The AI Top 3
Ryan says they received 56 million votes!! Where are all of these votes coming from with viewership dropping?
Group Number - ''Ain't No Stopping Us Now'' - They sound better as a trio with backup singers than as a group.
FORD COMMERCIAL VIDEO
RECAP of last evening with comments by the judges
Fantasia screams a song at the top of her lungs - She's got hideous red hair with matching hideous nails which match her hideous song
ELIMINATIONS BEGIN:
VIDEO - DAVID A GOES HOME - Murray Utah - He's mobbed by cheerleaders. He's mobbed at the mall. We see him visiting his High School. Overwhelmed, he begins to cry and repeats the word GOSH over and over again. He seems to find the entire experience unbelievable.
VIDEO of David A and his time on Idol is shown
VIDEO - SYESHA GOES HOME - Sarasota FL - She's mobbed by crazed Floridians. She visits her family and her High School. Screaming fans seem to be everywhere. We see her taking a helicopter ride. She cries while expressing her happiness and gratitude to everyone.
VIDEO of Syesha and her time on Idol is shown
VIDEO - DAVID C GOES HOME - Kansas City MO - He goes to the Fox Studios first, then heads downtown. He's greeted by the throngs and sings for them. He then heads to his elementary school to surprise his music teacher who inspired him to pursue his love of music. We meet his brother Andrew who was the one who originally went to audition, not David!! A parade follows with screaming fans.
VIDEO of David C and his time spent on Idol is shown
THE FINALISTS - David A and David C - The Judges and Nigel have their wish, the two Davids!
Syesha M is ELIMINATED -- She has no comment because she says there would be too much to say.
Best wishes to Syesha and her future in music! Hopefully, she will find a place in musical theater.
NEXT WEEK: The Final 2 Vie For The Title
FANTASIA.....WHAT WAS THAT???? Simon's face said it all. I even think Randy and Paula looked a little disturbed by the whole thing. She sang on the 4th of July a few years ago in Philly and so terribly needed a bra. She does seem like a sweet person, I just don't dig her music.
Ok, so David vs. David. I would have been very pleased if the contest came down to Syesha and David Cook, but I knew that was wishful thinking. My best friend's husband and I bet each other every year. The winner picks the restaurant and the winner and their spouse are treated to dinner by the loser. Michael and I both wanted David A, so he said I can have the rest of the field and he'll take David A. Ugghhhh!!! This is too close for comfort. I won only twice with Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood. I picked Chris Daughtry and was robbed that year. Until next week.....

How could that little elf-man-child David A. win? Who's voting? Goofballs like these.....
My friend's son came home from A & M University with the story that his girlfriend and her friend had text voted for Jason Castro over 300 times each the evening before he was eliminated. That's 600 votes minimum from 2 silly girls for the dreadlocked 4th place winner! Sheesh!
go Cook go

I loved Fantasia. loved it....loved loved loved loved loved loved it....everything about it. There, I said it. I thought it was the best thing I've ever saw on idol. I know I need to get my head examined. Hubby hated it. He was rolling his eyes while I was shaking my booty

Don't forget the hideous dancing! The diaper comment was accurate! I didn't see her AI season either and boy am I glad. Did she win? Top 4? HOW???
Anyway, I'm thrilled David C. goes to the finals. He's been a fave of mine since almost the beginning. I admit, the first week or so, I wasn't crazy about him. I have to go pinpoint which performance got me.
Thanks for all the recaps and links!!!

WOW! Wasn't that a shocker! LOL!
The Group Number was much better tonight. Syesha is the clear performer with DC a close second. She was doing a jazz square right with the music (and singing at the same time-amazing!) while the two guys just kind moved back and forth at the beginning of the number. Did you notice how they even had the two Davids right out in front in one bit of staging and Syesha was in the middle but in back of them? Was that to say, here are your Final 2? Also, did anyone notice that the song they sang, "Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now", is the same one that Clay and Ruben sang on their final night? Is AI recycling now?
The back home segments were nice to see and very emotional for the contestants. That Mayor of David A.'s was a character, though. The Ford Commercial was kind of nice as showing their dreams of the future. The whole show was pretty good, long, but good EXCEPT for Fantasia's performance. I didn't care for her the season she won, but she did have her few good moments. Tonight she was just awful! I hope she did much better in "The Color Purple". Was she trying to advertise the show by her hair? No, then they would have to change the title to "The Color BRIGHT RED"! LOL! Simon's face was priceless when he saw her performance. (See pictures below.)
I think the better performance was Syesha in her singout tonight. She is a classier act and I'm sure will do well on Broadway or wherever. Good Luck to her!
Next week: The winner of AI7 will be David! : )

All the clips of each of them going home is up; the Group Number; the Ford Commercial of Los Lonely Boys, "Heaven" in which they all go to a Fortune Teller to find out their future, which of course is that they are all famous; Fantasia's performance, including Simon's shocking face (see pics below); and the announcement of the Final 2 and the elimination of Syesha.
Sometime tomorrow, there will be a regular written recap along with the videos.

Here is a picture of Fantasia and her scarlet/orange hair and the second one is a picture of Simon's reaction to her, ummm, performance. Very funny.

Last night's show was a bit of alright. My favourite performance was DC's 'The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face'.
I had the first half of tonight's show muted. I enjoyed the 'Going Home' videos.
Tonight's outcome was predictable. I'm pulling for David Cook.
Thanks for the great recaps, songbird. I just can't seem to get excited about the show anymore.

No great surprise but Syesha will do well. I'm still concerned that this could go to David A. - it just CAN'T!!
Other than seeing their hometown greetings this show was filler.
I didn't watch the Fantasia season and BOY am I glad. Her posture is sooooo poor and she walked around like she was wearing a loaded diaper. Simon had one of his famous reactions and I half wish the judges would comment when past contestants come back. I would love to know what words went with Simon's look.
I answered your Nigel question but I'll put it here, too: Interestingly I thought the very same thing. Maybe because he cares more about SYTYCD. He's forever shouting it's praises whenever he can that it gets larger audiences than Idol. He may be EP for both but having his face out there for SYTYCD goes to his head. It's been voted the best of these type shows. You'd think he'd work just as hard at both but apparently not.
