Fantasia is a diva and a hot mess at the same time. LOL.

But I actually liked her performance last night. It was hair and dress that bothered me-although I like her curves.

Anyway, I think the right 2 went home. But I remain unimpressed by Casey's performances 3 weeks in a row. He's so awesome when he's singing what he's good at-that scat, jazzy thing he does is incredible. When he does Kurt Cobain tho, not so much.

Aside from that, I actually think this is one of the season's where its hard to pick a clear winner of the bunch cause the remaining contestants are very stong each in their own way.

As for Fantasia... never been a fan of hers so I just fast forwarded through the performance.
Just goes to show ya how much TV I watch!

They all look the same to me but I'm happy I found AI however I did it...

Now, I watch two shows! Antique Roadshow and AI...unless it's AGT

Paul was in the bottom 3 last night.

Performances - American Idol (http://www.americanidol.com/videos/season_10/performances/ - broken link)

You don't get the judges' comments or any of the filler, but at least you can see their performances.

They should just give Pia the title and send all the other wannabees home. That Pia chick has the ENTIRE package.

Fantasia to play Mahalia, oh lord!!! Couldn't they find someone with talent, who can actually act? Acting is not her thing hence her movie about herself. Don't think she needed to gain weight for that, thought she had been gaining weight from all the stress that she brought upon (which is going after a married man and being taken to court for it, and her homes being in foreclosure) and the pregnancies she's had.

I like all music but IMO can't stand all of Fantasia's screaming and runs, just too much.

I know, I meant in the future I don't think he'll be in the bottom 3 for awhile.

I think all of the girls besides Lauren should go home before any of the guys.

I think Paul will have an upswing in votes because he was in the bottom 3 this week and he definitely has fans out there to pick up the voting.

Ooooh, I love Antique Roadshow! Lol

AI is good this season, though truthfully it's the 2nd full season I've ever watched, before I'd just catch glimpses of episodes throughout the season. Last year was my first full season and I wan't too thrilled, but this year I'm pretty impressed. Almost all of the top 9 are better than the winner from last year.

Like an amateur getting up on stage.

I still can't believe Randy Jackson called it the "best performance of the night"?!?
You're not the only one that felt that way. She was trying to hard IMO.

Pity 'cause that is one of my favorite songs.

Guessed the bottom 3... granted anyone could have done that.

All 3 were worthy to go home.

I think the next 3 to go are going to be Paul, Haley, and Stefano. All 3 are not in the same level as the other contestants left.

James is the easy front runner. He has the biggest fan base of current contestants. Proof in someone giving him a real WWF championship belt with his name engraved. Trust me he will be in the final.

As for performances last night...
Lauren/Scotty was the only good performances from the contestants. The girls were atrocious in their rendition of Teenage Dream. They couldn't harmonize at all. The boys... my problem with them was the song choice they were given. Band of the Run, IMO, is a very terrible song.

Fantasia - I DVR'd right past her.
Jamie Foxx/Will I Am - gave it a shot but lyrically bad + overuse of autotune caused me to fast forward that as well.
