I heard that he quit because he didn't want to sign a 5-year contract for if he won. I don't know if that's the truth and I'm reserving judgement for if the public ever knows but if it IS the truth, it's BS. For a sick family member or something, fine. But he knew going into this that he'd have to sign this contract so one can only think that he was confident enough to know he'd get this far, get some publicity and then bolt... which is wrong.

He would've easily made it into the top 3. What a dope.

I heard about Mario on the news yesterday. Since Mario and Nikko were my two favorites, I am both disappointed and happy. I am SOOOOOOO GLAD Nikko is back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I heard on a different site, this is just what i heard, but they said that he and anwar are gay and that Mario wanted to be openly gay and the producers wouldn't let him so he quit.

I doubt thats true because if he wanted to be openly gay, then he would have given that as the reason he quit.

He's been very mysterious about it all in his interviews. I really hope that it isn't because he wants a record deal with another label. I would be SOOOO mad if I were that last guy that didn't get to make it into the semifinals. Look how many people who are dying to be in Mario's place and he gave it away. His own mother said that she wasn't sure why so I imagine it has to be something stupid like a record deal.

So glad that Nikko got to come back into the competition, since he is from St. Louis also! :) He is the son of Ozzie Smith, a former St. Louis Cardinals shortstop that I loved watching as I grew up in Southern Illinois.

Anyway, how did everyone think everyone did tonight? My favorites were Anwar, Bo, Constantine, Nadia, Nikko and Carrie. There was a lot of pitchiness going around, but those were the top 6 in my opinion. There are a few that I could just do without.

I liked Scott, Nadia, Carrie, Anthony, Bo, Constantine and Nikko. I am really hoping Mikalah gets the boot tonight, I do NOT think she has a good voice (she sounds like the mother from "Family Guy") at all. I think it'll be either Lindsey or Jessica though.

I've lost all hope in America!!!!!

I am still in shock this morning that Jessica got kicked off last night. She was one of the best!
:( :( :mad: :mad:

Oh, I'm disappointed also Angie. I thought Jessica was good and had a great voice. She was really on her game on that last song. I knew it would be her though. I think people just have their favorites and they don't care if their fav sings good or not that night. The are still going to vote for them. That to me is the sad part.

I was shocked to see Jessica go too. She had a great voice. I think Vonzell has been the underdog that is now shining! I been voting for her the last few weeks. Although, I think at the end it is going to be Bo Vs. Carrie!

Eh, she was okay. It didn't bother me that she got booted. I thought it was going to be Anthony but he seems to have a big fanbase of teeny-bopper girls out there voting for him. He should be soon though.

Honestly, I'm getting tired of Anwar. Before the judges even commented on his (HORRIBLE) job Tuesday night, I told my husband that he sucks for 99% of the song and sings the last note really well but that doesn't make an American Idol. I almost fell off the couch when Randy AND Simon said just that moments later!

Oh, and Paul is on crack. Her reactions, her comments, everything is just weird now. She's always been a little kooky but never flat-out freaky like now! :eek:

I really didn't care for Jessica. She could sing, but she was very boring and not likable at all. I would take Mikalah over her any day! My favorites are Carrie, Nadia, Nikko, and Vonzell. I didn't like Vonzell initially, but she has been awesome lately! I REALLY loved her last week when she sang 'Best of My Love'. She really came alive and had fun. Carrie would be an awesome pop/country singer. Nikko and Nadia are really entertaining for me to watch as well. Even when Nadia did that Cindi Lauper song with the mohawk that the judged hated, I loved it.

Time for Anthony or Constantine to GO! Constantine really freaks me out. I hate how he looks at the camera, yikes!

Aly, I can't believe you said that! Mikalah :eek: . Oh gosh, I can't stand her...lol. I liked her in the beginning because I thought she was funny, but now she is down right annoying and she can't sing at all! I really like Nadia. I think she is a true performer. She just seems to have the all around package.

Anthony so needs to go. He's like listening to fingernails on a chalkboard to me. His voice is in a range I can't stand so he sounds out of tune the whole time he sings. Same with Anwar. I loved him at first but he's been bad lately. That guy Scott - the gangster wanna be - can leave too.

Carrie can sing, but I think she has major attitude and sounds too country. She belongs on Nashville Star, not American Idol.

I hope Bo wins.

Bo and Constantine!

:D:D:D:D

What has Carrie done to have an attitude? I hadn't see that side of her.
