I didn't watch last season so I don't know who she is really other than she was on AI. But I didn't think it was that great.

I'm guessing that the reason none of the current were shown for next week is to make us believe everyone didn't know whom would be voted off already?

I think it would be kinda unfair for them to reveal any of the judges' choices because there still is another group of 12 to perform.

Tuesday - Last group of 12 performs
Wednesday - 3 go through to Top 12
Thursday - Judges Wild Card round

I know they made it seem that way. But they are putting people through for the Top 12. We've had 2 groups of 3 make it so far. That leaves one more regular group of 3 plus the wild card group of 3.

Plus, I double-checked the programming schedule for next week. 🙂
 
I can't say that I disagree too much with the top 3 from this week. Allison (right? red headed 16-year old) did a damn fine job with "Alone" and she brings the youth factor too. The guy who sang "Man In the Mirror" did a decent job and he's good looking. Obviously Adam is the most vocally talented but I still think he can shave a good bit of his theatrics from his performances. I'm waiting for the first time that he sings a ballad or something minimalist - showing that other side will garner him a lot of fans.

For the wild card week, they'll bring back the cute blonde with the tattoos, at the very least.
 
Lol, guess that shows how bad some of these singers have been when I can't remember how many have already been selected.

I just hope in wild card week, they leave Jackie Tohn behind. I can't stand her...lol
 
I think they got last night right. I'd like to see blonde girl with tattoo arm back, that dude who sang coldplay should get a shot, and Norman Gentle should definitely be back. That dude had me cracking up, and he was so lost and uncomfortable during the group performance. He's one of the few guys I'd pay to see every week simply b/c he's entertaining. Most of this stuff we've heard a million times before.
I also am not impressed with many of the girls, except Allison. She's probably my favorite singer so far this year. I think Mishavonna deserves another shot as well. From week 1 that Braddy guy was also really good but got zero pre-show face time. It was cool to see Kris make it b/c he also got zero face time until this show. Nobody even knew who he was.
I'm voting Norman Gentle if he gets another shot.

Also, it's crazy how they set this up for certain people to win. Dany and Adam go so much press, and also get picked last to sing for the night.
 
I think elvis-boy really really sucks. He sounds pinched and shrill imo singing the stones, and has no lower range even tho they say he does. I think he's a solid entertainer, but a headache to listen to.

And I really hope they kick the tag-along 4th girl out of the judges seat, the only person that likes to hear her talk is herself.

On a positive note, I love the 16 year-old redhead, but unfortunately didn't get a chance to see all of the others.
