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.

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 thought this was the worst Idol show yet. Why would they make them sing Stevie Wonder songs? Rather than give my opinion, I'll just say that I totally agree with Curtis (except for where he said "unfortunately" by Taylor's name- b/c I still love Tayler).

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 .

Chris, Paris, Taylor & Mandisa were the only ones who really impressed me last night, although Mandisa was a bit shaky at the start.

Elliot, Katherine, Lisa, Melissa & Bucky were all good, but nothing special IMO.

Kellie sucked, Ace was dull, and Kevin? I almost peed my pants - "Part Time Lover?" Are you kidding me? Bwwaaahhhaaaahhhhaaa! He should go.

At least nobody did "I Just Called..."

Go find Justin's version of For Once in My Life and also his audition of Blame It on the Sun (sung by...uh...someone last night) and RJ's version of Lately. They are all awesome! Also, Justin's Ribbon in the Sky is pretty dang great too.

Those two guys put everyone last night to shame....as usual.

I miss Gedeon and wonder what he would have done last night...and also Will.

I thought about Gedeon too! He would have done a great job with just about any Stevie Wonder song I think.

I thought this was the worst Idol show ever. I am so sick of Stevie Wonder. He's good, but he's not god and I'm not gooey over most of his songs anyway. Paris and Chris were the only ones I thought really did a good job. Mandisa was ok, but girl put the shoes back on. I kept thinking, surely she ain't gonna do this barefoot...and sure enough. I couldn't believe it. And Lisa was horrible, she croaked her way through and the judges ate it up...figures. The rest...I don't even have the strength to relive. This show better shape up fast.
