Just saw J-Lo perform the same song she did on Ellen, and she really tamed it down. It was just a bit too hot for Idols audience, I guess. Yea, Sharinia, I thought the same thing when I posted it. I am very definately old enough to be his grandmother. I have a definate thing for sexy music/singers.

Sherbabe, I actually didn't know the answer, first time ever, but I think you are right, I just remember that whoever it was, it was just awful. Because of Meatloaf, not the Idol contestant.

Why is it that Phil wears a hat every night? I really think it detracts from his performance...

I can't say that I am shocked by the result either. I liked Haley and found her entertaining but it's hardly a travesty that she went when she did. However, there are others that I would have preferred to see go first (Chris and Phil). It's an interesting season in the sense that Melinda (as the judge's said) almost offers a vocal clinic each week. I think the judges meant that as a compliment but I'm not sure that I see it that way. I don't want to just watch a vocal clinic. I also want to see a performer who is having fun, enjoying herself, feeling good about herself and performing with heart both before, during and after the singing. I don't get that from Melinda. Before anyone misunderstands me, I'm not in any way remotely comparing Haley and Melinda. The above are two separate thoughts. LOL – That AI final last year was plain weird. Kat singing with an extremely nervous Meatloaf and Taylor singing with (oops … can't remember who) but she gave the most peculiar performance of In the Ghetto that I've ever seen.

Why is it that Phil wears a hat every night? Because America is obsessed with hair as a positive physical attribute and Phil doesn't have any.

Chris Daughtry didn't have any hair and he did pretty well....but then again; Phil is NOT Chris Daughtry. When Blake wears a hat I think Mike Boogie and when Phil wears one I have the urge to straighten it (showing my age)

I can't believe Sanjaya made that stupid remark about J-Lo. Perhaps it will make people stop voting for him. It definitely wasn't "cute."

Did you notice in the group number they just had Sanjaya whisper the words to his song, they are going to give this guy such a pass to move him up now.

I like Phil but his hats bug me. The last two weeks he has worn them at an angle with the top of his right ear tucked into the hat, like he is trying to hide elf ears or something. Free the ear, Phil, free the ear... Sanjaya looks much better with the shorter hair, but his Constantine eyes at the camera are an immediate turn-off for me. I can see where the teeny boppers would go wild, though. I liked his voice in the auditions, then totally agreed with the judges when they said his performances were like "performing in the living room after dinner." This week I didn't dislike his performance (Simon is rubbing off on me, yeek!!!) Why was it so bad for Haley to show her legs yet nobody has complained that Lakisha has exposed her boobs every week. For Haley it was maybe necessary to her performance, but to me it detracts from Lakisha's singing and she's gonna catch a cold sooner or later...

I thought Phil wore the hat because of his ears. It looks like the people who are dressing him are cutting out the lining to cover them as much as they can. What was the remark Sanjay made about J-Lo?

A wee bit off topic but Roxip's post about [Sanjaya's] J Lo comment reminded me. There was a small blurb in our morning paper that J Lo and Marc Anthony are ending their marriage. I believe it was attributed to OK magazine. <48>

Cathie, speaking from personal experience, it is sooooo much easier to find clothes to 1/2 way (or even 1/4 way) to cover your legs, than to find clothes that will cover your bosom and not make you look like a bag lady. ;) Thanks, Wink.

Sanjaya: "I definitely hope that Jennifer Lopez picked up on my passion, and um, maybe I'll get her number later and we won't have to tell Marc Anthony about that. (One unintelligible word here.) We'll see." The last couple of phrases were made with eye rolls and "suggestive phrasing". I took it to be very tongue-in-cheek, a joke gone bad.

I thought Haley looked adorable last nite and wish she had worn that outfit to do her number on performance nite.

I have no doubt that it was tongue-in-cheek, but it was (IMO) poorly executed and not that funny. The googoo eyes just looked kind of dumb. By the way, I'm happy Phil lived to perform another week. I wish he would just bust one out next week and amaze everybody. I think he is a great singer, but I think his nerves really get him on performance night. He is always really good in the group numbers and when performing with the artists.

LOL, Grooch, I guess my experience is different--never had much in the boob department to cover but at 6 ft. tall I had a heck of a time finding dresses long enough when I was growing up (in the old, old days.) I don't think Haley has a problem finding something to cover up (I do think it was a planned part of her overall performance), just saying that Lakisha doesn't need to add the exposure to her performance, her voice speaks for itself.

Lol! Cathie. I understand. I had both problems. Buying pants was the worst. But nowadays and the way clothes are made, I'll give Lakisha a little more slack in the dressing department.

I don't think the show has done as good a job this season of helping the contestants look better...yes Haley has nice legs but I thought she looked better last night than when she's wearing those short shorts. This group needs a visit from Stacy and Clinton from What Not to Wear! Phil has a nice voice but all I see is the hat and Melinda may be pitch perfect but all I see is her outfit NOT flattering her body at all.

Next week (country) should be just as painful as this week.
