American Idol (SPOILER, SPOILER, SPOILER)
Down to the two Davids.

I knew it would be.

Although I really like David Archuletta, I think David Cook will be the next American Idol.

1. Not surprised at the results.
Syesha was in the bottom 3 practically every week. I don't know how she hung on to finish third.

I also predict David Cook, (if the vote goes by talent).

2. Figures...
I knew they would boot Syesha tonight, but I like her a lot. The judges were unnecessarily harsh to her last night - tacking on gratuitous negative comments. Both of the Davids were initially interesting and exciting, but I have become tired of both of them, frankly.

4. I liked her, too
and she was sexy, sexy, sexy.

But, somehow she just wasn't that strong.

7. I think she'll do great on Broadway.
She was sensational on the Andrew Lloyd Webber night. I could picture her in a lot of Broadway shows.

3. Good.
That's the way it should be. Cook should win. Little David will be ok. He needs to mature a bit and come back in a few years. Cook could cut an album today and sell.

5. I agree.
David Cook is just an awesome singer and personality.

Little David ( I like that) has a great voice and can sing just about anything you throw at him, but has a BORING personality.

8. THAT was my question too!! Did you catch the look Cowell gave Randy?
Way strange performance. Cross between burlesque and rap and circus.

10. Well I guess once their year is up, they've cut whatever record they want to sell
and things don't move along, they just cut them loose. Way loose in her case. Kind of sad. She had kind of a sweet sincerity back when. And I believe she sang, in place of the bat screeching she did this evening.

12. Yup, that's the one. Must have wondered what alien inhabitated her body.

17. You'd think with $70 million, he could afford a non-hideous haircut.

18. I was thinking the SAME THING when I watched that gif...
and I've thought it numerous times in the past!

What is it about his middle-parted flat-top that he won't give up?

It's a sucky hair style.

15. Well it's not like the jury practically TOLD America how to vote
It was just so obvious, I don't know if they were worried that America would screw it up, but they were not too subtle about making their wishes known.

Fortunately, I totally agreed with them, and also agree that Cook is the winner.

Archuletta is awesome and he's got some growing up to do - plus he's got to work on that breathiness thing he's got going.

Cook is da man!! :thumbsup:

20. Cook will win.
As it should be.

I personally would have liked to see Cook vs. Mercado, though. David Archuleta just doesn't do a thing for me (probably because I'm not a 14 year old girl)

23. I was very dissappointed with this result
Archuletta reminds me of a talented high school act. He lacks the stage presense and the look. David Cook seems like a really good cover band singer. Syesha she was the complete package. She had the look, the stage presense and the voice.

25. She's gorgeous
with a great style. But I thought her voice was always weak. I can't believe she lasted as long as she did.

"Fever" finally put an end to her, as it should've.
