American Idol: Ace's pretty face gets slapped

i like ace and chris! they rock out hard!

I am so confused. It seems everyone knows that kevin should go but what about Bucky? He sounds like a kareoke star in his home town bar that smokes way to many cigarettes. You can see when he gets out of breath when he sings he turns bright red. It makes me uncomfortable to watch him. bye bye bucky! bye bye Kevin! and bye bye Paris. I am sorry I know she can sing AND SHE KNOWS SHE CAN SING AND SING ANDSING! How annoying is she. bye bye. Here is my top five for anyone who is still reading.
*************
1.Taylor
2.Katherine
3.Mandesa
4.Elliot
5.Chris

Its hard to say but maybe Mandesa and Elliot are tied for 3rd. I love katherine she is so wonderful. But I think that taylor hicks is a legend in the making.
!!!

I agree! Kevin has absolutly no business still there. At first it was kinda cute but he needs to go. When people with even a shred of talent are going and he is still there and getting cockier by the day, it's just sad. I honestly think he truly believes he is becoming a sex symbol.

Ace ain't all that and might rate 1/4 bag of chips... He was in the bottom 3 because although he has some talent, he just isn't in the same league as Taylor Hicks, Chris Daughtry, Mandisa and Katherine. Although talented, Paris and Lisa will both be gone by the 7th and 8th week. The Pickler can sing but you wanna talk about dingy... I like her singing but the country bumpkin and dumb blonde act is beginning to make me ill and as for Kevin... I think he's adorable and I think he can sing but I don't think he is in the same league as my first 4 picks. Doggin him is just plain wrong... He's a 16 year old kid who is going out there every week and singing his heart out and personally, I enjoy his singing. Ace could have left last week as far as I'm concerned. Eye candy? Not to me and boy, that's a heck of a good reason to vote for someone in a singing competition LOL Just my opinion of course :-))

So glad to hear everyone else ask what I've been asking myself: Why is Kevin still there? He shouldn't have been in the top 12. He shouldn't be there at all. He is NOT entertaining, he is NOT American Idol material, and he really is NOT so cute. Reality check: Kevin must go.

Alberto's comments are right on. Only Taylor and Katharine have got the real goods.

FWIW, here are my Top 11 in order:

11. Bucky Covington
10. Kevin Covais
9. Lisa Tucker
8. Kellie Pickler
7. Ace Young
6. Paris Bennett
5. Elliott Yamin
4. Mandisa
3. Chris Daughtry
2. Catharine McPhee
1. Taylor Hicks

I group them into four groups as well.

In the "WHY are they even there?" category:
Bucky, Kevin

In the "Fine if its a boy/girl band" category:
Kellie, Lisa, Ace

In the "Close, but not quite" category:
Paris, Elliott

In the "League of their own" category:
Mandisa, Chris, Catharine, Taylor

Ultimately, I think Mandisa and Chris will fall out much, much later as the genres change and become more challenging to show a range of capabilities and styles.

Catharine and Taylor seem to be able to adapt to any style, and I think (and I hate to say this) that Catharine has a little undertone of diva-ness that is going to show itself more and more as the competition progresses and people won't like it (Paris is already showing diva-ness signs with her talk/singing and no one liked it).

We'll see, but that's my call.

No, Ace does not yet belong in the bottome three. There are a handful that should be there ahead of him.

Yes, the voting system is ridiculous and if keeping Kevin and Kellie in there just to prove this fact to the idiot producers will wake them up, then so be it. And, believe me, I am not one of those 'jerks' who vote that way.

Also, there is no doubt in my mind that whatever keyboard Stevie Wonder wants to play is what Stevie gets. Come on Lacy, you've gotta come up with better disses about the show than that.

Maria, I couldn't agree with you more! I've often thought the exact same thing. And then to add insult to injury when they run long they end up cutting them off anyway! ??? They're choking back tears or are pissed about being eliminated - or both. So what is the point? Why not have the person who received the *highest* number of votes sing? Oh, wait a minute. That might not work either if it's someone who should have been gone two or three shows ago! (Cough! Kevin. Cough!)

I am thrilled to see that several of you also dislike Paris !! UGH, she seriously acts like she has won it, when Chris, Taylor, Mandisa, Katherine and even Ace and Kellie are of superior talent.

I am hoping for a Katherine vs Chris finale
