Matt’s rollercoaster is over

Considered as the hopeful with the most rollercoaster-like journey ever in the Idol competition, Matt Giraud was finally sent home. After gracing the stage with his rendition of My Funny Valentine on yesterday’s Rat Pack themed night, the four judges were in duets for their criticisms – having Simon Cowell on his side. However, even the praise coming from Cowell didn’t save Giraud this time as America decided to finally send him home.

I've been waiting for ages for him to really stand out and knock my feet off the ground - finally!
Mad vocals, interesting song choice and excellent, classy performance.
For me, he's still the one to beat.

Idol’s double elimination drama

Since the judges saved Matt Giraud from going home last week, two hopefuls were sent home on tonight’s result show, having a record of 45 million votes.

Lil Rounds, who has been considered as one of the front-runners of this season, was axed first. For some weeks the judges have been pointing out her fading sense of artistry and individuality, but this outspoken mom never failed to answer back in her most sincere manner. Her big voice wasn’t enough to prove her worth of winning the coveted title.













One of the most surprisingly talented hopefuls on this pack was Anoop Desai, who managed to crush Sanjaya’s lackluster ability to pull off a show. However, this young man was the second one sent home tonight. His inconsistency when it comes to right song choice and performance has landed him on the bottom group for quite some time – and now he’s gone.

What a brilliant performance!
Though I still don't get why some of them tweaked the should've been up-tempo night, Kris really wowed me.
With him, I feel like watching David Cook meets Jason Mraz meets Jason Castro - originality, cool vocal ability and to-die-for charm!
Great, great, great!

Good news for Giraud

The coveted save from the four judges has been made history through Matt Giraud. It’s an Idol first since the show began 8 years ago, but this good news has a tricky twist for the coming week because 2 shall go home.

Giraud has been a constant favorite since his audition days, but has been having rough weeks for proclaiming himself as a true-blood rock star rather than what the judges think he is as an artist. Having a vocal ability that is a cross-over between R&B and Jazz, this young lad captivated millions and is surely one threat in this competition
