Wowser, Adam almost bit the dust tonight, what a surprise.

I think people aren't bothering to vote for Adam because they think he is a "sure thing". I bet he was shaking in his boots. I've never voted on Idol, perhaps it is time to pick up the phone.

Just goes to show that you never know what will happen. Remember a few years back when they had the Youg red headed boy John Stevens from season 3, that was the CROONER that kept staying around week after week. He was so bad even the judges couldnt figure out why he was there everyweek. Same here, Adam is by far the best, no way should Adam or Kris been in the Bottom 3.

That is one reason I dont watch the show that much and it gets alot of criticism from everyone. I had been watching it lately with the family due to Adam. But lastnight reminded me why I dont. But it is america...

Wow - that was a close one. I also think people aren't voting for Adam since they figure he already has it in the bag. Also, it was so obvious the remaining five are all so much better than Taylor Hicks. I will never understand how he won.

Default Adam Lambert in the bottom two?

Quite a surprise. Maybe, it was that little sneer he made at the end of his song on Tuesday night or you guys and gals are probably right that he looks like a sure winner and people have been trying to protect other favorites.


I have not watched last night's show yet as I was watching something else while taping American Idol.

The DVD of Bride Wars has a few references to Paula and Simon from AI.

I think what's happening is some people don't want so much of the theatrics.
I think next week we are going to see more of a classic style from Adam without the theatrics. He is made for broadway. I can see him doing Phantom of the Opera. WOW !
It was time for Matt to go.

The problem with Allison is everything sounds the same. She has a decent voice, but I don't like to watch her. I could never listen to an album of hers. Adam needs now to let everyone know that he is capable of making an album people would listen to.

As I've stated before, I'm not an Adam fan, but I think one reason he might have been in the bottom three is a backlash from people who don't enjoy the judges so obviously promoting Adam.

Adam and Allison should be the best next week with the Rock and Roll theme. I think that Kris will be the one to go next week.

For whatever reason,and we will never know ,Adam was in the bottom three and the producers decided to capitalize on that. What was really shameful was to make him choose which group he thought he was in...that exercise had no, nada , zilch, purpose other than to embarrass him. STUPID. He is overly dramatic but totally comfortable with that persona...that's showmanship.

Taylor Hicks was awful.......last nights appearance was screaming not singing....I was once again left wondering how he won over Katherine McFee.......she had a fantastic voice.

Yes, Adam will be a star one way or another, but I do think he deserves to win Idol. He stood in a line of thousands just like everyone else.

I still like Taylor Hicks, but at least 3 this year would have beat him hands down. Adam, Allison and Danny.

However! Natalie Cole! I thought she was so terrible, I don't think she could even get through the auditions of AI. She was just awful!

I agree that Natalie Cole was terrible. And I wasn't really impressed with Jamie Foxx either! Taylor Hicks definitely has that New Orleans Cajun flavor to his music, and you either like it or you don't. I still think he was very charming, and that is half the reason he won. There is no doubt that this season has more talent than most of the previous seasons.

The "results" American Idol show is designed to make everyone feel uncomfortable. Asking Adam to choose which group he thought he was in .. I agree with Beads that it was shameful and solely to embarrass him.

I think Kris has a huge following among teenage girls and he is a cutie pie. Teenage girls probably vote the most often. As we've seen in the past, the Idol Crown doesn't always go to the most talented.
