Top 5 & 6 Results - The LOVE that dares not speak its name....

Well, tonight we lose two people. Even though I have my own Bottom two, there really isn't anyone left that I am anxious to see leave. Its very different from the past two years Top 6 where I was anxious for certain contestants to leave. And they did. Whoever the two are tonight, I will miss them for different reasons.

The usual filler, even though Ryan snarked that there wouldn't be any. Usual fake banter between the judges and Ryan, man on the street stuff....bleh. Then even MORE filler after the break showing the filler from last week! And yes, Celine Dion and Elvis are still creepy.

Ryan then interviews the contestants; Blake brought his own studio, Jordin's "bad night" was last night, Phil wasn't allowed to listen to pop music growing up, just like Sligh and LaKisha makes Simon blush!

Next up is Robin Thicke and WHOA! He really is Alan Thicke's son! I had only heard the song before and never saw the artist, so I always thought this was an Urban Legend. Guess not, and now I wish I was still oblivious.

Commercial - "Paint It Black" with circus freaks. LOVE IT!

Results: Melinda, Phil and LaKisha are called down to the Seal. Melinda is SAFE! LaKisha is SAFE! Phil will be leaving us. I grew to really like him over the past few weeks and I am so glad he is going out on a high note. Of course, his Goodbye montage was made more touching with the new baby and using Carrie's ISBY. After the commercial, Jordin is SAFE and omg CAKE are in the Bottom 2, but we have to wait until after Bon Jovi to find out who is leaving!

Bon Jovi - I haven't given them much thought since the late 80's (sorry usocrazy) but I really loved their performance tonight. Damn, Jon Bon Jovi looks GOOD for his age. Exactly the same as 20 years ago, minus the ridiculous 80's hair and I kind of love them again.

Back with CAKE on the Seal! They are so cute, doing the Cake Shake, hugging up on each other, exchanging meaningful looks, Chris declaring that he would go home for Blake! ("blah blah blah. Just make out already!" says Rulz). After much suspense, its Chris that will be going home. His montage was sweet, although it was a little distracting with him in the lower corner doing a "I have to go pee" dance, but then he stops and looks a little sad. Aw.

Chris thanks everyone for getting him this far and starts his singout. He looks over at Blake, who is in the throes of ugly crying. Blake tearfully mouths "I...love....you...." to his dear lover and friend. Chris' expression softens a little, but not too much - otherwise he wouldn't be able to hold back the torrent of emotions welling inside his very SOUL. Instead, he raised a loving hand to his heart, patted it twice and signed "I love you." I heard that after taping stopped, Blake couldn't wait for Chris to finish singing and ran SOBBING into his arms. ***

To help ease the pain of watching these two lovers being RIPPED APART, I made a slideshow that expresses the glory that is CAKE. Pick a song strikes a chord deep within your CAKE heart and hum as you watch. I picked "I Had The Time Of My Life" from the Dirty Dancing soundtrack - it worked for me.






Looking forward to those Cake moments on the AI tour.


*** In case it wasn't obvious, I did take some literary license. ;P

Yay ! Chris is finally gone ! Does that mean that now we have to endure months of bad fan fiction and Cake montages ? Oh, wait, we already are.

Oh Spork you are evil...and yet so awesome!

Well now it's just Blake and the Ladies. I think that actually gives him quite an advantage. Now he has the teenage girl vote all to himself. Means I'm going to have to make sure I vote my little fingers off to keep Melinda from getting Daughtry-ed next week.

There is fanfiction already? I have to see this!

I think that LaKisha will be the next to go, with Melinda going out in 3rd. Not fair, but I think that is how it will go down.

Blake and Melinda in the F2? It will be Carrie/Bo close. Blake and anyone else? Blake will win.

We'll see if I am right or not, but what do you guys think?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! It's history being written all over again!!!!! You are sooooo evil Spork! ;p

So Blake is the last man standing, just as I have thought all along. The three divas will definitely split votes, so that will hurt one of them. I think Lakisha will be going next too. Unless she pulls off another Bon Jovi performance. Even then she still might go home. But the theme next week does favor her. We'll see. I believe she's the most vulnerable now and I think she knows it as well.

I like me some Blake/Melinda F2. Just like Carrie/Bo where they reside on the opposite sides of the music spectrum - it'll be fun to watch. Both bring excellent yet different artistry to their music. It'll be a great showdown.

I agree with you Spork, Blake/Melinda F2 will be close, with Melinda squeaking out a win. Blake and the others will give Blake the easy win.

And to piss off TPTB he'll beatbox the coronation song! My life is complete.

Hello! This is what I've been saying all along.

I think a Blake/ Melinda final 2 would make me happy but I still think Melinda can and should pull out a win. Anthony agrees with me. He does!

Hey has anyone checked out any of the songs being considered for the coronation song? Apparently you can check them out on the Idol site. I'll look at them tomorrow to see what people have come up with. I mean they can't be any more hokey than Inside Your Thank You America can they?

Thanks Rulz. Anthony did look nice in that black shirt.

Ohhh Cake is no more! Someone direct me to the nearest Cake fan orum please, afterall it's what I did with Canthony, it's all the same isn't it? I loved your version of events Spork! ;)

I think LaKisha will be going next and I really would like a Melinda Jordin finale but I agree that it might just be Blake. He SO will beatbox on the winner's song and that alone will be worth the watch!

And BY THE WAY, I still like I wanna be inside..thank you Americaaaa! I listen to it regularly (ok every 3 months or so) and still think ahhh that's nice. Nice...

I'm just off to stare at Fedorov's nipple...

Best topic transition EVER! I was mezmerized by the peeking nipple yesterday.

I like it NOW once Carrie and her band reworked it into that wonderful acoustic version. I'm all about that. The original arrangement...I don't know.

I can just look at my avatar. :D

Your avatar rocks my world, but I chose a more "innocent" pic of Anthony. I am trying to clean up my act.


Ok, not really...;P

Forked Tongue said...

I prefer the larger version...

LOL

Just click on the avatar twice and voila! Full size pic of ripped shirt not quite covering Anthony goodness.
