I sure didn't....I kept thinking it would be like the Chicken Little guy last season; he'd stay around for awhile and then get cut.

Sanjaya sounds better than Chicken Little did, and I am not a Sanjaya fan, except he IS entertaining! On the radio this morning, they announced the top ten Sexy guys, and Sanjaya is number 6!!

Lol Hobbs, I am not going to say what my prediction is for Sanjaya outside of American Idol because I am sure I will be modded. But he might find himself very sympathetic to George Michael

Sanjaya - top ten sexy guys? He is a boy. His performance with oogling the camera gave me the willies. I found it very creepy.

Sanjaya's definitely making it to the Top 3. As long as he's smart and keeps playing to the audience (and doesn't do any more performances like this week where he just kind of "fits in", or [gasp] is better than most), I don't see any way he'll go before 3rd, and I'd say better than 50/50 odds he'll be in the finale. And that definitely should make Hasselhoff cry! I do think we're waaaay overdue for a "shock" elimination-- of the "IDOL IS RACIST!!!!" type that we seem to get every year. I'd be very worried for Jordin or Lakisha for the next few weeks. (although Melinda's getting so boring she may go soon, and it may not be an entire surprise) I'm thinking it'll be a Blake/Sanjaya finale. I think Melinda's losing steam, and no one else is really streaking. Jordin will probably either go home in the next week or two or make top 3, but will fall just a tiny bit short of making it to the finale. (which sucks as she is the only one left I genuinely enjoy watching every week)

I am guessing that Country Music will not be Sanjaya's stength...

If "playing to the audience" means looking into the camera as he has been, he may be in for a surprise. It didn't work for Constantine. And it totally freaks me out when they do that; even more so when HE does it.

Haley probably would have done well on country week. Oh well. I'm very close to losing interest in Melinda and if someone had told me that a few weeks ago, I would have been shocked. I always wonder as contestants leave whether any other contestants pick up most of their voting fans. Who will Haley and Gina's votes go to this week or do people stop voting? Still cheering on Blake and Jordin but Jordin doesn't seem to have a wide fan base.

That is true, this year. I don't see any of them as the least bit "country", I still enjoy Melinda.. I guess I appreciate someone with talent who may be a bit serious as opposed to someone mugging, leering, joking and trying to look like Prince (but withouth the talent). And alas, I agree, Jordin seems not to have the big enthusiastic voting fan base that she undoubtedly needs. I always thought sometimes fanbases picked up someone else. Not sure where Gina's would go, or Haley's.. I don't think Haley had exactly a youth vote, or not young girls so her fans probably wouldn't go to Sanjaya and probably not to Jordin. If they go anywhere (Haley's) it might be to Blake.

Melinda has been number one in votes every week. I would think Blake would be her top threat. I think that as more people get voted off their votes would tend to go to Blake more than Melinda.

Interesting point BIJ, I think you could be right (w/ Lakisha and maybe Jordin being exceptions) LOL Maris - Sanjaya and Britney. Or maybe Lindsay Lohan. Or JLo. Sanjaya is destined for the A list..

That is an interesting theory. It does appear that Blake is gaining support. LOL - AI reminds me of an election campaign or the primaries. The candidate/contestant doesn't want to peak too soon.

Melinda is still my favorite. In my opinion, she has never had a bad performance. She has a wow voice and I would definitely buy her albums. Same with Lakisha. It is a shame that their lack of looks and personality may derail two of the best singers ever on AI. If this happens, it shows that you czn't win on looks and personality, without a great voice (Haley), but you can't win without looks and personality, even with a great voice. Problem with this year, is that there is not even one performaner with the whole package. Jordan comes closest. She has the voice and the personality. But although she is cute, she does not have the kind of looks that wow. Isn't it a shame we could not give Jordan, Melinda or Lakisha, Haley's body and performing ability? Wow! What a performer that would be. LOL * Just a note to say that I personality do not have a problem with any of their looks or personality. I think they are all beautiful. But lets face it, they do not meet the generally accepted ahallow standards of beauty.

As someone who has critiqued Melinda's performances, I'd like to clarify that I am not influenced by the physical appearance of her body. I am influenced by her stage presence, her demeanor, and her overall performance. Her vocals are outstanding but as we've discussed, all we have to do is look at the currently successful artists (and Idol winners) to recognize that there is more to a performance than vocals. I am a big fan of Jordin because she has great vocals and combines that with enthusiasm, confidence and stage presence. The judges talk a lot about growth. We saw it with Kelly, with Clay and many of the other Idol finalists. I would love it if Melinda could work on these areas and I was expecting (hoping) to see that by this stage of the season.

Melinda or Lakisha should sing Dixie Chicks Not Ready To Make Nice or something by Shania Twain or Faith Hill.

LOL - All kidding aside I would love to hear Melinda sing "Not Ready to Make Nice". Melinda has a huge amount of talent and every right to be proud of her ability and accomplishments. I'd just love her to show it!

It makes me so sad to see that Melinda seems be losing fans even on nice forums like TVCH. I just love her voice and so hope she will win. It is a pity she is so insecure and unaware of her own talents.

I have always liked Lakisha. She has a depth and quality to her voice that she keeps in control.
