:lmao2: @ American Idol.

I would bet the farm that Skylar has the most success of any of the remaining contestants.

Jessica is a lock to win it all. She is the worst of the top 5 in terms of performance but they are pimping her for some unknown reason.

I think Hollie is. Jessica is not a lock, its Phillip Phillips. He's the only one not to ever hit the bottom 3. Im telling you, these teeny weenies are not going to fail him now.

Anyone else getting the feeling that J-Lo opened a call center to vote for Jessica?

She has been terrible except 2 songs since getting saved yet has not been in bottom 3.

The pimping this year has been way over the top----just tell them they sang good or bad ---The judges are turning people away from the show.....The young girl texter are always going to sway the vote... so stop pushing a young girl (that can sing ) buts looks like she is making a utube video in her room or a one trick pony(p2)

She's easily the best singer on the show. Not even close.

On top of that she's very modern/current.

Totally agree. She isn't that good of a performer and she isn't as good as the judges make her out to be. She is "technically" a good signer and maybe one of the best in this competition but anyone who understands music understands there is much more to it than being able to sing. She is probably he most boring of all the contestants.

Further, I think the whole spectacle of J-Lo grabbing the mike from her and channeling Kanye West along with Randy proclaiming her the best ever has soured a lot of people. Also, the fact they are dressing this 16 YO girl up as a borderline hooker is nuts. Lopez said last night that "We here in Hollywood have different standards than the rest of America." Yeah, we noticed. They are a lot lower.

Anyway, Jessica will be a footnote in the AI books two years from now.

By modern/current do you mean annoying and fake?

Oh and Hollie is a better singer...nowhere near the vocal gymnastics and as much power.

There is nothing annoying or fake about Jessica. Easily one of the best singers the show has ever had. The control she has with her voice is nothing short of amazing.

Actually that in the ears of the belistener ------Can she sing sing yes---can she sanngg -no ...she is over rehearsed ,plastic and way to something--haven't like her since the whitney song. Maybe if she grows up and gets all the reality shows out of her system

Hollie is everything she is vocally and since coming out of her shell, fun to watch..

People say Jessica is a boring robot. But how is Hollie any different. Ballads Ballads and more Ballads. She still looks timid out there.

I said the same thing at first --but I think sh(Hollie) has figured it out and is becoming more comfortable......Jessica should already be there after years of reality shows --but to me she isn't..America was right to vote her off, the judges are wrong to say America was wrong . She has a great voice --but she is far from an American Idol......Course I'm old ,fat and can't sing a lick--but I do know what I like to listen to and watch.

When Jessica nails it, she really nails it, though. The problem is that she is 16 and doesn't have the life experiences to connect with a lot of the songs she is singing. When she sang "You Are So Beautiful" Tuesday night, I was blown away. She showed patience and control, and the result was amazing. Sure, she probably thinks its from the "Twilight" movie soundtrack, and is singing about a sparkly emo-vampire, but the result was very, very good.
