Official American Idol Season 4 Thread

I really hope Anthony is the next to go. I can't stand him. After he and Nikko go, I'll be stumped as to who I can let go. I'll be crushed when Constantine gets the boot.

i am SO glad mikala left. i hated her.

 

[Amberle3]

I'm a little surprised that Nadia was in the bottom group, but I guess if it was based *just* on the last performance then I kind of agree with it. That was definitely not a good performance for her.

Overall she's a better singer than many of the others that are left, but that last one just left me cold. Actually I considered muting the TV during it. Which really surprised me, because I really like her.

 

[korzmom]

why do they let the losers sing again???theres a reason they're voted off! ugh, I'm glad shes gone. surprised nadia was the other one,she had 1 bad performance but then again I can remember when RUBEN was in the bottom 2....deja vu???

 

[ShuisFan584]

But honestly, all of them are MILES ahead of ALL of last year's contestants, including the winner, imo!

I definitely agree with that! I was shocked when the judges said that last year's contestants were the best they've had so far, because I still think they're the worst! There were only a few people that I liked, where as this year, I like most of the contestants, so I'll probably be upset almost every week when one of them goes home.

And I have to say that Mikalah definitely did handle herself with class tonight after finding out she was going home. She has such a great personality and I think she will make it far because of that. I can definitely see her becoming an actress.

I'm upset to see her go, but the same as what happened to John Stevens last year, I'm kinda happy to know that she won't have to deal with anymore bashing. At least I don't have to keep reading about how much people "hate" her, which IMO is going a little too far, because hate is a very strong word, especially for someone you don't even know.

 

[damo]

Oh, I definitely agree that this is the best top ten ever!

How could Nadia have landed in the bottom two??? Was the hair really that bad that no one voted for her? I think she's the strongest girl and it's too bad that slipped that far down just based on one performance.

I think the amount of talent this year has so much to do with it. The votes are being so evenly split that 1 bad song might be the end. I usually like Nadia, but it was not a good night for her.

 

[disney4us2002]

I really wonder if Nadia should've really been in the bottom 2 or was this just a stunt for added drama to hype up the show??? Hmmmm......

I have always wondered if they are legit when the give the lowest three. Really, how would we know? They don't publish the results that I've ever seen anyway. It's certainly a possibility that the producers throw in a few faves to boost their fan base to vote more the following week. I'm not a huge fan of Nadia's and I thought she seemed quite annoyed to be in the bottom 3 by her body language but I do wonder if she really got the 2nd lowest number of votes.??

Can't you just see an expose 10 yrs from now saying the voting results were fudged? It's like Quiz Show all over again.

NO... votes are tallied and certified by Price Waterhouse. Nobody is faking voting numbers.

Becuase they hire an independent firm to confrim the votes. In this day and age you don't tell that kind of lie and get away with it.

I guess y'all like a conspiracy theory.

 

[grinningghost]

Nadia will no doubt pull herself back up next week. Even the best singers have an off night. That was hers. I suspect Anthony may be the next to go.

I completely agree. I also wonder how far Scott and Nikko can go. I like Scott but I wonder how much he appeals to the public.

 

[Cindy B]

I have to admit it looked pretty obvious for Mikalah. I don't know how harsh it sounds that all four of us were cheering..


I think the next to go will be Scott or Anthony.

Its interesting here in Philly there isn't much local news on Anthony. Yes, Trevose PA is technically a Philly suburb, but I don't see much news press on him. Is he really not that interesting?

I knew Anwar and Vonzell were going to be ok... although this is the third week they have done this to Anwar. (kept him hanging on)

Ok, now we have to comment on the Ford commercial. It was pretty dumb. My kids LOVED it though. We had to Tivo it back for them. It reminded me of the 1980's The Cars videos, where the members of the band are realy small and everything else is HUGE! (You might think is one of the videos).

Only Bo and Vonzell on the commercial didn't have the "this is really stupid look" while doing it. And the He Ain't Heavy, he's my brother was pretty bad too. Did you all notice that Mikalah had a very tiny part in the song? I said to my DH "She only got one line in the song, she's going tonight". Everyone esle got 2 or 3 solos.

He's right, there are federal laws against fixing any type of game show which includes AI, Survivor, Amazing Race etc...

 

[palmtreegirl]

As far as Nadia being in the bottom 3 it didn't surprise me. She has done so well in the past few weeks that people might've felt she'd be safe and didn't bother voting for her as much.They instead voted for people that they felt were threatened to be eliminated like Nikko, Scott or Anwar.

Also this week Nadia's performance was weak so she probably didn't inspire many new voters either. She basically fell through the cracks, it happens at least once every season, I think even Ruban was in the bottom 3 one time. And remember Tamyra's surprise departure, leaving Nikki safe?

Nadia will rebound big time because now people won't take for granted that she's safe and in a way she's lucky that this happened early in the competition.

 

[totalia]

So glad Mikaylah's gone.

I think the next to go will be Scott, or Anthony.

I agree - I am glad to see Mikalah go. She has such a whiny nasaly voice - it reminds me of nails on a chalkboard! I don't think she should have made it as far as she did. Especially after she stopped being "herself". She tried a more grown up image, & it just doesn't work for her. I think Scott will be the next to go.

My top two picks are Bo & Carrie.

 

[eeyore0062]

It was time for Mikalah to go home. Her poor voice just couldn't hack it anymore... and I don't think many of the fans could hack her anymore, either.

I am also surprised that Nadia was in the bottom 3, but not that Anthony was. I think that if Nadia pulls herself up next week, Anthony will go.

My prediction is the winner will be Bo... may be too early to make that prediction, but that is mine, which doesn't agree with who I would like to see win, which is Anwar.

Carrie, Bo, Constantine, and Anwar will definitely be in the top 5. I am also rooting for Jessica and Vonzell.... they are Florida girls!

 

[calypso*a*go-go]

I wish they would come up with a dynamite new song for Bo and Carrie to do as a duet. I think they would sound really great together.

AHHhhh.... my two favorite singers!! Bo and Carrie! That would be nice to hear them sing together as a duet. I would love to see them make it to the top two finalist!!

Glad to see Mikalah go, it was her time. Next... my prediction would have to be... Anthony or if not then Scott. They need to go.
