Jordan really put herself back in the game, even if her song was really sappy. She sang great. Melinda and LaKisha are the two to beat.

Who in the world is voting for Sanjaya? [?]

Anthony, wait until Country night...ick!
I hope the top 3 are versatile...
It's going to be fun to watch Jordin grow and develop as a musician.
 
The bottom three didn't surprise me at all. I was hoping Sanjaya would be the one going but it was encouraging to see him in the bottom 2. Of course that could just mobilize his little army.
 
Dang..........totally forgot to watch[V] Bought the DVD Casino Royale and watched it last night. Really good movie, didn't think I was going to like the Bond replacement but there is alot to like about him, what a body[:0][:p]

So who got voted out? I see by Mark's post, I'm going to have to watch Sanjaya again[:(!][:(][V]
 
I still say....FIXED!!

I read today that the contract all contestants sign states the producers can "override" voting. I haven't been able to verify it, but that would make a whole lot of sense.

Brandon. He would have been gone sooner rather than later. I think he was too set in his ways to be able to make the change the judges were asking him to make.
A lot of people seem to not like Phil's shaved head. I can say that he probably didn't think about it because it is so accepted in the Navy. When you deploy for 6, 8 or 12 months, it's a really easy hair style to maintain. I did it once. They said I looked like a freaky axe murderer so didn't do it again.[:(!]
 
Wow, Jordan just blew me away! What a great performance she gave tonight. Now I have to listen to what's his name..........Sanja..Senjou whatever[xx(]
 
Jordin had another awesome performance. That kid Sanjaya is so gone. It's too bad Howard Stern is having all his listeners call in for Sanjaya so he can ruin the show.
 
Stephanie is gone tonight. She was a very good singer. Sanjaya is still there and not even in the bottom two. His performance last night was just horrible. It looks like Howard Stern's plan is working. Get all of his fans to vote for Sanjaya, so he can say he ruined the show. [:(!] Everybody should cancel their Sirius satellite radio contract just to get back at him. Ruin Sirius, so Stern does not have a platform.
 
Howard is an ***hole, sorry to offend anyone, that is solely my own opinion. Sanjaya has had way more than his 15 min. of fame, in fact he's had hours.............stop the insanity.........serenity now (hands raised to the air and dropping to knees)[:(!][:(][V]

Since it's on, I watch it. I voted for Stephanie. Figured she would not do well since I had no trouble getting through. I vote five times, no more. I only had to dial seven times for my five. That Sanjaya is runing the show. He is a no-talent waste. I don't understand how he got past the initial screening auditions.
 
You could tell from Ashley's reaction who's voting for him. I haven't seen anything like that since Elvis and The Beatles. But she seemed to cry for others as well, so maybe she was just caught up in the moment.[?] I was really proud of Haley this week. I thought she did quite well and Jordin just continues to bring it. Lakisha and Melinda both have recording contracts in the bag, so I'm not worried about either of them. Blake does too, for that matter. He, Jordin, Gina and Haley all have the talent, and more importantly, the "marketability" that the program is looking for. I guess we'll see what pans out in the wash. Hopefully, we'll be seeing the last of Sanjoka as the song requirements get more varied. I can't wait to see what he does for C&W night (assuming he makes it that far). Okay, where's the icon for shaking head in disgust?[;)]
 
I do think there is one positive thing about Stephanie getting voted off. In my unofficial capacity I had her tied for 4th with Blake. She would have been voted off sooner or later. IMHO, she didn't sing well Tuesday night, so in that regard, I think she was voted off solely on her performance. Before anyone yells at me, I don't think Sanjaya, Chris or Haley are better singers, they just have a better following. When the pool gets whittled down, those votes that are keeping those three in will not be enough to keep them in this farce. Sanjaya might make the top 3 though.[:(!]
 
It seems like Sanjoka (thanks Billy), does not care if he gets votes because he's the worst. He just keeps singing like crap and looking like some kind of alien.[:0] I don't think it was the best song for Jordin, however, she pulled it off. My wife and I both said that Gina did an awesome job again. Lakisha and Melinda did great too. They both have had professional lessons. Melinda better be on tone as she was a professional back up singer.
 
I find Simon's comments to be pretty much right on, though somewhat more blunt than how I would put things. But his comments to Sanjoka were great! Something like: It doesn't really matter what we say anymore, does it? You're in your own universe now, just go with it!

I've been studying stupid people for many years (I run a welfare office), and I've come to the conclusion that there are lots of stupid people, but some are what I call "aggressively stupid!" Sanjoka is an aggressively bad singer!

It's nice that there are some bright spots on the show - I think Jordin and Gina just keep getting better every week!

Jordin did very well again last night as did others. Sanjokie was awful again, even the judges don't have words for it. I think if they keep Sanjokie in tonight poor Haley might be the next victim. I hope she get another chance and he is outta there.[}:)]
 
I think they should change the voting rules one week, and instead of voting FOR whoever you like, we should be allowed to vote AGAINST who we don't like! That would fix one problem!

Too bad, we all will[:(] Makes me sad that some of the contestants that deserve to stay longer can't because of this thing with Joka!
 
Been watching AI for three seasons now. I pegged Fantasia and Taylor as winners early in each season but my fav last year was Chris - and his CD is <b>extremely</b> good, in case some haven't heard it.

This year is almost enough to make me stop watching. Jordin, Melinda and LaKisha are fantastic, and I like Chris & Blake as well (they'll probably not be finalists though). The "Tony Bennett" week (I can't believe he's 80!) was interesting and I thought that ranking after Melinda's flawless performance, Chris and Blake did the best. Jordin has real all-round star potential, though.

It's just so depressing watching Sanjoka (I second the kudos for that nick) still in with such talented kids. Pathetic. If he goes much farther, the show's credibility is entirely washed up, IMHO. But then again, I can't stand Howard Stern, either. [;)]

What is next week's "theme"? Anyone know?

Nancy
 
I watch it because my wife likes the show. But, I have to admit I have gotten a bit caught up in the competition. Keep in mind, this is TV and ratings are the name of the game. Hating Sanjaya is sure to keep ratings up. Part of the theory of the voting process is that if America picks who they like the most, America will buy records. But, with Sanjaya there the whole process is skewed. Maybe if the voting was more like they do on Dancing With The Stars it could be fairer to the better talented competitors. The show could throw out whoever they wanted. I dunno. Doubt the sky will fall if Sanjaya wins or gets to the finals.

Hmmm. That might be nice...but don't you think the NASTY people would strike in this too? Votefortheworst.com would change their tune to voteforthebest and Howard Stern (the loving, caring person he is) would urge his minions to vote for Melinda, Jordin or LaKisha.
 
Well, I think Jordin will be safe again this week.[:D] I'm so glad that Sanjoka is gone. i enjoyed the whole show. I also liked how Blake did tonight too. I keep teasing my daughter that the price of my home videos of Jordin are going up.[}:)] Tonights show was also for a good cause. It was great to see everyone do good.
 
I think the results will be:
1 Melinda
2 Blake or Jordin
3 Jordin or Blake
Just my opinion. I used to really like Lakisha, but she hasn't seemed to get better with time, as the others have. Blake and Jordin are my two favorite personalities, but I have to go with the gospel fan.

Jordin makes it into the finals!!! We are all very happy for her. We've known her since she was 14. She has worked very hard for this and she deserves it. Melinda did good, however I think the song choices last night were not that good. Jordin had great song choices and I think she sounded great no matter what Simon said.
 
Jordin is really something special. As for the type of songs and singing prefrence goes, my wife and I rooted for Blake the whole way through and we will definantly be buying his cd whether or not he wins. I'm not giving up on him winning though. I have called the last 3 votes correct and I'm giving the crown to him, so we'll just see![;)]
