Jessica Meuse
Her song is Sam's pick: Miranda Lambert's "Gunpowder & Lead". Again, EXCELLENT. Perfect fit for her.
Also again, we have to wait for a commercial break before we get to the judges' comments.
Jlo: I've been such a fan of yours. This is the first time I've heard you off. You seemed a little bit uncomfortable. Didn't seem natural.
Harry: I agree. It wasn't your best performance. A lack of rhythmic delivery. When the rhythm is in your body ... it will match the pyrotechnics. You were walking out of time with the music. We call it play like you live in New Orleans.
Keith: A dissipation of energy on a song about revenge. Miranda kills it because it sounds like she's really pissed off. But you were dissipated. If you want to stay in this competition, get serious.
The commercial delay is unfair.
I bet if they took the judges' comments right after her performance, with the crowd cheering, they would have been more positive.
And now Demi Luvato walks out on stage to kill time with Seacrest. Now she goes over to sit next to Randy Jackson and the Idols. This feels like an audition for the ex-X-Factor judge.
