That is very sad but at least he didn't have any help in his death. It appears his family will have a great support group with your church. It's very hard to take when someone so young dies, particularly without any warning.

Paula was just in shock. She sat there with tears running down her face and then when Ryan tried to get her to talk about it she could barely speak.

Then while Constantine was singing, she was hugging his mom.

That was sweet I thought.

This was also the only performance of his that I liked.

Cool! My grandfather was born in Vilna (Vilnius) - it was Poland at the time, but it's also been Lithuania (I think), Russia and maybe even Sweden. I love the Poles!

Yes, a person who goes out to mow the lawn for the upteenth time in his life, doesn't expect to keel over and die in the middle of such activity. Makes us all realize that life is transitory, and when it's your time...man, the Grim Reaper's comin' for ya.

I am now convinced that there is something rotten in Denmark, or LA so to speak! No way did Scott get more votes than Constantine! This can't be a legit vote system!!! This is my first year watching this show, so I am slow to figure this out! LOL! I am not sure I believe this stuff now!!!!!

I didn't watch any of the first season of AI and almost none of the second season, so believe it or not, I've never seen Clay perform.

But I did listen to a clip of one of his songs online recently and he was great.

Anthony is a little darling and I hope he does really well.

OTOH, this is no longer a singing competition.

You got that right! It comes down to who has the most fans...and which candidate(s) will garner the votes of tricksters, disaffected young males who want to skew the results, bitter fans of Michaela, Anwar etc. who now want to vote for the least talented candidate.

If Constantine can go, then fans of Bo and Carrie should be quaking...they could go next.

I joke about it, but I don't seriously believe the show is rigged. If it was, then it would be open to all kinds of lawsuits. I don't think they would take that risk.

Wow -- I would have loved to have heard his finale.

He started out as a "rocker" but morphed into a David Cassidy with Kreskin eyes -- I was pretty happy when the first weeks went by and the "rockers" were still alive.

I still think Vonzelle and Scott were much worse performers (I am no longer using "slingblade" since it does seem sorta mean and that battery charge seems pretty flimsy).

Next week -- my prediction (I am zero for a gagillion) Vonzelle finally falls and Scott continues on his Chris-like ("The Apprentice") run for one more week.

I do think people have seen these people enough by now to be sick of them all.
I would not be surprised if 95% of the people had favorites picked before all is said and done.

I missed most of Season 1, but got to see the last few.

Do a search on Clay Aiken on Google, and you'll find all sorts of audio and video downloads. I don't have the links here, but remind me and I'll try to track some down if you'd like. I took my son to see Clay's Christmas concert, and we were both blown away.

(buffing nails) He was one I noticed in the audition shows right away, just because of his voice and positive attitude. :-)

It's the kids who are voting for the worst or seeking revenge because their favorite was voted off.

The vote for the worst website has actively been trying to keep Scott on.

Constantine was wearing pretty thin even for some that previously liked him.

Thank you for being kind about Scott. Hopefully all of his rough past is behind him.

I liked seeing him with his son last night. That sort of thing is nice to see.

That said, he truly was the worst performer last night. It was pretty bad. Hopefully he'll be able to get some sort of singing career, even if it's just a singing job on a cruise ship or something like that.

It would allow him to support his son well.

I think Vonzelle is getting by with that sweet personality of hers. She's good, but she has that cute factor going for her.

It was very nice of Paula to console Constantine's mother. Constantine comes from a very nice and classy family. He will do well in life, regardless of how he made out on AI.

I'll do that. I was impressed with the clips I heard.

His last album did really well I hear.

You have a point there. In "Nashville Star", they don't drag it out like this. They stop with the top four and have a final vote.

(At least that's what they did last year, when I still had cable. I didn't watch this year's Nashville Star. Someone reported on this thread that a female won the competition which finished this week.)

It was very sweet of her to do that. She got her to stop crying didn't she?

Actually they both stopped crying. I agree, his family seems really nice and very close.
