Allison Iraheta leaves Idol

64 million votes were cast for rock night– where Gwen Stefani, Chris Daughtry and the week’s mentor Slash performed but despite Allison getting the Guns N Roses legend to play with her on a version of School’s Out she was still kicked off the show.

 

That now leaves three guys to compete for the coveted American Idol title and the record deal that goes with it. They are Danny Gokey, Adam Lambert and Kris Allen. IMO, a great shame as Allen is the weakest link and replacing him with Allison would have made for a better final three. Unfortunately Allen is more rated on his looks than his singing ability and it seems that took him through.

 

It was also interesting to see Paula Abdul performing as she debuted her new single I’m Just Here For The Music. She was flanked by six male dancers as she performed the track and she did a pretty good job. Further, news has now come out that Paula actually wasn’t drunk in the past…you know, the nights where she seemed spaced out…apparently it was the side effects of drugs that were apparently 80 times more powerful than morphine!

 

So on we go, American Idol reaches its climax on May 20 when the winner will be announced. Who will it be? Give us your thoughts…
