American Idol - Top 10 Results Show

Okay now I am rather ticked. In yesterdays post, I picked Lil, Megan and Scott as my bottom 3 singers. Mike picked Michael, Lil and Megan. We were both convinced that Megan would go home.

UNBELIEVABLE. Megan Joy did not go home. SHE WAS STINKIN' SAFE TONIGHT !! WTH?? Not even in the bottom three. Please, please, please, don't let Megan Joy be the next Sanjaya. NOTE: someone needs to tell M.J. to quit doing that shoulder twitching thing she seems to love to do. It is irritating.

Then, I hoped and wished that if Megan had to stay another week, that Scott would go home. Scott at least was in the bottom 3, but was immediately sent back to safety leaving Matt and Michael standing there.

Michael Sarver got the lowest number of votes. I definitely think he should have stayed longer than Megan or Scott. Then, to add insult to injury - the judges apparently couldn't agree to disagree - so Simon just blabbed out that Michael is going home tonight.

But here is my question: if the judges had saved Michael - would the contest remain at 10 singers - or would they have sent the person with the next lowest votes home - or would it have been the judges choice to axe someone without warning?

Aside from all the drama, it was terrific to see Season 2 winner Ruben Studdard. He has really slimmed down, and apparently he also got married.

Smokey Robinson performed a duet with [unknown to me] Joss Stone. OMG! They were singing only to each other - almost like they were making love. Did they even remember that there was a live audience in the room and millions of people watching on TV?

Mike was cranky that he wiffed on choosing the bottom 3. None of his picks were correct. Oh well. Maybe next week.
