American Idol Top 7

Judges could not save anymore. And since they saved Matt Giraud last week, Wednesday night was double elimination on American idol. Two out of the seven remaining finalists had to leave the ¨Idol¨ stage Wednesday night after viewers cast fewer votes for their Disco week performances. So now, it is top 5 on American Idol season 8.

The first one to be eliminated was Lil Rounds, who has been in the bottom rungs several times. But, American Idol host Ryan treated her with sympathy, probably because she had raised everybody´s expectations in the beginning of American Idol season 8, and had willingly accepted judges´ criticism. “We need someone like you in this competition,” he said of her drive, then called her “one of the most courageous contestants,” said Ryan to Rounds.

Simon Cowell had correctly predicted that Lil Rounds ”I’m Every Woman,¨ performance on American Idol April 21 would be the end of her career on the show. Other judges were quite harsh with Rounds. The singer said, addressing her husband and three children, ”I’m coming home.”

Anoop Desai, who performed “Dim All the Lights” on Tuesday night American Idol show, was sent home along with Lil Rounds. Dissatisfaction showed clearly on the judges´ faces, and in their words. Cowell told him, “It was a horrible version of that song,” and added “that was your worst performance by a mile.” However, some of the other judges disagreed with his statement. Desai said ”I’m still really disappointed.¨

Apart from Anoop Desai and Lil Rounds, Allison Iraheta finished in the bottom three. It is disappointing that Iraheta, instead of Matt Giraud, ended up with such low scores. She is a powerful singer, and her Tuesday night´s performance was a much more confident one than Giraud´s. Iraheta is now the only female singer to remain on American idol. The other finalists to make it to American idol season 8 top 5 are Adam Lambert, Danny Gokey, and Kris Allen.
