I don't get it. He's not a good singer, or at least not a good performer. He's way too prissy to be attractive to woman, not to mention a lot of gay men (I think he would be too girly for even them!). He was weirdly reminiscent of Michael Jackson of all people on Tuesday night. I just don't get why he hasn't been voted off yet. He was one of my picks to go away in the first round of eliminations and now he's made it to week three? If you agree with me that he needs to be gone, I'd love you to commiserate. If you think he's great, please help me understand.

I agree with the other comment, it was sympathy votes. People didn't like when Randy and Simon made fun of his hat and singing. I think that is what saved him last week. AJ should not have gone home. And as for Antonella, she should have been sent home long ago.

Oh I so totally agree. I don't think he's all that great, and the world is just not ready for another Michael Jackson. He annoys me and just isn't a great performer or singer. I mean I guess it was cute at first that he and his sister made it through but yea, he should have been voted off with her. I really want to know who the people are who are voting for him to stay in.

I think both he an Antonella must have sympathy votes. I figured she was getting votes because people may consider her attractive, but him..no idea. I like the kid. I think he's sweet. Just not equal to some of the real talent they have this year. I don't think it's right and I think that there are websites I've heard of that rally people to vote for the worst just to "mess" with the system. This might be why they are still there. Luckily none of the best people have been voted off yet because of these two, but if that starts to happen, I will most definitely stop watching all together.

I agree all the way around. That man?? boy?? drives me NUTS! Funny I guess I am not the only one who thought that he looks a lot like Micheal Jackson. Kinds acts like him too.
