American Idol 8 Top 7 (Disco) — Results — 04/22/2009

I hate AI..how could you people say is not racist..it is!!!!! you people who say it must be white that why you offends your kind. The reason why the judge is so harsh on anoop because its close to the end, and they don't want anoop to win AI because he asian duh.. they rather let screaming gay guy win. Plus matt past week was bad even the judge say so..I bet randy was disapointed that they saved matt and what can he say its always the white people make the decision..or maybe they cheat on counting the vote I bet anoop have more vote then matt or those other contestant but they twisted around so anoop could go home that so sooooooooo unfair...

Not drinking from paula's cup, btw. I'm saying that allison in the top three is still very likely. She's the only fenale left. Do not underestimate that.

Allison 2009! Ftw!

You haterz are hilarious.

Julio, finally someone who gets it! You called it almost the same as me. Danny/Allison/Kris the final Matt & Adam should be great, one who is awesome on stage the other multi-talent and of course all that hotness on stage. And your comment about Anoop so true people forget he was lucky 13 wildcard. Good luck to all of them but especially Matt, go-get-um White Chocolate!

*Note to Rickey - I been seeing all these t-shirsts, where is Matt's T-shirt?

this is to RJ, how can you say that this is a racism show come on annop was not going to be in the top 12 but he was cause they made it a top 13, america loved anoop and voted for him untill he got 6th place and no the show is not racist look in the past who has won. Matt, Adam, Kris is the top three next will be allison , then daney, then kris, matt giraud vs adam lambert in the final and it will be fun GO MATT.

Loved Dannys dancing on the group number he is really getting his groove on:) and he is a very quick learner:)

isuzan your a moron. you say matt sings like a cat. lol you must have a hearing problem. go back and look at all his vids and honestly ask yourself he cant sing. please! he sings his ass off and way better than lil and anoop and red head and kris but kris has good judgement but his vocals arent all that but he is amazing. but back to matt. he totally deserves the save and he deserves to be safe last night so dont hate. and btw his studio version are way better than anyones else.

to Suzanne and Stephen, go to Dial Idol and understand how they work before giving any comments. And Rickey only gave the bottom 2 even though Dial Idol is unsure who would go as the difference of CALL VOTES (NOT including sms) is not statitiscally significant. Oh, maybe you wanna learn your maths first about statistic before you read the result...

People need to understand that Anoop didn't earn the 13th wildcard spot. It was planned all along to make it dramatic and give him the spot! The same way they made it dramatic previously by announcing Anoop last the week before.

Anoop really was the punching bag for the judges. If this was strictly a singing contest Anoop would have won. His vocals were better than everyone every week. AI is about the overall singer and likability factor.

Anoop will definitely have a CD out and I'm sure it will be good. If anyone has heard his ITunes studio recordings they were the best.

omg! i love the group performance. that's a first in american idol.
btw, did they lipsynch? for the dance?

Waow ...
4 of my favorites are in Top 5. Group 2 rocks !
I hope Danny will be gone next week !

Allison and Matt are next!..
Top 3 Kris Danny Adam
Top 2 Danny and Adam
Winner.. I would like Gokey.. but i think it will be Adam..
Go Gokey!!!

simon said on a radio interview that one of the reasons why they saved matt is because they wouldn't have used it on anoop or lil rounds which he though where going to leave this week. and this was the last week they could have used the save anyways , they saved matt and he wasn't even in the bottom 3 tonight. so it seemed like the save worked out.

I'm not sure if I understand it...yeah, its the worst placing since Season Five for the "Black Diva," but come on - MANDISA is in a completely different league than Lil, being one of the best singers ever on the show...let alone for the "black diva." ...Still bitter about her elimination! (TOTALLY ROBBED!!)

Lil wasn't a great diva representation...she was great tonight, but of course - after the show is over. Sad. Hopefully next year the Diva role gets filled with another Mandisa, Kimberly Locke, Melinda Doolittle, Tamyra Gray, or the like...not a mediocre diva like Lil (or the personality of last year's diva for that matter...).

What a travesty; Matt should've been GONE last week; and Lil should've gone this week (as she did) - saving Anoop one more week. I honestly don't think he would've made it much farther, but he outsang Matt every freakin' time! Matt catterwauls like a cat in heat in his falsetto...he so does not deserve to be in the top 5.

Hopefully he goes next week and doesn't shove poor Allison under the bus too early.

At this point the order of exit should be: Matt, Allison, Danny, Kris and the winner ADAM!

I am happy with the results. However, I am disappointed with Tuesday performances because I was expecting disco or dance songs from Top 7 hopefuls, NOT BALLAD OR FUNERAL SONGS during the Disco week. Nonetheless, performances of Matt, Lil and Gokey are bit close to the week's theme.

no offense but are you drinking from paula's cup? kris or allison won't be in the finale , it more than likely be danny vs adam. don't get me wrong i like kris and allison and them being in the top 5 is probally farther than they probally saw them selfs going. not many ppl even knew who kris was before the top 13 so him geting this far was pretty good.

that was the best group song ever!

Loving the top 5! Matt for the top 3! Yes!
Matt has the best dance moves out of all of them!
I bet Paula was in high heaven choreographing this group!

They worked it out!

Matt you go, telling them you arranged the song. Matt's Stayin Alive! Jazz theme should be great for him!

Anoop is still my Aladdin :D

It's too bad about Anoop. I thought he was good last night and great tonight. Matt should have gone but if Anoop had stayed he almost certainly wouldn't have survived next week since he doesn't have as many fans as everyone else. But just because he and Lil left it doesn't mean the show is racist lol.

Tell me about it, Amber. I expect Chica to be tossed any week now. But there's no stopping the Gokester! America seems to love them some discount cruise ship stylings. Everybody to the Lido Deck!

@DJ Jayito

i agree with your assesment of Allison being like Nikki Mckibbin, etc.

Funny enough, all of those contestants tend to be my favorite girl. I loved Syesha last year, and Vonzell was pretty amazing too. And Nikki McKibbin is one of my favorite idol contestants ever (and her album is really good btw, i love her sound). Allison, god-forbid it, may ride the Bottom Three till the end, but she's definitely in my opinion a Top 3 spot holder. =] I love her so much.

Group 2 def. had the most talent. I bet Kris, Adam, and Allison will be out Top 3. That's be so great!

Allison 2009!! FTW!!!

top 5: Adam, Allison, Danny, Kris and MATT! Perfect!

This is just soo stupid! Every time something happens people automatically say it's becuase someone is racist! This show is sooo diverse in different races and cultures, and they were in the bottom 3 NOT BECAUSE OF THEIR RACE!! It was because they got the least amount of votes, people! Everyone was kind of bleh last night... so it was really a toss up who was going to be kicked off...

Finally Lil Rounds is out. I've been listening to her past 5 performances, its just not good. It's not a surprise she's out now but wished it happened much earlier.

Anoop deserved to outlast Matt?

Are you serious?

I so wanna cry right about now....Anooooooooop!

preppy pinup!!!

oh well, 6.5 is a decent showing. GO ANOOP!

laff, your girl allison is in danger now, yikes!

It was too soon for Anoop to go:( But it is a relief knowing he won't be the punching bag anymore. He is destined for great things and I am proud to be a trooper. I think he deserved to outlast at least Gokey and Matt.

Anoop!!! says the fangirl.

Poor Allison, she always gets too close for comfort! Now she's the only girl in a house full of dudes...but I bet she's everyone's favorite kid sister. Such a fun girl :) Top 5 though!

Go Kris! In fact, go Group 2! With Adam, Allison, Kris, and Matt rolling ahead, Gokey's the only one left from Group 1, and Group 3 has essentially been annihalated.

Does anyone have an email address for Anoop? I'd sure like to send him a note of support.

I agree about Matt. He was cute tonight, explaining how he was the one who came up with the arrangement. Nice guy. :)

They all are nice, though. I hope that they all do well because this group is very talented.

MATT GIRAUD is a CLASSY performer. He deserves to be on Top 3 spot!

Please stop with the "racism" remarks. I bet more "whites" supported Anoop than you'll know. My husband and I are "white." Anoop is my favorite!!!!!!!!!!!

What do you mean "the worst showing of the Black Diva since Season 5"? Mandisa was the Season 5 diva... and she was like a trillion times better than Lil... I am confused about what you mean.

Loved the group number. lol, finally a season where all of the contestants have enough rhythm to pull off real choreography. awesome

I am so cornfused.... with dialidol.com. Are they in cahoots with A.I. or what? They had Lil as #1. I don't know how that was. Then she gets sent home tonight. SAY WHAT??!!!

oh nooo, the show will be different without anoop :(

It should not have been Anoop - it should have been Gokey. At the VERY LEAST it should have been Gokey sitting in Allison's spot. What is going on with America's judgement this year!

*sniff* Anoop, I will miss your cool, smooth, collegiate ways. Goodbye, preppy pinup. :( You're so pretty in pink!

i'm sorry, but Adam looked ridiculous during the dance, he's so over the top!

The justice has been served!

I am so sick of hearing you haters talk about Matt. Yes he was saved last week that was the judges choice that's not Matt's fault. Another thing every year they do the wild card so stop acting like it has never been done before. You people act like you'll be spending the money for whoever wins. Anoop was in the bottom 4 times and Allison has been in the bottom 3 times but who's counting oh were only counting for Matt. We all have our favorites so vote for who you want to and stop hating on the contestants they are living their dreams not yours. Because next year you all will be bitching about the next group of contestants anyway.
Go Matt!!

Forgot to add that my little David eased the blow (re: Anoop). David is maturing and becoming a really good performer. He also spoke very well when asked his opinion about the bottom two. Lots of opportunities for them. :)

DARN! Anoop Dog!! You will be missed! :(

yeah rickey please put david's performance up (wow- he got so much better at performing live. he was bouncing around and everything lol) and the group performance (so i can see adam's moves again).

Yaaayy, I'm glad Allisan and Matt is in the TOP 5.
Rickey is the BEZT ! ^______________^

I know Anoop really deserves to be on the top spot. I just wish Danny Gokey doesn't win the contest. Adam FTW.

mesothelioma- hells no. now that anoop is gone i'm fully putting my support behind adam

rickey, please post david's performance. :)

I am in CA, so I am assuming it was Lil and Anoop that went home, because at first I thought it was Kris since you have Kris' name at the top of the page as eliminated!!
