Who In The World Do You Think You Are?

I'm considering no longer making any fearless predictions because I've been so far off this year. Snow White and Quiet Man's performances were so far off it wasn't even close and yet neither of them were in the Bottom 2, much to their surprise as well as mine. It's gotten so bad that even Randy has concluded that "It must be a bit of a popularity week in the vote." I got news for you Dawg, it's like that every week.

Too bad for Carly, she finally learned to relax on stage and sure enough she gets the boot. Maybe that's why she is gone and Brooke is still there. Every time the camera focused on Snow White tonight it looked like her head was about to explode, even after Ryan declared her to be safe. If she keeps that up Brooke might actually win this competition, with help from her "gynormous" fan base that includes Vote For The Worst.com, who by the way are besides themselves with glee since they've been leading the anti-Ringer Girl campaign ever since she auditioned. I also learned from VFTW that someone has actually statistically proven that the closer spot is the best one to sing from and the leadoff spot is the one most likely to get voted off that week. Check the numbers out here if you dare.

Ryan was in fine form this evening. He kissed Simon on the head and declares the "it didn't mean anything." Trained Seal then caught Captain Jack sucking a candy and admonished Simon for not paying attention to the show while he's on it. Then at the end with the final results in hand Ryan declares that "it's time to put these lovely ladies out of their misery," and that Carly is "a real star." The folks at MCA might have a different opinion on that last comment and a different thought about the comment before. Not to be outdone Drunk Chick comforted Syesha by telling her that she should be proud to be in the Bottom 2.

It was nice for President and Mrs. Bush to submit a video appeal for Idol Gives Back donations, even if it was two weeks late.

We also learned tonight that Andrew Lloyd Webber is not a singer; that Syesha looks pretty sexy in black leather; that Ryan, Paula, and Simon all had different hairstyles in Season 1; that Clay Aiken is coming out with a new album soon; that Simon discovery Leona Lewis has a very interesting skin tone; that Syesha has more fun being someone else; that the Idol tour begins in Jordin Sparks' hometown July 1; that Carly donated the T-shirt that proclaimed that Simon liked her; that Simon finds Jason charming; and that Captain Jack's compliments are the kiss of death to those whom the producers want to send home.

Next week it's The Neil, and I think this is when the contestants start singing two songs instead of one. Will anyone dare to sing "I Am, I Said", "Girl, You'll Be A Woman Soon", or "I'm A Believer"? And how much do you want to bet that Syesha will sing "You Don't Bring Me Flowers"? As usual I can't wait to find out.
