American Idol, Season 5 **Official Discussion Thread** Part 2

[wdwgirl03]

I thought they all sounded great tonight. Surprisingly I got through a few times for Chris and Taylor but only once for Elliott. The phones were jammed for him. Go Elliott!

Yep, I voted the entire time and got through a grand total of 2 times for Elliott. Woo hoo, hope that's a good sign that he'll still be around for next week!!

 

[Michelle2]

I have to disagree with Simon. I think Paris was a tad better tonight than Katherine. I think the bottom 3 should be Kellie, Ace and Elliott.

I totally agree. I truly do not see how anyone can vote for Kellie after that performance??? But that is just me.....

 

[TexasCourt]

I thought Katherine was unbelievable!!!

 

[Ranatra]

Chris- Thought he was great tonight, loved it
Paris-Thought she did very very well tonight, her best so far
Taylor- so so for me, just not a fan of his voice at all
Elliott-Awesome. This guy can really sing!
Kellie-Didn't like it tonight at all
Ace-Nice to look at, but I don't care for his singing
Kat-Fabulous tonight!

Yep, I voted the entire time and got through a grand total of 2 times for Elliott. Woo hoo, hope that's a good sign that he'll still be around for next week!!

The same thing happened when I voted for Bucky last week.

I wonder what DialIdol says right now.

 

[LVSWL]

For once, I totally agreed with what something Simon said. It was what he said about Katherine. She really was incredible tonight. Completely effortless! Just perfect.

 

[Rafiki Rafiki Rafiki]

I voted for Elliott 27 times. If he gets voted off, it's not my fault.

If you get creeped out by him, just close your eyes and listen to his voice. It's fabulous.

The Saturday Night Live parody can be seen at graycharles dot com. Scroll down to the bottom of page. It's one of the last things on there. It's a hoot!

I thought everyone besides Kellie did really, really well. I even threw a vote to Paris! She deserved it I thought.

 

[wdwgirl03]

The same thing happened when I voted for Bucky last week.

I wonder what DialIdol says right now.

Oh great! Right now DialIdol has Elliott near the top, but then again last week it showed him as being safe and he was in the bottom 3!

It's not like I'm expecting him to win, but I like him! Get rid of Paris!

 

[mcr5298]

I tried to vote for Katharine for over an hour tonight and didn't get through once! I hope that is a good sign! She is my favorite!!!

Chris was also, HOT, HOT, HOT tonight!

Taylor was very good! I didn't know how he would do. But he did great!

I really like Elliott, but he seems to be losing his audience.

I am not crazy about Ace. But I think that Kellie should go home ahead of him for just being an idiot!

Paris was great! Finally a glimmer of what I liked about her in her audition. I'm not crazy about how her appearance and personality changes. But she does have some voice.

It's not like I'm expecting him to win, but I like him! Get rid of Paris!

They have Ace in last place and Kellie is actually ahead of Chris. I want to know who the heck is voting for her, especially tonight!

 

[Zippa D Doodah]

I have never given Katharine much thought, but after tonite I am totally on board with her. Here performance was by far the best on the show. The smokin' bod doesn't hurt either .

I am still pulling Taylor to win it all, but he was not the star tonight (see above). He was good, but not in Katharine's league.

Chris was just great. He is so talented and is going to make so much money. My only nit-picky thing is I wish he would stop cocking his head to the side and making puppy dog eyes all the time. A second stage expression in the repertoire would serve him well.

Ace- glad he got rid of the Terri Hatcher hairdo. But I still don't like the way he sings

I didn't think Paris sang all that well, but I do not profess to have any musical training or ability of my own to base that on. She just kind of bored me.

Kellie - That was so hilarious how she was trying to save her rear-end after her awful performance by sticking out her pouty lower lip and making big sad eyes. Her performance AFTER the performance oughta keep her around another week. I am typically a Kellie apologist, but there is just no good way to spin tonight's train wreck.

Bottom three (I hope): Ace, Paris, Elliot
Going home (I hope): Elliot
Going home (for real): Paris -in a shocker

 

[Mickey's sunshine]

Elliott: I tried several times between 10 and 11 PM (eastern time) and got through just about every time. Tonight was my first night voting because I do not want Elliot to go home!!! I am happy to hear that most of you could not get through -probably because I could, lol.

I want either Paris or Kellie to go home! I could live with Ace for another week.

 

[Nancy]

I could live with Ace for another week

I could just live with Ace!

He doesn't have to sing, or even talk...he can just stand there!

 

[Mickey's sunshine]

LOL, Nancy - I agree and I thought he looked pretty good tonight. (I not care for the hair greased back but he looked good)

 

[MeanLaureen]

Anyone else think that Ace looked like Kevin Federline tonight?

 

[dolphindan1]

I have to agree with most of the comments here about Kellie but I love her...I wish they would dress Kat up a bit like Kellie........she was bad tonight but at least she knew and admitted it....I thought that took guts to say in front of everyone I sucked tonight....I think her fans will forgive her tonight....I dont believe she will be bottom 3.....Ace or Elliott needs to go....I hate when Ace hits them high notes....and Elliott does not have a great voice.....Chris and Taylor and Kat were great great great.....Paris was good....Kellie probably should be bottom 3 but I dont think she will....Paris, Ace and Elliott bottom 3....I say Paris goes home but I want Ace or Elliott gone....oh and I kinda enjoyed the Paula mug shots ,thank you very much, it offset her babbling

Did anyone see Randy on Ellen today?....He basically said Chris should win it as did Ellens audience....I think it will be Chris and Taylor in the final 2....with either Kellie or Kat in the top 3....I am pulling for Taylor but wouldnt be upset with Chris

I probably voted for bucky 250 and it was busy alot. But i thought it was nice when Ryan mentioned him tonight. Sometimes when I would vote for bucky it would say the call couldn't go thru...wondered what was up.

 

[Pluto's Honey]

I think this a record. I've never heard this many good reviews in a row from Simon. This is scary.

This must have been his kind of music.

 

[Pluto's Honey]

At least you can understnd her, no southern drawl there!

Is there something wrong with an accent from where you are from?
