Oops. The event I thought I was going to is actually scheduled for April 5, not tonight. So I arrived a week early. But the upside; I get to live blog tonight! So slow blog below or live blog with me as we find out who gets eliminated. Could it be Heejun? DeAndre? Some shocker?

Thanks for liveblogging Rodney, I need some advance information so I can avoid half the show if need be.

Present as well. I’m on the record. I may walk in the other room and close the doors, put chairs up, put my dresser up to the door to block out Niki Minaj’s performance. Like Jenny and Mr.Patootie stated, I’m not in the mood to waste my time listening to cat’s tail in the door.

And Meriek, did you get a severance package? And it is totally on topic!!! We care for each other!
Miss Javon

Sorry Merlek3! It’s happened to me TWICE before and NEVER saw it coming! As for Hollie…not surprised. She performed a horrible rendition of Carrie’s song and her mediocrity was exposed.

Prom dresses and Carrie Underwood overdone remakes have taken their toll on Hollie. Plus, the girls have to be 3 X better than the guys to survive.

Seriously? This waste of no-talent is actually making money and selling concerts and records? What I take from this is that actually ANY of us can go record a song. Ewww…off-key a bit?

Charro called and wants back her stolen act.

Of course, I am listening and watching Black Lady Gaga (and please, that is not a slur). She has a very nice singing voice when she leaves this persona behind.
I see her imitating, MaryJ, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, with her own image infused in there somewhere. The real Minaj is when she sings.

Nikki Minaj? She’s selling well. She dresses like a hot star. Hollie could have stayed-out of the bottom 3 with that act and dress.

STyler is not feeling her.
Miss Javon

Check out Jennifer’s face! LOL! She was not impressed! And great response! Not enough room for them both up there!

No one is feeling Nikki Minaj except the boy with his hands under her top!

@Angela – No this was a complete fire. I was not given the tools to complete my job and even forced to steal software to complete the project. My manager had no idea what to have me do! From the start, this job was doomed to be a failure.

@Merlek3 – stay positive. That door closed, bet you a double door will open.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Hollie leave. She has been flat (bad choice after the Nikki show) for several weeks but that Carrie impersonation left alot to be desired.

Dial Idol has Deandre leaving, but Jessica is right behind him so I don’t put a great deal of stock in that!

Miss Javon – forget JLo’s voice, did you pay attention to STyler’s body language?
Angela

Meriek3….I am SO sorry!!!!

Missed you too, Angela.
Perhaps it’s just me, I don’t like to watch singers who sing with their eyes closed (Heejun).

Pitchy…I missed STyler’s body language…I’ll have to rewatch that on my record! I’m pretty sure everything below was pointing south if you get my drift! heehee…

Oh, I love Scotty!!

You know I love country, yet when Scotty started singing, my mind went to a soundtrack for a John Wayne movie (just the beginning).
Miss Javon
March 29th, 2012

Check out Little Scotty!!! I’m no country music listener but he’s got it going on! HOW young is he? We got a kid that’s gonna be around a while.
Seth T

Scotty’s still got that sprained neck that tilt’s to the right.
Pitchy
March 29th, 2012

I still like him still.
Pitchy
March 29th, 2012

Can you see his growth in being comfortable on the stage like I do??
Angela

I think Scotty has gained experiance from being on the road!
Miss Javon
March 29th, 2012
8:45 pm
Absolutely Pitchy! He is c-o-n-f-i-d-e-n-t!!! More like a young man now than that goofy teen-age boy!

Is it too much to ask that Heejun leave tonight? I know that Hollie hasn’t been stretching herself, even though she has an amazing voice, but the Heejun era needs to end.
Seth T

Scotty never did anything big or risky on the show, but stayed country, consistent, and his duets with Lauren helped him as well – she helped to get him to the top in my opinion.

So based on these comments, Hee Jun is in danger over Deandre?
