2 months into AI and this video suddenly  shows up.

Probably one of  the remaining  contestants spilled

the beans.

I think Grace, Wilile and Casey all have otherworldly talent.  I would purchase anything they record and be very happy to listen to them sing.

They are all very talented. I would have preferred Casey as the third choice over Chayce but I’m ok with it.

i have said it before, but this has been overall the best group of singers in a while. all of them are so talented and have tons of potential.

Re: American Idol top 5

[ Edited ]

Yes, it's only 4 years, but there is a huge difference in being 12 years old and being 16.  Can we not allow for immaturity? For growth, change? .... in those ensuing years?   Is this society so unforgiving that we can't even imagine that someone isn't exactly the same at 16 as they were at 12?  Nope that's it - he's out.  No opportunities for him because he did something dumb when he was 12.   

 

and plus, he said that wasn't what he was doing.  anyway, I feel sad for him.  He's a talented kid.

I didn't like Caleb's singing but sorry to see him go out like this.  I looked up the picture on TMZ and it's definitely a "KKK" hood.  People do stupid things when they are 12.


@TurnerGal In the movie it was a white cap-style hood, close fitting. In Caleb's video is was clearly a pointed kkk hood. Yes, people do stupid things when they're 12. But in his case it was only 4 years ago! My understanding is AI asked him to leave when the video surfaced.

Re: American Idol top 5

[ Edited ]

This is my rundown some of the past contestants

 


Caleb had no personality...no star quality at all. To be the American Idol, you need more than just a nice voice....it is presentation and the IT factor. He had a nice voice...but the rest of him was just bla. Shabby dress, always covering up his  lazy eye he did not like with those awful hats...no showmanship at all. Looked bored. GOOD RIDDANCE 

Willie sings nice,  but there are a lot of good church gosple singers around... Maybe he can get a job on TBN on one of the singing programs. It seems all he sings is spiritual songs and that is just not going to appeal to a large segment of the population. It is not American Idol quality  as far as who he is reaching.  I do worry for his health with his weight being so high. He must weigh close to 600 pounds.

The girl with the big hips is OK. Not exciting... maybe she will end up winning...get a contract with weight watchers lose 100 pounds ...and get a movie Golden globe and surprise us all....we will see. She does have a very odd weight distribution.  Almost looks like lymphedema? Must be very difficult to find clothes. Makes her stand out though..... and she has a pretty face.

 

The Girl with the long curly hair is good for 15 years old.  Not much star quality...but she is YOUNG.

The guy with the greasy slicked back hair I think has the best presentation of all of them.  Good voice...pleasing appearance...has most of the IT factor qualities. I think he will most likely win....

 

just my opinion....which  does not matter😄

@SeaMaiden  All 3 are incredibly talented, these were my 3 favorites for awhile. However I think Chayce will win simply because he's now going to get Caleb's votes. Did anyone notice he sang country music last night?

All three final contestants are great, but my favorite is WILLIE.  Good ole' Georgia boy.

 

I don't like the comments about the weight of these two contestants.  That is unnecessary and unkind.  This is a talent contest, not a Miss or Mr. Universe contest.  Sure would like to see those that spew about weight a picture of themselves. 

 

AND....I think we need more gospel style music especially in the world events today.  Willie is more than spiritual....he is a class act who shows unprecedented compassion, joy and hope in his singing.  GO WILLIE.
