I have a theory about votes.
I actually did watch last week even though I said I wouldn't. I am so glad Scott is gone :D but I have to admit he sang pretty good last week which made me come up with this theory as to why he wasn't voted out earlier when he didn't sing as well. As it has been mentioned here and even printed in some papers, there is a group that votes for the worst singer each week as I understand it. The week before when Simon said Scott should pack his bags because he thought he'd be the one voted out, Constantine got voted out because these people that are voting for the worst contestant voted for Scott so he got more votes than Constantine. Now, on Tuesday, I believe Scott actually sang better than Anthony so my theory is these people voted for Anthony believing he was the worst singer that night. But of course it helps that Anthony has a lot of fans so Anthony got a lot of votes and Scott got the boot. Of course, this is only a theory. So, if this theory works, it could be possible that Anthony may stay in for another week. However, I don't think this theory will necessarily mean the worst singer will be voted the American Idol because near the end more people vote for their favorites.
Also, did you ever notice that the only one who has never been on the bottom is Carrie? |
Okay...so now that we don't have anything to complain about ( :rollpin: ), and now that it's two hours till showtime, who do you think will be going home this week? Of course, either Vonzell or Anthony. When I watched this show the first time ever was whan Lindsay was voted off and I pegged Bo and Carrie to be the final two. I'd love to see Anthony stay another week, but Vonzell is a much better singer than Anthony, from what I've seen. Very Whitney-ish. Anthony seems more inconsistent. We'll see how they do tonight. I'm going over to the idolonfox website to see if there are any rumors as to the theme. Last week they said it was going to be the old fifties/sixties songs and names the two guys (can't remember the names). I'll let you know if I find anything out.

Copied this from Yahoo Entertainment:
Still in the competition are BO BICE, ANTHONY FEDOROV, VONZELL SOLOMON and CARRIE UNDERWOOD. Last week the competition got twice as hard as each contestant now has to perform two songs live each week. This week the categories are Nashville and then "The Philadelphia Song," meaning songs written by the super writing team of KENNY GAMBLE and LEON HUFF. Looks like its going to be a great night for Carrie!! Should be interesting to see Anthony sing country/western :lol: Let's hope he does great!! Kris |
For some reason I have a feeling that Vonzell is leaving tomorrow - she did rather poorly tonight
|
Why did Paula ask Vonzell about her day? They say that making America ache for what is going on in her life. I am such a horrible reality tv person, hehe. My husband said he has a feeling Vonzell going home tomorrow as well. Carrie did good tonight but I wish Bo did better...oh well. We will see what happens tomorrow.

I hope this doesn't sound racist, but I thought Carrie singing an R&B song sounded like Trisha Yearwood singing R&B and Vonzell singing country sounded like Whitney Houston trying to sing a country song. It doesn't have anything to do with black and white, but Country and R&B, I think, have different keys and different styles all together. It was really awkward to see the girls being in the other's element seemed forced and a real stretch for both of them. I felt bad for them both having to acclimate to the other's element. Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of that Dixid Chicks song, either, but Carrie did it well. Of all the Country songs available out there, she could have picked one to showcase her pipes a little better...I always thought Natalie Maines more or less yells as opposed to sings...I can always picture her in a rodeo-themed bar, standing on her barstool yelling "Paarrrrrrrtaaaaaayyyyyy" in that same singing voice. I LIKE the Dixie Chicks, but maybe another Martina McBride song would have been a better choice for our Carrie. She kicked butt with Independence Day.
Anthony, on the other hand, slam-dunked both of his songs, imho. Bo did, as well. Although is first song (Bo), the country one, seemed kind of floundering or unorganized...never seemed to get traction for me. But he sang it well...he's awesome. Okay...gotta run...I think Vonzell is going home. Something tells me she's ready to go home...I think she misses her family from the way she was crying when she saw her dad. Very sweet, actually, but I think it's time. Kris |
I think the real reason Scott went home last week (FINALLY) is that the VoteForTheWorst.com website has gotten so much more publicity lately. While one would think this would cause an increase in votes for the worst contestant, I think what it did was just the opposite--it made the TRUE AI fans angry and got them to vote even MORE times for the GOOD contestants! VoteForTheWorst is now saying they should vote for Anthony as the worst remaining in the final 4, so we'll see if that has any effect on how this week goes.

:cry: I voted for Anthony probably 20 times. :cry: I know I don't like when people tie up the lines, but I was doing it because every single time I dialed it went through and I thought...uh-oh...this can't be good. The lines are wide open. Oh, well...I think Anthony will do well in a singing career. All four of the contestants tonight I think are exceptional. Vonzell is next week. Then, it's anybody's guess between Bo and Carrie. I'll be happy with either one!!

I am so disappointed with last nights results!! Anthony did probably the best, and he just got thrown under the bus!!!! Reason being I think is because he is so comparable to Clay Aiken....
I so cannot wait for Vonzell to go home...she is getting on my last nerve. She is so stuck on herself, and I am so sick of the fake kisses, and sympathy stuff. I think that is the only reason she skated by, she got the sympathy vote...There are plenty of music artists who have bad days..but do you see them going on Stage and Breaking down in tears???? |
I'm with you, Irish. I had a feeling when I saw her start to cry that Anthony would be out because people would feel bad for her. I do like Vonzell, but Anthony kicked butt on Tuesday and deserved to stay. I'll miss him...he reminded me of blonde Harry Potter. My mom and my DD are bummed. I was hoping the final 3 would be Carrie, Bo and Anthony. Then I don't care from there...it seems like the final three is the goal.
Oh...well...If Vonzell gets to stay next week and either Bo or Carrie get bumped before SHE does, I'll be REALLY mad!! Did you see Carrie tell Anthony she loves him? I wonder if they're dating or just really close friends...I thought it was nice that she cared so much. Kris |
I firmly believe that the final two should be Bo and Carrie. I wish Vonzell well, but I don't think she's as good of a singer as the other two, and I think Bo or Carrie could provide a refreshing, new sound as an Idol winner. However, remember what happened last year - some of the best singers were voted off leaving one strong and two weak voices as the final three.

I thought Vonzell might be the one voted off because her first song was terrible! I think she got some sympathy votes! Anthony was the only one who really nailed both songs, I thought, and he got voted off...which I kind of figured he would since I knew he would be either third or fourth to get voted off. Everyone else had one good song and one bad song. I loved Bo's version of "For the Love of Money"!!! Of course, didn't like his country song at all but he wasn't bad...never really is. Carrie was terrible on "If You Don't Know Me By Now" even if the accompaniament was off, that was not a good choice for her.

There's a "conspiracy theory" over on the idolonfox.com web-site that proposes the reason people are voted off is because the light that is shone behind them is red, while the light shone behind all the others is blue.
That was 1st brought out when Constantine was kicked off, but has proved "true" since then. Scott's light was red, as was Anthony's. The things people notice :) |
