Tune in tonight to hear Taylor Hicks perform his single, “Seven Mile Breakdown.” Will last night’s mentor, Jamie Foxx, also come out to perform? I wouldn’t be surprised, but I haven’t seen that confirmed yet.

I believe Alison will go home
April 29th, 2009 at 7:58 am
Let’s hope she (Allison)will go home. Danny and Adam were the best, though nobody was really awful alst night, surprisingly.
Well, of course stupid Kara and Randy had to pimp Allison to the extreme AGAIN last night. They must be sucking up to the producers. At least Simon has the bal** to tell her she may be in trouble. We can only hope….
Hey–and Matt has never been my favorite, but he was pretty good last night too.
April 29th, 2009 at 8:33 am
I think danny and adam were the best by far. adam is my favorite and should and will win this competition.. he is amazing. Not only is his voice amazing he can perform and out shine everyone every week. I think allison should go home because it seems like I am in a smokey cigar room whenever she sings. Don’t get me wrong I liked her in the beginning but now she just seems eh.. and why do the judges keep saying she is the best when clearly she is the underdog. She does not even come close to the others as far as talent. Matt was really good though. Either of those two should go in the next couple of weeks. I hope it is adam, kris, and danny in the final three!!!!
April 29th, 2009 at 9:03 am
I believe Alison will go home, and it will be 4 boys and Danny and Adam were the best. Adam can sing and shine each week and I hope its Kris, Danny, and Adam in the final three!!!!!!!!!!!!
Matt was still good, but not great enough.
April 29th, 2009 at 9:28 am
I think Matt should go home, I don’t think they should have saved him in the first place. By far Adam is the best and should win it he is amazing every week he so much better than any of the others. Final two Adam and Danny
April 29th, 2009 at 9:39 am
Beth-when the heck are you going to learn. Allison is CLEARLY better than Danny. Although both have an amzing voice, Allison looks good when she sings. Danny looks childish, pathetic and idiotic. Is that what you want the next idol to be?
April 29th, 2009 at 10:41 am
Adam sounds the same every week…its getting boring…all he does is scream like the gay boy he is
April 29th, 2009 at 11:04 am
John:
Keep your bigoted comments to yourself. You must have some latent homosexual tendencies to go out of your way and post on-line about another man’s supposed sexual orientation; I just can’t see a stright man doing that. Don’t take your frustrations with yourself, your identity, out on Adam. Go get some counseling and try to accept yourself and be happy. You don’t have to be Dr. Phil to figure this one out.
April 29th, 2009 at 11:10 am
Danny is a lovely guy, but so un-cool. How could he ever be marketed by Simon’s record label? Adam has heaps of personality & an amazing voice. Put him in front of a great rock band & he’ll certainly do the biz, BUT he’s not ever going to be a solo star. My predictions: 1) Adam 2) Chris 3) Allison OR Danny. So it’s bye-bye sweet Matt this week.
April 29th, 2009 at 11:18 am
H in London, I think you need to keep your comments to yourself. Matt is by far the best on the show and he has the most talent by far. It is Allison’s week to go. Allison is getting so boring. Nikki, they should save Matt any day over the others on there. Thanks TS, someone that sees Matt for his beautiful singing talent. He has been my favorite since the beginning. Go MATT!!!! HOPE YOU ARE SAFE TONIGHT!!!!!!!
April 29th, 2009 at 11:20 am
Danny has the best voice by far, but I think Adam will win because he always come over very big, plus he has that wow factor and great stage performance.
April 29th, 2009 at 11:42 am
I also thought Matt was awesome last night Leeann, me & you are always on the same page. Authentic like Simon said. Did something different than he normally does. Isn’t that the point? Actually Simon wasen’t hating on him like he usally does, he picked on Kris saying his performance was wet?? He said Matt, Danny, and Adam’s performances were like they came out to win it. Hope Matt is safe and Allison goes tonight. Go Matt !! And eddington I’m missing that wow factor in Danny.
April 29th, 2009 at 11:55 am
Matt needs to go. I think Simon said something nice to him because he hadn’t in a while, and he can see that Matt is trying to stay in, but he would never win. Allison and Adam are my final 2! I love both voices. Kris and Danny are ok.
April 29th, 2009 at 12:59 pm
I think the judges are making sure Adam wins. Why was he last to sing again? He was last 2 weeks ago. I am tired of his screechy voice. I am sure he will win but I don’t think he will go very far.
April 29th, 2009 at 1:02 pm
Danny was awesome! I played the tape over and over again to hear him! He nailed it. Allison should go home. I wish Danny would win it all! Adam does not look like an “American Idol” to me with that black nail polish. Not cool.
April 29th, 2009 at 1:05 pm
Danny was awesome! I played his song over and over again. I hope he wins it! I do not think Adam looks or acts like an “American Idol” with that black nail polish and gothic look he has going on. Allison is going home tonight but she has an amazing voice. Reminds me of Janis Joplin.
April 29th, 2009 at 1:10 pm
I think DANNY was the best by far. Adam is a very good performer - broadway style great… but i wish there could be a show where they would not have had practiced so many times before…. then we’ll see the REAL SINGER!!!
April 29th, 2009 at 1:15 pm
I love Adam he is amazing
April 29th, 2009 at 1:21 pm
Adam will be the next superstar, just watch.I am not a fan ,however I know when I see talent. When he performs It feels as though you are at concert. I may not even know the song ,but the boy does great,and you find yourself liking a song you don’t even know.He look like Elvis.The next Micheal J or Elvis P
April 29th, 2009 at 1:28 pm
Go Adam you are already a star!!!
April 29th, 2009 at 1:41 pm
Ian- Not sure you were referring to me, but no way Danny is waaaaay better than Allison. She is good but not as good, she is only 17 and has a lot to learn. Every time she sings I feel I am in a smokey bar… Adam is the only reason I really watch right now. Danny at least has great showmanship. Also to the bigot up there, you must be confused as to who you are if you are that angry about Adam and care about his sexuality. Maybe you are gay yourself and can’t come to terms with it. Remember people who are quick to be on the defensive and spew hate..something else is going on…….
April 29th, 2009 at 2:17 pm
I am so hoping that the next winner will be
Danny, what a voice. Adam is definately an entertainer, but would you really buy his cd’s. They would all sound the same, just a bunch of screaming and I am really tired of the screaming. Wish he would try something else next time. The judges are so quick to point that out to all the others, but not to him. Everything he does sounds the same and if you couldn’t see him……it would be LOUD AND BORING!
April 29th, 2009 at 2:20 pm
Hailing from Barbados! I especially like Adam , he’s the greatest..Danny doesn’t impress me one bit!
April 29th, 2009 at 2:39 pm
Im pretty sure matt will be going home.
adam and kris should be the final 2.
and allison should be the 3rd finialist. matt and danny can go home but id rather matt go home
April 29th, 2009 at 3:21 pm
Allison will probably leave……Matt next
I wish it was Adam because he will make it anyway,,,and I don’t really like watching him sing..I think Kris and Danny are the best and anyone could sit and listen to them in a concert for couple hours……..
April 29th, 2009 at 3:27 pm
Good-bye Matt!! It’s time!
April 29th, 2009 at 3:38 pm
Matt it is time for you to go. Adam and Danny final 2
April 29th, 2009 at 3:40 pm
Matt took Jamie’s advice and sung it in one key. It may have been hard for him (having said that) I think he did a excellant job, with such a difficult song to sing. Thought Danny’s performance looked hidious. Couldn’t watch the whole thing. Adam’s just Adam, don’t need to say more. Kris’s was safe ughh Allison, good-bye it’s your time now. Final 2 Matt and whoever (really don’t care)
April 29th, 2009 at 3:42 pm
adam- a diva
matt- creative and versatile singer
allison-dark horse
kris-singing heartrob
danny-a perfect soulful and endearing singer
April 29th, 2009 at 4:23 pm
When Allison was singing Someone to Watch Over Me if I didn’t know the word was Watch I wouldn’t have known what she was saying(singing)
April 29th, 2009 at 4:25 pm
i totally agree with robin…Danny and Kris are the best out of all of them… and i despise adam…hes ok but its the same thing every week. He starts out slow and ends in the AHHHHH!!!!! scream…its getting old adam i think its time for him to goooo….
April 29th, 2009 at 4:44 pm
anyone here from the manila Philippines?
April 29th, 2009 at 5:10 pm
I JUST LOVE ADAM HE IS THE BEST EVER ON IDOL. HE WILL BE A SUPER STAR. I LOOK FORWARD EVERY WEEK TO SEE HIM. WHAT TALENT. IF HE DOESNT WIN THERE IS SOMETHING VERY WRONG. I THINK THE JUDGES SHOULD HAVE THE LAST SAY. THIS WEEL ALISON OR MATT WILL GO.
April 29th, 2009 at 5:27 pm
Alison
April 29th, 2009 at 5:29 pm
Adam can perform, but I also dislike his performance. He is so theatrical and unreal. After all, he has been in theatre, since he was
eight. He is quite the drag queen. I really think, anyone can choose their own sexuality, he is just creepy to me….
April 29th, 2009 at 5:29 pm
Wouldn’t it be GREAT if the bottom 2 were Adam and Danny? Just to shake things up !!
April 29th, 2009 at 5:32 pm
Go Allison!!!!!!!!!! Cant wait to see your first video on MTV,and your first number one hot hit on the air waves!!!!!!!!!! Good Luck tonight no matter what the out come, as you will be around for a very long time,and with fans like me hopefully we can put some major coin in your pocket!
April 29th, 2009 at 5:32 pm
My American Idol final Prediction:
Our Idol- Adam (although I think Kris is the dark horse)
2) kris- my surprise prediction
3)Danny-
4) Matt
%) Allison- sorry going home tonight!!!
April 29th, 2009 at 5:35 pm
Thomas P Vote for Allison she is the best,as she will have many hits! Even if she is out tonight,she will rock the air wavesno matter what,and get rich doing it!
April 29th, 2009 at 5:35 pm
I think Matt will go home…he was singing in an uncomfortable range and was very pitchy. Danny outsang good old Adam last night.
April 29th, 2009 at 5:39 pm
Louise, Danny & Kris in a concert for a couple of hours…?? would be quite boring.
April 29th, 2009 at 6:40 pm
i think matt should go home,or allison, kris, danny,and adam in final 3 with kris winning the final and danny 2nd and adam 3rd adam is good but we,ve seen all there is to see with adam. i think theres still alot more of kris we still have yet to see, i cant wait to see it,adam is to sure of himself he thinks he’s gods gift to the world. and that turns me off where he’s concerned, where as kris and danny are humble they are heads above adam for this reason.
April 29th, 2009 at 7:09 pm
Brad I totally agree with you that Allison or Matt should go home (prefer Allison). And the top 3 should be Kris Danny and Adam. However Adam does not even give a hint that he thinks he is gods gift to the world. It is US (his fans) that think he is gods gift to the world. He is amazing and sooo talented beyond words. I have been watching this show for 8 years and never seen anyone with his talent. He comes off as very humble and genuine, not at all narcissistic as you may think. Danny and Kris are awesome too, unfortunately they are in the year where competition is very challenging.
April 29th, 2009 at 7:18 pm
Hey Jan,
Sexuality is not a “choice”–That’s’s why they call it “orientation”–Welcome to the 21st century! Get with the program and stop making insulting statements.
April 29th, 2009 at 7:38 pm
Adam no doubt is very talented and great voice.
Adam also has the experience from being on stage. This is why I think Danny should be the
American Idol. Adam will be a star in his own
right. Danny had to work for it.
April 29th, 2009 at 7:42 pm
I believe Matt will be leaving us tonight. I know that the sexy Danny will be here to stay… The last 3 will be Matt, Allison and Kris and Matt will be the one to leave…. I doubt it will be Allison cause they would never let the only girl to go home….
April 29th, 2009 at 8:14 pm
WIN OR LOOSE
ADAM WILL BE A STAR PLAYER !
ALLISON TOO
CRIS TOO
MATTS GONE
April 29th, 2009 at 8:15 pm
Adam is going to win the show- he has talent, and for all of you guys saying its the same thing every week, its not- its slow some weeks, fast others. he swicthes it up. Either Matt or Alison is going home- Matt was pitchy and is really not as good as everyone thinks and Alison may go home because as the “rocker” of the group she does not attract as many people as the others do
April 29th, 2009 at 8:26 pm
Hopefully Danny or Kris will go home. I am sooo tired of their same sounding songs I can barely stand to watch them. I am really hoping that Matt makes it this week. I see more talent in him than any of the others. Adam is getting very annoying as well, although I think he will win this year. Everyone seems to love him. He is talented but I can’t stand that tongue hanging out when he hits “his high notes”. Why does he do that YUCK! So My pick is Matt, Allison and Adam. See ya Danny and Kris I could care less which one I am just praying one of them are gone!
April 29th, 2009 at 8:30 pm
From what I am reading people need to watch the show again. Matt was the only one that made it sound like the Rat Pack instead of screaming or down right boring. Matt I hope more people feel the way I do. If so you are safe if not you will make it regardless. Good Luck Matt, Although I think Adam will win I hoped you would be 2nd.
April 29th, 2009 at 8:32 pm
First of all Jess are we watching the same show? When Adam’s slow, he’s slow and when he’s fast he screams. Matt was not pitchy. How could he have been pitchy when he sang in one key, which J Foxx told him to do, which I still don’t think was the best idea, but Matt listened. But I do agree with you about Allison, she didn’t seem to attract as many people like the others do. So hope she is the one leaving tonight. We all have our own opinions and will see shortly on tonights show.
April 29th, 2009 at 8:32 pm
Go Matt, I really agree with Janet, you were by far the most believable last night and at least Paula and Simon saw it even if the people didn’t. I am praying for you to make it tonight.
April 29th, 2009 at 8:43 pm
Janet and Lisa, I totally AGREE with you 100%, I’m pulling for Matt tonight. I hope we are right. That would be AWESOME !!!!
April 29th, 2009 at 8:49 pm
DANNY IS FORGETABLE… I DON´T SEE ANY SPECIAL CARREER FOR HIM IN THE FUTURE. KRIS AT LEAST IS ORIGINAL AND REMINDS ME OF SINGERS FROM THE SEVENTIES!!!ALLISON WAS GREAT LAST NIGHT..ADAM SO REFRESHING ..A STAR!!!!IT SEEMS THAT SIMON WANTS TO HAVE “THE BOYS WAR”.SO ALLISON WILL HAVE TO SAY GOODBYE TONIGHT, I HOPE I´M WRONG. CAUSE IN FAIRNESS MATT HAS TO GO… HE LOOKS THE LESS PROFESSIONAL AND HASN´T GROW OVER THE WEEKS….
April 29th, 2009 at 9:26 pm
What? Adam is in the bottom 3??? crazy! my whole family voted Adam for 2 hours last night! crazy!!!!!!!!!!crazy America
April 29th, 2009 at 9:34 pm
So I think that Matt DESERVES to go home- he sounded nasally to both my husband and I and reminded us of “Flail-y Arms” (Megan- she was useless, good riddance). That’s not to say that he was particularly bad, just everyone else was better. Unfortunately, Simon liked him, which would have inspired people to vote for him… and Allison has been in the bottom three a lot, so unfortunately I think she will be gone. Even more so because of being put on the spot with the ‘do you think you can win’ question. I don’t know whether Adam will win or not- it seems likely, but I’m not sure if enough people will be put off by him because of his “unique” stage presence and tendency to sound a bit like Mick Jagger in some of his performances… It depends on what the fans of the eliminated singers do- they may be inclined to vote for ‘anyone but Adam.’ I don’t think he is a sure bet to win, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he does. Personally, I think his voice is phenomenal and he owns the stage, but I absolutely CANNOT watch him while he sings, he looks completely ferral and scary.
April 29th, 2009 at 9:46 pm
J Foxx what an ASS ! Turned him off
April 29th, 2009 at 9:52 pm
Why is Adam such an exception to the rules? He IS a professional, youtube video’s dressed in drag…with his huge stage shows… You seem to forget other contestant thrown off for less…
Adam should bow out, he will be very famous without being the winner.
His experience should have disqualified him from the beginning. Adam should have went on America’s got talent instead.
No offence to anyone, but fair is fair…
April 29th, 2009 at 10:07 pm
Sooo Sadddd ! Good luck in your future MATT G !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 29th, 2009 at 10:24 pm
Wow, all of a sudden a few folks are down on the best talent? Adam has more than proven his talent and ability to win this competition. Lets face it, look at Elton John and Mick Jagger, when you have talent it just shows. Adam has been a stand out from the beginning. Shame some folks got to start knocking talent, and whining. I say Adam all the way.
April 29th, 2009 at 11:59 pm
OKAY ADAM FANS!!….If you really want Adam to win then it’s time to vote exclusively for Adam every week now. Adam in the bottom two? Unbelievable! I’m really hoping that it was because people were still voting to save one of the other contestants while thinking that Adam would be so far ahead that he wouldn’t need the votes. Everyone talks about how great Adam is and yet he was 4th place tonight. VOTE ADAM ONLY!
April 30th, 2009 at 12:12 am
go MATT!!! u dont dserve to go home!! you ROCK!!!
April 30th, 2009 at 10:48 am
If Adam doesn’t win, we will be done watching Idol for good. Their voting system has always been flawed. If you get a busy signal that means the person isn’t getting the votes. Or…they program purposely did it to improve ratings. Week after week, Adam has outperformed his competition. His vocal range is unbelievable. We listen to the show in surround sound theatre quality system. We crank it up as if we are listening to concert to hear their pitch and their tone. Adam has never missed a beat.
Matt should never have gotten the second chance anyhow. All this hoopla about this new option for the judges and they wasted it as far as we are concerned. He wasn’t that good then either.
Idol needs to get it together before they end up losing a lot of viewers. More than they already have, their rating’s are tanking and the fourth judge is an annoyance. Lot’s of blah, blah, blah.
April 30th, 2009 at 12:28 pm
I know I know! I was shock too to see Adam and Chris in the bottom 3, but one never know do one? But anywhoot America is Voting or are they? Those I do think and agree that Danny and Allison are stronger and much and better singer than the other 3, But Adam I in a League all by himself and has been consistant since the beginning of the competition and he’s very good at what he does and for this reason I think he deserves to win.
April 30th, 2009 at 2:06 pm
Go Allison the next American Idol you are the best.
April 30th, 2009 at 8:42 pm
WRONG TONY G. she is only there due to judge-pimping! Never would have made it to the top 10 last season! You are so lame–Allison has become the opium of the masses for fools like you! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhahahhaHAHAHAHAhhahahhah!!!
April 30th, 2009 at 8:50 pm
I am still sick over Matt leaving, it should have been Kris or Danny they do not belong there. I am finished with this season I think it is all rigged and our votes do not matter at all!
April 30th, 2009 at 10:28 pm
Come-on now Matt deserved what he got,he’s not good as those who are remaining.go Danny!!
May 1st, 2009 at 10:44 am
It’s so obvious that Adam is head and shoulders above
the rest.He’s the only one that listens to the 3 demands the judges have laid out to win the contest. One - pick songs that fit your style.Two - be entertaining by making the song your own. Three - be the best singer.
The other 3 just don’t measure up. If he doesn’t win
it’s a joke. This show can’t afford another Taylor Hicks.
May 3rd, 2009 at 3:23 pm
Let’s see if the judges pimp Allison again this week! Wake up Judges! It is too far into the final to pimp your favorites–especially since there is one obvious one who is in a leaugue of his own.
May 5th, 2009 at 5:00 pm
I still think the judges have some power in the votes in some way. Maybe they have some sort of phones that start early and dial continuously leaving millions of votes? And their wasting that vote to keep Matt was downright stupid - really!
Adam is awesom - a league above. The boys were so much better this year overall, but Allison certainly is the best girl. She really needs to get it together and shine, or Danny will outdo her. He’s very popular with people and has a star-like personality.
The 4th judge is a little too much. Let’s face it - we watch the show to see what stupid thing Paula and Simon will do next. The other new judge is a little too serious.
May 5th, 2009 at 8:45 pm
It is all fixed, after Matt being sent home when it clearly should have been KRIS that dude sucks HARD! I can’t wait to see him leave tomorrow. Then DANNY ugh BORING he needs to be called Mr. boring sounds the same every single week. Then the winner will be of course Adam!How people can say that Matt sucked have no taste in music he should still be up there. Sorry but I think he was wonderful and I can barely stand to watch tonight because he is gone. I think he took it better than me.
Matt I wish you much success, I think you will be a huge success!
May 5th, 2009 at 9:20 pm
Looked like Adam needed a little help with his eye liner……..scary looking!!!!
May 6th, 2009 at 12:39 pm
Adam Adam Adam! Hmmmmm! What can one say about Adam He’s fantistic, good , great, he even put you n the mind of ELVIS! BUT that mascara on the bottom of his eye lashes were a bit much, what happen to Just a little bit of eyeliner.
May 6th, 2009 at 1:36 pm
Ok I get it, just read and saw the pictures of Lambert,,,, what handsome waste
