recap: american idol brings it

last night we got not one or two, but THREE songs from the three remaining contestants. jordin, blake, and melinda each got to sing a judge's choice, producer's choice, and their choice.here's what they went with:
jordin
judge's choice- simon picks "wishing on a star"
producer's choice- "she works hard for the money"
contestant's choice- "i who have nothing"

blake
judge's choice- crazy paula picks "roxanne"
producer's choice- "this love"
contestant's choice- "when i get you alone"

melinda
judge's choice- randy picks a tough song "i belive in you and me"
producer's choice- "nutbush city limits"
contestant's choice- "i'm a woman"

overall, i have to say i agreed with the judges as to the contestants finally bringing it. although, they are the top three, so if they can't cut it by now, they are in deep shit.

so here's my assessment of last night and who i think is going home. the judges ADORE melinda beyond words. simon even went as far as saying he "loved her little striptease" (she only took off her jacket, but for a conservative girl like melinda, that is a striptease). i think by far, she is the one they want to take home the crown. i think blake ABSOLUTELY has a strong fan base. so who does that leave? jordin. but, if i had to make an educated guess, i'm gonna have to say that melinda will be in the bottom two with jordin because her fan base isn't as big as blake's. but, i'm sticking to my gut and saying jordin's journey ends tonight. blake and melinda will be in the finals next week (if i had my way it would be blake and jordin all the way!).

but don't cry for jordin. that girl can sing! and maybe she can do guest roles on ugly betty as her long lost sister!
