The Top 12 also gets to do the Ford Commercials, I think. If they bring back the AI CD, they will all be on it. The Top 12 gets to be on the AI finale.

That's why the last spot is called the "pimp spot". Of course you can survive it and many have but usually it really hurts when you're already on the bubble. The top 12 used to mean you'd be on the album but last season they didn't bother since everything by that point was already on iTunes. Who knows this season.

Can somebody explain to me the "going first" order? What does that mean? Does that mean that audience has not turned AI on the TV yet? I don't get that. Because some others went first like Michael John and he's still there. I am sure sure sure that the vocal coaches and others on the show give the singers "tips" and "hints"...if not they should read the fan sites and blogs before making choices. There are some do's and dont's of AI, there's practically a manual on how to audition and what to sing, how to act, etc. Fashion & what you wear has a lot to do with it too.

I mean yeah first is always a disadvantage, but she really needs a slice of humble pie the way she's basically saying it's all TBTB's fault and her choices or maybe just the fact that people don't think she was good enough for top 12 have nothing to do with it. Taylor, Jordin, Carre, Kelly, etc all went first at some point, and yet that didn't stop them from winning. I never realized she was that into herself. Makes me not as upset over her elimination.

The problem was though, if he too had sung a singers song, showed what he could do he might have had a shot. He has a good strong voice, but tainted love did not show it.

He really has no idea what people generally think of "Wake Me Up Before you Go Go" that it's the campiest of camp. No way a song like that could work, unless the contestant had his tongue in his cheek--which Luke certainly did not. Asia'h is pretty clueless too, but I'll chalk that up to her youth.

Luke never listened. He needed a singers song to show off his vocal chops not a Wham song to display his girly tenor. Kady cry me river have you watched the show before, ditto Asiah. I think her pants were her downfall, the song was fine. Danny I guess doesn't really want to be a singer so much as a personality. Glad I know that now. I do appreciate him though. Gay kids have such a hard time, hell, gay people in general have a hard time. It's good to see someone so young be so secure in his individuality. That did show courage. Maybe MTV has a show for him.
