The American Idol 2014 Top 8 will become the Top 7 tonight now matter what because the judges’ save was wasted spent on Sam Woolf last week. So there are a few things to consider when trying to figure out who goes home this week.
* UPDATE: Find out who went home in our full recap of the Top 7 results show here!
First of all, Sam won’t be eliminated. People ride the save wave for at least a week or two following. So chances are, Sam won’t even be in the bottom three. And since voting has been all over the place, the other thing to consider is that anything can happen. Anyone can go home tonight. There are only two people who I feel are totally safe. So let’s get to it.
Who will go home tonight on American Idol 2014?
Definitely Safe (I think)
Caleb Johnson. Since he was in the pimp spot, had the best performance and lead our poll throughout the night, I think it’s safe to say he isn’t going anywhere. And he’s been consistent all season, so I think he’s good.
Alex Preston. His performance was so solid that I think people who don’t normally vote for him voted for him. Again, anything is possible, but I don’t see him going into the bottom three this week. If he does, he’ll be safe.
Most Likely Safe (maybe)
Sam Woolf. Like I said above, I think he’ll ride that save wave for a bit. Plus his performance was pretty solid.
Jena Irene. Our poll doesn’t list her as high as I imagine she is. Especially after her fantastic performance last night. But I think she’s going to be safe.
Jessica Meuse. Our polls list Jessica much lower than Malaya, but (no offense) you guys were wrong about Malaya last week. So I’m sticking with with this placement for Jessica.
Possibly the Bottom Three
Malaya Watson. Not only was Malaya in the bottom last week, her performance last night wasn’t that great. Picking an obscure song was not a good idea. She could be in danger tonight.
Dexter Roberts. He managed to stay out of the bottom last week and I think his performance this week was great, but I have a feeling he’ll end up here this week. If not him, then who? Jessica? Jena? I guess it could be Sam again only with Sam not getting sent home. It’s getting tricky.
C.J. Harris. I think C.J. will find himself back here this week and I think it might actually be it for him. But after last week, I’m not placing any real bets on anything this season.
Possibly Going Home
C.J. Harris. It’ll either be C.J. or Malaya. I’m feeling like it’s C.J. He’s been in the bottom so often between the show and our polls that I don’t see him pulling ahead this week.
Who do you think is going home this week on American Idol 2014?
Hoping for a bottom 3 of Jena, CJ and Malaya with Malaya going home.
How could jena be in the bottom 3. There is no possible way. If she is then people are just dumb.
She was there before, she could go back a second time.
It won’t happen today.
I definitely believe she’s safe. Her performance was different, but I thought she delivered it. The piano beginning was just beautiful to top it off. Way to go!
MALAYA will Definitely Safe.. ;”)
#Teamalaya(^^,
I believe she should be safe as well, but if she gets eliminated, I think she still has a future career in music.
I agree CJ or Malaya will be the one going home tonight.
Imo, Caleb wasn’t all that last night, I have always liked him, but he didn’t win me over last night, Alex, was kind of boring, Dexter was the best last night to be fair, but I have no idea who will be in the bottom three, I think now it’s up to fans, the issue I see is whoever wins may or may not make it, and to me Dexter and Jessica are the only two that are really ready. Jmo…
honestly, it was not jena’s best, but it wasnt bad enough to land her in the bottom three. I predict CJ, Malaya, and Dexter. Dexter could be replaced with Alex if idol watchers are sheep. -.-
Yea, CJ ruined free falling for me. I like how he’s brave enough to change it up but he doesn’t have that voice to back it up.
Bye bye, Jena!
You really think so? I’m wondering if two are going home tonight.
If so its cj and sam.
Great! That is what I wanna say.
Bye bye sam.
Hahaha no.
CJ is bound to be going home, his performance was down right boring and sloppy and his so called ‘charm’ is the only good thing the judges are commenting about. Also, he is very hard to understand when he sings at times. I think the bottom three will be, (sadly) Malaya, CJ and possibly Sam. He did get saved last week and I’m rooting for him, he just always ends up in the bottom three.
well it is a singing contest and sam always seem to hit that just right. the rest will come . david cook was an awesome mentor and i think he mor recognized his talent. i wish them all well
my best guess is Malaya also…
Based on overall vocals thoughout the competition I’d like it to be Malaya or CJ, based on my opinion of the contestants overall I’d like it to be Dexter, Malaya or Sam.
I hope CJ goes home. Yeah he seems like a sweet guy but he sucks!
CJ or Malaya would be fine with me….
Yeah but malaya had a pretty good performance.
Who should be safe? Caleb for sure….A+ for Effort and Performance. I almost thought I was looking at Pavarotti on the screen.
The only person that should be going home tonight is Harry Connick. The more desperate he gets to be funny, the weirder he gets. He’s a loose cannon. Send him home right now. The thing with the young girl sitting on his shoulders was freaky, scary, unfunny and unethical. 86 him. Even his co judges seem nervous around him. He may be a good singer, but he has no social skills.
Evidently Harry likes to lift people up. Maybe he likes to show how strong he is. Remember that guy in the audition he carried like a baby? Maybe Harry’s just a showoff. The only judge who acted like a judge was JLo. The other two acted like they were going out to recess in elementary school.
I really hope that the Top 4 this year is Alex, Caleb, Jena, and Jessica. I like Malaya, but i feel she will be in the bottom 3. Sam is ok but still needs to improve. Dexter and especially CJ just need to leave, I’m not a fan of country music. Even though Dexter can sing well, it just seems repetitive every week. Alex and Jena seem like the ones with the most originality and are my favorites, so I’m hoping for that Top 2 this year.
David Cook was a great mentor. Do you notice judges never have anything bad to say about Sam’s voice? I think he has a great voice and his personality will come out. Remember he’s been through a lot in his life and he has probably trained himself not to reveal his feelings. I root for him
Who lost tonight?
Glad to see Sam continue. Got a great voice. CJ????
