American Idol: Week 5 Votes

[Teresa]

Hey gals, time to vote for Round 5! Again this week we're voting off just one person and the guys/gals are mixed, so make sure you only list your bottom 3 COMBINED. Rules have been updated to reflect this. I'll post the current point standings in the results thread after Wednesday's show. Have fun and good luck!!

Here are the rules:

1) After each show, come to the AI thread here and post who you'll think will be in the bottom 3 AND the person(s) you predict will be voted off.

2) All votes MUST BE CAST no later than 30 minutes before the results show STARTS on the EAST COAST (usually 8pm EST, so the votes will be due by 7:30 EST). I will document the votes cast at that time. Any changes made after that time WILL NOT COUNT (I want to be able to actually *watch* the show myself)

3) Points will be given as follows (or modified as fairly as possible depending on how they present the results):
a) One point for identifying someone in the bottom 3, see b) if the person in your bottom 3 is eliminated
b) Three points for correctly identifying the person(s) voted off.
c) Five points will be given at the very end for correctly identifying the winner.

4) PLEASE don't try to "cheat" by editing your posts after 7:30 EST the night of the results. I am going to do the best I can to get everyone's vote properly recorded prior to the show. Up until then, change away if you need to.

Post like this:

Bottom 3- Person A, Person B, Person C (in alphabetical order by first name)
Bye Bye- Person A

can I please ask you all to STOP voting for my dear sweet Jason Castro to be in the bottom three? You're hurting my feelings...

ROLL A JOINT

[kscwgirl]

Aww Jenny. LOL We still love you though.

[my4boys]

I'm, sorry Jenny. I would never intentionally hurt your feelings I really do like him a lot, I just don't think he was quite up to par last nite. I think he will be around for a while though.

[Nettio]

Well, that was...weird. LOL I'd like to know who's bright idea it was to do the same music two weeks in a row. Ugh, I think Simon had it right when he said it was just strange!

Bottom: Chekezie, Kristy Lee, Ramielle

Bye-Bye: Kristy Lee

[Paula]

I am in the same boat with Teresa. Last week, I almost changed my bye bye to David H. but I didn't and look what happened. LOL

So, I am so tempted to take Syesha out of my B3 and put Jason Castro in. He BUGS me to no end with those stupid facial expressions he makes when he sings and I SO want to take some hedge-clippers and cut those idiotic dreadlocks off! Yuck!

Oops, sorry! Didn't see this before I posted my rant. I still love ya though. =)

[Paula]

One reason I put Syesha in my B3 is that she doesn't seem to have that huge a fanbase whereas Jason Castro does. It's not just about the singing on this show as Simon has eluded to before.

[my4boys]

My gut is telling me to add Jason to my bottom three but now I am not so sure with all the Chekezie picks now too. I thought he was pretty good but I don't really know the song he sang at all so I cannot judge. I DO however know the song that Jason sang and I though he did a pretty bad job !!!!! I agree with Paula though about the fan base thing too so I think after all this typing I am gonna stick with what I have and hope that Kristy gets the boot and I am right about the others. I still have time to change my mind though

[meganmecrazy]

I adore Jason Castro too! LOL!! This week is tough, it was a pretty sucky week for all but I'm gonna take a stab at this:

Bottom 3: Amanda Overmyer, Chekezie, Kristy Lee Cook
Bye-Bye: Kristy Lee Cook

[BrattyMeg]

Can't resist...what Jason Castro is going to look like in 20-30 years

[~ashleigh]

wow, that was a hard show to watch.

Bottom: Kristy Lee, Michael , Ramielle

Bye-Bye: Kristy Lee

[~ashleigh]

lol, Meghan! That is funny!

[kscwgirl]

bwahahahahahaaaaa.... Jenny is going to kick your ass...... LOL

Well, perhaps you SHOULD be scared! lol

just kidding. I adore Jason and nothing you big ol' meanies can say will make me stop! But... with that being said, my heart truly belongs to the most-adorable David Archuletta. From his very first audition I thought he was just too precious for words. So, if I gotta choose between the two, I'd have to pick David. But Jason is pretty fab too. He just seems like such a sweet guy and I dig his laid-back folk-ish vibe. He'd do great on Matt Costa's record label.

DEPAKOTE SETTLEMENTS

[Kat Stokes]

Hmmm, decisions, decisions... This week was hard. I thought the guys did a pretty good job whereas only a few girls did. So, here are my picks.

Bottom 3: Amanda, Chikeze, Kristy
Bye Bye: Kristy Lee Cook

And Meg, those pics are just too scary! Wow he really looks a LOT like JT.

[jorgies5]

Bottom 3: Amanda, Kristy, Ramielle
Bye-Bye - Kristy (she better go this week!)

I agree that Jason Castro has too big of a fan base to be in the bottom three. Wow! I can't believe those pictures. He really does look like John Travolta.

LOL-see one woman's YUCK is another's SWOON! I have always had a weird fascination with dreadlocked boys (also baldies, but that is a WHOLE other thread)!!

[scrapmonkey]

I wish I could have had a bottom 5 - it was hard to choose this week - too many poor performances. And unfortunately I missed the first half hour of the show...

Bottom 3 - Amanda Overmyer, Chikezie Eze, Ramiele Malubay
Bye Bye - Amanda Overmyer

[Teresa]

You gals are right about the fan base with Jason....I'm sorry, but I just can't get into his vibe. I don't think I'd ever purchase an album from him! Might have to rethink my vote...I'm still torn! LOL I'll make the change at least 30 minutes before the start the show if I do.....*hint hint*....get those votes in early! LOL

[tmcquaid]

Bottom three: Chekezie, Kristy Lee, Ramiele

P.S. I *heart* Jason Castro.

[newfiemountiewife]

Meg, I'm cracking up ROFL!

The last two weeks were the first that I watched, I didn't follow them through the auditions. I am just not a Beatles fan, but usually I can see past that kind of thing to see the actual talent, but this week was a bit.....odd.

[Paula]

Teresa, you'll see my post was edited - I just wanted to let you know that I saw that I spelled Ramiele's name wrong. I didn't change any of my people, only the spelling on the names! ROFL I am OCD about spelling errors. LOL

LOL- No worries, there are a million spelling mistakes on these names. At least it's not hard to figure out who someone's talking about, though!

[BrattyMeg]

Wowsers...CARLY in the bottom 3 who saw that coming?

highlight to see...lol

[BrattyMeg]

haha we suck!!

Congrats Leslie only one to get it right this week lmbo

[mommy2twins]

Totally did not see Carly being in the bottom 3 this week! Can't believe Kristy hangs on......AGAIN!!!

Did anyone catch if they said what the "theme/artist" will be next week?
