TV Recap: American Idol -The Third Contestant To Go Home Is...
By Kelly West: 2008-03-26 21:48:13
Most of this season’s top 10 Idol’s were born in the 80’s, so I thought I’d be familiar with all of the songs they chose for this weeks performances, in which the Idols had to perform songs from the year they were born. Unfortunately (for me), there were a number of songs performed last night that I’m not sure I’ve ever even heard. I guess some of those songs were just tunes I wasn’t listening to as a kid. And speaking of which, how come no one’s done a Paula Abdul song? Perhaps Abdul’s pop-hits aren’t the best for showcasing amazing vocal abilities but still, you’d think someone would want to rock out to “Cold Hearted Snake.” No? Well, I wont hold my breath then.
Tonight’s live show starts out with the usual group number, followed by a recap of last night. Then, predictably Chikeze is told he’s in the bottom three. He seems unsurprised. Why no love for Chikeze, America? He certainly has the vocal abilities. Maybe he just needs to step it up in the charisma department to capture the voters attention a bit more. Following this, Brooke White is told she’s safe. Carly Smithson is up next and after explaining to the crowd that despite the rumors, she’s not pregnant, Ryan tells her she’s safe. Carly celebrates by pouncing on Brooke, who is sitting in the “safe-section.” We come back from commercials and are treated to a Ford commercial poorly disguised as a music video. David Archuleta is called to the stage and you can hear the girls going nuts for him. Ryan doesn’t even bother the stall-tactic. He tells David he’s safe. David Cook is up and after Ryan tells him that Chris Cornell said he loved David’s cover-cover of “Billy Jean,” he says that he’s safe. Syesha and Michael Johns are next. Michael is safe, Syesha is not. Back from commercials and we get some viewer-questions. Apparently there is some love for Chikeze because the first question is from a woman who wants to know if he’s single (he is). The next question is from a girl who wants to know why David Archuleta picked the song he chose. His answer (in short) is that he likes the song and the original artist and really just felt like singing it. Kimberly Locke is in the house and ready to perform on stage tonight but not before we get a video of her talking about her career and weight-loss success. When she takes the stage, she looks gorgeous. From the dress to the hair and make-up, everything is perfect and her voice is just the icing on the cake. I’m not sure that I’m in love with the song but I’m sure if it plays enough times on the radio, I’ll grow to like it. We’re still waiting for another update on which contestant will fill in the last spot in this week’s bottom three but first we get an extended promo for the Idol Gives Back special. Tickets are on sale now on American Idol’s website. Ramiele steps onto the stage and Ryan tells her she’s safe. That leaves Jason Castro and Kristy Lee Cook. It looks like Kristy’s play for America’s heart by singing “God Bless The U.S.A.” paid off because she’s safe! Jason Castro is in the bottom three. This doesn’t make any sense. Jason says over and over that he knew it all day that he’d be in the bottom three. Ryan cuts him off by telling he’s safe. Jason laughs and wanders over to the safe-section. That leaves Chikeze and Syesha. Honestly, I’m a little irritated by this as I’m not ready for either of these two to go. After commercials, Simon says Chikeze chose the wrong song. The judges don’t think America got it right in letting Syesha fall to the bottom two. Ryan cuts to the chase and tells Syesha that she’s safe. Chikeze’s going home. He gets his good-bye video and one last performance.
