Idol: Anoop Desai & Lil Rounds Leave In Double Elimination

After disco night on Idol, comes disco inferno. Because of the judges’ save of Matt Giraud last week, two singers instead of one were slated to go on Wednesday’s show.  


The one disturbing development was that Allison Iraheta instead of Matt wound up in the bottom. She’s a powerful singer, the judges love her, her performance on Tuesday arguably showed much greater natural confidence than Matt’s, so what’s the problem here?  

The hour included Paula Abdul's choreography for the opening group number, a not very danceable medley of songs by aging disco hit-makers, and a performance by former Idol runner-up David Archuleta.  He sang a slightly rocky pop song, “Touch My Hand,” then told Anoop and Allison, “It’s amazing to see where you can go after this.”

Did America make the right decision? Will you miss Anoop and Lil? Which one will be successful?

  1. Is it just me or has this season been a big snorefest compared to past seasons? I don't care for the added judge thing. They should have stuck with the three (Paula, Randy, & Simon) no offense to the new lady. And that they kept that poor blind guy on there for so long to milk the story was just wrong. He was good but he needed to go weeks before.

  2. I LOVE ADAM! But I agree with Banshee this season has been a bit of a snore at times.
