America gets it right!! The final 2!

I am right with you. I am very happy to know that these 2 are the finals. They both deserve it. This has been a good American Idol year after all. I'm not sure who i want to win I like both blake and Jordin both so much. Well whoever wins they are both still winners to me.

Although I was surprised that Melinda didn't make it into the finale of American Idol, I think it was for the best. She is a little too old for the competition, in my opinion. I think that the match up between Blake and Jordin is more evenly matched. The fact that they are both younger works in their favor, too. I really like both of them, and it's the first time I really don't care which person wins because I think they're both deserving.

My husband and I called it too. Melinda is good, just not as marketable as Blake and Jordin. Even I would see one of their concerts and I don't go to concerts anymore. Blake is such a cutie !! He is a true performer. Jordin has this "spark" (no pun intended with the name..lol) about her. I love to hear her sing. And she's only 17 !! I think she will win in the end, but both Blake and Melinda will have a great career.

Blake is a sound effects singer, not a singer. I am really shocked. Melinda is not too old to be an American Idol. Look who won once before, a gray haired older contestant. I also disagree that it is only the younger viewers voteing. My cirlce of friends and aquaintances vote for the American idol and we are in our 40's and 50's. I do not think that the American Idol is only about looks and being young. If Blake wins this then the whole idea of the American idol competition has been lost. Look at Ruben, who won a few years back. This man was obese and not really all that great looking, but, he had a voice. He could sing. He made the listener feel the words and melody. He dressed classy. Personally, I think Blake is just obnoxious but then that is just my opinion, my taste. The one good thing about all this is Melinda did not lower her values during this competition, I think that alone showed a lot of personality. She has a good voice, no, a great voice, and just as in the past years I believe we will see and hear plenty more from her even over whoever wins this year. As for my vote his year, Jordin will have it, as I hear a voice, a song, a lyric, a melody that is pleasant when she sings, and not just a bunch of noise.

i agree i am so happy and can't wait to see the finale

Good for you although I was hoping that Melinder would be one of the finalists. Why didn't you think Melinda could win? Were her songs too old fashioned? http://your-true-idol.blogspot.com/

I am so Happy for them both. Blake is a local boy here from the Seattle area, so no matter how he does next week he will make it Big. I agree with someone else who said Melinda was too old. I feel we needed 2 younger people this yr. and it will be an awesome Show next week for sure. I just cannot believe how upset Simon was though. But either way, I Love them both and it will be a hard choice for me for Voting next week.

This is going to be a fantastic finale. I wanted a Blake/Jordin finale, but didn't think it was going to happen after the judges (especially Simon) were pushing for Melinda to be in the finals. America definitely got it RIGHT this time around. I'll be happy with either Jordin or Blake as the next American Idol and will buy both of their cds.

Sure your prize is that your were right and one of the ones you like will win! I called it weeks ago it would be Blake and Chris Richardson! They were my 2 favorites from the beginning! I'm so glad that Blake is in the finale! I love him- He is different, and unique! I'm also glad that melinda got ousted! I think that many contestants will get record deals from this season- Possibly even Sanjaya- YUK!

I have to disagree. I think Miss Doolittle should have at least made it to the final two. I don't hold much faith in the American Idol process. The only winner I have seen become an "idol" is Kelly Clarkson. (yes I know the one became a country star but country isn't as widely liked) More often than not I see the second or even third place contestants do better.

I cant belive Blake is in the Final 2, he is the one who should of left last night. Melinda is wayyy better then Blake and will be a bigger star then he will EVER be. America made a mistake last night, but i guess it will all be fixed next week when Jordan wins as she is also way better then Blake. Blake should of been history from the begining, as he isnt a very good singer.

Even though I thought Melinda and Jordin is going to be in the last 2. I'm quite happy with Blake and Jordin. Jordin is my favourite from day 1 anyway so whoever else in the last two, as long as one of them is Jordin I'm really happy...So let's see who's gonna be the next american idol... have anice day..xx

I can not wait to see the finale now that Blake and Jordin are the last two standing!! I think it will make it exciting, fresh, and much more modern. American Idol hasn't been picking stars like Beyonce, Maroon Five, and Gwen Stefani...and I think this is the very first year that it will be different. I can see ALL of these past 4 contestants making it big, and especially Blake and Jordin:) I am very, very happy with the results!

Oh no, I'm living in Pakistan at the moment and we don't get the results show until TONIGHT!!! I would have bet on it being Melinda and Jordin, though I think Blake is great and brilliant at revamping old songs to make them hip and up-to-date, I just don't quite think he has the vocal talent of the girls. If these are the final two, then it must be Jordin to win???

I'm so disappointed that Melinda got voted out. Young people aren't the only ones watching and voting. I think she had lots of personality and more importantly, way more talent than the other two. Oh well, it was nice to see Elliot again.

Good call. Sowho will win? I think Jordin. Either way I'm sure all three will land recording contracts.

I am sorry I have to disagree with you. As much as I like Blake, I think he should have went home last night. I think it should have been between Melinda and Jordin. But now that it is between Blake and Jordin I will be voting for Jordin. I like Blake but he is not the best singer. Yes he does have personality but this is a singing competition. I sure hope all three of them make cd's and do good. They are all great in their own ways.
