Was tonight’s show a shocker? ‘American Idol’ Latest Update
After a night off for ‘Idol Gives back’, ‘American Idol’ returns - and now the results. Okay, not really now, but in about an hour we’ll to the results.
First order of business is to recap last night’s show. Idol Gives back helped to raise more than $60 million for charity as of beginning of tonight’s show (April 10). Last year the show help to raise more than $70 million for impoverished children of the world.
After a choir number featuring the top 8 and a very large choir, the show is off. Next up is a photo-montage-star-lip-snyching version of “I’m a believer.” I’m guessing this is all part of the fund raising but perhaps….unnecessary?
31 million votes came in for this week’s top 8 making it the top number of votes cast this season.
The former idol star for this week is Jordan Sparks along with Chris Brown singing “Air.” Wow, no wonder she was a winner (season six)! She was also recognized for her top selling downloads and top selling cd.
Just a random thought… wasn’t that Ford commercial hot!
Sticking around for for another week are Brooke White, David Cook, David Archeulta, Jason Castro, Kristy Lee Cook.
And, here are the contestant’s who could be going home: Michael John, Carly Smithson and Syesha Mercado.
As the bottom three sweat it out… Michael Johns is going home… wow… that was one of the most shocking votes this season!
Thoughts!
