American Idol Week 8 - Wrap Up

Wow what an exciting night at American Idol this week's wrap up was.

First there were the performers, well only one worth mentioning here and that was Jamie Foxx. Ok there were also performances from former Idol Taylor Hicks as well as a guest appearance by Natalie Cole but they were inconsequential to the big story of the night.

First up was Matt, as expected he was sent to the right side of the stage. Then Danny and Alison were sent to the left and Kris to the right leaving Adam in the middle to pick a side. Naturally Adam, the fist Idol contestant I have ever seen actually choose, chose to stand with Danny and Alison. Ryan quickly corrected this and moved him to the right with Kris and Matt shocking everyone by announcing that Adam was in the bottom three. Now I'm not a believer that Adam should win Idol but I have long suspected that the bottom three is rigged for ratings and that the only person legitimately in the bottom three is the contestant going home. Now if this is the case putting Adam in the bottom three could stimulate crazed fan voting next week and potentially altering the outcome of the competition. It will be interesting to say the least to watch what happens next.

So the bottom three as picked by me were Matt, Danny and Alison but in reality the final three was Matt, Kris and Adam, you could almost hear the shrieks of horror from teenage girls all over the world when Adam was in the bottom three.

In the end it was Matt "the saved" Giraud who was sent home, pretty much making the save a useless venture, even though Kara said it was the best thing they did.

So next week it's time to rock it with Rock and Roll and guest mentor is none other than ex-GNR guitar god Slash.

Stay tuned it should be interesting.
