American Idol Top 6!

Wow! We are now down to 6! And we have only 5 weeks left before we crown our American idol for season 10!

This week on American Idol the Top 6 will be performing songs from Carole King’s catalog which should prove very interesting and exciting.

Based on the votings in the past weeks, Jacob and Haley would be two of the the bottom three this week. Who else would join them? If Scotty did not learn from the mistake he made last week, he would very well be in the bottom three this week!

American Idol 2011 Top 7 Elimination Results - What others Say

  1. Wellen says:
    I wonder what most of the people judge these guys against. I think that I have been very bleesed to have the exposure to such a wide variety of music to appriciate it. I am not trained in music, I use a CD player as an insrument and believe me you dont want me to sing. But I have grown up in the greatest music generation I can think of. From the greats of early music to todays top 40. I have heard music transform from Country and Rock on one radio station to Cirrus Radio where you can listen to only one type of music. I listen to everything I can, I’ll try anything once. I hear new music on the show I try to listen to it and appriciate what the performer brings to the table with it.
    I think that is what makes some of the comments so frustrating.
  2. Rozzie says:
    To repeat once again: The only song which has been sung to date over the past couple of months which was a real stirring moment was I Need You Now which Stefano sang. The guy’s got real soul. He’s a singer, composer and musician. He’s just not using all he’s got. He should start. Wake up everybody!
    • David P. says:
      I agree with you. That performance was amazing. Few of the top 13 have such a powerful performance. He deserved his wildcard spot. However, we haven’t seen that Stefano since that song. Last week we got a glimpse of it this week may have been his last chance.
    • Pup says:
      I liked Stefano singing that song. But I would never say he was the only one to deliver a stirring moment! My goodness, Haley has done so over and over and over in every single performance. I keep playing “Fallin’” over and over because I liked it so much.
    • Northern Guy says:
      Great Radio Voices: James. Stefano. Haley.
      “Okay” radio voices: Lauren and Scotty.
      Not good for radio voices: Casey and Jacob.
      Listen to the Itunes tracks and just LISTEN. Forget the performances and their faces and just LISTEN to the voices. This is what will determine if these artists will sell albums or not after AI Season 10 is done. Simon always said: “I can hear that on the radio….”. It’s the radio that matters.
      Country fans can vote for Scotty 1000 times each and not change the fact he’s predictable, quite boring and really not that “radio ready”. He may win this contest, but my eyes are on Haley, Lauren, James and Stefano for people who will sell records.
      8 songs of Scotty swaggering through dreary old country tunes? Wow. Watching paint dry suddenly has appeal for me.
  3. Shawn says:
    My bottom 3
    Jacob
    Stefano
    Scotty(I’m a fan of his, but he needs a wake up call)
    Going home
    Either Jacob or Stefano. Sorry but these two just really bore me to tears.
    • RichardLF says:
      please send jacob home
    • Northern Guy says:
      Scotty(I’m a fan of his, but he needs a wake up call)
      Scotty’s fan base is faltering and James is stealing them as fast as you can say IDOL.
      Scotty needs to think long and hard about his “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it” approach. It may not be broke, but if it’s boring your fans, you can go from top pick for AI10 to “bye bye”. Just ask Pia – a favorite of many fans and the judges, especially in the first weeks.
      Then GONE. Just like a country song: Wake up one morning and the job, the house, the girl, the truck, and even the dog… ALL GONE!
    • David says:
      I agree with you on Jacob and Stefano but Scotty should stay a little longer and Casey leave.
  4. KC says:
    The bottom 3 needs to be stefano, haley, and jacob w/ jacob hitting the road
    • Pup says:
      Not quite right. Should be Scotty (never happen, I know, but should be), Stefano (sad to say) and Jacob (with Jacob going home). Haley has never deserved that spot and definitely does not deserve it tonight.
    • Bobcat says:
      Haley has been consistently one of the best and last night she was in the top 2 so if she is in the bottom 3 again, it will be diabolical!
  5. sherry says:
    if you watch the video stefano only sings part of the song most of it is the backup singers.
  6. BonniMae says:
    If Stefano goes home tonight the two hottest guys to make it to the finals will both be sent home #7, :(
    • Pup says:
      Don’t worry. Not gonna happen. It has to be Jacob. There will be another floodgate of posting on the AI blogs if he does not go.
  7. peggy kanneman says:
    I am totally a James Durbin Fan and he blew the roof off of american idol last night. The judges had it right when they said he was the best performance of the night.
    • Tina Mary says:
      Some note the message from Jennifer, when she told James he was the best of the night was only the second perfomance, so she was saying that James was better than Scotty
      • Tina Mary says:
        Last night I saw a poster in the audience that said King James, I think it’s nice.
        For now on I’m goimg to call him King James
      • Bobcat says:
        She actually said that she bet it was going to be the best performance as far as the theatricals were concerned.
  8. glenda says:
    see ya jacob
  9. Richard says:
    James is alot better than Adam, and he’s the real thing no surprises James has never been in the bottom every one else has James deserves to be the next Idol hands down
    • BonniMae says:
      Scotty and Lauren have never been in the bottom. Pia wasn’t in the bottom before she left. Not being in the bottom isn’t the criteria for winning.
      • Tim329 says:
        I believe Lauren was in the bottom three either during top 13 or top 12 week, it was early on. The only two never to have been there is Scotty and James.
      • JJ says:
        To Tim329….. Lauren has never been in the bottom three yet.
      • Bobcat says:
        @ Pup -
        Of the 18 that have made the final two, 9 of them appeared in the bottom 3 at one point or the other.
        In only two years have the final 2 not appeared in the bottom 3 (or 2 in the semis) and they were the two David’s in Season 7 and Lee and Crystal last year.
        Both Kris Allen and Adam Lambert were in the bottom 3 once in Season 8.
        In Season 6 only Jordin Sparks escaped the bottom 3 as did Taylor Hicks (5) and Carrie Underwood (4).
        None of Season 3’s finalists escaped the bottom 3 and Fantasia was in it twice but won.
        Ruben Studdard was actually in the bottom 2 once but Clay Aiken was never in the bottom 3.
        Kelly Clarkson also did not appear in the bottom 3.
        So Ruben, Fantasia and Kris Allen all won after being in the bottom 3 at least once.
        No-one who has been given the save since it started 3 seasons ago has got to the final three.
    • Pup says:
      It would be interesting to read an analysis of previous winners and their “bottom 3″ stats.
    • Bobcat says:
      There are three who have not been in the bottom 3 since the top 13 started.
      They are James, Lauren & Scotty.
  10. Tana says:
    Everyone is very talented and makes someone happy. That is a good thing, it does seem that this contest brings out the snarky in the viewers. My teenagers are rather amused by the exchanges they have read here. So, having said that, I am STILL voting for Haley and Casey, with no disrespect to any of the other contenders. I’ve never changed my mind from the auditions!
  11. ArkansasKen says:
    It’s time for Jacob to say goodbye. His dramatics have grown old.
  12. CJ says:
    James really showed what he had last night. OMG!!! It doesn’t get any better than this. He is the complete package and more. I have been watching Idol for a long time and i have never seen anyone come close to James. Yea they all had talent, but not to this extreme. I’m not sure if i would be even watching Idol if James wasn’t on here. It’s more fun when you have alot of entertainment, and he has that . Some of the others are really good too with others putting me asleep. Gotta love James!!!
  13. Pup says:
    Those Scotty voters have GOT to be kidding. He was just plain awful last night.
  14. David P. says:
    Haha, my Sis was commenting on my comp, >_< I hope she didn't say anything embarrassing.
  15. Jay says:
    Casey and James are my top two last night, usually it’s Scotty instead of Casey.
  16. Paula says:
    I thought Haleys performance was beatiful. If “Rollin in the deep” wouldn’t be so current hit, she would have made a bigger impact, I think. Also James’ performance was great, so it was a hard place to be. But I don’t understand why the judges are picking on Haley all the time. I know last week she wasn’t on her best, but she was the only one they critisized? That week I hated everyone… And now pitch… come on. Best after James, if not equal.
    I hope Jacob is voted off next, I dont like his attitude and I’m tired of his style of singing. He makes me wanna shoot myself.
    • Bobcat says:
      Tyler just leers when Haley sings – dirty old man – and JLo doesn’t want a good looking gal taking the attention away from her.
  17. whatthefudge says:
    James was awesome – he should take the crown
    Casey 1/2 half was really good
    Haley I dont usually like her, but that was her best performance
    Scotty – don’t like country, usually love him, but this was his worst performance
    Stefano – much better but heavy on the cheese
    Jacob – ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZz
    Lauren – ditto
    Bottom 3: Jacob, Lauren and either Stefano or Casey
    Going Buh-Bye – Jacob
