I agree Sea.... I am worried about Stephanie and Sabrina. They are among the most talented singers AI has ever had. They so deserve to be there.

I'm not worried about Antonella being in the top 12... even if she doesn't go home tonight, they'd just kick her out for the photos and replace her with one of the girls that do. All the previous replacements have happened at a milestone, either before the top 24 or the top 12. When her pics showed up they couldn't pull her out right away, because it would have been to hard to replace her in the middle of the top 24 rounds. Mark my words, she won't be on stage next week, no matter what happens tonight!

Interview with Sundance on Ryan's radio show this morning. The most interesting point is that he says one of his male co-contestants arrogantly thinks he has the win in the bag. He won't say which, but there are polls all over the net asking who "we" think he may be talking about, and Blake is in the lead for the answer. http://www.aolcdn.com/tmz_audio/0309_idol_sundance.mp3

I think it is either Blake or Chris R. They both seem a bit full of themselves

I think it is likely to be Chris Sligh.. like last night he sort of condescendingly said something to the effect that he really should say he was nervous, meaning he fully expected to move forward.

I agree Sea, I actually think I might enjoy watching him get the boot, I know Simon will have a grin.

I know this has nothing to do with anything here, but the front man Brad Delp of Boston was just reported to have died. I know many of us over 30 own the "album" with "More than a Feeling" on it and may be sad like I am. He was only 55.

Here's a listen to show people who don't know what was actually just lost. http://home.comcast.net/~naja3/mtaf.mp3

<< one of his male co-contestants arrogantly thinks he has the win in the bag>> Clearly this has to be either Chris S, Blake or Chris R.... I actually don't think it is Chris S. He looked really worried the other week after making the teletubbies remark to Simon. I don't think he thinks he is invincible. I *hope* it isn't Blake cause I really like the guy. Though he does appear pretty confident, so can't say it would shock me. So that leaves Chris R. I almost couldn't blame him the way the judges keep telling him he is da bomb, best of the night, doing everything right, etc. And anyone notice the way he was grinning when Carrie Underwood was singing?? Like he was identifying with her and thinking he would be next.

23 MB WMV report at MSNBC tonight....one of the better reports. http://www.sendspace.com/file/4lp6sl This is a REALLY good idol report, about 6 mins long...scroll down to the tiny download link at the bottom middle in tiny letters if you don't know how to use sendspace. It was sad it looked like 3 or 4 people showed up for Frenchie's protest, and she wasn't even one of them ;/

Here is the kind of song I wish Sanjaya (My fav guy) would sing. Somthing up-beat and not from the 60's. Something like this from the late Jermaine Stewart. http://home.comcast.net/~naja4/clothes.mp3

Naja, thank you so much! We were in the car earlier and I switched from a cd to my classic rock radio station. The dj was in the middle of talking about Brad Delp but we had switched over after he started and he never mentioned the name again. He (the dj) was really choking up about it but we had no idea at the time who he was talking about.

I'm not quite sure where to put this. Earlier there was a discussion about when the show dresses the contestants. There was a piece on Fox News Channel where they were interviewing the behind the scenes people at Idol. They said in the past they didn't dress the contestants until the Final 12; however, this year was the first time they started dressing the Final 24.

Yes Naja thanks for posting that. One of my favorite songs from that era. It's sad to hear that - 55 is too young.

If any of the contestants think they've got the win, I think it's Chris R. With all the fawning over him by Paula and Simon, I think he's probably getting his ego swelled to supersize. And honestly, I don't think he's that great (or hot). I definitely don't think it's Chris S. I think he's got some insecurities, particularly around his looks, that would preclude an arrogance. I think he did think he sang well this past week, and I think he knows there are worse singers (Sanjaya for one), so I believe he thought he'd be safe this past week but didn't wanna say it because it might be construed as conceit. He does seem to be humble under most conditions. I also don't think it's Blake. I think Blake knows that he's different enough that he may not win even if he does make it to F2. He's just not mainstream enough (I'm willing to bet there are a lot of people who never heard, or heard of, beatboxing before seeing Idol this season).

Naja, I too was surprised to hear of his death. My niece sings with them and I was trying to place him. I saw them a couple of years ago. I had heard they might not be touring this year because one of them was sick, but I thought it was Tom. I remember Brad now. Here's a pic I found of the group and I love it. I'm going to enlarge it and print it. http://classicrock.about.com/od/a1/ig/Boston/bostonc_1.htmg Back on topic, I like Haley and it's probably because of that website (Vote for the Worst)that she was saved, but I'd like to see how she progresses. I sure hope it's not Blake who thinks he's got it in the bag. He doesn't do anything for me. I too love Jordin and would buy her music. They said in the past they didn't dress the contestants until the Final 12; however, this year was the first time they started dressing the Final 24. Ahah! It was me that brought up someone dressing the girls. Thanks for that info, Lexie_girl. You're on the ball!

If you don't think you are going to win the competition you shouldn't have entered in the first place, right? So asking Chris S whether he thought he was safe was kind of ridiculous...you never ASSUME you are safe but you have to be pretty darned confident to get up there on stage in front of millions of people and sing. If he had said he wasn't safe then Simon would probably have skewered him. I think Ryan's time has come and gone...he is getting really lame...and I'm so sick of hearing him and Simon bicker. Get a room for goodness sakes!
