She is better than Mylie Cyrus, in my estimation

That isn't much of a comparison

[freedumb2003]

>>I’d watch that! And why not a competition for 29 year olds and up?<<

That’s the diver behind “The X Factor.”

[MagUSNRET]

They are asking a chikld (and yes Mylie is still a child) to give singing advice...the whole idea of it, is laughable!

[big'ol_freeper]

Glad I am not watching live!! will fast forward through the bad performances tomorrow before Wednesdays show.

Katie looks like Valerie Bertinelli to me...

[CASchack]

Well, she's nicer than Miley, but Miley does what she does quire well.

Was that Miley's mom trying to get face time on camera? Sad.

Katie Stevens

"Great to get feedback from someone my age."

Sings Fergie's "Big Girls Don't Cry". Unexpectedly nice. Her voice sounds similar to Fergie's ... but not quite. A couple of flat notes here and there, but it's okay.

Don't like her peace sign t-shirt.

Randy: I don't know if it was your best performance. Little sharp. You picked a younger song and you looked younger. You're listening.

Ellen: I think it WAS your best performance. I think you're the Dakota Fanning of American Idol.

Kara: This is the lane for you--pop with R&B leanings. You felt the song. You've still got mad pitch issues, but this is where you belong.

Simon: I think you meeting Miley Cyrus was probably the best thing for you. (likes the way she looks compared to the pageant contestant of past weeks) I think you're competing right now in a very difficult place, but having said that it was a very good performance.

Hi, Timeout :)

Hi, Shelayne :)

[LA Woman3]

I’d watch that! And why not a competition for 29 year olds and up?

If you can stay on your parent's insurance until 26, why not be able to compete after 29?

I enjoyed the season (show) when Andrea Bocelli was giving advice...he could not see ANY of them, and went on their voice and vocal skills alone, when advising them on what and how to sing...we need more of that and less Mylie “Im a teen idol and I know chit” advice.

[silent_jonny]

Hey, EG! :)

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

katie was OK.

I still say Andrew, Tim, and Paige are the bottom 3.

[VampireStateNY]

Nice - hopefully it won’t be swamped with teens like the UK version, then.

[silent_jonny]

OMG THIS GUY SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL!

[LA Woman3]

Actually, a while back I heard that Paula Abdul was going to start her own label for former Idol contestants who needed a label or had been dropped. Never heard what happened with that idea.

I love the idea. There has been a lot of talented people passed over. This season proves it.

[silent_jonny]

I was eating dinner during Paige, and both the Hubster and I darn-near choked.

LOLOL!

[MagUSNRET]

When I look at the people that get voted off.......I comfort myself a bit by the realization that the people that voted to keep some of the riff raff, are also the people that voted for Obama ....nothing more need be said.... LOL

[Timeout]

Hi, jonny!

It’s going to be a long next 5 weeks.

I wish we could go straight from top 11 to top 3.

[Fawn]

Wasn’t there an earlier contestant a year or so ago, who had blond wavy hair that Paula really liked? Looks like Casey..
