The competition really gets under way as Top 13 sing Stevie Wonder (boys) and Whitney Houston (girls). Tomorrow the bottom boy and girl will be announced and the judges will send one home (this is a new idea to the competition and apparently a one night only).
Travmo's Scoring: 4-Winner! 3-Good! 2-Just Okay... 1-Disaster!
Joshua: 3+
He took it to church and I think he did a great job. He reminds me of Fantasia so much. GREAT!
Elise: 2-
Elise is already not one of my favorites. This was probably the best she's looked but honestly she was, as usual, shouting her song. Her first choice was awful, but this was pretty bad too.
Jermaine: 3-
Am I the only one who finds this guy really annoying? Why do people like him so much? I will say though that he sounded really good tonight, but the song was kind of boring. But I think it was mainly boring because he sang it so boringly.
Erika: 3+
This Wild Card was not my first choice, but I have to say she sure impressed tonight. She doesn't have the most range but she has strong voice and I loved that she did a glamorous ballad. She also looked so much better this week than last. I don't think she can win the show, but I think she has potential to be around for a bit.
Colton: 3
Colton is one of my favorites in the competition. However, I'm not sure this was the perfect song choice for him. With that said, I think he did as good as he could and I think he will slide into the Top 12 with no issues.
Shannon: 1
Is "I Have Nothing" in Shannon's CRAWL? Ugh. This is my least favorite contestant. I still can't understand how she made with her pageant performance last week. With that said, dressing her like a rocker teen for a ballad was stupid. She could have easily worn a cute, young, dress...but not a leather jacket and tights. I personally thought this was pretty terrible. It made me miss Whitney so much. PLEASE GO HOME! At least the judges agreed with me for once.
Deondre: 2
This Wild Card Diva is quite annoying. I feel like no matter what he does, he's not actually in it. He can belt out, shake his hair, have good sets and outfits, but he's not really "present". Maybe he's too young. I really loved what American Idol did for this performance. Too bad someone I liked wasn't performing. The one positive is that his hair was up, because his hair annoys me.
Skylar - 4
We have ourselves a contender! She did great last week and this week she looked absolutely gorgeous and I loved her rendition of "Where Do Broken Hearts Go?" By far the best of the night so far! I expect her to be in my top 4 tonight.
Heejun - 4
First of all, what is Heejun wearing? I don't like his suit. but...OMG THAT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL!!! I got "goosies", J.Lo! It was just such an awesome performance. And I agree with Randy...it wasn't perfect, but it was realllly good!
Hollie - 4
Where is this girl from? She definitely has a Australian accent or something. I love her voice so much. The competition has apparently started now with Skylar, Heejun, and Hollie! She reminds me of Christina Aguilera, but there is a little "big moment Kelly Clarkson" in her Idol performances. Yay for Hollie! But seriously, stop with the NUDE heels. I can't stand that look!
Jeremy - 3+
The final Wild Card was my choice and I think America should have chosen him last week. Let's see if America gets it right this week...I think Jeremy did a great job, but I'm not sure I'm undersanding the styling they put him. It seemed very "2nd grade Teacher" and I don't even dress like as a 2nd grade teacher! I'm not going to lie...I'm a little nervous for him. It wasn't fantastic...but at least it was good. Again, I agreed with Randy that it didn't have swag. That could hurt him.
Jessica - 4
Only one girl in this competition could sing "I Will Always Love You", and that's Jessica! She really sounded like Jennifer Hudson tonight. The only thing I didn't like was how much of the song had to be cut, making it sound a little rushed and weird. But Jessica "nailed" it! Oh, and she looked gorgeous too!
Can I take a moment to give a shout out to JC Pennys and Ellen Degeneres. These commercials are just awesome and hilarious! Who would have thought JCP would be cool in 2012?
Phillip - 3+
After a bunch of ballads, it was kind of nice to have a rock performance at this point. Phillip is just so awesome. I'm really happy with America for picking the best of the bunch last week and I'm also happy with American Idol for not cutting the crappy singers out early rather than in the past seasons where we went week after week widdling down. That used to be my favorite part of the competition but after a few seasons it got a little old. Now at least we are working with the best (minus Shannon).
TOP 2 BOYS: Heejun and Phillip
TOP 2 GIRLS: Jessica and Hollie
BOTTOM 2 BOYS: Deandre and Jermaine
BOTTOM 2 GIRLS: Shannon and Elise
Who should go home? duh...Shannon! The problem is, if Shannon gets votes someone good may go home early. SCARY!
