American Idol Recap: The Surprising and Sad Final 12
OK America. I realize part of the American Idol drama is the fact that good people are going to be voted off early and sucktastic people are going to be allowed to stay. But this is getting a little ridiculous.
Katie Stevens and Paige Miles are allowed to sing another day, but Lilly Scott and Katelyn Epperly are finito? I do appreciate the presence of mind to keep Andrew Garcia over Todrick Hall, but Adam Lambert goes and Tim Urban is STILL going to torture us with sub-par performances for yet another week? What’s next? I swear, if Crystal Bowersox goes home next week, I am never watching American Idol ever again.
Or, I will at least boycott for a solid two weeks.
It sure does make you wonder about all those conspiracy theorists who say the votes are rigged, because in a season that had audiences complaining that this group lacked pizazz, there certainly was an increase in drama last night. Between Adam crying his little mullet off and Lilly Scott basically telling off America after being voted off by saying “I don’t know what America wants to hear,” it was hands down the most exciting results show of 2010.
But I’m still pissed.
I agree! But I hope Lilly Scott finds a different avenue. It is a quick trip to the top but she is more than just an American Idol contestant. I guess I have to start voting for Crystal Bowersox. I love her ability and more her scary teeth and the honesty of dissing American Idol at the beginning but realizing she needed it for her son. awesome. Keep up the great writing.
