Goodbye, Lisa.
But the bottom three...I'm sure the blogosphere and message boards are buzzing in unison with a big WTF? Sure, Ace needed to be in the bottom three. What a complete tool showing that scar and that crap look he tries to give at the end of each performance, but the third bottom should've rightly been Bucky. I like Bucky, I really do, but he's not becoming an American Idol. He'd be cool as hell to hang out with, but he's just not making it big. But, Katherine McPhee?? She's in my top three! I got the McPheeva! I'm having me some Katherine and she is not bottom three worthy. Something mighty weird is going on...mighty, mighty weird.
Here's my top three in no particular order. This is long overdue. I'm jumping on no bandwagon here, I've liked these three from the start (even though I swore I wouldn't watch past the auditions):
Taylor Hicks
Who doesn't like Taylor? He's the good and happy kind of unique. I totally dig.
Mandisa
We don't have to know her last name. It'll be like Cher and Beyonce...one name: Mandisa, and she's every woman.
Katherine McPhee
Smitten.
