FOX's "American Idol" (Season 16)

[Mouse]

All I gotta say is CASEY IS DA MAN! Sneaking a kiss on JLo. Good for him!

Also, Scotty does not deserve to get to the end. It should be between Casey and James. If Lauren ends up there then America can be forgiven but Scotty? No way. Jacob needs to go home tomorrow then Hailey, Scotty and Stefano follow suit but I don't really care the order as long as Casey, James and Lauren are the top 3. That's the only outcome that can save any shred of humanity America has left.

Oh! And John Noble was in the audience! I love that guy!

The 2 that deserve to be gone now! This show sucks now!

No way should Scotty see any parts of the finale. He is still there because he seems to be the most popular Idol but other than that he is a dog with one trick. A James & Casey finale would be exciting and well deserved as they both blow Scotty to pieces all day long. Got Em!!

We agree fully about Casey & James. Got Em!!

Ok so again I wont judge each individual performance but here are my bottom 3 predictions:

Bottom 3
Scotty McCreery
Jacob Lusk
Stefano Langone

Im pretty sure Scotty wont be in the bottom 3 but he easily should so thats what I am going with. Yall know I aint biased either as I have Jacob in the bottom 3 as I didnt care much for his performance tonight. He toned it down way to much. At this point u have to go all out like Casey & James do every week. Stefano to me easily should be goin home though and thats without even thinking about it. If Scotty isnt in the bottom 3 it will probably be Haley but she doesnt deserve to be. She has improved by miles since a few weeks ago. Stefano is the only weak link left and then it gets super tough. I am still trippin on how people on here dont like Casey and felt he shouldve never been saved? That dude is bananas and I cant wait to get his album. Got Em!!

That's the bottom 3 I would have as well but pretty sure Haley will be in there instead of Scotty. Even though I think Haley is getting better and better and Scotty seems to be getting worse each week.

I wouldnt say Scotty is getting worse each week, but he is a one trick pony and he has reached his peak so now he doesnt stand out anymore and actually kinda exposed due to his singing range which is limited. Got Em!!

[CZAR]

Just like I figured. Stefano finally went home and it was long overdue. I also knew Jacob would land in the bottom 3. I chose Scotty also but even said he was to popular to land there and figured Haley wouldve landed there and she did. Im just glad Stefano is finally gone. Cant wait for next week. Got Em!!

Pia was the best...she's gone.

Paul was the second best...he's gone.

Lauren is the last one still there that I really like.

James is the sympathy contestant (I want him to do well too).

Casey annoys the hell out of me.

Haylie is dumb. She can't hold a candle to Adele (J-Lo is on drugs for saying that Haylie made her forget about Adele).

Jacob creeps me out with his diva-ish ways.

Scotty is just laughable.

Also, I could take a crap on stage and the judges this year would compliment me. It's bogus.

That is all.

I liked Haley's version better than Adele.

That is all.

Pia was one of the best but not the best but its arguable. Paul was far from 2nd best. I couldnt disagree more with that Paul comment. Lauren is really good but hopefully she does show more of her range. How is James a sympathy contestant? He is really damn good actually. Wont even comment to the Casey comment because we know where I stand with him. Haley is on my good side now and she is unique. Never heard that song before Haley sung it but I liked it very much when she sang it. I kinda agree with u about Scotty. He is getting to much love and he isnt that great of a singer but should do fine in the country genre. He really she be the one to go next but I highly doubt it.

Actually as far as the judges go only Tyler gives everyone a compliment. I am highly impressed with J-Lo this season and she is a very good judge. Randy has been the best judge this season though and has gave some negative criticism actually. Tyler is a legend and its great that he is on the show but he isnt a very good judge at all. Maybe if u showed your thattas they would compliment u but not for taking a crap haha. Got Em!!

Okay....here we go....(just breathe, Julie, just breathe lol jk)....

1 - Pia IMO was the best. She has the best control, best look, and was the most talented. Let's be honest, AI needs to produce a bigger star than what has come out the past couple of years (Taylor Hicks, David Cook, Adam Lambert). She was and probably is still poised for the most commercial success on the pop charts (right up there with Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson in terms of overall appeal).

2 - We won't go into Paul, other than to say that he has a unique voice that would make a great album.

3 - Lauren will be a perfect fit in country music. She has the look, the likeability factor, and the voice.

4 - James is very talented, don't get me wrong...however, because of his story (poor, his medical condition, etc.), he is the sympathy vote of the season. Also, if he keeps screaming each week, too many comparisons to Adam Lambert will surface (and that is not a good thing). James has the potential to be so much better than Lambert and is much better than the screaming expos he puts on.

5 - Casey is absolutely ridiculous to me. Does he have talent? Yes. However, his weird growls, his stupid faces, and his lack of an "X-Factor" make me want to vomit. I know some of you guys love him, I just always ask myself what Berry Gordy used to ask people when he ran Motown (and was determining what singles to release) - "If you were down to your last few dollars, would you buy this record or a sandwich..." - with Casey, every single time I would say sandwich.

6 - Haley must have learned to growl from Casey. I can not stand her incessant need to initiate a growl into her songs. And for the record, no she did not sing Adele's "Rolling in the Deep" well. You can refer to a live performance here:

YouTube - Adele - Rolling In The Deep (Live)

OR the music video here:

YouTube - Adele - Rolling In The Deep

7 - Scotty is just too much to watch. His arrogance, his weird faces and mannerisms, the way he hold his microphone, and even his voice = boring. Josh Turner wannabe.

8 - Jacob should go next.

9 - I really do like Steven Tyler...I think he's cool. However, he looks bored as all hell on results night. J-Lo and Randy are boring. Maybe I just prefer Simon and the honesty he brought with judging. J-Lo is my biggest pet peeve - can you say overrated all the way around?!

But, these are just my opinions guys!

Pia is not the most talented. If u mean singing range then maybe but she has no other talent but singing. She doesnt even know how to perform when she sung that up tempo song she still just stood around and looked stiff. Casey is easily the most talented especially considering him playing a bass and making it look cool while doin it. We will just disagree on Paul. He does have a unique style but it doesnt do anything for me. I think we mostly agree about Lauren though. I think she can sing pop as well as country actually. James is much better than Lambert actually and I would love to hear an album from him. I guess with Casey u either love him or hate him, I love him. I used to not like Haley but like her very much and when she sings with that growl or whatever u wanna call it it sounds great and brings soul to the song. I think we agree about Scotty as well. I am a huge fan of Jacob but he has been wearing thin a bit the past couple of weeks. He needs to get back to going for it all and singing the right songs because he has crazy range just as much as Pia in my opinion. I wish Simon was still there to so dont get me wrong. He is the best judge out there period. Got Em!!

You said it --- if by talent, I refer to singing - then YES, Pia = the best. This is a singing competition. We aren't looking for the next great musician or songwriter. SINGER.

I am totally looking forward to "The X-Factor" Also going to check out "The Voice" this next week.

I can't take you seriously too saying Paul was second best

He's IMO 2nd worst. After Stefano. Or at least he's in my bottom favorite. But i agree Pia was the best singer out of all.

YouTube - American Idol 2011 Top 7 - Haley Reinhart (Rolling In The Deep)

She gave different sound of Rolling in the Deep cos there's something in her voice, and i loved it. Different color from the verse to the reffrain. So i liked hers better

I won't resort to name calling....so, I will just politely disagree. I will say - GET YOUR EARS CHECKED

Yea well if that is the case then why is this a popularity contest and why do people say things like "Casey doesnt have an American Idol look" to me thats silly because as u have said its about the singing not looks or anything else right? Just a thought. Got Em!!

Just because singing is what the show is about doesn't mean that's how the voting goes.

I always thought the show was mostly geared towards finding a "popstar". Not necessarily the best singer. It was only the last couple if years that they tried to really open up the show to unique musicians.

Haven't seen any promos door the X Factor, but I predict The Voice will fail. Guess we'll see.

I will definitely watch X-Factor as thats Simon's new show but I dont care about Voices. Got Em!!

I'm going to give X Factor a chance but only because of Simon Cowell really.
