2012 is the last season I'll watch this crap.
I am proud to say that I have never watched a single episode of American Idol. Snotty judges and multiple votes by viewers turned me off.
“Racism” - still an active trump card when things don’t go your way.
I didn’t watch Idol this year, but from what I overheard when my wife watched - the “talent” this year was generally thinner. Between these two finalists, the young lady was probably more talented (and pretty as well). But we also have to remember - American Idol is determined by “votes” cast by SMS message and phone calls - by teenagers and a lot of Obama voters. So the winner is not necessarily a reflection of the most qualified or “best”... after all, the same kind of “voters” gave us BHO...
I never watched AI until I glimpsed the Phillips kid.
He deserved it.
The dude is channeling Joe Cocker and Jack the Ripper, simultaneously.
[I’d hit it]
Other news publications also pointed out that Phillips is the fifth consecutive white person to win in a row.
NEWS FLASH......Perhaps this reflects the mood of the country.
Girls aren’t going to vote for another great girl singer when a good-looking, charming male is in the mix. Sexual attraction stole the show! These girls will be future Obama voters!
Seriously, I didn’t even AI was still on nor were the finals on last night until you posted it. I’m tired of this white liberals and their white liberal guilt, and these are the same ass clowns who don’t even have a single non-white friends in their circle.
So Randy Jackson and Jennifer Lopez were being racist when they gave him a standing ovation and called him Brilliant for his last song before the voting began? Just asking.
I was a huge Aerosmith fan back in the day, but now this flaming fool creeps me out
They should do like the people in charge of undergraduate admissions at UC Berkeley—have a rule that no more than 1/3 of the winners can be non-Hispanic whites.
Well, I’m offended by the racial mix of the contestants on The Price is Right.
I can’t help but notice that black and hispanic contestants are picked in much higher percentages than their numbers in the audience.
Asians and whites are underrepresented.
Where do I complain?
Other news publications also pointed out that Phillips is the fifth consecutive white person to win in a row.But they were all Cherokee Indians (mythically speaking).
Did these folks have a problem with the Dancing with the Stars results? Just wonderin’
So sick of these race hustlers in the media.

I know enough about AI to not feel sorry for those who didn’t win. Winning AI doesn’t mean you are the only one who will profit from being on the show. Each of the top 3 will do just fine (maybe even others who didn’t make the top 3), if they make wise choices. Throwing race into the mix is just plain ignorant.
African American are 12% of the population but 33% of the American Idol winners.
Pro sports are racist! Most athletes are people of color and white folk are in the minority. As for Idol, maybe they should just have this as first question on the application: Are you White? If the answer is yes, you’re automatically disqualified. That will make the racist whiners happy.
I never watch American Idol but this year hearing Jessica Sanchez sing Whitney Houston’s “I will always love you” gave me the chills. She is pure talent. I knew she had to win.
Then I watched the show once and saw the others. Many of them had stepped it up and they were also very good. Jessica was supreme in my mind. But she could not move out of her comfort zone and I thought that might be a problem.
As second runner up she will be out there and making some money I think. One other thing she was the ‘ONE’ save and if she had won I think that would have caused some problems.
