Best Final 4 Ever

Idolites –

All the Adam fans, please take a step back off the ledge. He’ll be in the finals. I think his voting contingent got complacent…this was a wake up call.

The last time Seacrest had a contestant pick which group they belonged to, Melinda Doolittle refused to pick. Not our boy Adam. He acted a little pained to have to choose, but chose the group we all thought would be the top 3. He was actually right, but of course, the joke was on him. That must have been quite an uncomfortable last half hour of the show for him, having to stand with the two guys he just said were worse than him. With Kris also in the Bottom 3 for the first time, Danny is now the only contestant that hasn’t been there.

Taylor Hicks actually looked and sounded really good…and Simon gave him a standing-O. I think he has finally shed his embarrassment of being American Idol.

Jamie Foxx has the number one song with that one? I’m really out of touch. With all the digitizing of his voice, just about anyone could sing that one.

America has really gotten the top 4 right. When the Top 13 started, it looked like Danny, Adam and Allison in the top 4, but who would have thought Kris would be there instead of Lil? No one, actually. Not only was Kris the pool consensus pick to finish 11th, but not one pool entry picked all of the current top 4…although a few of us have gotten three!!

Kim Skorupa has scored 27 points in the past two weeks (including two correct picks in a row) to take a commanding 4 point lead on Isabel DeVera. Things have tightened up considerably, however, and a lot of people still have a chance at being in the money.

Slash is the mentor next week…sweeeeeet!!! That means rock songs, which should play to the strength of Allison and Adam. I also think they should be singing two songs, but don‘t quote me on that, as I thought they’d be singing two this week.

Until next week….

  2. Holy Snaps!! You're right. Way to go Isabel!! I don't know how excited I'd be to see a Kris vs. Danny Finale, but I'm impressed with the foresight.

  3. Thanks, thanks. But, saving Matt really messed up my picks. It still bugs me that the judges used their save on him.
