American Idol 3/17/11 Top 12-Who Got Voted Off American Idol?

American Idol Fan — Fri, 18 Mar 2011 01:00:02 +0000

“This is American Idol”! Tonight we learn who received the lowest number of votes after the Idol’s Top 12 performed the theme “Songs From The Year They Were Born”, and who will be voted off tonight.

Video clips of what each of the Top 12 hoped to become as adults are shown, with more baby pictures, and judges comments from last night’s performances. “America Has Spoken” ends the video clip.

Randy Jackson, Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez take the stage, and Ryan Seacrest follows the judges. Lee DeWyze is scheduled to perform tonight, as are The Black Eyed Peas. The Top 12 enter the stage singing a song medley of popular hits including Born To Be Wild, amongst others.

The “Val Kilmer” Ford video is shown. Lame. American Idol is celebrating their 10th year, with millions of Idol music downloads, and each of the audience members are given a free copy of the anniversary cd. Still no announcement of how many votes were received last night.

Jacob Lusk, Casey Abrams and Lauren Alaina are invited to the middle of the stage. Judges comments about each of their performances. Jacob Lusk is safe! Lauren Alaina is safe! Casey Abrams is safe too!

Haley Reinhart and Paul McDonald are called to the stage. Ryan repeats the judges comments from last night for both Haley and Paul. One of them is safe and the other is in the bottom 3. Haley is the first contestant in the bottom 3 tonight, and Paul McDonald is safe.

Lee DeWyze performs his new single “Beautiful Like You”. Hopefully his appearance on Idol tonight will help boost his career and record sales, but I haven’t heard any of Lee’s songs on the radio at all. Maybe I’m not listening to the ‘right’ radio stations to hear Lee’s work, but his music really isn’t my thang anyway.

Scotty McCreery, Pia Toscano and James Durbin are brought to center stage. More repeating judges comments from last night. Scotty McCreery is safe! Pia Toscano is safe! James Durbin is safe!

Stefano Langone and Naima Adedapo are brought center stage. One is safe and the other is in the bottom 3. Naima is in the bottom 3, along with Haley. Stefano Langone is safe!

Thia Megia and Karen Rodriguez take center stage. Each promise they can do so much more than we’ve seen so far, after the judges comments. One is safe and the other is in the bottom 3. Thia Megia is safe!

The Bottom 3 are Karen Rodriguez, Haley Reinhart and Naima Adedapo tonight. Will the judges use their one save vote to keep one of these ladies on the show? Doubtful.

The Black Eyed Peas sing “Just Can’t Get Enough”.

Out of the selected bottom three Idol contestants, Naima is safe and returns to the couch! The Bottom 2 are Haley Reinhart and Karen Rodriguez. The person is danger of leaving and being voted off American Idol is Karen Rodriguez! Haley is safe!

Karen sings “Hero” in English/Spanish combo in hopes of receiving the judges save vote. Do the judges save Karen Rodriguez? Randy Jackson says the judges decision is they will NOT use the save. Karen Rodriguez got voted off American Idol tonight.

The Season 10 American Idol Top 11 are:

Lauren Alaina

Casey Abrams

Paul McDonald

Pia Toscano

James Durbin

Haley Reinhart

Jacob Lusk

Thia Megia

Stefano Langone

Scotty McCreery

Naima Adedapo

That’s it tonight! See ya next week with a recap of what songs the Top 11 choose to sing and the judges remarks following each of their performances, and who is likely to be sent home. Stay tuned!

The American Idol Winner will be announced tonight on FOX for the 2 Hour Idol Grand Finale starting at 8 p.m. EST, and we’re LIVE with the May 20, 2009 American Idol Finale Results Show Recap, complete with American Idol Final performances, “Surprise” Guest Performances, Duets, VIDEOS and the announcement of Who Won American Idol 2009 between Adam Lambert and Kris Allen!

“THIS IS AMERICAN IDOL!!!” Just under 100 MILLION Votes came in, record setting number of 624 Million votes this season! Ryan introduces the Idol judges Randy Jackson, Kara DioGuardi, Paula Abdul and Simon Cowell.

Kris Allen and Adam Lambert walk down the stairs onto the stage. Audience going wild. Both are “nervous and excited”. Clips of LIVE broadcasts in San Diego (hosted by Carly Smithson) and Arkansas (hosted by Michaela Gordon) of fans waiting to hear who wins the American Idol crown tonight.

The Top 13 are singing “So What” by Pink. All the contestants are wearing white outfits, looking good. Group performances usually suck, and this is one isn’t much different. Pitchy in places, and finally over. Whew. VIDEO

David Cook is singing “Permanent“, the tribute song to his brother Adam who died recently from brain cancer. 100% of proceeds go to David’s charity “ABC Square”. David Cook’s single will go on sale immediately following the show tonight, so be sure to download it on iTunes! David Cook’s performance is spectacular, a blockbuster if there ever was one! The emotional performance, with David having tears in his eyes, was phenomenal. “It’s a tough song” says David to Ryan. VIDEO

Ryan is handing out the “Golden award” trophy for the worst Idol contestant wannabe from Season 8. Ugh…, the sound of these voices is painful. The winner is…. Nick Mitchell who attempted to sing “And I Am Telling You” during auditions. Oh No, Nick is now singing I’m Not Going AGAIN!!! Please No!!! Whew, that’s finally over.

Lil Rounds and Queen Latifah DUET Performance – “Cue The Rain” – Latifah doesn’t appear to really be singing and Lil Rounds is all over the place.

Alexis Grace, Anoop Desai and Jason Mraz singing “I’m Yours”. Alexis started off very off-key, but all in all, not too bad. VIDEO

Video clip of “Journey of Kris Allen” on American Idol Season 8.

Kris Allen and Keith Urban duet “Kiss A Girl” performance. Kris and Keith are playing guitar, uptempo, sounding really good. VIDEO

The Top 13 Idol girls start singing “Glamorous” by Fergie, then bring Fergie out to sing “Big Girls Don’t Cry”. Megan Joy and Jasmine Murray sucked big time!

The Black Eyed Peas are singing “Boom Boom Pow” with lots of censoring. Idol cuts out momentarily to show just the show logo and cuts off the sound during the ahem… questionable lyrics. VIDEO

More freak awards. It’s Katrina the “Bikini Girl”. She’s singing too, or at least trying to, wearing a bikini of course. Kara DioGuardi helps her on stage with the singing, and opens her black dress to reveal a black bikini!!! OMG!

Allison Iraheta and Cyndi Lauper duet performance “Time After Time”. Cyndi’s playing the autoharp. Not bad at all. VIDEO

Danny Gokey sings “Hello” and then the duet medley performance with Lionel Richie of some of Lionel’s hits. Very good performance. VIDEO

The “Journey of Adam Lambert” on American Idol clips.

Adam Lambert sings “Beth” then the duet performance rocking with KISS singing “Rock-n-Roll All Night”. The Nokia Theatre Idol House is Rockin Tonight! Adam’s wearing a weird outfit with wings, and KISS (and Adam) are wearing those hideously high heeled platform shoes KISS is known for. Too funny. Awesome duet performance! VIDEO

Carlos Santana, playing guitar to “Black Magic Woman” and “Smooth” with the Top 13 Idol performers. Santana is simply spectacular! VIDEO

Final Ford Video “I Will Remember You” with Adam Lambert and Kris Allen. David Cook surprises Kris Allen and Adam Lambert with keys to a brand new Ford Fusion. VIDEO

Steve Martin playing banjo as Michael Sarver and Megan Joy destroy their duet song performance “Pretty Flowers” written by Steve Martin. Michael and Megan both sounded out of breath throughout the entire song, pitchy all over the place. Just BAD. VIDEO

The Top Idol guys sing Rod Stewart’s “If You Think I’m Sexy”. Rod Stewart takes the stage to sing “Maggie“. Rod is an icon, but he doesn’t sound good tonight, verrrry verrrry pitchy. How old is Rod Stewart anyway? I love ya Rod, but yikes……not a good performance. VIDEO

Oh Lord, one more Golden Award for the Idol wannabe’s. Ouch. Tatiana Del Toro wins and runs onto the stage to get her award, and starts singing while Ryan says “we have to take a break” and runs around the stage to avoid “security”. Planned….

Adam Lambert and Kris Allen are singing “We Are The Champions” with Queen! Surprise Guest Performance is QUEEN!!! Yes! Yes! Yes! AWESOME PERFORMANCE!!! Definitely worth downloading on iTunes after the show! AWESOME!!! Great harmony! VIDEO

THIS IS IT!!! The American Idol Finale 2009 Results Are In from last night’s performance. Lights are dimmed and here we go….

The Winner Of American Idol 2009 is……………………KRIS ALLEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Â VIDEO

Major Upset Shocker for Adam Lambert fans! I bet Simon Cowell is shocked!!! Kris says “Adam deserves this”. Kris Allen is awarded the winner’s trophy. Kris says “Oh My God, I don’t even know, thank you so much”.

Kris Allen sings the Coronation Song “No Boundaries”. Kris Allen Wins American Idol 2009!!! The Confetti falls onto the Idol stage, everyone’s hugging and clapping.
