I have been watching AI since the beginning and have always looked forward to it each week. But now I don't even feel like watching it anymore. Good singers are going home while Sanjaya continues to stay. But why? Some say because little girls think he is cute... but that is crazy! I wouldn't have thought he was cute no matter how young I was! Anybody here voting for Sanjaya?? Is so, please let me know why?? lol

I believe Sanjaya is still in AI because people or th e producer want to make the show much interesting and people more hook-up on the show. Sad to say good singers is being voted out because of this. Chris Richarson should be in the bottom three this week. He is much better than Sanjaya by a miles, miles away. Give a break. Please kick Sanjaya out.

He is not here because of the teeny boppers, but because of Votefortheworst.com and Howard Stearn. People are voting for him because they want to throw off the voting system. They aren't voting for the best, but for the worst and we all know that Sanjaya is the worst. He will be in the top 4. Phil will go next, then either Chris or Blake, then the other of them, then Sanjaya. Then it will be down to the top three females, Melinda, Jordin and Lakisha. I am watching knowing that he is not going home and it is actually making the show a lot better. If I keep expecting him to leave then I get upset when he doesn't. I am glad that they finally got rid of Haley though. She was right up there with Sanjaya as the worst. You just have to keep telling yourself that you know he's not going to be cut this week, but he's also not going to make it into the top 3, so enjoy the show and don't get too upset, because he will be going home, eventually.

I totally agree with you. I also don't even feel like watching it anymore. I feel the integrity of the show is gone with Sanjaya still on the show. Better singers are getting kicked off and he stays. He is not a very good or very strong singer. I still think it is because of the Howard Stern Vote for the Worst. He hates American Idol and is trying to wreck the show. And it seems like he is getting his wish. I am not sure if I will watch the rest of the series. They sure need to fix the voting process so this doesn't happen again.

I haven't a clue why he's still on. He's probabbly got all his high school voting a zillion times. I am really getting fed up with this year's idol and I am a loyal fan. If Melinda and Lakesha don't make it to the top 2 then it's more of a farce than it is already.
