Who Got Eliminated on Idol? - American Idol, Top 5 Results Show



















Over 60 million votes came in last night, the highest of this season.
Wow.
Ryan Seacrest, in all his formal-suit glory, dropped the iconic phrase, "You might be surprised"
Are we?
Well, if you will base your judgement from the performances yesterday, you'll already have an idea on who'll be sent packing. 

Jimmy Iovine, the hybrid reincarnation of Simon Cowell -minus the English accent- scolded Lauren Alaina for pulling back to belt out the "high" note in Unchained Melody.

Iovine predicted that Alaina will be in the bottom two (B2) this week, he was absolutely right. 
Lauren was joined by Jacob Lusk in the B2 after receiving a 6-point criticism from their mentor, Iovine who said that Lusk had a rough night and both songs that he sang, No Air and Love Hurts, were off. I agree!

So now it's between Lauren and Jacob.

The sixteen-year old Lauren Alaina, her very first time to be in the bottom 2, did not manage to control her emotions. She cried. tears flowed down on her face, it messed up her Greek-goddess make-up and everything...
The result, drum-rolls, America said Jacob Lusk is going home.

Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina Sing "Up On The Roof"
These two contestants have a "distinct" chemistry that makes their duets quite phenomenal - in the past
I just love the fact that Lauren seems at-ease whenever she performs with Scotty, how i wish she could pull off that kind of confidence in her solo performances.
With regard to their duet, i don't think they got it right this time - it fell flat on the floor.








Casey Abrams and Haley Reinhart brought flavor in tonights show with this performance. Seriously, i enjoyed every moment of it. Their husky and cranky voice when combined is pleasing to the ears.
One little comment that i have for this number is there ain't much connection between the two of them - i'm sure they'll work this "issue" out. Ha?

Watch: Casey Abrams Sings "Hi De Ho"
Watch: Haley Reinhart Sings "Beautiful"



These pricks, James Durbin and Jacob Lusk, sang this one just because they need to. LOL!
What do you expect, there will be no chemistry because first of all Durbin isn't gay. 
So the "Broke Back Mountain" connection sh*t that the AI producers are trying to pull off in this performance will not work, OKAY?

Watch: James Durbin Sings "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow"
Watch: Jacob Lusk Sings "Oh No Not My Baby"

Song: Luther Vandross, "Dance With My Father"
Steven said: "You remind me all the time the reason why I love music."
Jennifer said:"One of the tricks of being a performer, is, you have to learn the control."
Randy said: "I feel like somebody's taken a racehorse and put the restraints on."

The Mind Slut says: "Whew, nasal power! Jacob clearly banks on his drama, with regard to his singing, it's becoming a little annoying at some parts."
