I didn't think Ju'not got picked as a wildcard...did he? Anyhoo, I didn't like any of the wildcards they picked. Isis, I have to agree with you...why why why?? I mean, she can sing okay, but I hate all the drama she brings with her. I wanted Matt to go through also...

Lil was definately the best of the group. I didn't know the song, but it was very good. It was the strongest group of the three, and even the worst performance (Kendall - her singing was sharp) was better than some from groups one and two.
I'm conflicted about Blindy getting through, he's a good singer but his disability is going to get him through further than he might otherwise have gone.
I was disappointed that Ju'not wasn't in the top 3, and then again when he wasn't chosen as a wild card. He's one of the best singers and interpreters of the entire 36.
I'm thrilled that Tatiana is a wildcard - oh the drama!!!! The only way I could be happier is if Norman/Nick had been chosen, and since the corpse of Simon Cowell wasn't on the judging panel, I knew that wasn't gonna happen (coz it would only happen over Simon's dead body)
So how is it going to work tomorrow night? Are they going to perform, or is it going to take an hour for the judges to just tell us which 3 of the 8 are going through?

I like Jorge. He seems very humble- and I like that about people. It is one thing to be confident, but it is another thing to be so far removed from everything to where you don't care if anyone else even does well, and all you care about is if you win or not.
I personally would be rooting for the best person to win, wether they were better than me or not....that's what is fair...and your life isn't over...to get that far and be on stage in front of that many people is more than what most professional singers will ever do.
I was thinking about Lil Rounds singing Mary J. Blige's song- you know that Mary J. Blige has heard it by now...she probably was watching...so how much more could you ever ask for.
I can't stand Tatiana thanking everyone and bawling...people were laughing at her...but it really isn't funny that she's that big of a mess. That's what's really messed up, she has major issues going on, and people just want to exploit that.

They announced the three winners from the previous night: Scott, Lil & Jorge. Giving us 9 finalists so far The previous three I just mentioned along with the 6 from the previous 2 weeks.
Then the judges announced 8 of the people eliminated over the past three weeks to come back again tonight and I'm assuming to perform one more time. From there the judges will pick three of those eight to join the 9 people voted in so far to give us the final 12. The 8 people the judges chose to come back tonight are: Jasmine, Megan, Jesse, Tatiana, Matt G, Von, Anoop and Ricky.

Jasmine--Cute 17 year old african-american girl Megan--arm sleeve tattoo, very jazzy sounding Jesse--sang Bette Davis Eyes, sister of Jonny Lang Tatiana--you know her Matt G--sang Coldplay, Dueling Pianist Von--sang first on Tuesday Anoop--Dorky looking guy Ricky--from the first group of 12 two weeks ago
I'm hoping any combination of Jasmine, Megan, Jesse, Matt G or Anoop makes it. I feel Megan and Anoop stand the best chance.

They did exactly what I thought they would do.
But, I don't understand why they even brought Tatiana back, she only ever sang 1 song.
When Megan won a spot and Tatiana didn't...all the focus went to Tatiana having a bawling fit...that's not right...that took away from Megan being happy.
Tatiana has serious Mental Health issues going on, and when they are looking at a person's entire "package" of who they are, and that people do idolize those people, then it's wrong to put someone in that kind of role- who obviously is unstable.
By next week, she'll probably have her own reality show.

Megan reminds me of Reese Witherspoon, allthough I think Megan is actually prettier. I like her voice...she is very different.

Top 13--who knew? Anyway, as I've said before, I generally prefer male singers so those are the ones I'll be pulling for, even though I do like Lil'Rounds. Megan--meh, she was just okay. Jasmine was okay too. Wonder what their first week's theme will be? Hopefully not two weeks' worth of Beatles' songs again.

I thought there was six really good performances tonight
I really liked how Jesse sang the classic funk Rufus w/Chaka Kahn song. I've always liked that song and thought she performed it really well. Too bad she isn't moving on.
Matt G--wasn't too crazy about the song he chose to sing but man can he bring the blues. Happy with his moving on.
Megan really hate that song she sang but it's in her comfort zone and I thought she did it well. No complaints with her advancement.
Von--sang a really good Elton John song really bad.
Jasmine--Once again not a fan of the song she chose but she showed she can bring it pretty well. I've liked her since her first audition.
Ricky I thought did a really good job on a classic Stevie Wonder song. If they would have made it a final 14 instead of 13 the final spot would have been between him or Jesse.
Anoop--Glad he has another chance and liked the fakeout they gave him when they surprised him with it being a final 13

Once again you're trying to be an armchair psychiatrist. It's OK for us to call her a serious drama queen but the only one that posts here that is qualified to say she has mental issues is NOMS, and then he can only do that after some serious consultation with her and not just from watching her on TV.

i don't like jasmine. she has serious pitch problems when she sings. i'm surprised they keep giving her chances.
megan is "current" like simon said, and very pretty, she has a different voice, but needs to prove she belongs in the top 12. hopefully she does better than what we've seen.
i cannot believe anoop sang the same song again. but it worked, i guess.. glad he made it.
im glad that matt made it through - he did a good job.

Nobody has to have a stinkin degree in psychology to know when someone is completely self absorb and a big giant bawl baby, that is a sore loser, and someone who has no care about anyone else.
I have done counseling work before...I have no clue why you think that it takes a Master's Degree to give an opinion about a person.

there's a difference between calling somebody self absorbed and a bawl baby then saying they have mental issues.

Ding dong Tatiana is gone!!!! FINALLY!!! I couldn't stand her. Drama queen, self absorbed, fake, spoiled. I was going to boycott the show if they kept her...
Now, on with the show!

Don't you think being self absorbed is a mental issue? Mental issues aren't just schizos and people bouncing off the walls....being so wrapped up in yourself to the point that you are in your own world, and have no feelings about anything else that is going on around you- that is a problem.

It's such a shame Tatiana has such a brilliant voice. I don't know why she sang the same song though, I'd like to have heard her sing something up tempo, maybe a Gloria Estefan song.
I think it's best for her though that she didn't get through, the strain of the competition would have gotten much for her and I wouldn't have been suprised if she'd ended up having a breakdown.

i agree with you stitch cause i don't think she would have made it thru that fardid you notice after she didn't make it thru she ran up to the judges and just lost it then? then she was gone you didn't see her after that she must have ran off stage and totally lost it and your right she sang the same song 3 times that was not good it was like that was the only song she knew and could sing?

I wonder what Anoop was thinking backstage when the judges were criticizing Tatiana for singing a repeat song when he was going to be singing a repeat song himself?
