Exit Stage Left

Sanjaya was finally voted off after a disappointing performance on country night. I somehow knew that he could not do country and would be booted out. True enough his performance was poor compared to the beautiful latin night Besame Mucho.

I just saw his exit interview and I think he is a terrific kid. I understood what he was babbling about when he spoke of the night he stood with Lakisha and Blake on the stage being the bottom three. Judging from his expression that night, he probably knew that he was the one leaving. He was already sniffling before the result was announced. He also probably didn't want to be the one not leaving because there would be even more hype about him and the poor kid would have to bear all the hatred from Lakisha's and Blake's fans, not to mention the Sanjaya haters. I don't think he could take it much more and he shouldn't have to. I'm glad he's voted off because of this.

Sanjaya, you're awesome!

Sanjaya Malakar - Besame Mucho

Chris Richardson - Smooth

This is good too. I've always been a Chris Richardson fan too. I like him more than Blade

Chris Richardson - Don't Get Around Much Anymore

Okay this is good too

American Idol - Top 8

Oh damn! I just have to take a break from NaPoWriMo to write this post.

I think Haley should go, not Gina, not Sanjaya. Gina has been improving after moving a little away from the hot rock songs which makes her shout too much. Phil's performance was not that good but Haley was the worst of the lot. She's been kept in by her looks, not sure by whom and she's becoming another Barba. The spotlight was always on Sanjaya and Haley went through unnoticed. Frankly, I believe she has the weakest voice in this year's top 10.
