American Idol: Hollie is Gone!

So belatedly, the slightly creepy girl who reminds me of Jodie Foster IS GONE!  And I can't believe that Skylar Laine went home before Hollie did!  Is America tired of country after the double country win of season ten? But Skylar is so much more entertaining than Lauren Alaina, though Steven Tyler probably doesn't think so.

Next week's elimination is going to be anybody's guess. I predict that all three of the finalists will do themselves proud (they never fail) and that Jessica will be the one to go. Even though this year's contest included some of the best women singers ever, I expect an all boy finale.

Last week we got a record number of votes in our elimination contest. Eleven voters thought that Hollie would go last week and so did I. Seven thought that Phillip would be eliminated. Don't you like Phillip? He's so great.  Six thought that Joshua would be gone and five thought the same about Jessica. And only five correctly picked Skylar for the elimination. The winner of the week 3 contest was ALAN MAK. Congratulations! Astute pick.

This week was week 4 of the contest, and we had fewer votes. Amazingly four voters picked Phillip for the loss, one each picked Joshua and Jessica, and four picked Hollie and so did I. This week's winner is LISA of the lucky MAK family. Congratulations! 

You can be as lucky as the Maks if you play to win. The prize for week 5 is a $15 itunes gift card. Get in your ballot by next Thursday, May 17 at 6:00 and you'll be automatically entered for the grand prize, an 8GB ipod nano! See you at the ballot box.
