‘American Idol’: SHOCKING Results Show

TONIGHT’S RESULTS ARE ALL THE WAY AT THE BOTTOM OF PAGE!
SPOILER ALERT: I am blogging live  from the result’s show. If you want to know who is in the bottom three right now and who gets voted off and eliminated on American Idol Thursday April 7, look below. If you want a behind-the-scenes of Wednesday night’s performance night – keep reading.

This season, I have heard a lot of complaints from fans about the judges’ comments being too nice. Well, let me tell you why they are seemingly too positive: When you hear the contestants sing live on the Idol stage and in person, they all sound fantastic.

These top nine finalists are extremely talented and they even sound better in person than they do on TV. That’s why Jennifer Lopez, Steven Tyler and Randy Jackson heap so much praise on them.

When Jacob Lusk sang Man in the Mirror last night, every person in the studio had goosebumps. We all knew we had just witnessed an Idol event to be remembered for years to come. While Scotty McCreery electrified the crowd, James Durbin moved us to tears. Pia Toscano sounded amazing on her first up tempo;song but JLo was right – she definitely needs to up her showmanship. Stefano Langone connected with the lyrics so much, we could feel it his passion for the song.


Paul McDonald was the perfect way to end the show with a bang! His style is so infections. His smile is even more infectious. And his teeth are so brightly white, we could see them from 200 feet away. His rendition of Johnny Cash’s Fulsom Prison Blues made the entire place so happy, that we all felt as we were kids at Disneyland. While Idol replayed of each Idol‘s performance and their phone numbers on TV, in the studio, all Idols ran to stage and hugged and congratulated Paul on his performance. And the entire time the numbers and replays played on TV, the Idols were dancing and doing the Dosey Doe! You could tell that they all really like each other.

The biggest Idol cheerleader in the crowd last night was Christian Slater! He was pumping his fists and rocking to every contestant’s song! He is obviously a true Idol fan. And the judges – unlike previous years when they left the studio during commercial breaks, they all stayed with the audience and during each break, a team of two to three makeup and hair people would work on each judge to make sure they looked pretty for the next segment.

Back to the contestants…they were all so mesmerizing last night that I am sad to see any of them go home…but that’s how Idol works, so, here are the results from Thursday’s (April 7) results show:

LIVE BLOGGING:
Safe: Casey; Lauren, Scotty, Paul, Haley, James.
Bottom three: Stafano, Pia, Jacob.
Voted Off: PIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

VIDEO: Jacob Lusk Wants Us To Look At The “Man In The Mirror”

We’re down to the final nine on American Idol and every one of our contestants was “in it to win it” Wednesday night –If I may borrow an oft-used Randy Jackson line.

I was on set for this very special Rock & Roll Hall of Fame episode and will write a full review later tonight about the experience watching Idol LIVE, I mean REALLY LIVE, in the quaint 700-person studio. So, check back to read the full story.

But for now, I will share the performance video below by Jacob Lusk who sang Michael Jackson’s Man in the Mirror, being backed up on vocals by Siedah Garrett, the co-writer of MJ’s iconic song.

Lusk ditched Let’s Get It On at the last minute in favor of Man in the Mirror because he could not identify with the “do the nasty” message of Marvin Gaye’s hit. The decision was a success as Lusk really connected with MJ’s message. Every person in the studio had goosebumps when Lusk finished because we all knew we had all just witnessed something amazing together.

Watch the performance for yourself:
