There's something about the caliber of contestants this year. I dunno. Not many of them have any real "star power." (And two that did are already gone!) While most of the Top 12 were "nice" singers, they just weren't impressive, or memorable, or worthy of being an idol. Dunno, but it's sad really.

Doesn't seem like many are totally into this season. Except for the 'tweens, who wet their panties when David A walks on stage.

The tweens also wet their pants over Sanjaya and boy did they dodge a bullet on that one. the judges may love David A but I am betting the recording company is lighting candles, saying novenas, praying to the ganga god that Jason prays to, that someone else wins this thing.

DA may sing like a bird, but I don't see him as having staying power for multiple cd recordings if he wins it all. His performances always feel a bit 'formula' to me, whereas, DC and Syesha really use the stage and 'perform'.

I'm still not sure what Jason does...

Did anybody watch David Foster on Access Hollywood tonight commenting on AI? They had him in the studio to do a commentary on last night's show, and he sounded kind of nutty. He told whatshername that was talking with him that he will never come on Access Hollywood again if Jason stays. As if they have any control? It was really weird.

Although I have grown tired of David A, I do believe given the right guidance, he could be a big hit. There is just no denying that beautiful voice.

Maris, He is that huge music composer and producer. He was a guest mentor this year, and also a couple years back with the blind opera singer, Andrea Bocelli. Remember he helped Bocelli mentor the kids and also played the piano for Bocelli's performances?

Jason should go home tonight - but, who knows. David C. is my fav still with the girl (her name fails me as always) a great 2nd. David A. is cute & sings "like a bird" but, I don't personally like him.

Between dress rehearsal, make up and wardrobe, photos, I think there are just too many people around them throughout "show day" for any of them to sneak a doob before the show. I think that is such a ridiculous assumption. I think the guy just let nerves get to him. As the woman in the Eonline article said (she was at the dress rehearsal and live show), she said he did great during the dress rehearsal.

Naja you are making an assumption that he couldnt have gotten high with the make up people, stylists, and you name it before the show. it is Hollywood.

I agree Naja. With all the handlers, not to mention the legalites of it all, there is no way Jason is smoking pot (or anything stronger than tobacco, if he does that).

<Apparently, I've been SMOOKING, since I typo'd. Just fixed it to "smoking!" <grin>)

Exactly Costa...And if you watch the "extras" at the official site, they have cameras following them through every step of their day.

eta: plus, it's pretty darn hard to cover up the smell of pot radiating through a building.

In the reader comments below the story that Naja posted a link to, someone says that she and her husband swore they saw Jason mouth "don't vote" and "no" when Ryan read off Jason's numbers to vote. Can someone check their DVR and let us know what you see?
