I know that not much about IDOL is fair -- but I think the wildcard will be one of the three who actually did sing for his life.

I also think it would be unfair for it to be Johnny after everyone else had to do the work and be under the stress. Wasn't he one of the ones shown out in the pool saying everyone else was all stressed but they were relaxing in the pool? It was my feeling they didn't show much about him being eliminated because he seemed kind of arrogant in that clip. JMHO

Should be a great season...lots of talent this year!

That relaxing-in-the-pool-scene has been rumored to have reflected very poorly on Johnny and was supposedly one of the reasons that he was eliminated. It's been reported, as well, that, after not being concerned about rehearsing, he had a very poor performance. And the third straw was his continuing to perform when that girl in his group fainted.

But IDOL is all about publicity, whether bad or good. It wouldnt be "fair" to bring him back and it would, understandably, result in tension among the other contestants -- but I could see IDOL doing just that.

I think the producers manufactured to let the viewers believe the hot tub scene led to their decision.
I found on Idol site the group scene Johnny was in. In this performance he did ok but he only a small solo in the group performance. I thought Aubrey was the best of that group.
The clip is video 16 of 20 called 'Wake Up Little Susie' Be My Baby - Vegas performances - American Idol (http://www.americanidol.com/videos/season_11/vegas_performances/ - broken link)

Remember when I posted he was going to sing national anthem and posted where he was going later that day then later in the day, thanks to AI editing he posted he was not going and was going to end up chilling in hot tub or practicing.. He was really going.

AI love to find ways to create buzz about it show. I am sure during top 24 we are going to have another shocker. It would be cool with talent this year the top 12 all have successful careers.

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.
I've been bored with it, i thought way to much drama this year. I didn't even notice that there were alot of country singers. That makes me happy, i love country.

Here is a link I found with a spoiler for the contestant that they say will be brought back. I have no idea how reliable it is. Can't wait to see who it is!

BLESS YOU!! I'd say it's pretty reliable!!! Many other spoiler sites are saying the same thing! And also about the 13th female finalist, as well.

Spoiler
I had thought (and hoped) it would be Jermaine. We were being set up for him to come back, just by the amount of time they devoted to his being cut. If it is him, I'm SO happy for him!!

Heehjun Han's twitters are very funny (no surprise there):

Twitter


Check out the tweeter photos on his page:

Deandre with his hair hanging into a bowl and Heejun tweeting "WOOOO NOODLE FOR LUNCH!!"

Colton sleeping and Heejun with scissors, tweeting "DONT FALL ASLEEP FRONT OF ASIAN MAN"

OH my GOSH. i just read a couple of different interviews with Heejun, one from the New York Post.
I was laughing and crying from his answers. What a cool kid.
The things that caught me most off guard was that his family didn't even know he could sing, and he tried out for AI so he could get publicity and money for the organization he works for.
Makes me an even bigger fan
