The American Idol 2013 Top 9 took on songs from the John Lennon and Paul McCartney songbook Wednesday night and it was a surprisingly sleepy night. There were only a few standouts and one dud. The others played it very safe and somewhat boring.
And even though there were clear winners and losers from the night, we all know that American Idol voters don’t always sway that way. They go with who they love and usually who they love can do no wrong. So I think it should be pretty easy to predict the outcome Thursday night. Or at least get a pretty-close prediction going. Oh, and please keep in mind that these thoughts are NOT my opinion, but how I think America will vote.
American Idol Results Predictions
100 Percent Safe: Angie Miller, Candice Glover, Kree Harrison
Most Likely Safe: Lazaro Arbos, Janelle Arthur, Burnell Taylor, Amber Holcomb
Possibly The Bottom Two: Paul Jolley and Devin Velez
Probably Going Home: Devin Velez
Will the judges use their save on Devin: NO
Scenario 2
100 Percent Safe: Angie Miller, Candice Glover, Kree Harrison
Most Likely Safe: Lazaro Arbos, Janelle Arthur, Burnell Taylor, Paul Jolley
Possibly The Bottom Two: Amber Holcomb and Devin Velez
Probably Going Home: Devin Velez
Thoughts: I think the first scenario is more likely. I do think it’s possible for Amber to be in the bottom two. If she’s not in the bottom two, then she’s probably in the bottom four. Randy said something about her not going anywhere. Which is just more of production trying to guide this thing toward the girls. They want all the guys gone ASAP. So while the judges are pushing for Amber to be popular, she just isn’t. She even has the lowest amount of Twitter followers of the Top 9.
I do hope I’m wrong about Devin because I thought he was the best guy performer tonight. If I had my way, he’d switch places with Lazaro after his horrible showing Wednesday night. But I have a feeling Devin is the one in danger.
What do you think of these predictions? Who do you think will be going home on American Idol 2013 Thursday night?
