“Tonight’s results might surprise quite a few people and reminds people that its important that the singers do well each week and that someone can be riding high at the top of the pack and the next week be gone.”
Sounds to me like they’re hinting about David C. getting the heave-ho. (Which would annoy me quite a bit!) I think he’s the best all-round contestant this year, but that last song he did was just wretched, and that stupid jacket made him look like a refugee from Sergeant Pepper’s band. I threw some votes his way but I’ll bet you a buck he’s at least in the bottom 3 this week, if not actually gone.
Anyway, it might not be the worst thing if he is booted sooner than later. He will have a career regardless, and can get started right away and with fewer Idol strings attached. Would certainly miss the originality of his performances, though.
One of the things that makes me wonder about the possibility of it being DC is whether or not his outside Idol stuff might actually have him wanting to go home? If his brother really has had a setback healthwise, perhaps he’s reprioritized and wouldn’t be crushed to go at this point? I’m not really convinced of it...but...perhaps a possibility. I think he knows he’s ok without Idol, and that the producers love him and will likely offer him a contract no matter where he finishes.
