Lost, that is like me with Jordan. I was totally turned off by him when he was picking who was good enough to sing with him during the group competition. I am sure his lack of votes were due to his arrogance.

Maris, I agree Jordan gave off an arrogant vibe. I remember Scotty was one that he turned down for the group performance and Scotty is a fan favorite. It didn't look good for Jordan.lol

Since I really do not Naima, they will pick her. I think that Kendra did the best of the girls. All the guys were better than the girls. JMO

Well, she kept saying she gets it from JLo. She certainly is a diva as Naima appears to be also. Blech

Oh well, we lose some and we win some. Naima & Ashton were not in the top 5 so many they will go early on. One can hope, can't one. I think the only true judge iis Randy, JLo is too mushy and soft on everyone and Steven loves everyone. Randy tells it like it is. He's a little softer than Simon, but truthful.

Not thrilled by the female Top Five-Six. I would not have choosen 4 of them. Was bummed that Lauren T. and Kendra didn't get in, even Rachel Z. for some interest. I like Ashthon better than Naima. I'm just not into that chick. Haley is meh. Happy that little Thia got in The guys are about what I expected and have to say that are not a bad group in the end. I certainly like them better as a group than the girls. If the judges have another "guy's year" on their hands, they only have themselves to blame.

I like the original top 10, thought Kendra was better than both girls that got in, I wanted Julie. Glad that Stephano made it and wish they had chosen 2 guys instead of 2 girls. I don't think it matters who gets the wild card spots, the 2 girls will go fast and Stephano may grab the young girl votes. I think there were a lot of good singers this year and the judges had a hard job. I love the diversity in the singers, I think this year's voting will be based on your preference of genre rather than who you think is best for the average voter. Very few people have the ear to choose by talent.

I totally don't get the Pia love. She's mediocre at best.

We've had some bad performers that got through in past seasons but I think all of these people are pretty solid. Not too happy with the wildcard choices but there are none there that I can't stand like in some years. We'll see.

I would have preferred Robbie over Naima, but otherwise I like the top 13. Maybe some of the girls were a bit interchangeable. I wonder if some of the guys who were out of the top 10 (I think maybe Stefano) were higher than some of the girls who got in the top 10. Or vice versa.

I was happy dialidol was wrong in many cases. I also figured Naima would but shoved through by the judges and I just don't like her.at.all. Not thrilled that James went through but not sure who would go in his place for me. I'm sort of underwhelmed but now we'll see them compete I suppose.

I'm with Jimmer, I like the "Top 10," not too crazy about the wildcards - especially Ashthon. I can't believe the live show is going to start next week because in the past they have always dragged out getting to the Final 12 for weeks.

We too are pretty happy about the Top 10 but didn't quite get it for the wildcards. Probably most surprised by Ashton and disappointed about Jovany.

Interesting group. I am not an avid watcher any more....but I will always be thankful to American Idol for giving us Clay Aiken. Good luck to all this year.

Based on the reaction of the judges after Ashton's performance, I was shocked they put her through. I'm not fond of her diva attitude. I think I would rather have seen Julie get another chance. Naimi has a beautiful voice for Broadway but I can't picture her singing something current.
