Apparently, there was a technical problem with the voting, so there won't be a results show tonight. Instead, there will be more singing and replaying of past performances. Here is what you missed last night.
The theme for the show was "Billboard #1 Songs". Seacrest wore a red t-shirt that read "I (Heart) Expensive T-Shirts." The night was characterized by Paula slobbering on Simon at every opportunity. As my daughter said, "If they're married to different people, I think they'll be breaking up soon."
1. Anthony Federov - "I Knew You Were Waiting for Me" to finish this uninspired and pitchy performance while wearing a casual, frayed jacket. Good enough to return, because he doesn't have to outrun the bear.
2. Who wouldn't want to be "Alone" with Carrie Underwood? She worked it out big time, proving you can look good in a sash despite the 80s hair. Huge career in the offing whether she wins or not.
3. Scotty the Body Savol worked it out "Against All Odds" in a big black velvet jogging suit. I had chills long before he threw away his glasses.
4. Bo Bice - If I could save "Time in a Bottle", the first thing I'd do is throw this performance in the recycling bin. Weak, despite the fly double-crucifix shirt. He'll be back on past strengths alone.
5. Nikko Smith - was "Incomplete" without some ho's to go with the black pimp coat and hat. Pitchy in places, he brought it home but he is no Usher.
6. Vonzell Solomon got the "Best of My Love" going in the gray pantaloons and pink t-shirt. She can come to my pajama party any time. Her best performance by far.
7. Constantine Maroulis - "I think I Love You" doing a trippy David Cassidy impression, even if you did hold the mic in an obscene position (were you smoking it or offering it a bj?)
8. Nadia Turner - "Time After Time" the Duran-Duran mohawk signifies a bold and energetic performance. Cyndi Lauper would be proud, even though I prefer Tuck and Patti's version.
9. Mikalah Gordon - "Love will Lead You Back" to Las Vegas, because you're going home even if you sound like Taylor Dayne. You're out of your league, despite the Yvonne DeCarlo look and spiky heels.
10. Anwar Robinson - "Ain't Nobody" else who could pull off the bell bottoms. Weak start, weaker dancing, but a strong finish and a loyal fan base.
11. Jessica Sierra's "Total Eclipse of the Heart" eclipsed her previous bad performance, despite the hideous "I dream of Jeannie" baby doll. She'll be back next week.
Prediction: Mikalah is out. Nadia and Nikko will also be in jeopardy if they don't improve.
