American Idol 6: Results Show March 28, 2007

Tomorrow's headline will certainly read: "Sanjaya Safe Again."  That guy has really caught the imagination of America.  Amazing. . .  Take Scott Savol, John Stevens, Carmen Rasmussen, and Ryan Starr; mix them all together; add water; and you'll get Sanjaya Malakar.  Amazing!  (Most people would mix in Kevin Covais or Jasmine Trias, but I don't think either of them was that bad.  . . . actually, come to think of it, I was a moderately big Carmen fan in season two.)

Tonight's Show, short and to-the-point:

• No group song tonight.  I didn't miss it.
• Ryan called out two of the bottom-three: Phil and Haley (and then Ryan called Haley "Stacey".  (Isn't "they call me Stacey" a line from "Fergalicious"?))
• Gwen Stefani sang a song.  Last night got me to watch a few of her music videos.  I like that "Wind me up" song.  -"Spider Webs" is my favorite No Doubt song.
• Chris Sligh joined the bottom three.
• Chris Sligh was sent home.  He was one of my picks for the final two (along with Melinda.)

Thoughts:

• I thought Phil was the best last night.  He was in the bottom three.  Seems that Police songs don't resonate with the audience.
• I was happy that Haley made it another week.  Melinda is my favorite performer, but I care the most about Haley and Blake.
• My amended picks for the final two include Melinda vs. Blake.  I am even starting to think that Blake may win.
• I am bored with LaKisha.  I think that she peaked too early (first studio show.)  Haley -on the other hand- peaked at the perfect time (if she wanted to at least make the top ten).
• Good that Sanjaya made it another week.  By next Tuesday my "Vote For Sanjaya" T-shirt that I ordered will have arrived at my house.  I'd hate for it to be out-of-style even before it gets to me.
• Sorry about this late post.  I watched the show late due to parent-teacher conferences at my school.
