Actually, nung season 5 palang, wala na talagang laban yan. Kasi mas magagaling yung mga singers noon kaysa ngayong season. Noon kasi lahat ng natira ang gagaling talaga. Mahirap pumili. Ngayon, marami sa lalaki ang mahihina talaga. Puro safe yung songs nila. Yung mga kinakanta nila yung mga mellow. Takot silang mag all out. Pero yung mga babae bigay todo talaga. Kaya boto ako doon kay La Kisha at Melinda. Di ko lang alam kung tama spelling ko pero silang dalawa ang mga manok ko doon. Ang gagaling talaga. Walang effort sa pagkanta at swabeng swabe. Kaya naman ang puri sa kanila, kahit si Simon eh ganon nalang. Amazing ang Fantastic. :thumbsup:

American Idol' axes 2 more finalists
By ERIN CARLSON, Associated Press Writer
NEW YORK - With no one ousted at the end of last week's charity-focused show, "American Idol" gave the heave-ho to two contestants Wednesday night — Phil Stacey and Chris Richardson.
The viewer vote tally from last week was added to this week's, with more than 135 million phone and text-message ballots cast in all. Stacey, 29, of Jacksonville, Fla., and Chris Richardson, 22, of Chesapeake, Va., drew the fewest votes. With their departure, the number of finalists is down to four. The winner will be chosen May 23.
Randy Jackson said on Tuesday's program that Stacey's take on Bon Jovi's "Blaze Of Glory" was his "best performance ever." Stacey — a "good man," said host Ryan Seacrest — performed that song one last time on Wednesday, as LaKisha Jones and other finalists wiped away tears.
Richardson, a
Justin Timberlake lookalike, hugged "best friend" and finalist Blake Lewis when Seacrest announced he was going home.
"Thank you to everybody for keeping me in this long," said Richardson, before giving a farewell performance of "Wanted Dead Or Alive" — again, by Bon Jovi.
And the final four are — drumroll, please — Jones, Lewis, Jordin Sparks and Melinda Doolittle.
Wednesday's program also featured performances by Robin Thicke and Bon Jovi, the multiplatinum band whose shaggy-haired lead singer was this week's guest coach.
In its sixth season, "American Idol" continues to rule the ratings. It has attracted 26 million to 37 million viewers per telecast this season.

malas lang si chris kasi natapat sa ganitong crucial part ng competition yung rock theme, tapos bon jovi pa..i still think mas magaling sya kay lakisha. natutuwa kasi ako, kitang kita ko si justin timberlake sa kanya. pero magaling sya talaga.

American Idol 6: Lakisha Jones Eliminated, Now 3 On American Idol
http://www.postchronicle.com/news/entertainment/tittletattle/article_21279749.shtml
American Idol 6 - Lakisha Jones has been eliminated. Last night's episode of 'American Idol' featured former Bee Gees singer, Barry Gibb who was on hand to coach the four remaining Idol hopefuls.
However, it certainly wasn't one of the more popular shows.
Idol final four Blake Lewis, Melinda Doolittle, LaKisha Jones, and Jordin Sparks all sang two songs apiece, they got critical reviews from that famous panel of three.
The four finalists averaged 25.5 million viewers, according to ratings that were released on Wednesday afternoon.
TV Envy points out that all four competitors received at least one round of less-than-stellar reviews from the AI judges, three people who obviously were expecting to be blown away at last night’s live show and ended up feeling let down.
But then again what did you really expect from Bee Gees night?
LaKisha Jones started to fade shortly after she was in the final 12. At one point she was one of the front runners to win the competition. However, she never did live up to expectations.
Poor song choices and a generous amount of criticism from the judges contributed to her downfall.
It's too bad, she was easily still one of the strongest voices in this season's competition. Goodbye, LaKisha!
Jordin Sparks is safe and so is Melinda Doolittle. Blake Lewis will beat box for another week.
boyTi899 17th May '07 Thu, 12:47 Melinda goes home.
"American Idol" final pits personality vs youth"
"American Idol" voters kicked the most experienced professional singer out of the running on Wednesday to put a chirpy male contestant and a 17-year-old girl with a huge voice into the final round of the smash hit TV talent contest.
Miranda Doolittle, 29, a long-time backup singer who has stunned the show's judges and viewers with her voice since entering the competition as a super-shy contestant, was voted out in a closely fought contest by a telephone vote.
Her departure leaves Blake Lewis, 25, and Jordin Sparks, 17, as the finalists in the sixth season of "American Idol," which has produced a list of successful recording stars from its winners -- and its losers.
"You already have made it," said Paula Abdul, one of the three judges on the Fox network series that ranks as America's most popular television show.
Acerbic fellow judge Simon Cowell, who has backed Doolittle as a singer throughout the contest was full of praise.
"Congratulations to you. You are one heck of a singer," he said.
Doolittle, from Brentwood, Tennessee, entered the annual contest with years of experience as a backup singer while Sparks, of Glendale, Arizona, has won children's contests but cannot boast the same level of experience.
Lewis, who is a full-time musician, won over "American Idol" viewers with his personality.
"American Idol" has become such a phenomenon that even singers eliminated before the end, such as recent Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson from the movie musical "Dreamgirls," have made major inroads in the entertainment world.

boyTi899 24th May '07 Thu, 11:20 Sparks fly! Jordin is new ‘American Idol’
17-year-old from Tucson, Ariz., beats Blake for season six title
LOS ANGELES - The big voice overwhelmed the beatbox Wednesday night as Jordin Sparks was crowned the newest and youngest “American Idol.”
Sparks, 17, of Glendale, Ariz., prevailed over Blake Lewis, 25, of Bothell, Wash., after a triumphant performance Tuesday that wowed the show’s judges and viewers who gave her a majority of the record 74 million votes cast.
“Mom, Dad, I love you,” Sparks, the daughter of retired NFL player Phillippi Sparks, said tearfully after a bear hug from Lewis.
The contest came down to either the stronger singer, Sparks, or the better entertainer, Lewis. Sparks delivered her songs simply and powerfully; Lewis’ flourishes included his sound-effects beatboxing and sharp dance moves.
The finale pulled out the stops and the stars, with Gwen Stefani, Smokey Robinson, Tony Bennett, Bette Midler, Green Day and more performing.
The two-hour show opened with Lewis and Sparks dueting on the Beatles “I Saw Her Standing There,” followed quickly by a touring Stefani singing “4 in the Morning” via satellite from Massachusetts.
Midler took the stage as the show came toward its close, singing “The Wind Beneath My Wings.”
Past “Idol” winners and this season’s contestants got a hefty share of attention, starting with first-season winner Kelly Clarkson. She performed her new single “Never Again,” with the gritty rock song matched by her black dress and thigh-high boots.
Carrie Underwood, the fourth-season idol, sang “I’ll Stand by You” and was honored by legendary music mogul Clive Davis for reaching 6 million in sales for her debut album, “Some Hearts.”
Taylor Hicks, last season’s winner, also had his moment in the finale sun, as did Ruben Studdard, the winner from year two.
Robinson, a Motown great, performed “Being with You” after the top six male contestants, including fan fave Sanjaya Malakar, sang “Ooh Baby Baby,” a hit for Robinson and his group the Miracles.
Blake, whose beat-boxing scored with viewers, performed with veteran rapper Doug E. Fresh on his old hit, “The Show.” It was a signature moment for a contest that has introduced young viewers to Gershwin and other standards.
“True originals,” host Ryan Seacrest said of the duo.
Gladys Knight took the stage with the six female finalists, belting out “I Feel a Song” and “Midnight Train to Georgia.” Bennett performed a mellow version of “For Once in My Life” that ended with a big finish.
“A true idol, Tony Bennett, ladies and gentlemen,” Seacrest gushed, with good reason.
Melinda Doolittle, arguably the best “Idol” contestant to miss out on the finale, returned to impress the crowd again as she sang “Hold Up the Line” with gospel stars BeBe and CeCe Winans.
“She has proven in the last few months to be spectacular,” BeBe Winans said backstage of Doolittle.
The show took a serious turn when Green Day performed “A Working Class Hero is Something to Be,” a single from “Instant Karma: The Campaign to Save Darfur,” a fundraising album for the embattled region.
The finale also had its share of filler, including bits such as the “Golden Idols,” an award saluting the oddest of odd auditions, or the worst. The winners included Margaret Fowler, who proudly accepted her trophy and recited poetry after smooching Seacrest.

Magpapapangit sa Pinoy Idol in my opinion ay yung mga judges at hosts. Syempre gagayahin nila yung mga tiga States. Naiimagine ko pa lang nasusuka na ko.
Anyways, back to AI. Agree ako magaling ang top 24 this season. I like Ramiele, David Hernandez, David Archuleta, Carly Smithson and Michael Johns. Hope they all make the cut towards the next round.
lotis 18th Feb '08 Mon, 23:48 gustong gusto ko yung mga comments ng judges na sins randy jackson, paula abdul and ung kay cowell palagi syang destructive critizism
krystler08 18th Feb '08 Mon, 23:52 Nakapasuk ba si ramielle malubay sa AI7?
I knew her personally when i was still in high school in florida. Nkatira sya sa Miami and i lived in Palm Beach, they are both in Tri-County, I used to see her in our YFC events. She was also an ex-gf of a friend of mine.
If there are any fans of her here, i can probably dig up her myspace somewhere from my myspace account.
YUP!! :excited: she's into the top 24! ang ganda ng boses nya ha!!!
krystler08 19th Feb '08 Tue, 20:07 David Archuleta is his name :)

Sinong David? Tatlo silang David dun eh. Hehe. Vocally mas gusto ko si David Hernandez. Pero nakakabilib din si Archuleta.
krystler08 26th Feb '08 Tue, 01:12 Sinong David? Tatlo silang David dun eh. Hehe. Vocally mas gusto ko si David Hernandez. Pero nakakabilib din si Archuleta.
:giggle: sensya.. archuleta nga... kse sobrang bata pa nya pero ang pure ng boses nya :D but syempre, favorite ko si ramiele :clap:
pinkchrome91 26th Feb '08 Tue, 18:21 sabi ng judges parang effortless daw yung boses ni David Archuleta... like he's born with that kind of voice :D
silver_surfer 26th Feb '08 Tue, 20:26 Ramiele is a good singer but do you think she is that good to win the contest? :think:
boyTi899 26th Feb '08 Tue, 22:49 Archuleta is the one to beat sa males sa tingin ko. Vocally his competition is David Hernandez. Pansin ko lang parang boring ng mga female contestants...A guy will win this season haha.
:giggle: sensya.. archuleta nga... kse sobrang bata pa nya pero ang pure ng boses nya :D but syempre, favorite ko si ramiele :clap:
Sumali na rin sya sa Star Search. Alam ko nanalo sya dun. Now he's trying his luck sa AI and I think he has a pretty good chance. I like the consistency in him. :D
sabi ng judges parang effortless daw yung boses ni David Archuleta... like he's born with that kind of voice :D
He's really born with that, I think. Sabi ko nga sumali na sya sa Star Search and he already has the experience in these kinds of competition.
Kaya lang, he has a problem with remembering the lyrics. Saka minsan parang bibigay na yung boses nya. Nagbibinata kasi hehe.
Have you tried watching his piano video of "A Thousand Miles" sa youtube? Galing nya dun.
Ramiele is a good singer but do you think she is that good to win the contest? :think:
I will place my money on her she will reach top 6. But top 3, I am not so sure. Pero tingin ko naman she's more likable than Jasmine Trias. So pwede pa siguro. Syempre I would want her to win kasi Pinoy Pride. :D
krystler08 26th Feb '08 Tue, 23:12 Ramiele is a good singer but do you think she is that good to win the contest? :think:
I'm crossing my fingers for her :pray:, she's such a sweetheart kse & she's not letting the whole AI experience get to her head. PLUS she's pinay & proud to be- which i really like :yes:

noname101 28th Feb '08 Thu, 10:32 bit spoilery for those who haven't seen tonight's ep, but Ramielle's perf is a bit of a let down compared to last week's....judges didn't like it and she sounded off key....
