Siobhan Magnus

Usher tries to coach her on what to wear, doesn't want her look to be distracting to the performance.

Her song is Chaka Khan's "Through The Fire". She's dressed more conservatively (for her).

But no matter what she's wearing, nothing can distract from her painfully sour notes. And yes, she screams. Again.

Kind of a mess.

Randy: Big song. I don't know if you caught on quite pitch-wise. Don't know if it was one of your shining moments. Like the outfit, dog. Wasn't your best performance at all. Kinda rough.

Ellen: Went off a bit. Starting the evening off with you is like desert before the meal.

Kara: Should have worked for you. You have delivered every week. You are entitled to one off night. You're a great singer.

Simon: It sounded to me like you were running a marathon, and you were singing while you were out of breath. You're kidding yourself if you think that was a good performance. I'm getting bored with the scream.

Seacrest: She didn't "kill" the song, did she?

Simon: I'm going to call it manslaughter.

8:17 and only one performance so far!

I'm sticking around just to see who gets the 10,000th post.

Look back stage? Oh, how embarrassing for Siobhan. Let’s document her pain some more.

Andrew Garcia

Usher: I can tell he was nervous as all out. [urges him to sing it like he means it]

His song is Chris Brown's "Forever". What a crappy tune. "Double your pleasure, double your fun." I have a sudden desire for chewing gum. Andrew sings it well though.

Randy: America, Andrew is back! Your best performance in a looooong time.

Ellen: That was a really amazing strong performance. Love when you smile.

Kara: That was one giant leap in the right direction. I'll leave it at that.

Simon: Miles, miles better from what we heard from you before. My only criticism, it was a little boring. I'm trying to be constructive. Start showing some personality.

Seacrest has Andrew's mother walk over to the judges' table and berate Simon for calling her son boring. Lots of Spanish lingo.

Alright, just hold on a minute here! Everything about Siobhan's performance suxed! What was with the balloon pants??? And again she didn't take my Simon's advice and still used the boringass, tired scream, AGAIN! Oh my, it was like she forgot how to sing! I know people have bad performances, but that was ridiculous for her. I would say you could not have PLANNED that performance to be worse!

Siobhan, stop singing in your low register, pick higher keys! Bottom three for sure, she might be packing this week...dumbass, stubborn, radical kid!
