Thursday... American Idol... Season 6, Results Show I

Before it begins, I'd like to re-visit my predictions. I actually don't think that Phil Stacey will be voted out. He did finish well and closed out the show, so I think he may get more votes because of that. I'm allowing myself to change my elimination vote from Phil to Rudy Cardenas.

More to come... LIVE!

• Randy - "It's a girl's race to lose."
• Paula looks "not drunk" again.
• Simon agrees, the guys didn't stand out.
• Bunch of guest judges or performers this year, including J-Lo, G-Stef and T-Ben.
  

Aaaand here comes another way-too-long recap. Haley wasn't great either. I won't be shocked if she goes tonight.

Why would Simon accuse Seacrest of trying to date Alaina if he is so gay?

Group song! Tears For Fears - The Seeds of Love

• Fix your hat, Phil. Doolittle looks like she just threw some clothes on after rolling out of bed.
• Not bad overall. I'd download that version.

More to come...

The votes are in! But we have another 45 minutes or so to sit through.

Chris loves Simon. Paula almost vomits in disgust.

And here we go...

• Brandon (one of my top guys) is safe.
• Sundance is safe.
• Chris Richardson is safe (ugh).
• Vote for (Nick) Pedro is safe.
• Blake (my #1 guy) is safe.
• Paul Kim is out. I am 1 for 1.

Oh yeah, I forgot the eliminated get to sing again. What if all reality shows did this? "Mike, you've been voted off Survivor Island. Before you go, please complete all your challenges again. We'll wait."

Here come the girls in the back row...

• Jordin Sparks is safe.
• Stephanie (my #2) is safe.
• Sabrina (my #1) is "the one to beat" and safe.
• Leslie Hunt is safe.
• Doolittle is safe.
• Antonella (who I picked to leave) is safe. I'm 1 for 2.

Ooh, Amy comes up alone and goes home. I am possibly now 2 for 2. But I doubt they'd call Antonella back out there, so I'm probably 2 for 3.

Did she just ask the band if she should start now, or am I hearing things?

Paul and Amy are gone, so I'm calling myself 2 for 2 right now, since there is the slight possibility Antonella was only safe from the first elimination.

Wow, the easiest trivia in history. I'll go enter for free online. BRB.

Fantasia is performing. Jebus her mouth is HUGE. Don't swallow the microphone, Fanny! My eyes and ears hurt. I think I'll go do something else.

More to come...

More girls...

• Someone was safe and I didn't hear who. Haley, I think. Yeah, her.
  
• Lakisha is safe. (duh)
• Gina Glocksen is safe. Simon almost looked nervous with his face in his hands. Or maybe he's bored.
• Alaina and Nicole are left, neither of whom got good feedback.
• Alaina is.... safe. Nicole is out, and I'm officially at best 2 for 3.

You know, I almost picked her, but I think she is very similar looks-wise to Amy and I didn't expect them both to go home. Plus, I thought she was better than at least four girls. So I went with Antonella. Hey, if you consider Leslie a redhead, we're now out of blonde girls! That was quick. Wow, I wrote that whole paragraph mistakingly thinking Alaina left.

Aw, who is going to watch the series finale of the OC? Me neither.

Time is tight, Ryan Let's go!

• Chris Sligh is funny, and safe.
• Phil is second, so he won't leave. Good thing I changed my vote. He's safe.
• Jared is safe, and not the Subway guy.
• Simon still looks bored, or sick.
• AJ is safe.
• Sanjaya or Rudy will be leaving. One is in the top 4. Wow. I bet the girls like Sanjaya.
• Rudy is going home! What a good trade-up I did. This makes me 3 for 4 overall on the week.

I love when Paula gets all lovey, saying Rudy has one of the best vocals and Simon is just like "No." Obviously he's right lady, he is leaving. She wants to go give rudy some huggles and kissies.

Is this a Daughtry song in the background? Let's all cheer for no more "Bad Day"!

In summary -
My picks: Paul, Amy, Rudy, Antonella
Who left?: Paul, Amy, Rudy, Nicole.
