Okay, so I read this article yesterday about a group called “vote for the worst” that targets the worst American Idol contestants and keeps them safe by having all of their members vote.

Why oh why would they do that??? The idea reared it’s ugly head last night by keeping Sanjaya safe, and losing a great singer — Brandon. I understand the concept — trying to ruin it for the producers — but it affects the contestant’s lives — their hopes and dreams and future successes.

Whoever came up with this idea to save the worst American Idol contestants — please, rethink what you’re doing and spend your time doing something productive!

Now, about last night’s results show — was it just me or did anyone else notice that LaKisha looked GREAT! Her outfit was very flattering on her — so are the stylists involved now or did she get some tips on what would look good on her? Whatever the case, it really worked for her last night!

I did think Brandon was at risk because he didn’t stand out enough, but PLEEEEASE — keeping Sanjaya over him was ridiculous.

Diana Ross’ performance was interesting. She was a bit wobbly coming out on those huge platform shoes, and I worried that we might have a wardrobe malfunction — but she’s greatly loved. I personally wished she would have done a different song that was not so repetitive and more well-known — but I’m sure it was great for the contestants to see her perform live. Also, what a great way to showcase artists who are icons but may not be known by the younger generations.

Did it escape anyone that Chris Doughtry’s song “I’m Going Home” was played during the montage of Brandon’s time on Idol? Hmm. A convenient way to market former Idol music. Great choice by the way.

Well, I did feel bad for Brandon, and you could tell that Sanjaya felt bad that he was staying and Brandon was going home. I hope this doesn’t happen again and we lose another great singer over someone who isn’t the best.
