Idol Chatter 3-12-08: Results Show: Down to 11
The FOX43 Idol Experts tell you Who's Who in the Bottom Three, in a very Whooey Results show. And who got the whoot ... I mean the boot!
We crank it up to Eleven (contestants) after this week's elimination. Let's see how the Chatterer's predictions held up, and what they have to say for themselves...
America voted, and DAVID HERNANDEZ... You're going home.
And here's your Illustrious Bottom Three, Chatterheads:
Artie "I Say 'Dude' and 'Dawg' To Try To Be Cool With The Kids" Funk selected Kristy Lee, David Hernandez, and Ramiele Malubay for his Bottom Three, with Kristy Lee going home. Two for three ain't too shabby. What does he have to say about Mr. Hernandez's expulsion this week?
Artie Funk
Funk: Yo, I'm agreeable to the decision the Idol fans made this week. I was surprised that Syesha was in the Bottom Three, but I can understand why she dropped in popularity. I just didn't think she'd drop that far. I thought there were others who did way worse than she did.
As for America stripping David Hernandez of his right to become a true American Idol, I'm cool with it. I thought he'd go next week, but I'm shedding no tears because he's gone already.
What did make me shed a tear, however, was this:
Seeing too much of Jim Carrey plugging his movie was pretty annoying. I kinda wanted him to be in the Bottom Three, just so he would go home. The problem with that, though, is that it would've saved Hernandez's butt, and I'm not cool with hearing him sing anymore.
Oh...and I think we all agree that Kristy Lee Cook is on notice. Hard. All of her fans' hands are scorched after lifting her butt outta the fire this week. She needs to go with the right kind of country for the song, which she absolutely did not do this week.
Julie "My Screenname is 'DavidCookFanGrrrl'" Heart chose Amanda Overmyer, Kristy Lee Cook, David Archuleta as her Bottom Three, but she also thought Kristy Lee would be hitting the bricks. One outta three!
Julie Heart
Heart: I was shocked that Syesha was in the Bottom Three! I want to know what the heck you Idol fans are thinking! I really was hoping Kristy was heading out this week, but I was so happy to see "Crazy-Eyes" Hernandez go home. I wonder if his stripper job stalled out the Bible-Belt voters... that's the sort of thing you need to think about in politics and Idol.
I also want Amanda out of this competition next week, please. Mostly because she is not good. But also because she didn't help that Beatles medley out at all. At least don't give her any more solos in the group songs! Ew!
Other things of interest that I feel like mentioning here: I guess Horton really is desperate for an audience if they're sending Jim Carrey to show up on Idol. And I thought the call-in segment was dumb and a waste of time.
Clyde "I Have An Unhealthy Dislike For Hidden Receding Hairlines" Collins chose Ramiele Malubay, David Hernandez, and Kristy Lee Cook for his Bottom Three... 2 for 3, sir...
Clyde Collins
Collins: David Hernandez leaving was a pretty easy call. He picked the wrong song for his style of singing, and, as predicted, Kristy Lee Cook's looks kept her safe for at least another week. Seeing Syesha in the Bottom 3 was a BIT of a surprise, but not MUCH. I did describe her performance as 'lousy,' after all. Justice was served, this week. And did they say they're doing ANOTHER Lennon-McCartney Week?! Idol really must love me, after all! See you next week, when David Cook will continue to experiment with hairline-hiding hats, and I'll continue to be absolutely right in everything I say!
So there you have it! The FOX43 Idol Experts' continue to have opinions that you want to hear about!

Kristy really should have been the one to go home. All of her Idol performances have been totally unremarkable while David had at least 1 really good and 2 okay songs. What was wrong with Ryan this week - he seemed a little "coked" up? Paula on the other hand seemed less intoxicated.

i cant believe robbie carrico got booted when some of them should have been booted off before he was. I thought he was a good singer. But on a better note at least Carly is still on.

I have to say, I called the Hernandez thing on the basis of his not being as adorable as Kristy.
More talented? Sure.
But that's not how Idol works, as we've seen in the past.
She's got to step it up this week, because the pool of weak talent around her is...well, pretty much more-talented than she is, truthfully.
Except for Overmyer. She can go anytime.
