‘American Idol’ - Do you agree with America?
Week two is finished and America has voted. But, do you agree?
The voting is complete and the first to go home is…
Jason Yeager - He thought he was going to be in the bottom rung and he was. His best advice - he thought he put it all out for America. Simon tells Jason he doesn’t stand out in the crowd.
Next up the ladies…
Alexandrea Lushington - the judges tell her she’s got great skills - but it just wasn’t her song.
Next out - Alaina Whitaker - Paula tells the grief stricken outcast she is “promising and we love you.” The ladies of Idol help the newly off’d contestant through the exit song. I have to say - for so early in the competition - this offing seemed more dramatic than it might have needed to be…
The final Idol send off is..
Robbie Carrico - I agree. Simon tells this former contestant - “never ever felt real.” Perhaps it was his hair that wasn’t real and caused his downfall. I really have to wander if it is real - it seems to be changing texture and color each time we see him - so perhaps America didn’t want their next Idol to have bad hair.
So, did America choose the right four?

American Idol is fixed. They kicked off good singers and kept bad ones. The girl with black and white hair can’t sing nor can the little phillipino/hawaian girl. They can sing as good as i can(can’t) spell

I can’t believe Alexandrea went over Amanda but I didn’t vote for either one of them. I think Alexandrea is an excellent singer, but I didn’t like her cocky attitude. I did vote for Alaina though…I thought she was much better than Amanda and Kady. I was as shocked as you could tell she was, but once she started whining I realized she was not ready and it was probably for the best that she went home. The guys were the right picks to go. I think Luke isn’t that great if a singer, I didn’t vote for him, but I do think he’s hot! I’m glad I get to look at him again next week.

I am shocked. The guys I nailed on the money, but the girls, I was so upset. The two girls I named to go home were up against the girls that did go home!

It definitely should NOT have been Alaina over Kady, Alexandrea over Skunk girl (Elvira as you’ve all affectionately named her) or even Robbie over Luke. The only one I agreed with was Jason Yeager. Of all the other three it should have been the other person up there with them. That’s not to say that I think Alaina, Alexandrea or Robbie would’ve made it more than another week or two, but they deserved one more shot.

Yes, Elvira … I mean, Amanda … should have been voted off before Alexandrea. America voted, and voted wrong.

I can’t believe that Elvira wasn’t voted off, she’s horrible!
