AMERICAN IDOL TOP 13 LIVE RESULTS SHOW UPDATES HERE
What a night in American Idol 10 tonight! This season probably has the best talents so far. Everyone’s inching up their game. While some have a tendency to drowse off the audience, there were a lot who made an effort to make a mark. Here’s what I think about their performances:
Lauren has probably one of the best singing voices in the competition. She reminds me much of a hybrid between Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson. This girl is forgettable tonight, given a lot of performances were the bomb. With her singing first, I won’t be surprised if she makes it to the Bottom 3. But definitely, her performance is not one of the bottom, neither one at the top.
This guy seems to be singing his finale song already. Casey is clearly the frontrunner in the boys category. I won’t be surprised if he makes it to the Final. But I’d love for him to do Elliott Yamin rather than be borefest Taylor Hicks. As of the moment, Casey is #2 in my list.
Ashthon makes a Diana Ross. She’s great. Her voice is great but the star appeal isn’t there. She’s probably going to be in the bottom three for not being so popular. But then, Syesha Mercado made it to the Final 3, too. This is anybody’s game. With that solid performance, she’d probably have another shot.
Paul makes an awkward song choice, and a dorky performance tonight. It was unique but I don’t know if it’s something people would go crazy about. His David Cook-ish charm though, might still put him through. He’s too Damien Rice meets Coldplay to me. If he does good in the future, then he’ll probably be one to look out for.
Pia Toscano – All By Myself
Pia Toscano makes us love her more and more every week. Her performance was solid and at par. I remember Carrie Underwood but Latina in her. This girl would go far. The one to beat in the competition. She’s the type that even if you don’t give her the pimp spot, she’ll deliver and she’ll get a lot of votes. With three Latin decent in the competition though, it might be a sad support for the other two, Stefano Langone and Karen Rodriguez.
We’ve heard Adam Lambert before, and he’s not even as good as he is. But his boyish charm, unlike Adam, makes him quite safe at least for another round. For me, he’s in the top of the pack right now, but if people get tired of his music and all the screaming, this guy won’t go so far.
I’d agree with Randy on this one. Haley was snorefest tonight but she’s better than Karen Rodriguez, at the very least. She’ll probably be the America’s sweetheart, ala Kristy Lee Cook, this season so I doubt she’ll be going home. What I liked about American Idol 10 is that it felt like season 2, 3 and 4 again. Things are not so predictable, everyone’s great.
What I like about Stefano is that he always adds a new flavor in his singing and he has the looks. People, your new Kris allen has arrived. This guy has passion and the spunk to win people’s hearts. His performance tonight made him someone to look out for.
That’s probably the most boring performance I heard thus far in AI history. Even Julie Zorrilla’s failure in Breakway is better than that. I’m afraid Karen would go home this week.
The jazzy beat was awkward and there were some pitchy notes in the performance. Her voice quality’s good. This girl will probably safe for another week.
I’m never a fan of this kind of country music. But in fairness to him, he has an amazing deep voice. But this is Idol and versatility is one thing. Scotty may charm a few more weeks but he won’t be this year’s winner.
Stunner Naima this week! Never thought she’ll sing that song. But it paid off, she’s probably at the middle of the pack now. But I agree with someone’s comment over Rickey.org, she should control her breathing when she sings. It was a spectacular ending to a great performance night.

This week, only two performances wowed me, two were so-so and one Idol finalist has just ended his Idol journey.
Here’s my American Idol Top 5 Power Ranking
1. LEE DEWYZE
If this guy won’t win, it will really be an upset. This guy has slowly become America’s favorite. He’s definitely giving us some wild performances. I recall David Cook’s journey and his – are similar. I also feel the same vibe when David Cook won over Archuleta years ago.
2. AARON KELLY
For the second straight week, Aaron did well! He nailed Fly Me to the Moon. He is surprising a lot of people right now – he may be on his way to the Top 2.
3. MICHAEL LYNCHE
Michael played safe and did well. But of course. This guy is also a potential Final 2 contender. But he’s just boring as hell.
4. CRYSTAL BOWERSOX
Two weeks with so-so performances, Crystal’s on her way to the Gokey train. She’s probably the hyped contestant this season to finish at third place.
Lastly, Casey James did the worst this week. And if he still survives, this competition will be pretty boring.
It’s so sad that American Idol 9 started with a bunch of talented artists – we’ve got Ashley Rodriguez, John Park, Janell Wheeler, Joe Munoz, Alex Lambert, Lilly Scott – all who have been eliminated midway at the semifinals. We also have Katie Stevens and Didi Benami who were eliminated early at the Finals phase of the competition. I am seriously losing faith that the true winner of the competition is still at the list of remaining contestants namely: Michael Lynche, Casey James, Crystal Bowersox, Siobhan Magnus, Lee Dewyze and Aaron Kelly. Out of these six, I personally like Lee and Siobhan, and I find Aaron inching up the competition every single week. Crystal Bowersox and Michael Lynche appear to be overhyped while Casey James is just a pretty face.
You can see how frustrated I am when my post about American Idol doesn’t start with a ‘wow’ or doesn’t even include the word ‘amazing’ in the first paragraph. And yes, I am frustrated. If Lee Dewyze or Aaron Kelly doesn’t win this, American Idol 9 failed this season to deliver us the true idol.
American Idol 9 Top 6 Performances is Shania Twain week and everyone did really well, though I must say this is such a weak week for a Top 6 performance night – a couple of great performances made the night interesting.
If you are a fan of Kris Allen and if you are a Filipino going gaga on why Kris Allen has not set his foot in the Philippines yet, then do not fret as Kris Allen is in Manila for Musicfest 2010! A lot of fans are now asking when is KRIS ALLEN in Manila? Well, TODAY is the DAY! Kris Allen is indeed in Manila!
Hit American singing reality TV show American Idol will be hitting the screens on January 13 (Wednesday, +8 GMT, Philippine Time). American Idol will bring back Randy Jackson, Kara DioGuardi and Simon Cowell as judges for its ninth season. Ellen DeGeneres, last September 9, was announced to be Paula Abdul’s replacement as the fourth judge of American Idol 9.
“I’m thrilled to be the new judge on American Idol. I’ve watched since the beginning, and I’ve always been a huge fan. So getting this job is a dream come true, and think of all the money I’ll save from not having to text in my vote! Hopefully I’m the people’s point of view because I’m just like you. I sit at home and I watch it. I’m not looking at it in a critical way from the producer’s mind. I’m looking at it as a person who is going to buy the music and is going to relate to that person,” Ellen de Generes said.
She will be replacing Paula Abdul and will be with the current judges Randy Jackson, Kara Dioguardi, Simon Cowell.
