*I love Blake. I really do. However, is it just me or does he always seem to shuffle about the stage like some sort of retro-esque robot? Not everything calls for beat-boxing, either. In fact, I'd be willing to venture most things don't.

*I love Sanjaya. From his makes the little girls weep hair & smile, down to his kick-ass Barry-Gibbs-called-and-wants-his-look-back white leisure suit. Every week, I wonder what he'll do next. How will he style his hair? A faux-hawk? The "Rachel"? However, I'm actually afraid he'll run out of shocking, kicky 'do's & then what? Boy, I wish he'd take the stage wearing Aladdin balloon pants & gold pointy slippers, whilst playing a flute and charming a snake out a basket. Or, fly over the audience on a magic carpet. That would be awesome. Keep on rockin', brother. Keep on votin', fanjayas!
