  • the blow has fallen on Lisa.

    i kinda agree with the bottom 3 this week, although IMHO Katharine should've gone instead of Lisa. Don't bash me now...I think her rendition of Christina Aguilera's song is no better than lisa's version of Kelly Clarkson. At least Lisa didn't go off key. Katharine visibly strained in high notes. What's Simon thinking when he said she's almost as good as Christina? She's not even close!!! But considering that Katharine has been mostly good (and well supported), then Lisa's probably the one who should go. Oh no, that's wrong...ACE's the one to go. I think his performance was so flat. Bucky's lucky because he picked the right song for him. So yeah...i think they got it almost right. I agree that Lisa seems to have lost her magic, the magic she showed the night Simon said "this is the night we'll remember Lisa Tucker."

    So Lisa's out...who's next? Paris? Mandisa? I understand that these two, while having the greatest voices, don't have as much fan base as the others. Honestly, I think they're more talented than the other two female contestants. If one of them's on the bottom 3 next wk, I'll stop watching American Idol.moreless

  • Just what I expected to happen happened and it should've happened last week.

    The behind the scenes look at their lifestyle was very nice, I always wondered what they did. The Ford ad was too short, but kind of cool. Shakira is one heck of a dancer, and since it wasn't rap, it was a pretty nice performance. Mandisa should've been in the bottom three, you don't go on American Idol and sing gospel! Plus the performance wasn't that great. But I agreed with Lisa and Katharine, but I thought Ace was the best vocally, even though every week I vote for Chris. Thank you America for getting this elimination right, even though Lisa should've been gone already.moreless

  • I liked it

    Didn't like the "star" show -- but then I'm prolly just showing my age. Didn't agree with some of the bottom three. Wasn't too excited by a thing.

    Lisa was probably the right person to go home. I adore her, but have decided she's more right for a broadway stage than a pop concert. I hope she continues on to greatness. She has it in her.

    I didn't think Ace or Katherine were the other bottom threes, nor were they the top. I'd put Kellie and Bucky down there. Bucky's voice is quite nice but he doesn't perform well and I didn't buy his version of that song. Don't see him as a virile, 'bad boy' type. Katherine has such a nice lyrical sound to her voice, and though her performance wasn't my favorite I prefer her to Kellie. Kellie chose a gimmicky Sara Evans song that works for Sara because Sarah has such a very nice voice. My husband's a Kellie fan, but I think he's buying the whole image. I'm not.moreless

  • Saw this coming.

    Well what did Lisa Tucker expect after butchering Kelly Clarkson's song like that?
    Simon was right, it was painful, and the majority of America agreed.

    I don't think that Ace and Catherine deserved to be in the bottom three (even though I am not a big Ace fan).

    Shakira and Wyclef were good. I enjoyed the song.
