I'm with you there. He snuck it on stage once. When it's gets later in the competition and he can sing one song he wants, he needs to pull it out. Damn the consequences.
I don't think he'd be allowed to play it, which is unfortunate.
This morning on Good Day L.A., Simon's girlfriend, Terri, who also covers the show for some entertainment news outlet, had this to say -- paraphrased:
She believes Kellie Pickler will win. She said that Kellie consistently gets among the highest vote totals. Terri did use the word "among," and did not say Pickle ALWAYS gets THE highest vote totals, but she clearly left viewers with the impression that Pickle is leading the competition.
When the Good Day L.A. regular hosts observed that Pickle did a terrible job the other night, and that she's not the strongest singer, Terri said that this year is all about personality, and that Pickle is a "firecracker."
Being Simon's long-time girlfriend, Terri is the ultimate insider. I can't remember when she's been wrong in her...ummm...predictions. I hope she's wrong this time. In fact, with six contestants still in the show, I hope Terri was doing a little misdirection. But somehow I doubt it. :(
