Last night. OMG. Totally didn't see it coming.

-Lucky

I'm not surprised. She is an AWESOME singer but I just don't care for her style. I think a lot of others probably feel the same which is why she didn't move on. I also think she looks like Gilbert Godfried (sp?).

DH did...we had a bet on it...He said Jordin and Blake for the finale and Jordin winning. I had said Melinda and Blake with Jordin winning...He was right...and in all honesty, when Blake sings he IS good, I just hate the beatboxing and for his sake hope he doesn't win...He'd have more freedom with his song choices on his own album, but not as "The" American Idol.

I totally love Blake and I am so glad he is in the finals. Melinda was good, but old fashioned. My hubby saw this coming too. We will see who ends up taking it all home.

I suspect that it was a lot like Chris Daughtry and everyone thought he was the safe, sure bet so they voted for another favorite. Just goes to show you what America wants and it's not a more classic, old fashioned singer but a pop singer.

Until they all come home......

My DH did too! I sat down last night with the expectation of Blake leaving (which had me bummed), but Dh said it would be Melinda. He says that even though she is a great singer, she gave too many people the heebie jeebies with the no neck thing.

I was TOTALLY shocked when they said she was going home ....my jaw still hurts from hitting the floor!

Even though I would prefer to see Blake win - I think Jordin has it in the bag

Melinda is an awesome singer and a great performer (she really gets into her songs)...but I just couldn't see her winning the whole thing. She did break the record of the crowned American Idol never being in the bottom 2. All of the other crowned American Idols have never been in the bottom 2...we can't say that about this year!!

I really liked them all from the top 6...so who ever wins it, will be deserving...and the others will do just fine on their own!!

GO BLAKE GO BLAKE GO BLAKE!!! I love Blake and am soooo glad he didn't get voted off! I didn't like Melinda she didn't seem like an "american Idol"! I will be happy if Jordan wins though also she is soooo good!!!

I'm with you. DH was shocked. He thought she would be in the final. I'm personally glad she's gone. She just didn't do anything for me. I usually did other stuff while she was singing.

DH and I were sad to see Melinda go, but we thought all three were equally deserving, so we knew that it would be sad no matter who left. Melinda will get a record deal no sweat (I'm sure she'll be in a studio in a matter of months) so I'm not too worried. They better pick a song that's better than the last two years of final songs.. Last year's songs were horrendous and the year before it wasn't that good either.
