I thought Francisco was the “Queen for the day”.

[Wolfstar]

I’m still trying to find someone I like on Hell’s Kitchen this year, so far no luck

Same here, but then Ramsey really makes the show.

[EmilyGeiger]

LOL! I’ve never seen that picture of Rudy. How funny!

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

David A. singing “Footloose”? Hehe, cant see it. :)

This song just really meant a lot to me. When John Lithgow looked angry at Kevin Bacon, I knew that the song "Footloose" was more than just a song about dancing... it was a song about freedom.

I just can’t hear this song without picturing the guy from auditions a few seasons ago. “I shot the sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeriffffffffffffff..........”

I remember that :) He was cop too--LOL

I was trying to find info on the Sox story and found this. Poor Monchichi's NFL career is over.

Bears Release Archuleta

Castro singing two Bob Marley hits, and yet, they expect us to believe the kid doesnt enjoy some Ganja? LOL (yeah right)

And the GOOFY way he was acting. He didn't do much to squelch those reefer rumors :)

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

Bears Release Archuleta

Of course, he's probably made of tofu.

[skateman]

I can imagine that after the criticism of his first song, Castro went back and smoked a doobie that would choke Cheech and Chong.

[silent_jonny]

Castro just finished himself off............

I hope.

It would be embarrassing if he stayed and Syesha left tomorrow night.

[EmilyGeiger]

It was one of my favorite eighty tunes. I still get up and dance maniac crazy when the song comes on. LOL ;)Loved the movie too.

[Netizen]

“What’s happening in the White Sox dressing room with blow-up sex dolls?” Part of me is intrigued and the other part is disgusted at the part that is intrigued.

Well, I guess you should be glad they didn't mention blow up sex dolls AND steroids.....

[Palladin]

Tonight I agree with you. David Cook was excellent, as always. He is consistently good, which is very important for a modern pop star who must do many concerts in many venues.

Jason is a very charming kid, but he juts doesn’t have the vocal chops. He was awful tonight, and he committed the mortal sin of forgetting the lyrics.

Syesha was great—two completely different song styles, and she handled both of them well. She is one of the prettiest girls they’ve ever had in the top four.

I could have strangled the Monchichi for desecrating the memory of The King. His version of “Love Me Tender” was gay, raspy, sissified and atrocious. And very very pitchy. I swear Randy and Simon need hearing aids.

Top Three—Syesha and the two Davids.

Top Two—Syesha and David Cook.

AI—David Cook.

(((Twin)))

Anytime.

“I was thinking, ‘BOB MARLEY!’”
For the love of God, why does he speak? He’s so cute until he starts speaking.

ROFL!! That might have done more damage to him than the song.

He looked and acted HIGH.

[retrokitten]

LOL!

You’re not kidding. Elvis’ singing “Love Me Tender” is one of the most romantic yet manly songs ever, but also you could tell coming from experience. David A. was just neverending. Couldn’t wait for him to be finished, because there was no way he could grasp the song.

[retrokitten]

LMAO!! They would be gigantic!

[silent_jonny]

I get the impression you feel about the way I do with Monchichi — the judges just gag me with their praise

Same here.

[silent_jonny]

My problem with him isn't his voice so much as it's the fact that he sings every danged song as though he's a Disney kid trying to put some feeling he's never experienced into a song he doesn't understand. He looks and sounds exactly the same no matter what he sings.

Exactly right.
