Our Fox station is out and reportedly won't be back until this weekend! Thank you all for spoiling. <Lurk, where are you going to see Taylor? We're going to see him in NH. >

That is just wrong. Steph should not be leaving and neither should Chris.

Ro...the little I heard he sounded pretty good. I got a phone call almost as soon as he started singing and even though I got off quickly he was done by then. Hopefully it will be online, if not on Fox then on YouTube. Boy that site has become SOOOO handy! Mak!!!!!! Hey you! It's like old home week here tonight!! Wish I knew you were going to see him, we should have made plans together (where is he going to be in NH?). I'm seeing him in Boston at the Avalon in a couple Tuesdays. Hope I can survive the show with my back (plan to do the flower show tomorrow or Fri so if I live through that, I'll probably live through anything lolol). And as for why Sanjaya is still there, just think of crying girl and you have your answer (well that and that stupid site that supports the worst idol). Lousy result tonight IMHO

Amen, Saxy...my thoughts exactly!!!!! This just breaks my heart...Stephanie does not deserve to go. Sure, last night's performance clearly had problems, no one is denying that. But She's been incredible thus far and had one bad night. There are clearly others there who are less talented and deserve to go before she. See above for one. On that same token, how come of ALL PEOPLE Chris R was in the bottom 3!?!?!? I agree whole-heartedly with Simon's evaluation--it was his best to date. I sure would have liked to see a Sanjaya, Phil and I guess Steph for lack of someone more deserving, with Phil or Sanjaya going. What the heck is going on in America? Who's voting for these people?!!? Ok, rant over.

I am glad that Haley is still there though. I've really grown to like her, I think she's improving, and last night I thought she really shined. Good for her!

I saw an opinion that TPTB very much wanted Sanjaya on that tour.. all those teeny boppers in the audience. Makes sense from their perspective. And all the moms who have to come with the younger girls too.

Totally agree, now that you mention it. I have always noticed that the judges seem to manipulate to get their desired top 10 for the tour. Let's face it... Sanjaya will sell a lot more tickets than Stephanie

My sister and I were discussing that very thing. From watching the 60 Minutes interview, Simon isn't as interested in finding the best voice as he is the person who will sell the most records, I would assume he would be happy with this result...

Our Fox station said that the top 12 were touring. If it is true, it would mean that Brandon and Stephanie would also tour. That would be very nice.

One of the biggest downfalls at this stage of the competition is being very good but not being distinctive enough to find a fan base. That said, I would have much preferred to see one of the guys leave ahead of Stephanie. I am happy that Haley has managed to survive to the top 10. She gave a fun performance last night and so did Sanjaya. I think that Sanjaya will sell a lot of tickets on the tour. It will be interesting to see what his style is like next week. As far as the judges are concerned, if they put people through, they can't whine too much about how they perform once they are through. Plus as was said earlier, Simon just wants to sell tickets and Sanjaya will do that. I heard the top ten tour. I hope it is the top twelve. It would be very disappointing to finish 11th and miss the opportunity.

I wonder why they don't let #11 and #12 tour (or haven't in the past). Doesn't make any sense to me....

wheeew! I thought I was the only one that thought Chris R. was bottom 3 material. I never thought for the life of me he would be in the bottom two, because of the lovefest that goes on around him, but I don't get the appeal alot of people have for him....and loved seeing him realize he was this close to leaving. I would have loved to seen him leave over Steph...you know why? Cause Steph is actually good. I watched Jordin's performance again from last night...and I think that is one of AI's best ever. I'm really dumbfounded that she didn't get more praise and I can be happy if her or Lakisha wins. Look...maybe I am wrong about Melinda...but I never said she was a bad singer...I never said she was untalented, nor did I ever say she wasn't sweet. All I've ever said is that *I'm* not smelling what she is stepping in. That's all. :D Now to knock Blake down a peg or two.

Ouch! Nick you are stepping on my faves there I thought Jordin was really awesome last nite, fwiw. Chris R was always overrated in my book, but he improved this week, so I felt bad for him landing in the bottom 2. The judges were pleased, the crowd cheered, and he is probably totally confused now. I didn't think so initially, but must admit I think Chris R is a cutie now. Not in a hottie sort of way, but he seems sweet if you watch the way he interacts with the others.

There was an interview with Brandon Rogers this morning on KISS-FM here in DFW (he's friends with Kidd Kraddick) and I heard Brandon say he's not doing the tour.

No doubt that Lakisha and Melinda are talented but Jordin is by far my favorite. I love her youth, talent and exuberance!

Is it just me, or does he look like he could be Mike Boogie's little brother? And he's got the arrogance to boot! lol I like him though...he's got a little something extra that's quite appealing. I think he'll do well.

You are not alone Bandit, but personally I don't see any resemblance between Blake and Mike Boogie. To me that is like saying that Sanjaya looks like Kaysar. My hubby always says that Blake reminds him of Sting.
