Tamyra Voted Off American Idol

Umm, am I the only one who thinks this was extremely biased and unfair?? Tamyra out-sung both of the other girls up there, altho she and Kelly were close. The other girl (her name slips my mind) thought she was going to get booted off and based of everyone's looks (including hers) they feel that she should have gotten the boot. What's Up, America?? I thought they were tripping when they voted off Christina Christian too! And am I the only one sick of Justin? He looks as fake as Michael Jackson...freak show.
What do ya'll think??

Paula, Randy AND Simon were PISSED, it showed on their faces AND in their comments. Randy agreed to help Tamyra out. Yea, NIKKI was the name I'd 4got. There was no way she should have stayed on over Tamyra. Justin is SO FAKE! If I heard right, last night Simon said he looked like a fake M.J. I've been saying that since I first saw him. Looks like he already went under the knife. Oh well, I'm pretty much done with the show now. Whoever's controlling the votes, be it the public, or some rigged thing, is not doing so fairly. America just wasn't feeling darker-hued women with soul and talent. Instead they pick off-key Nikki?!?!? Whatever!

I totally agree with all fo you!!! Nikki should've been voted off long ago (at least Rj got voted off though). I'm sick of Justin, too. All this talk of him being a sex symbol...I don't think so...

Yeah, Getting sick of Justin - he aint all that. I think he is on an ego trip. Please Justin cut your hair. I think Christina Christian sang well. I cannot believe Tamyra gets voted off. Saw a clip of Simon being interviewed about MJ, Simon says MJ is "off his rocker". Absolutely man - hey maybe Justin will get a nose job, chin job.

Tamyra got ripped off, but she is gonna get a record deal anyway. Nikki should have been gone but I was kinda hoping Justin would go. That PYT thing was just embarassing.

That was pretty strange...maybe Paula was more of a lip synch kinda girl? She ran off the stage pretty fast.
No Fun.

Maybe Paula got stage fright? Anyways the look on Paula's face the faces of the other judges and their verbal reactions. It was obvious Justin should have been voted out. He don't care, he just wants to win. I tell ya he thinks he is the next screwed up MJ.

Tamyra gained a lot of attention and got out of a terrible contract. Tonight was a HUGE victory for her.

I didn't see the vote off show last night, but I just KNEW Nikki was getting voted off!!! If Tamyra didn't win, I just knew it was going to be Kelly. They both can sang, but either way whoever didn't win out of the two of them would get a deal anyway!! Tamyra shouldn't have gotten voted off so early, but hey, she'll get picked up by somebody VERY quickly! I'd be surprised if Clive or some other A&R reps weren't there in LA waiting to pick up the pieces for the past 2 episodes, and I KNOW her phone's been ringing off the hook over the past 12 hours from record companies! If anything, Simon's willing to sign her regardless of the outcome of the show! LOL!

Such a shame Nikki and Justin's still in it, and Christina and Tamyra aren't! At least someone with true talent (Kelly) still has a chance! I don't mean to bring up race, but I think those watching the show AND voting were mainly white folks who couldn't feel or appreciate (they're the ones who made Britney a star) the vocal talents (and maybe the soulful songs she sang) of a Tamyra and possibly Kelly! They just weren't ready to see her win! sad That's what you get when you get some lame brain, no taste havin' Americans voting on shit! LOL!

I was thinking the SAME THING, but bit my tounge. Besides, to be real, you know black folks aint one for all that callin' in and mess, so I guess that's what happens. But it's probably a B.S record contract they're getting anyway! I think the finalists have a much better chance if they DONT win, to be honest

Don't worry about it, all the finalists will get album deals and then time will tell who had the talent and longterm viability.

All those shows are plain bullshit & fake contests.
The script is written since the beginning, and they all know who's gonna win before the show takes place.
It's a media manipulation organized by Tv channels & record companies.
Don't watch that shit & support indie artists instead.

A good facial appearance is important. Good facial expressions, to emphasize the emotion (if any) in the song is important also. But this guy Justin jus overdoes it. He reminds me of Richard Simmons. He needs to stop, you can tell he looks and the mirror and practices those facial expressions...
