I saw Simon on Jay Leno last night, and I wasnt surprised to see him pick Kellie for the girls and Chris for the guys to make it to the end.

The stylist(s) should be shot repeatedly with a high-powered firearm. And then shot again.

Everyone so far has sounded pretty bad.

Oh yeah - I love Elliot.

I agree except I think Elliott is a good singer, he just didn't do so well with the Stevie Wonder. Stevie Wonder songs MUST be hard to sing because hardly any of the contestants pulled them off. I was pleasantly surprised by Chris's choice .

Oh, and I also really liked Taylor's performance, I think he's great.

Katherine is gorgeous!

I still love Mandisa. She started her song off a little shaky, but by the end she nailed it.

I don't really have anything against Pickler (except for her dumb, southern blonde bullsh*t) but I hope she doesn't win. We already have a Carrie Underwood.

I would LOVE to have been privy to Stevie Wonder's inner monologue when he was working with Kevin in that practice segment .

A few of them butchered Stevie's songs ... ugh! I could barely listen to the first half of the show. Standouts for me were Chris, Katherine, Melissa (I think that's her name), and Paris. Taylor wasn't too shabby, either. I like his spirit. I'd love to see what he looks like if they dye his hair. My boy Ace did not impress me tonight at all!! Kinda bummed about that.

No, they'd better not touch it, he is HOT w/ the grey.

He did great tonight, too....as did Chris, Mandisa and Catherine. IMO everybody else can go bye-bye.

I totally agree. It's bad enough that this was their first performance on "the big stage". Kellie, Melissa and Katherine looked so uncomfortable in their dresses and the comments about Bucky's hair and the possibility of dyeing Taylor's hair are inappropriate. It's funny how the judges are always talking about making the songs their own yet they are forced to appear on stage in a look determined by a "stylist". What happened to just being yourself. Can you imagine what the judges would have said to someone like Stevie had she shown up as Rhiannon?
