Jermaine could have a definite following on the show, though. And, after seeing how much time they devoted to him last night, I think we were being set up for his inclusion.
One other thing...I enjoy country music but I was surprised to see how many country singers are in the Final 24. After all the broohaha over last year's two country finalists, I think the country singers this year may be eliminated early on.

The look may be on girls side but the guys side most look scruffy. Also some may not like country but Idol has produced two country idols.

This is going to get old if they always do this---it won't be much of a surprise!

That is exactly what is going on here, they both shows run on same format.

Me too and the things posted on his Facebook page kinda add up.
On his FB wall on one of his fans ask if it was him and his dad said we cant say. I checked his dads FB page and it has him located in Hollywood and one of his dads likes is Idol chatter.
As you mention we didnt get to see Johnny group perform in Vegas, Johnny on his FB page said he was going to Illinois to sing National Anthem then he later posted he wasnt instead was chilling in hottub or practicing. He and his dad just went to Nashville.
Here an interview he just gave, He getting alot of exposure for a voted off contestant.
Idol Chat: 14 of the Top 24 Revealed | FOX2now.com
Also FauX news reporter questions seem crafted
As mention this same thing XFactor did and Idol loves drama so they spiced it up by doing it this way.
If you guys remember JLO and Randy said he was going to be a Star during his audition.
His had over 2,000 friends come aboard on his FB page with just auditions and they know Johnny will attract Idol targeted audience, sales and fill up seats at Idol concerts. As Johnny is like the Elvis to Idol fan base.
So I have no doubt its Johnny, but I was liking competition without him as he over qualified. I predicted Scotty was going to be Idol last season and Johnny will be same unless they pull Adam Lambert on him.
You would think I would be ecstatic but I am not as I thought we have good competitors this year without Johnny.
My vote will be going to Chelsea Sortell as she beautiful, sweet and from my state the Idol winner maker state of North Carolina
Johnny already has a huge fan base they will carry him through.
Idol loves drama and we have seen alot already, I wonder what there next stunt will be to attract viewers and create buzz around water coolers.
