Ruben just has to be the winner.

Best slam on Clay? Jay Leno called him "Clay D. Lang" on last night's Tonight Show.

Wow, that hurts! Freaking hilarious though!

Honestly, who knows who will win...the final voting for all 3 last week was separated by 4%!

This could be very close tonight.

Clay-boy.

Clay D. Lang is hilarious, though

Didn't Ruben win the immunity idol last time?

 

[Mike Olbinski]

Ruben wins...1300 votes separated the two out of 23 million total...I think that's closer than Bush v Gore

Doesn't matter, both will get contracts and be stars. Fun final show, loved the clip of Paula and Simon in Simon's nightmare...pretty funny.

Did you hear what Simon said? They will be releasing both Clay's and Ruben's album on the same day. I thought that was pretty cool. More competition.

Yeah, for a second, I thought he slipped, and they were going to make them both win since only 1300 votes separated the two.

Fox: AI's Ryan Seacrest was given faulty numbers
Associated Press

LOS ANGELES - Turns out "American Idol" host Ryan Seacrest can read.

On the Fox talent-search show's finale Wednesday, Seacrest twice announced incorrect numbers in describing how close the final vote was between winner Ruben Studdard and runner-up Clay Aiken.

"It wasn't his fault," Fox spokesman Scott Grogin said Friday. The first incorrect figure - 13,000 - was displayed on the TelePrompTer; the second - 1,300 - was written on a card given Seacrest.

The actual spread between the two contestants, out of nearly 24 million votes counted, was about 130,000, according to the network.

Grogin did not detail how Seacrest was given wrong information or by whom.

Hmmm...I left the date off...dated Fri May 23rd by the AP. And it was 2 days ago that you posted 1300.

Yeah, Whitey...it seems that Mikey's been reading the USA Today ever since they started carrying it at McDonald's.

 

[FischerKing]

I wonder what section of the USAToday that was found in? The Red, Green, Blue or Yellow?

It's "News-by-Color" paper...

It was likely in the Purple section.
