Top 7 Results

Paula choreographs the group performance! It was pretty good. I was impressed with everyone. I think the best dancers are Adam, Matt and Lil. Kris was too adorable.

Lil is eliminated. It was time for her to go. But Paula was right, she left with a bang. She performed her last song as a contestant well.

David Archuleta performs "Touch My Hand" The song is such a girly song. Anyway, he sang it well and he was so adorable with the attempt in dancing and jumping. Haha.

Anoop is eliminated. Too bad for Anoop. He started to be an early favorite, but he became boring. I love his voice though.

The group seems really close, I like it.

THEME NEXT WEEK: Jazz: The Rat Pack.

Top 7 again! | Disco week

You know that it will be a cheese-fest. Well, only about 3 performances weren't.

Lil Rounds "I'm Every Woman"- Her voice lacks so much power and depth. Her song choice was very obvious and I think it was very karaoke.
Kris Allen "She Works Hard for the Money" - I loved his song choice. The guitar intro reminded me of his Michael Jackson performance. Anyway, it was original and memorable. One of his better ones. I still think his best was "To Make You Feel My Love".
Danny Gokey "September"- I don't think his voice was brilliant. I don't know what was up with the judges. I think they are forced to say amazing comments for Danny. Funny and very irritating thing, when Simon said that his performance wasn't good, you could see his face that he disagrees so much. Eh.
Allison Iraheta "Hot Stuff" - I liked the arrangement, did not love it. Hands down the best female vocalist this season, OBVIOUSLY. Even if you place the ones who were eliminated already or belonged in the Top 36 at least, she is still the best female vocalist.
Adam Lambert "If I Can't Have You"- Another amazing performance from Adam. However it wasn't as memorable as "Mad World" and "Tracks of my Tears", it does make "Play that Funky Music" non-existent, haha. Kidding. It's not that I hated PTFM, I was just very disappointed with the song choice. What I really loved about his choice this week was he managed to surprise everyone by doing it slow. I laughed so hard when Simon said that he bet that Adam would sing a Donna Summer song. Oh and, Kara with "You look like the guy from Saturday Night Live... wuuuutttt". OH! I loved Simon's comment about his voice "IMMACULATE".
Matt Giraud "Stayin` Alive"- I don't know what to say. It was weird. It wasn't the worst, but I am guessing that after this performance he'd be in the bottom, but at least it wasn't as corny and awkward as Danny's.
Anoop Desai "Dim All the Lights"- BORING, still good voice. Nice look though.

My Top 3 (for this week, and for the whole season)
Adam
Kris
Allison

My personal Bottom 3
Lil
Danny
Anoop/ Matt

My personal Elimination
Danny and Lil

Top 7 | Songs from the Cinema & Results


Allison Iraheta "I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing"- I still think that David Cook did a better job, in fairness to Allison, she was good. I really like the tone of her voice, I'd like to hear/see her rock out again.
Anoop Desai "Everything I Do (I'd Do It For You)"- He really has a beautiful voice. He has a potential of having a powerful singing. I do however think that it quite boring.
Adam Lambert "Born to be Wild"- Adam saves the boring night by singing this song. I find him very entertaining and just plain awesome. I don't think he's screechy, hysterical yes, but not screechy. But, to be unbiased here... it wasn't as great as "Mad World", "Tracks of my Tears", "Black or White" or even "Ring of Fire".
Matt Giraud "Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman"- Very pitchy. I don't really like hearing the rest of the band playing with him. The piano solo is fine. An okay performance.
Danny Gokey "Endless Love"- The song choice is odd. I love this as a duet, and not as a solo performance. And I don't really like how he interpreted the song.
Kris Allen "Falling Slowly"- I was really excited when I read @Rickey.org that he sang this. I finally had the chance to watch his performance, and oh my, that was really flat at the beginning. It's such a hard to sing actually, very simple and monotony existed in Glen Hansard singing and the song's melody also. I commend him for choosing the beautiful song and for at least redeeming himself towards the very end.
Lil Rounds "The Rose"- I think it is the first time that I heard a ~diva~ on the Idol show (who reached at least Top 12) sing so out-of-tune. It was flat all around. I was shocked, and I think she should really sing in R&B style, without those runs. And a major turnoff, she talked backed to Simon. Wrong move dahling. I guess I can understand her feeling in a way, because she was always criticized by the judges for not picking the right song blah blah, but she shouldn't have done that.

My personal Bottom 3
Matt Giraud
Danny Gokey
Lil Rounds

Who should leave
Lil Rounds

RESULTS

Bottom 3
Anoop Desai
Matt Giraud
Lil Rounds

Received the lowest number of votes
Matt Giraud

He was saved by the judges. (After Simon said that he won't be winning anyway, what's the point of saving him?)
And I don't think he was one of the contestants who deserved the save.


DISCO NEXT WEEK, bleh.

Top 8 | Results

Delayed, stupid internet.

Frankie Avalon... my mom became giddy.

Oh my, the group performance was horrible BUT Adam's fabulousness saved the day. He was so... unf. He was hot during their performance, seriously. His outfit was great, dancing and singing of course. I was so jealous with Allison. LOL

FORD Commercial.. mostly Adam/Allison. Awesome. I loved his costume, obviously he went crazy when they were told it was going to be a circus.

FLORIDA- I did not watch it.
Kellie Pickler- Painful, as usual

Bottom 3
Anoop Desai
Scott MacIntyre
Lil Rounds

Out: Scott, but the judges were really considering to save him. :D
Aw, I like Scott. He seems really sweet towards everyone. I miss him already
Farewell video: OMG ADAM LAMBERT IN A JERSEY. Heehee.

Theme this week: SONGS FROM THE CINEMA with Quentin Tarantino as the mentor and Miley Cyrus as the guest performer. :

Adam! Do not disappoint. Don't do the "Play the Funky Music" thing again. Haha.

Top 9 | Results

*I have been busy with school, and didn't get time to blog the results immediately.*

Group song Journey's 'Don't Stop Believing' (ugh I wanted to sing that if I was in AI, I'd sing that during the finals!, LOL). The pre-recorded AND lip-synced performances are so bad. The only thing good about this performance was Adam, once again.

David Cook performs 'Come Back To Me'. He has a music video of it already, and it's much better than 'Light On'. THE KISS, nooo. :D

3 groups
1: Kris, Megan, Matt
2: Adam, Lil, Allison (Adam was such a gentleman, he held his hand for Lil!)
3: Scott, Danny, Anoop

Bottom 3:
Megan, Allison, Anoop

Lady GaGa performs 'Poker Face', her acoustic and original versions. It was quite entertaining Awesome bubble piano.

Out Megan, she makes a very rude remark.


Theme next week: Songs from the year they were born! Go 1982 (Adam) and 1985 (Kris)

Grand Ole Opry | Top 11


Michael Sarver- I don't get why this guy is still here. Sure, he has a good voice, but he is very boring. Very forgettable.
Allison Iraheta- Great energy, again. I am actually hoping that she can do a ballad or something next time.
Kris Allen- Oh dear. I absolutely loved this performance. His voice was just beautiful. It wasn't the perfect vocal, but it was definitely pure. Raw talent. That is why I admire the guy.
Lil Rounds- She was pretty good, but singing a song that was sung by Carrie Underwood amazingly, imo, is not a good thing. Carrie slayed that. Lil was making a point that she can also sing country, so shut up Randy.
Adam Lambert- HAHA. Speechless. It left me hot and heavy, and not really in a good way. I wasn't "violated" really. I felt a bit uncomfortable and well nervous when he was performing. Simon just lied! It wasn't horrible. It was different, but good. Strange, but good and interesting. I can't wait for him to sing ballads. This was not a ballad. HAHA. I still love him.
Scott MacIntyre- One word: Boring. Sorry Scottie.
Alexis Grace- I do not get the appeal of this person. I don't get her vocal ability whatsoever. She can sing, but her singing is nothing special. I think this was her worst performance so far, but I hope she won't go far. Stop trying to be "dirty".
Danny Gokey- From Hero to Zero. It was a bad performance. Stop pimping this guy. I dislike him even more. Voice : nothing special.
Anoop Desai- From Zero to Hero! Beautiful voice. See? And people say he doesn't have a good voice. He so does! Glad he picked a ballad.
Megan Joy- Much better than last week's. Still had pitch problems, but not to worry! She had the flu and she did a good job.
Matt Giraud- I love guys playing the piano/guitar. Well not all guys. Haha. I like Matt's voice, and his awesome piano playing. A potential winner, imo.

My favorites (ranked):
Kris Allen
Adam Lambert / Matt Giraud
Anoop Desai

Not so good performances (not ranked):
Scott MacIntyre
Michael Sarver
Alexis Grace

Who SHOULD be in the Bottom 3:
Alexis Grace
Michael Sarver
Scott MacIntyre

Who WILL be in the Bottom 3:
I'm guessing... Allison / Alexis / Michael / Megan

Who should go home:
Alexis or Michael
