So, the show starts and Cheeseball Ryan comes out wearing a wig that looks like Sanjaya's hair from last night. Its funny how American Idol seemed to want Sanjaya gone as much as we all did, but have resigned themselves to him staying and are now embracing the idea. Interesting.
Cowboy commercial. Chris R proves again that he is a sexy beast, but I liked CAKE in bubbles so much more.
Cue ominous music....Blake is safe! LaKisha is safe! Phil is *fingers crossed* in the bottom 3, grrrr. Melinda is safe! Chris R is safe! Sanjaya....yeah is safe. Haley joins Phil on the Seal. Jordin is safe!
Chris S and Gina now have to be toyed with for a little while longer. Isn't this the second time its happened to both of them?
Gwen with Akon sing "The Sweet Escape" YAY I love this song and I think this was the best and most enjoyable performance by a guest ever.
Back to Chris S and Gina; Chris S joins Phil and Haley on the Seal. Phil once again is sent back right away (again, didn't this happen before?) and its just Haley with her vulnerability and shiny, magical hair and Chris S looking like he already knows. And he is right, he will be leaving us.
I am so glad they aired his singout because I do love his voice, but something happened the last couple weeks - he imploded somehow. Awww his hot wife is sad for him, and he hugs all his fellow contestants. All their eyes looked dry though, wonder why? Its going to be heartwrenching when CAKE are separated at some point.

Completely! And it has been downloaded. Gwen you earned your $.99 from me! Good work! (Although what was the point of Akon being there? Was he there just to sing the woo-hoos and yee-hoos?)
You could tell by the look on Phil's face when he stood up that he didn't expect to be in the bottom 3. But I'm glad he was saved and frankly I was glad Haley and her shiney hair were saved over Chris S this week. As Spork said, I liked his voice at first too but rather than getting better he seemed to get worse each week.
I wasn't shedding tears when Sligh went home either. DI got the bottom two right, but Phil was not in their "danger" zone, so his bottom 3 is a bit of a surprise. Sligh never listened. When even PAULA is telling you you're off the beat, then it's really THAT bad. And I have heard that from Paula since Sligh first sang in the top 24 and that also proved to be his last criticism from Paula.
I just don't know if Sligh could take being outlasted by Sanjaya, being the snarky person he seemed to be. Then again, he has outlasted Sundance, Brandon, Stephanie too who are eons better singers than him. I'll wait for the day where he will outlast Lakisha, Jordin, Chris R., etc. Whoopee. *rolleyes*
When Ryan asked Simon who is going home, did Simon say "Bye-Bye Curly" or "Bye-bye Haley"? I didn't quite catch it. I know the camera focused on Sligh, but then Haley also is "curly," so I got a little confused. Heh!

Funny about Gwen. I don't care for that song much on the radio, but I immensely enjoyed her performance. Look for her album to get a sales bump next week!

He said 'curly' but really, that could have been either of them.
When even PAULA is telling you you're off the beat, then it's really THAT bad.
Paula is a dancer and choreographer so I assume she knows about being on the beat. It's when she critiques vocal quality where I'm like...ummm no. But I totally agree that he has consistently been knocked for this since the semifinals and yet he never FIXED it.
Chris is back to blogging now that he is off the show.

I wasn't sorry to see Chris go, but much like with Brandon, I was sorry to not get to see him live up to his full potential. Oh well, he does have that hot wife to go home too.
Did you take a look at the People article about the Top Ten? Blake says he's sad because he doesn't have a woman. I bet I know someone who'd be happy to do something about that. ;)

But he has Cake!

*blushes* Kidding, sort of.
Seriously though, My Blake is playing this thing very, very well but manages to do it without seeming calculated. coughCHRISSLIGHcough
You mean Chris Sligh, Mr. I didn't actually WANT to win. I just wanted to go on tour.

Well thank you Mr. Sligh for taking the spot of someone who I may have actually wanted to see on tour. I appreciate that.
Whether its the real truth or not, I don't like it when contestants say they didn't really want to win. Then why leave your job, friends and family (hot wife!) and go on the show and ask people to vote for you?
Some things are best kept to your internal monologue, Chris.
From the EW article:
I'm trying to think of how to put this in a way that's nice... It's a sect of Christianity that puts their heads in the sand and doesn't want to engage the world around them. I've talked about it on the show, that I was not able to listen to pop music growing up. To them, it's literally a sin for me to sing pop or rock music.
I guess Footloose really does exist?

I actually know several churches where dancing (of any sort) is not allowed. So yes, Footloose really does exist.

Not only that, but also taking the spot of people who actually, genuinely want to win this competition.
I was reading the most recent People Mag with the Idols on the cover and in addition to Blake admitting he is womanless at the moment he says that meeting women is scary for him because he has no game and that he considers women to be the most beautiful creatures on earth.
Go get him Spork!
And who knew that I knew what I was talking about when I made fun of Blake's pants for being "Grandpa Pants". That's actually what they're CALLED and even better (or worse) Blake makes them himself.
