I'm mad. Very, very mad. Utterly disappointed.
America just voted Danny Gokey out of American Idol. And I know who to blame.
Paula Abdul, you screwed up. Or maybe you did it on purpose. You and the rest of the judges, were all like giggly school-girls rooting for Lambert, just like that Katy Perry who-the-hell was she?
Gokey is a balladeer - and that by now should have been crystal clear except for a dreamy judge deep on drugs (is it true what they say?). To ask him to sing a two-tone dance song on the most critical AI eve (while Cowell pushed and shoved for Lambert to sing U2), was to me plain sabotage. Unforgivable.
Nope, I am not much of a Gokey fan - my favorites have all lost steam. But if a choice was to be made between the three remaining contenders, I am pretty sure where to place my bets.
So now, Adam Lambert and Chris Allen will have to fight for AI glory. I hope Allen gets it, if only America stands up and prove that it knows its music. I've always believed AI is a singing contest, not a screaming competition. The moment Lambert gets the nod would be very, very sad (indulgent nonsense, remember?)...
At least for me. And I couldn't care less if others say otherwise.

I did not get to watch the elimination episode this week, but I did watch the competition show. Every time I hear Danny sing a song about love, I literally start to cry, as I can’t help but to think about his tragic loss and what he must be feeling as he sings. I hope everything works out well for him, in his career and in his life.
i really wasn't able to follow AI this season but i know that gokey sings similar to elliot yamin while lambert sings like a girl. not familiar with allen so i hope he wins.
im not following AI this year, but through blog, wow i get updates. so ill go for kris this year.
yeah it was disappointing but can't do much about it
unidimensional raw si gokey e.
si kris may commercial value- looks yes, semi sa voice.
si adam naman, niche singer.
si gokey- SINGER talaga.
korny ng finals.
ai may just be on its way out...
