Let's just give a quick, quick rundown. I'm probably not even going to mention everybody.

    Not in order of performances

 

John Stevens You knew he was coming first... A frightening performance. Actually, not as bad as I expected, however. You could tell he was getting really into it and having fun, which is great, and his voice is really getting stronger and stronger each week. Stronger as in powerful, like "boom," lol. He pulled a lot of creepy Clay faces, though. It reminded me of Aiken's performance of "Grease," and the singing was just as ghastly. (Sorry, my Claymates, that was a hot jacket and hot red shoes, but the faces and the twang...well anyways, these are season three reviews...) The "laaaaalalalalala"s were just plain weird, but I guess they've always been very creepy for me...just not as much. Props for trying something new, though! And honestly, I think that Will Hung is more of the musical equivalent of Ed Wood. Or Keith. Or even Alan Ritchson (is that right? I tried to forget him...)

George Huff The guy is consistently butt-kicking. He has never had a boom-praised performance. I have no idea why it took a DUI and a Wild Card call to get him into the Top 12. He has really made it all worth it. Thank you, Donnie Williams, for your irresponsibility! Ah, kidding. No one should ever get praised for actions like those. Back to George Huff, though, he did fantastically. I had never heard of "Take Me to the Pilot," but the way he sang it, it wasn't just all of America knowing it after that performance, but I felt like I already did.

Diana DeGarmo A rare case indeed. Has the girl ever sung any slow, teary-eyed songs? Well, anyways, she did fabulously, especially for tonsilitis. I couldn't even tell! I really loved her performance. I love how the Idols went to play in the audience tonight, but I think that if they're going to do that, maybe they should interact with the audience more. Well, I love the "gimme five!"s and Fantasia serenading that old man, but Diana had a few issues with eye contact. She did very well, but I'd like to hear some drawn out, emotional, passionate songs from her. I still give her the prize for the night for doing so well with tonsilitis. Tonsiltastic!

Jon Peter Lewis I think the pen has run out of ink. *shrugs* Sorry. The guy's a cutie, an entertaining performer, and he has a good voice, but he hasn't been very strong lately, and he hasn't yet mastered the mechanics of singing--or maybe just being on the right pitch. Voice lessons though? I don't know. That's a little too harsh.

Jasmine Trias Was it Simon who said she stopped improving? Whoever it was, very, very true. That's exactly it. That's exactly it. I want to hear some more fast, energetic songs from Jasmine. She seems to always sing the same kinds of slow and desperate songs.

Camile Velasco How could I forget? Well, simply put, she sounded like a cat. Last week LaToya's hair looked like a cat, this week, Camile sounds like one. The part in the chorus where you just kind of musically wail three tones...wasn't musical. *shrugs* Sad.

Fantasia Barrino Fantastic. I love how she started offstage. That was great. And she got to inject at least a bit of humor into it. Lovely. I'm getting a little sick of her ego/attitude though.
Jennifer Hudson How could I almost forget?! She was dynamic. That was the perfect song for her. She has a big voice. I think that's the only reason why it's hard to understand her when she sings--my biggest problem with her. "Circle of Life" is a big song. She sang it in a very big, very effective, very passionate, and very excellent way.
LaToya London Not her best performance, but still very good. It was LaToya Lacking, which means it's still average or better for most of the top 32 anyway.

 

Prediction: After last week, I don't know who to expect in the bottom three tomorrow. Not a clue. Or, not much of one. But...I think Camile is going to be voted off. I doubt Diana will be in the bottom three. Not JPL or John because of their huge fanbases. JPL's is obvious, they come in swarms!, but John Stevens, didn't see that coming. Notice though, he has never had any threats to his safety, except for judges comments and the whiners who do speak out. That might sound like a lot, but he got to the top 32 without some guy getting a DUI first, he didn't have to get to the Wild Card, he has never been in the bottom three... George. Yeah right! Jennifer...maybe, but probably not. She gets the swing voters, heh. (Another way "American Idol" is like politics!) She gets the voters who vote based on currrent performance, which I think is mostly pretty wise. LaToya, not after last week's threat! We all know she's one of the best, but she has many of the same fans as the people who powerdial for George and Fantasia. America has a tendency to forget about the people whom they know kick butt, but don't show enough personality and ego to have haters. Tamyra, for instance, is probably the biggest example--probably the first time "Idol" goers used the boo. Trenyce. Ruben Studdard, even, once! That's probably what had her drop. America also has a tendency to take the rebound and powerdial the next week, no matter what, if a favorite has been in the bottom three. Anyways, so not Diana, not John, not Jon, not LaToya, not George, probably not Jennifer. I guess that leaves us with Camile, Jasmine, and Fantasia. Hm...Fantasia does have haters. I just don't see it though. Somehow, I don't see her in the bottom three. She has been pretty safe. Jasmine--I don't know about her. I'm not sure...
