Suddenly, Ryan butted in and accused Simon of never liking Sanjaya. He then proceeded to grill the other two judges on their negative comments. What the hell? That really pissed me off. I know that Simon is often times too mean and that Ryan sticks up for the contestants, but he went way overboard when he berated Simon for several minutes, then went after Paula and Randy as well. Ryan isn't a producer or a performer. He knows nothing about music and should just shut the hell up. And ugh, of all people, why defend Sanjaya? His head is swelled enough as it is. He has his own universe, remember?
I have a bad feeling that Phil may leave this week, in spite of finally receiving positive remarks from all three judges. It's happened before, and it can happen again. Although Chris was technically worse than him, I think that Chris has more fans that Phil. Of course, my ultimate dream is to finally see Smugjaya go home, but sadly I don't think it's time yet.
Who will go home: Phil
Who should go home: Sanjaya

Check this out, dawg (how many times does Randy have to say that anyway), you nailed that episode, I totally agree. However I am thinking the bottom three will be Phil, Chris and am I too naive to hope Sanjaya? And that Chris will go home. I am so tired of watching him do his sensitive cow eyed look at the camera.
And it's funny, I had been rooting for Lakisha all along, but I'm seeing attitude too. I'm hoping for a showdown of Melinda and Jordin. If Sanjaya makes it to the top three, the show will be ruined for me.

Sanji, seems to be just walking through the songs now. No effort since he is getting votes for no reason. I think Chris will go home and Ryan was a jackass saying that Simon has always hated Sanji... he hates people that dont try.

I think Simon rolled his eyes because Chris made the Virginia Tech comment almost immediately after talking back about his nasal voice. Methinks it irritated him.
But, hey, what do I know?
P.S.: SANJAYA HAS THE LOWEST NUMBER OF VOTES ON DIALIDOL!!!...but it's been wrong a lot this season, so it could be very wrong now.

Ann- The bottom 2 will definitely have Phil and Chris. I'm hoping that Sanjaya will join them.
Albanesse- Ryan was way out of line with what he did. And wow, you're right about the Dialidol predictions. One can dream.

Whoops, sorry blah, the Dialidol comment was meant to be addressed to you.

I really don't think Sanjaya is going anywhere (Smugjaya - ha! but his face did fall a bit when Simon said he was as bad as the auditioneers at the start of the show), so I'm not gonna say anything about him.
I think Lakisha, Chris and Phil will be bottom three.
Lakisha coz it was really bad and shrieky in bits, Chris coz I can't stand him on a good day and his stupid comment about being nasally was so made up on the spot, its not even funny.
I tried listening to Phil with my eyes shut and for the first time I got what all the guest judges have been raving about. Still won't keep him out of bottom three.
The guy who should be in the bottom three and won't (pity) is Blake who had zero connection to his song. He looked like he was desperate to find something to beatbox about and the choreography was completely out of whack and he didnt look like he understood what he was singing.
I swear I'll start a Hate the ChrisBlake Campaign if they do that annoying fratboy handshake this week. ugh. why do i hate so many contestants this year?

Well it wasn't as awful as I thought it would be. Seriously. Lakisha can sing but she has no originality. NONE. I think it will be her and Sanjaya in the bottom two tonight.
I actually liked Phil's song and as always Jordin surpirsed and delighted me.

Amrita- It's possible for LaKisha to be in the bottom 3. Technically, she's almost as good as Melinda, but personality goes a long way, and she's just radiating too much of the "diva bitch" vibes for people to like her.
As for Blake, the more I think of it, the more I should have demoted him to a B-. His performance felt so forced. Who knew that country week would be the hardest for him?
Sean- Jordin is great. Sometimes she sings music that's a little too old-fashioned for her, but overall she's so well-rounded that she'd do well in almost any genre. Plus, she's a sweet girl.

Melinda looks like the Funzo doll.
Simon did roll his eyes. I don't think it was a knock against VT but he sould be careful since perception is all that matters on TV. Chris (he said he was born in Virginia and raised in NC by the way) was a little, tad cocky there. Take it in buddy. No. Nasal is not a form of singing. Lame.
As the son of an accomplished tailor I will say this about Ryan: now that's a mean set of threads he wears.
Sanjaya. Seriously to all you people who think him to be an inspiration should be nootered and not be allowed to raise children. It has become obvious that he does not work all that hard. Hubris is getting the better of him. And why should he work? People have propped him up and justified his position with all sorts of nonsense. He has not grown one iota. Meanwhile, Jordin - she of similar age - continues to excel.
Guess who is far more professional and mature? Yet, people will continue to hand votes over to someone with little merit. That was simply debauchery what he did to that song. As I have said before, my fear is that he begins to outlast the better more talented SINGERS.
Unreal.

Why did Ryan defend Sanjaya so vehemently, you ask? Because Sanjaya beign on the show is getting them increased ratings, and they want to ride on his ridiculous coattails for as long as possible. This infuriates me to no end, and I cannot wait to see this punk gone. Check out my recap, or sign my petition

Okay, I don't believe it. This is a cruelly dragged out April Fool's Joke they're playing on me. I'm going to keep my eyes shut and you tell me - is he gone? IS HE REALLY GONE????

Amrita- I am grinning from ear to ear right now!!!
