Contestants I can't stand:

Anthony Federov - Sure he came back from doctors saying he'll never talk again, but he sucks.

Mikalah Gordon - Just plain annoying to the 10th degree.

Bo Bice - This dude thinks his crap don't stink. Always giving that glare of superiority.

Scott Savol - Same as Bo, only not as bad.


Contestants I like:

Nadia Turner - She is hot, and can sing too. Seems genuinley down to earth.

Bo Bice - He can sing.

Vonzoll Solomon - Can sing in my book.



Likely winner:

Nadia or Bo.

I have a feeling it will be Bo cause every long haired hippie kid that hates r&b and hip-hop will vote for him.

Of course I see the runner-up getting a deal too, ala Ruben and gay ass Clay.

Different show tonight - Donnie Osmond in the audience, Nadia with a mohawk, Constapreen singing the Partridge Family badly, Anwar doing Chaka Khan, and Jessica belting out Bonnie Tyler (quite well, IMHO).

Heard on radio this morning that they totally botched the call in numbers scrambled numbers and contestants so that people were voting for one person but the vote went to someone else, and they're probably going to void the voting results. They haven't decided what to do, they can't ask people to vote again, remember people pay to vote, so they may just NOT eliminate anybody this week.

Would seem if all they did was transpose numbers they can merely figure out which numbers were transposed and correct it?

Yup - wrong numbers for the last three (Mikaleah, Anwar and Jessica) - the bottom (all numbers) was wrong - showed the numbers for the first three contestants.

New show tonight, results Thursday.

IMPORTANT PROGRAM NOTE CHANGE
Due to an error with the graphics shown on-screen (incorrect voting numbers were displayed) during the performance recap at the end of last night’s AMERICAN IDOL, a live, one-hour show will air tonight, Wednesday, March 23 9/8c on FOX, to enable a re-vote. This new show will combine new live elements with encores of Tuesday’s performances from the remaining 11 contestants.

Phone lines will open at the conclusion of tonight's show and will remain open for two hours to give viewers the chance to vote for their favorite contestants and keep them in the competition. Only the voting results from tonight’s show will determine who received the lowest number of votes and will be sent home this week. Tune in to see who America has chosen to stay and who is sent home on the live results show tomorrow, Thursday, March 24 9/8c live on FOX.

RECAP
NEW LIVE SHOW & ENCORE PERFORMANCES THEN RE-VOTE - TONIGHT 9/8c
LIVE RESULTS SHOW - TOMORROW 9/8c

The test messaging costs money depending on your service plan - but the call in is free..unless someone is using a payphone or cell (depending on rate plan).

My family has been continously voting from the house for the Savol dude and the bob marley lookalike...they are gonna be pissed to have to do a revote.

Interesting, I didn't even know you COULD text from anything but a cellphone, shows how out of it I am.

I was in the Philippines 3 years ago and texting there is HUGE, it's cheaper than a regular call and everyone there has a cellphone because landlines are not "ubiquitous" in many parts of the Philippines. We'd never seen texting before and people around us were constantly tapping away at their phones. My girlfriend's cousin finally explained to us they were texting in Cebuano (their dialect).

I'm just as clueless about it.

Couple of weeks ago i had to pick up my boys and was stupidfied on how many teenagers have cell phones and those text gadgets.

To vote via text - you have to have a cell phone with text options. You pay per your plan.

To vote via just a phone call - you call the number and it's a toll free number.

OMG, I hope CQ doesn't read this. She should be called the "queen of text messaging on your phone". She's a wiz at that! I'm still trying to find an "O" on the thing & she's already typed me 2 more messages! :confused:

GAWD, I had to listen to Mikhayla HACK the crap outta that song 2 nights in a row. Then she wore a t-shirt that said, "My job is to annoy you!" Well, she wins that contest FO SHO! She's a dingbat & I can't stand her voice (speaking and/or singing). Ugh!


I THINK I DON'T LOVE CONSTANTINE!

They should go...in that order!

Is that code for something??


And maybe if MM wasn't trying to text CQ while trying to find her "O", she'd have better luck ;)
