Tonight on American Idol 2012, we’ll say goodbye to the first member of the Top 13 and, as we learned last night, not in the normal American Idol fashion.
That’s right, the guy with the least amount of votes will stand next to the girl with the least amount of votes as Randy, Jennifer and Steven decide that the guy which person will go home. But for now you can still vote for your favorite in our poll.
And like I said last night, I think it’s a pretty safe bet that, since it’s the judge’s choice, the bottom guy will be going home. We know they’ve been trying to push for a girl winner the past several years (and JLo mentioned again last night), so they will most likely be shipping home a guy.
Mary J. Blige, who was a great mentor by the way, will take the stage to perform live. Also performing is Idol Season 10 runner up Lauren Alaina.
Be sure to head back here at American Idol showtime as Matt gives you the results live and share your thoughts as the show plays out. Also, join us on Facebook & Twitter and we’ll keep you updated all season!
The best is shannon
With vftw and me and all the other fans
shannon for the win
Colten I think is the best idal
Bottom 3 would probaly been
Jermaine
Jeremy
Elise
now the lowest boy and girl
Elise
Jermaine
Hollie Your Safe
Jessica Your Safe
Phillip Your Going Home Lol Lol
My Least Fav to watch is Joshua Just boring and forgettable
sklyar boring forgettable i was thinking there was 5 girls until 2 hours and it hit me theres 6
Next Week Aerosmith week like if you want it
I’d love an Aerosmith week as it would have some uptempo performance with the exception of whoever does “I don’t want to miss a thing” I wonder if we’ll see Steven get really critical if that’s the case as those are his songs.
I’d rather have a Bon Jovi week. Something for everyone, ballads, pop, rock, and inspiration.
Good call!
i’d love to see what they would do with dylan
They already did that a couple years ago
Did what? Bon Jovi or Dylan?
Joshua is Forgettable forgot about him until i saw a comment below
Jennifer is right for accidentally uttering a two-girl face0off in the finals! It’s a fight between Jessica and Hollie definitely!
Maybe a girl vs girl year however
i think a guy will go tonight cuz
it will be 6 girls and 6 guys this is beacuse they dont want the girls gone now so hopefully jermaine is gone
Yes, you are right, they are 2 best in this competition but I prefer
Jessica Sanchez to be this year’s American Idol.
The Gentle Gian will be sent home (again).. Sorry, he sure has got the voice, but last night kinda flat..
i think the gentle gient has the same voice has the man that sung
let my people go.
Google american idol let my people go
NO WAY he’s that bad…that guy was hilarious though, good memories.
It’s interesting to see duet between Lauren and Skylar. She will definitely outshine her……
Lauren is better not really sme type of country music
i say skylar gets number 7
would be interesting
however
Lee and Phil Would be boring
I’m finding Skylar more entertaining than Lauren.
Lauren is way much better than skylar .
agreed
Jessica Sanchez is my favorite
do you know what the results are?
Yeah 52 Minutes of hype Jessica getting praised even more
Bottom 2
Jermaine
Erika
Um i wonder who gets the boot haha
Here’s my thoughts.
Joshua-He had a good performance but it was kind of forgettable. I think he’ll be safe though.
Elise- Maybe they shouldn’t have changed her song. If they were doing a bottom 3 this week I think she’d be in it. Hard to say, but I don’t think she’s the girl with the lowest number of votes, but I could be wrong.
Jermaine-Forgettable performance, he was voted into the top 13 on the sympathy vote for being the 13th guy. If there were a bottom 3 this week I think he’d be in it.
Erika- I think she’ll be low on the vote count but I wouldn’t put her in the bottom 3 if they were doing on this week.
Colton- Not a great performance, but he’ll be safe.
Shannon- I think she’s the girl with the least votes. If there were a bottom 3 this week she’d be in it and I believe she’d be going home if it were up to America this week. I could be wrong however and it could be Elise instead.
Deandre- I think he did enough to avoid the bottom and will be safe this week.
Skylar- I enjoyed her performance last night and I believe that she will be safe.
Heejun- I believe that he will be safe because he gave a decent performance and also did his comedy thing, but if he wants to be a true contender he needs to move away from ballads and do something uptempo before people get bored with his performances and his comedy.
Hollie- She’s a contender and had a great performance so she will be safe.
Jeremy- If there were a bottom 3 this week then I believe that he might not be in it, but he would be close to going into it. He really needs to step it up and bring the type of intensity he brought during his wildcard performance.
Jessica- Safe for sure
Phil-I think he will be safe, though I was kind of underwhelmed by his performance as we already seen him do that song. I’m sure there are some other Stevie Wonder songs he could have done to show us something we haven’t already seen.
If there were a bottom 3 this week this is who I think would be in it.
Elise
Jermaine
Shannon.
And if this week were based on who got the lowest number of votes then the eliminated contestant would be.
Shannon
However since it comes down to the guy and girl with the least number of votes then I believe it will come down this:
Guy with the least number of votes: Jermaine
Girl with the least number of votes: Shannon
And since it seems they want to gear it towards having a female winner this year it will be Jermaine who is sent packing though I believe that it really ought to be Shannon who leaves. Sorry I’m just of the mind of having the best singer win whether that singer is male or female. And also I’m a huge Jessica and Hollie fan.
Also if any Idol producers are reading this then please have a no ballads allowed theme!!! Make these contestants go uptempo!
Wow! I pretty much agree with everything you said. Except, I’m leaning toward Shannon to be sent home. Her voice is good, but not up to AI standards. If she stays I think it will be because of her personality. Adults don’t take criticism as gracefully as she did last night, so kudos to her.
Please, make an effort to get over yourself. Take a look at your post and realize that you could have condensed that into a hundred words. People just skip over posts that go on forever and say next to nothing.
If you don’t like the length of my posts then simply don’t read them. Sorry if I feel the need to give my thoughts on all of the contestants, so if you don’t like the length of anyone’s post then just don’t read it and just skip over it.
Shawn….you keep doing what you do. Its very enjoyable reading!!!!!Everyones has the right to their opinion…Tico..just skip over the ones you don’t want to read….This is a free speech site!!!!
Ah what? That was totally uncalled for, Tico. I don’t personally agree with everything Shawn said, but he has a right to sharing his opinions. This is, after all, a board for debate and discussion. In order to do that, we need to know where the other person is coming from. Keep posting your thoughts, Shawn, it’s great to read!
I serious doubt shannon would go she made it in the top 10
the wildcards got babied through
shannon did not have the lowest i dont care what anybody says
Haha let the best voice win
Jermaine best voice
Jermaine votes are from 1 group african americans
AND THANK GOODNESS FOR JOSH HE TOOK THEM AWAY
I agree with what you said about Elise. That was too bad what the mentors did to her, it frazzled her a bit and that showed in her performance. Hopefully she can get through this elimination and come back in swinging!
who was sent home?
Elimination is held tonight. We’ll know in ~10 hours.
Jeremy “JerBear” Rosado
Jeremy or Elise . One of them will be sent home .
I will go with Geremy
Jessica . I am still waiting to show america who u r .
I am with you, Ali.. Jessica is extremely gifted, I don’t doubt that, and I love her, but for now, from what I’ve heard, she is an extremely gifted immitator. I want to hear more!
She’ only 16 and she will have her own style as she evolve as a star. No one can deny that she’s is very talented and gifted. That’s the most basic and essential tool to be a great artist and singer. Give it all to her! She will make her own songs someday showing her own style and emotions. 🙂

What is wrong with the “peak” thing ???
I am a huge fan but her chances of winning is very difficult
( the voting system ) . I keep telling people ( Just wait ) . She is different
and you will all see it . JUST WAIT.
Adam peaked ( top 13 ) + He didn’t win = where is he now ?!
Sorry , I am talking about Jessica
Ali, she is only 16. I really want her to show the true artist in her, but there might not be enough of life experience to be original just yet, I think
I am a big fan of Jessica, too, but I know what you are saying, Tart.
you’re joking??!??
Shannon is the best voting for 2 hours
shannon has it you’ll all see
i meant about adam.
Oh God … I thought u meant Jessica LOL ..
Adam was one of the best in his season and perhaps in all seasons , That
for sure . We might get in an argument whether he succeded after or not . He succeded ( At least as I see it according to many contestants ) .
who are you talking about
to ali- adam is doing VERY VERY WELL!!
I know . I still didn’t get ” you are joking ??” What did u mean ??
Adam will be the front man for Queen this summer. He is already in the Top 20 VHI Videos for his new song and the CD hasn’t even come out…
I think Adam is doing just fine….Thank You……
My bottom predictions:
Boys
Jeremy or Jermaine (Sadly, Deandre is not totally in the clear yet either)
Girls
Shannon or Elise
erika and deandre dont count them out they didnt makee it in the first place i say replace shannon with erika
and jermaine with deandre
Actually, I agree with you, especially with Erika.
Woohoo! I got the bottom 4 right! It was sad to watch Jeremy go, though. That kid had heart!
Could somebody do me a favor? If you have links to Jessica singing something original, please, post it in the “reply” Thank you!
Jlo looks like a slug
hideos
Not so. She looked great!
Hey Tart dont have nothing Orignal
do you mean a song she wrote cause i cant find one
Might not be the song SHE wrote, but maybe, someone wrote for her?
There was some video called “Hater Love” or something…not that great but a ton of her fans made covers of it.
Steven Tyler sucks
Randy is a Black Mule
Jlo is a b!tch
All talent set aside, I can tell you right now who is going to win. Based on the last 5 seasons of this show I can almost guarantee that Colten will get the most votes. mark my words.
I disagree colton aint good enough
but he’s charming enough, lol
Yeah he’s got charm for sure. He’ll stay in there for a while. But he’s gotta do something sickeningly spectacular to win it, and I just don’t see it happening.
Well I have been an IDOL fan for years and it never goes how you expect it to… the teeny boopers carry the most votes and they vote for the cute guy they like or the cute girl they want to be…. so i cant weigh in my thoughts on who will win. but my favs are mostly the girls, Holliie, Skyler, Shannon and Jessica, the Boys Phillip and Heejun. only so far.
the first two Id like to see go home are Elsie and Jermaine
then Joshua, and Ericka
or Jermery in there
Sdolce your right least favs Elise jermaine
I don’t think Ryan should ask the judges who they think will go on. I think it could affect the voting. Shannon looked absolutely miserable last night.
Your are 100% right…..Ryan should keep his questions to himself. I know Shannon was not the best last night but they didn’t have to say it outright. I felt so sorry for her and probably so did a ton of other people. She just might not be in the bottom tonight.
I voted for shannon for 2 hours
Good. I’m not really a big fan of hers, but she deserved a second chance. I think she’ll grow in this competition.
Yes hopefully it backfired and everybody voted for shannon i know i did for 2 hours and i couldnt get thorugh a few times a lot of people were voting
Shannon didn’t do so great, but she definitely doesn’t deserve to be going home yet. I’ve never been 100% sure about this girl, she’s still so young and inexperienced, and that comes through in her performances. She already has the vocal skills to sing, but I almost feel like she needs to be shaken up emotionally to be able to put that fire and emotion into her delivery. She has a lot of growth potential in her, and it would be a shame to see her go so early. Having said that, if she’s put up against my boy Deandre…GOODBYE! haha
Yeah that wasn’t very fair. And the way he asked Steven who deserves to go home, and Steven flat out said, “Jeremy.” That was so coooold.
How about a surprise elimination – Jessica youre going home tonight, your idol journey ends tonight hahahaha, kiddin, I think runner-up or 3rd place is already secured for jessica, but she still has a good chance of winning.
YouTube this video if you have time, this shows the multicultural appeal Deandre has with the audience. I think this kid could truly break down stereotypes and barriers if given the chance to shine and show his talent.
“DeAndre Brackensick’s hometown gathers to watch him sing Master Blaster”
So what happened? I missed who was eliminated!
soo love jessica…hope she wins…
GOODBYE
Jeremy Rosado… i thought Shannon will be sent home as she had flat notes last night 😛
go jessica hate say bad words we proud of you
american idol belongs to Jessica Sanchez ! U go gal’ !!!!
hoping for each other’s success! but i really JESSICA SANCHEZ!
i love your voice and your personality i wish for your victory!!!!
The best is jessica for sure,
