American Idol 4/21/11 Top 7 Results – Who Got Voted Off American Idol Tonight

American Idol Fan — Fri, 22 Apr 2011 00:58:49 +0000

Last night’s 21st Century performances by the Top 7 were pretty darn good, but one of the contestants is getting the boot tonight. Online polls and predictions of who will be voted off each week have been notoriously wrong for weeks, so there’s no point in even attempting to predict tonight’s results. Some American Idol watchers feel it’s past the time for Stefano Langone to go home, and IF Dial Idol predictions are correct this time around, they may get their wish. But, Dial Idol hasn’t exactly been right on the money for some time now. According to DI, Stefano received the lowest number of votes and is most likely the contestant being sent home tonight. We’ll see about that when Ryan makes the announcement.

This is American Idol! The judges make their entrance, followed by Ryan Seacrest. Ryan says tonight is going to be “another difficult elimination”. The Top 7 will soon become the Top 6, as the contestants are introduced. Over 52 million votes came in last night, says Ryan. Katy Perry will be singing tonight, and David Cook will debut his latest single.

“Hey Soul Sister” by Train is being sung by Haley Reinhart, Lauren Alaina, Jacob Lusk and Stefano Langone. Nah, this group doesn’t really sound good together. Harmony is lacking.

The Ford commercial video “World” is played.

“Viva La Vida” by Cold Play is sung by Casey Abrams, Scotty McCreery and James Durbin. The guys at least sound better harmony-wise than the other group song did.

Casey is asked to stand up. Jacob also stands as requested. Both of these guys sounded very good last night, and the judges liked their performances. Jacob explains the music track mishap when he first began singing and how he just kept going. Casey is SAFE! Jacob is in the Bottom 3 tonight.

David Cook takes the stage singing his new single “The Last Goodbye” from his new album of the same name.

The Top 7 were treated to some fun activities during the week (when not rehearsing) like bowling, going to a Dodgers game, spa treatments, etc. Relaxation time for the contestants.

Lauren, James and Stefano are called center stage. Stefano is in the Bottom 3 tonight. James and Lauren are SAFE!

Haley and Scotty are called center stage. Scotty is SAFE and Haley is in the Bottom 3 tonight and takes a seat next to the two guys.

Bottom three: Haley Reinhart, Stefano Langone and Jacob Lusk.

Ryan whispered to Haley to follow him to the center stage and tells her she’s SAFE and returns to the couches. Haley is SAFE!

The Bottom 2 are Jacob Lusk and Stefano Langone. Who’s getting voted off tonight America?

Katy Perry sings her hit single E.T. with Kanye West from the album of the same name.

Jacob Lusk and Stefano Langone are center stage listening to the judges critiques of their performances and how far they’ve both come in the competition. They both have the summer tour and the finale to participate in, so no matter what happens, they have a future ahead of them in the music business.

Jacob Lusk is SAFE and Stefano Langone is voted off American Idol! Stefano closes the show singing “Lately”.

The American Idol Top 6:

* Lauren Alaina

* Scotty McCreery

* James Durbin

* Jacob Lusk

* Haley Reinhart

* Casey Abrams

See ya next week with the Top 6 contestants performances Wednesday night and the results show Thursday night to see who gets voted off next week.

American Idol Season 10 Schedule Air Dates Move to Wednesday and Thursday

American Idol Fan — Sun, 21 Nov 2010 16:01:57 +0000

American Idol Season 10 doesn’t start until January 2011 but FOX and AI’s Executive Producer Nigel Lythgoe have been very busy making big changes to the show in apparent hopes to revive the popularity and ratings of American Idol. Season 9 wasn’t very memorable in many people’s views, including mine. Simon Cowell ran off into the sunset to do X Factor, Kara DioGuardi got the boot, Paula Abdul has been gone awhile, leaving sole original judge Randy Jackson to carry on.

Yeah, we’ve got the new judges team of Randy Jackson, Jennifer Lopez and Steve Tyler on board. Yawn. Nigel Lythgoe announced recently that the Top 24 contestants is no more, but American Idol contestants will move right on to the Top 12 after Hollywood. AI is keeping the theme weeks, but the challenges contestants will face with the new season have increased.

According to TVGuide.com, there will be “contests to make the best music video, to promote themselves, and to work with a band and dancers for an awards show-style performance.” Whether or not American Idol will return to the early glory days of high ratings remains to be seen, but some industry observers are expecting ratings to decline from last year after the initial curiosity seekers get their fill. (LATimes)

American Idol fans have been anxious for new cd releases from their favorite AI contestants, and they’re needs have been met by new cd’s released from Season 9 winner Kris Allen, Adam “Glambert” Lambert, Crystal Bowersox, David Cook, Allison Iraheta, Lee DeWyze, Danny Gokey, Jordin Sparks, Chris Daughtry and even Tim Urban.

Previous American Idol contestants Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson cd and complete album downloads are on the top of many people’s to-do list this holiday season. Let’s also not forget to consider the popular who got kicked off American Idol boot song Leave Right Now by Will Young, played at the end of the show each time a contestant gets voted off, my personal favorite boot song to date.

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….

American Idol May 19, 2009 Top 2 Finale-Adam Lambert Kris Allen Face Off For The Win

American Idol Fan — Sun, 17 May 2009 23:43:30 +0000

UPDATE: Watch our LIVE American Idol Finale Adam Lambert vs Kris Allen Finale Showdown! The American Idol Finale on Wednesday, May 20, 2009 will be a real nail-biter, full of suspense to find out who will be the winner of American Idol 2009 Season 8. On Tuesday, May 19, 2009, Adam Lambert and Kris Allen will do their best to win your votes and become the crowned king of Season 8 on American Idol. Who will win American Idol Season 8 is anyone’s guess, but whoever wins the American Idol crown will have won due to having more votes than the other.

The official list of songs (spoilers) to be sung by Adam Lambert and Kris Allen haven’t been released, and typical American Idol Spoilers are often wrong until right after the American Idol Rehearsals are held and confirmed.

We do know that the American Idol Season 8 Finale will have three songs performed by the Top 2 Finalists, Adam Lambert and Kris Allen. Kris Allen won the coin toss and chose to have Adam Lambert sing first during the final show, instead of the typical “pimp spot” Adam’s been used to. Kris Allen will sing last and close the show on Tuesday night.

UPDATE 1: Adam Lambert is going to sing Change Is Gonna Come and Adam’s Personal Song Choice is Mad World “with a little twist”. Kris Allen is seriously considering “Falling Slowly” (or “Heartless”, but leaning more towards Falling Slowly). But then again, maybe not! Newest spoiler rumors are that Kris Allen was NOT rehearsing either Falling Slowly nor Heartless! See what I mean about “spoilers”?

UPDATE 2: Kris Allen will sing “What’s Goin On” (by Marvin Gaye) “Ain’t No Sunshine” tonight on American Idol!

UPDATE 3: Steve Martin will be breaking out his banjo to perform a tune from his album of banjo music, according to ET Online. OMG!

UPDATE 4: ROD STEWART will be performing on tomorrow night’s American Idol Finale!!!

Round 1 – The Contestant’s Favorite – Favorite song of the season, according to Idol host Ryan Seacrest
Round 2 – Simon Fuller’s Pick – Previously chosen by Clive Davis last year
Round 3 – The Winner’s Single Coronation Song – Only one winner/coronation song called “No Boundaries” will be performed this year, apparently co-written by Idol Judge Kara DioGuardi

Next week’s finale at Nokia Theatre will include a lineup of talent including performances by past American Idol winners Carrie Underwood (Season 4) and David Cook (Season 7). Lionel Richie, Carlos Santana, Cyndi Lauper, Queen Latifah, Jason Mraz, Black Eyed Peas and Keith Urban are also among the artists scheduled to perform on Wednesday’s Finale before either Kris Allen or Adam Lambert is crowned the Season 8 winner.

Idol producers are trying to get as many Idol winners back for the Finale as humanly possible. Keith Urban will perform a duet with Kris Allen – Cyndi Lauper performs a duet with Allison Iraheta. Rumors across the net claim that Idol producers are trying to get David Bowie to sing a duet with Adam Lambert. Danny Gokey will duet with Lionel Richie and Santana will perform with all of the Idol contestants in attendance. Rumors are that Britney Spears will perform on American Idol but Perez Hilton says No she won’t.

UPDATE: Bad news: The David Bowie/Adam Lambert duet fell through. Darn it! That would have been very cool! Theres like a 5% chance it will happen so they are still working on someone to perform with Adam at the finale.

The American Idol 2009 Finale showdown can’t come soon enough for Idol fans, Adam Lambert and Kris Allen fans. Vote, Vote, Vote, Vote and Vote some more! There are 4 hours of voting time available for your votes! Who will win American Idol 2009? What songs should Adam Lambert and Kris Allen choose to repeat on Tuesday night as their contestant’s favorite?

American Idol Fan — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 02:00:14 +0000

Who got voted off American Idol 4-1-09? After last night’s American Idol Top Downloads night of Idol performances, American Idol fans are anxious to know who got voted off tonight on American Idol? We’re LIVE blogging the results show as it happens, bringing Idol fans the breakdown of everything that happened during the American Idol results show. The Idol judges weren’t too impressed with several of last night’s Idol performances, and we couldn’t agree more with their reviews and criticisms of song choice and outfits. Remember Randy Jackson’s reaction to Allison Iraheta’s outfit saying, “What are you wearing?!” Hopefully you voted for your favorite American Idol after last night’s show ended, and tonight’s results will be very interesting. Idol predictions all over the net say that Megan Joy will be voted off tonight, but after watching Scott MacIntyre perform his best attempt at “Just The Way You Are”, both Megan and Scott are predicted to be in the Bottom 3 tonight. Will the judges use their save “veto vote” tonight for the Idol contestant with the lowest number of votes? Who got voted eliminated from American Idol tonight?

Ryan Seacrest said “over 36 million votes” came in after last night’s Idol performances by the Top 9. Randy Jackson says the Idol contestants picked the wrong songs and that maybe the genre of Top Downloads was too big. Adam Lambert gets special mention by Ryan Seacrest and Paula Abdul. Asked who he thinks should be worried of being voted off, Simon Cowell says Megan, Anoop and Scott were the three on his list.

The Top 9 Finalists contestants performed Journey’s hit song “Don’t Stop Believin” as a group performance, and it sounded pretty darn good! As I expected, Adam Lambert and Danny Gokey hit the high notes with spectacular precision!

The Top 9 Ford Video was shown and a pre-taped video of the “typical Idol week” with photo shoots, rehearsals and Idol Mania fans going wild for their favorite Idol contestants.

The Results are in! Who is safe? Who are in the bottom 3?

Past American Idol winner, David Cook, takes the stage to sing “Come Back To Me“. I am definitely going to download David Cook’s song as soon as American Idol is over! That performance was HOT and the audience loved it too! David Cook said his tour is being extended and I sure hope he’s coming to our town! David Cook was then presented with a plaque signifying his self-titled David Cook album going Platinum! Congratulations to David on his accomplishments thus far and those yet to come! Watch Video of David Cook singing “Come Back To Me” on American Idol.

Here come the Results!

Bottom Three American Idol Performers:

Megan Joy (as expected and predicted)

Allison Iraheta (I’m not too surprised)

Anoop Desai (I really thought it would be Scott!)

Lady GaGa takes the stage to sing “Poker Face“. I must admit to not being very familiar with Lady Gaga’s music, but she can definitely play that piano. The American Idol audience and judges loved Lady GaGa’s performance, giving her a standing ovation. Lady GaGa fans can download “Poker Face” on iTunes. Watch Video of Lady GaGa singing “Poker Face” on American Idol.

American Idol Host, Ryan Seacrest, asked Simon Cowell which of the Bottom 3 contestants were worth saving with a veto vote and Simon said “1″. Anoop Desai is safe and sent back to sit with the other Idol contestants. Ryan Seacrest asked Simon if there was a chance of saving Megan Joy with a veto vote and Simon “not a chance”. Ouch! That was pretty cut-throat Simon!

Megan Joy was voted off and eliminated from American Idol Season 8. Good luck to you Megan! Watch Video of Megan Joy get voted off.

Breakdown list of the guys and girls who are safe:

Danny Gokey is Safe

Lil Rounds is Safe

Anoop Desai is Safe

Matt Giraud is Safe

Scott MacIntyre is Safe

Kris Allen is Safe

Allison Iraheta is Safe

Adam Lambert is Safe
