it is results night for american idol 8's top 7. last night was movie theme song night. i have a seaparate blog on their performances and i am predicting lil, anoop and matt to be in the bottom three tonight, with anoop finally going home.the show starts with the week's group performance. they are singing maniac and i think this is one of the best group performances so far this season. everyone is in tune and everyone seems to be enjoying - plus the fact that they played with the judges on the start of the song.
so now, the results. the first three to get their results are allison iraheta, adam lambert and anoop desai. allison gave a good performance last night and she is safe. adam was next up. i rated him in the bottom three in terms of performance. but who cares? with his fan base he is surely safe... and he is. last is anoop. i rated him the worst performance last night. and after hearing 2 safe's tonight, i know he is in trouble. and anoop is in the bottom three. no surprises.
next up is jennifer hudson's homecoming to idol. this is the first time she is back after season 3. and there is so much hype going on about the oscar awards and the grammy she won already. jennifer gave a solid song number and she definitely showed the top 7 how to give a good performance. hope lil took notes...
next to get their results are kris allen and lil rounds. one of them is in the bottom three. this is a no brainer. kris allen gave the best performance last night. even simon agreed that he is brilliant. but lil was not bad last night. she was just okay. so again, no surprises - kris is safe and lil is in the bottom three. (oh yeah! 2 out of 2 already...)
last to get their results were matt giraud and danny gokey. another no brainer here. danny gokey has the fan base that matt can only wish for. and danny gave a better performance than matt last night. randy also contradicted simon by telling danny that he did his thing last night. and again, matt is in the bottom three and danny is safe.
so i think i got it right this week. the bottom three are anoop, lil and matt. ryan sent someone to safety immediately. and he sends anoop desai to safety. what? anoop is safe? yikes, lil is in danger....
next is miley cirus' number. i switched channels, so i missed it...
so back to the results. the one with the lowest number of votes is matt giraud.
what? lil beat matt? kudos to votefortheworst.com and thanks to the pimp spot...
so matt sings for his life. without the piano, he sings again and he seems to be better last night on the piano, though last night was even not as good. i agree with the judges, this is a case of doing too much to the song. the judges are deliberating and after a while, the female judges are already dancing to matt's number. i think they already decided his fate.
so after his song, it is simon who gives the verdict. he said that he is a good singer but he has no chance of winning this thing. so the judgs has decided, and it is good news for matt. the judges are saving matt giraud!
matt will go down in american idol history to be the first idol to be saved. it is actually his third chance in the competition. he was a wildcard and now, being saved by the judges. i think he does not deserved to be saved after his performance. but i think it was a good decision to use the save now and stir up the competition a bit.
the other idols ran to the center of the stage after the announcement and congratulated matt. but simon interrupted and said that he thinks that they should not celebrate because of two reasons. first, 2 idols will be eliminated next week. and second, next week is disco night. with the judges' save already out of the game, everyone is now in danger of elimination.
