Hello lotters I can't believe I didn't see this on American Idol site but i had check it, this video didn't have commercials in it. I guess we shouldn't assume too much of what was happening on the stage, if they didn't cut the scene we would have seen this. I know that Hollie and Jessica are also friends, what shocked me is that Colton gave her a huge hug http://www.jeffalagar.com/2012/04/jessica-sanchez-unseen-saved-moment-on-american-idol/

I was so sad when she got voted out and was teary eyed while watching her supposed-to-be-last presentation for American Idol. I saw the judges reaction when she was part of the bottom 3. Jessica is one of the best contender in American Idol, people have to learn to vote for the best and not just for the looks. Then the moment came when the judges went up the stage, took her mic and asked her to sit down. All my sadness was replaced with happiness when all 3 of them said how good Jessica is and that they are saving her for getting voted out. It's good to know that the judges got Jessica's back. But they only got one save :(. What if she'll get voted out next week? :(.. But it's all good. I'm sure she'll get so many projects even if she won't make it. She has a great voice that reaches your soul. And regarding the hug that Colton gave her, I think it's just a friendly hug. A hug that says he's happy for her and that he respects her as a singer and a friend. :)

Hello CHrisica, I think she was trying to control herself from being a bit emotional. but what the judges did shouldn't have been more dramatical, they should have kept it simple really. the judges were exaggerating about saving her. yeah, that's what i think, it was a friendly and happpy that she got saved hug.

Yea, I'm amazed she didn't even cry or even showed us that she was down when she got voted out. Also, I think the reason why the judges did that is because they know that she's a great singer and she's not supposed to be the one who's going to leave. The crowd even booed when she got voted out so I think that's also the other reason why the judges reacted like that. :)

I think voting is only available in the States. It would be a totally different show otherwise; it won't be American Idol but World Idol if everyone around the world can vote...

Thank you for sharing the link. Didn't see this too. It made me cry when the judges stood up and let her seat. She deserved to stay longer or will be a winner. she is truly talented, a God given talent. Hope she will win.

Hello speedytypist, I actually watch the whole and she also cried when she's being interviewed by a producer or something. she didn't cried that much though. even if she doesn't win, she would always be an idol for me. very mature, and knows how to handle criticism a lot. right now, i know she's doing her best.

He knows that she is at the bottom because of his fan base army of tween girls, the hug is a way of saying sorry...Joke. I think the hug is a sign of respect. I mean they were competition but they all live in the same house. everyone is in a healthy competition or rivalry, Its only the fans that clashes. I think all of them are friends, they dont show much what is happening in the mansion, so we dont who really gets along.

Hello CaptainAlbert, Yeah This is something that American Idol should be shown to the Public so that fans of either side won't be fighting each other. They should what's happening in the mansion so that the fans will show respect to each other, that ain't fair fans hating each other.

dream academy tried that format, The US version of dream academy is such a huge flop,it last only 3 episodes..... dream academy succeeded in our country though. I think American idol should at least make an internet exclusive show that shows what happens in the house.

she is saved! but i don't think she would be out of American Idol that early. maybe, this is just a way of AI, giving some spice to the season. like she was bottom 3, voted-out, saved by the judges, and won the American Idol! isn't i a good story?

Hello LordJames, I don't know but if this is an imitation just like the VOICE, it ain't gonna work out. i bet she's going to be really eliminated next week with out the save, it's definitely gonna back fire on Jessica and the Judges. the results will be a lot more negative and disasterous for Jessica rather than success.

dear LK, I am sure the hug is to say sorry and respect. I am sure Colton knows that Jessica is a big threat if only viewers vote fairly. Well, let's hope for the best, we still don't know. Wish Jessica is not another Charice case.

Hello Jaiho-sis, Well, Colton has Filipino fans too so i think Jessica is really not much of a threat. Unlike Charice case, Hollywood knows what a talent is and no doubt they will pick Jessica for a record deal.besides, Jessica should try to be more charismatic and learn how to amuse the STAGE viewers

The Save was a much deserved one for Jessica. It was like the judges waited for that moment to use it on her since according to Nigel, they would no longer be able to use the Save once AI gets to its top 5 contestants. So now was the time. But I don't think Jessica has to prove anything anymore to America. She has proven to the whole wide world, not just America, that she is a great performer with a distinct swag and a brilliant tone of voice. I mean, what more can you get from this small girl with a big voice? I guess it's all up to her fans now to vote for her like crazy and send her to the finale.

Hello Awesomekid, I guess you're right they had to use the save, but I think they shouldn't have pulled a stunt like that at all. so, does this mean, two will get eliminated once the top 5 has been selected? I don't think she needs to be there anymore. the others need American Idol but she doesn't, look at heejun performing on all 40+ states, what more if it's Jessica.

i was also sad because i thought jessica would be out of the american idol. but my heart jumped out of joy when i learned that she was saved by the judges. i was overwhelmed by how the judges told everybody that they chose to save jessica. she must be so honored and privileged. im so proud of her. i hope that she'll make it as a winner.

I don't know about her winning but there's a future for this girl now that she has gotten tons and tons of supporters. we all are so proud of her and what ever teh reasult maybe we should recognize that we are open minded and supportive of other contestants.
