"In plain view, I (perhaps presumptuously on behalf of us folk who are here to have fun) extended my hand. It has been slapped away by a child who wants to sit in his corner and pout."

Still being patronizing I see. Here's what happened you started by asking me if I was going to be good. That's none of your business. I never said anything bad to you up to that point tonight. Instead of just replying you had to talk down. Now you're having a pity party. Wammmmmmmmmm! I tried to save him and he wouldn't repent.

I apologized to a guy who posts his religious beliefs on his tags, but he is not Christian enough to respond and accept what was offered in good spirit. Instead you decided the apology was not suffient even though it was none of your busines. You're an arrogant busybody.

Your further attempts to excoriate me and not correct your self-agrandizing behavior is pathetic. Get over yourself. You not running anything and no one needs to be corrected by you.

PS the best way to shun someone and post false information about them would be to do it via freepmail as the original shunning was done and not keep repeating comments about them on the main thread.

My gut tells me that he won’t be in the bottom 3. He’ll probably make the top 5.

Honestly, I really don’t care about his proclivities. I didn’t like his rendition of Ring of Fire, because it was so over-the-top “LOOK AT ME!!! AREN’T I DIFFERENT AND EDGY??” that it annoyed me.

But it seems like there are enough people who think it was brilliant that he’ll easily move on.

The votes will tell the tale.

Notwithstanding that the guy is gay, he's young and you expect something edgy from younger people.

In past years, the judges have said "Make it your own." And get "outside the box."

I didn't like it, but I'm old and remember Cash as one of my favorites. Younger people may vote for him.

Show “insider” claims the show is fixed!!!!

Funny how this person picks the 4 people that someone who watches the show would assume to be top contenders anyway.

Exactly. It's like... Hey, I made the same call... does that make me an insider too? LOL.

Like he’d ask, “Do these skinny jeans make me look fat?” “Did you take my flat iron?” and call his hairspray, “Product.”

Alexis is the bottom on Dial Idol. If it turns out that she is the bottom vote getter it would blow the whole conspiracy theory out of the water.

Regarding yur post about the final 4. Found this:

Tuesday, March 17th 2009, 7:13 AM

Aside from Paula Abdul, the producers of “American Idol” have one more loudmouth to deal with on the set.

One of the hit show’s staffers is running around telling anyone who’ll listen that the team of producers and judges has already picked the final four contestants — despite the fact that 11 kids are still battling to be the latest pop star.

The female “AI” worker told a “group of people that the last four are going to be Danny Gokey, Lil Rounds, Adam Lambert and Alexis Grace,” said our insider. Asked if this was opinion or actual fact, the staffer vehemently retorted, “Those ARE the people,” saying it wasn’t mere speculation.

If it was just her prediction, she’d be spot-on with this week’s TV Guide, which also chose those exact four wanna-be crooners as its picks for stardom.

But the lass took it a step further, claiming that higher-ups at the hit Fox show were taking an issue with two of the top contenders.

“Adam Lambert and Lil Rounds are better singers and musicians than Gokey and Grace, but they’re too much like past winners and ‘A’ successes,” the woman said. “Adam’s too close in style and sound to Chris Daughtry, while Lil Rounds is a dead ringer for Fantasia. Even their background stories are similar!

“The producers really want it to be Danny or Alexis. They think they’re very commercially viable, have a good image and a great story.”

Gokey’s sorrowful story of the death of his wife, Sophia, during heart surgery a month before his audition is “a huge reason viewers are tuning in,” said the staffer. “Fox likes the attention that he’s getting, and they’ve taken to giving Danny much more airtime as a result.”

While Fox’s reps had no comment on the allegations, another TV insider told us, “It’d
be very hard to manipulate the entire final four. Sure, the judges get one vote to save someone, but that’s before the top five, so theoretically, it’s just delaying the inevitable.

“There’d have to be so many people lying for them to pull something like this off — so I doubt it’s true.”


Alexis was the lowest vote getter according to Dial Idol. If true, will the judges save her? If the final 4 is pre ordained will they sacrifice her to prove that the final 4 is not pre ordained? lol

Either way, tonight is going to be interesting. I’d hate to see her leave when there are others more deserving of leaving. She was good and would have been a great addition to the tour.

Scott is in the bottom three as well and he could be a bit more challenging for them to deal with on the tour.
