Before I left for lunch, I had time to watch Tuesday night's IDOL performances. I found it surprising that a couple of people who are usually so good (like Crystal) weren't very good last night (despite the judges' raves for her) while someone who's generally so average or worse like Katie had a pure, beautiful performance.
In fact, I thought most everyone rose to the occasion except Andrew whom I really hated and Siobhan who I think is overrated.
When I read the results of last night's show this morning, I was expecting Michael to have forgotten the lyrics or something, but he did just fine with his choice. I think he was victim to fans assuming he'd be safe and so they voted elsewhere. (Reuben Studdard almost went home one week early on, too, but after that shock, he was never in the bottom again. I suspect Michael will not have to worry for a while about being in the bottom.)
