The Teariest ‘American Idol’ Semifinal Show Ever

Jean Bentley — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 02:09:14 +0000

We know every week on a competition reality show is usually advertised as the “most fill-in-the-blank superlative episode ever!!!”, but tonight’s elimination on American Idol truly was one of the most shocking (and tearful) we’ve witnessed yet. Sent packing in the last semifinal round were Lilly Scott, Katelyn Epperly, Todrick Hall, and Alex Lambert. Yes, you read that right.

True, Lilly gave one of her weakest performances of the season on Tuesday, but we didn’t even consider the fact that America would vote her out. Katelyn, on the other hand, we suspected might go. But that doesn’t mean we have to agree with it. As for the men, Todrick probably sealed his fate by delivering the recently Glee-ified “Somebody to Love” with an almost cartoon-like exuberance, but how Aaron Kelly managed to make it but Alex didn’t will continue to remain one of the greatest mysteries of life.

So, America, that means your top 12 American Idol season 9 finalists are, in no particular order, Didi Benami, Crystal Bowersox, Lacey Brown, Siobhan Magnus, Paige Miles, Katie Stevens, Lee Dewyze, Andrew Garcia, Casey James, Aaron Kelly, and Tim Urban. Who are you rooting for? (For the record, Crushable is on Team Siobhan, until her eventual elimination because that’s how it always goes for the people we root for, on which occasion we will be switching to team Bowersox.)

American Idol 8 Top 9 Results Show

The American Idol contestants showed us a bit about their lives and things have changed since they’ve been on the show. They spend a lot of time doing interviews, photo shoots and walking the red carpet (wow, I feel so sorry for them – ha ha!). They also revealed that they have a private chef (Scott requested a triple chocolate cake!).

Reigning Idol winner, David Cook, sang his song “Come Back to Me” and I was really happy to see him considering he had to cancel some shows due to some family issues. He was presented with a platinum record for his debut album (over a million copies sold).

Lady Gaga also took the stage and sang a very interesting version of her mega-hit, “Poker Face.” I am so sorry but I cannot stand her. I know she’s popular but she just seems to try too hard to be unique for me.

The bottom three consisted of Megan Joy, Allison Iraheta and Anoop Desai. When she was being put into the bottom, Ryan asked about how Megan felt about Simon’s harsh words following her performance last night. She said that she didn’t care about what Simon had to say (yikes!).

When it was announced that Megan had the fewest number of votes, Ryan asked whether the judges would consider saving her. Simon brought up what she had said about him and then said that the judges were now the ones do “don’t care” and that they would not be considering using the “save” on her. ROUGH!
