What happened on AMERICAN IDOL?

The worst season for me was when Fantasia won. I just could not get into that season. This was alright. I didn't care about it after Chris left.

I loved it! Love her!! She's the best American Idol ever...now she's her own name. I"m so happy for her. The song is kinda poppy, I prefer her rock infused stuff but it's still good.

The fifth season of American Idol began on January 17, 2006. Auditions were Austin, Boston, Chicago, Denver and San Francisco, with Greensboro, North Carolina and Las Vegas, Nevada included after the cancellation of the Memphis auditions due to Hurricane Katrina.

taylor won but before that they had several guest appearances like the last ten performers before they got booted off the show ... they had the guys sing a macho guy kind of with a varity of songs and they same thing for the ladies.. clay aiken was on there and so was carrie underwood and meatloaf , dionne warwick... i was a musical blowout ... both katherine and taylor both got a brand new car to drive after the car....

(1) ace is out of his league. he can't sing. he's only still there because he's pretty.\n\n(2) people don't like katherine for some reason (though hers was one of the best performances).\n\n(3) kellie sucked but people like her.\n\n(4) elliot is way talented but he could be in trouble.\n\n(5) paris was okay. not her best.\n\n(6) bucky was actually pretty good. :) he surprises me.\n\n(7) taylor was awesome but who knows, people might not think so.\n\n(8) chris is gunna win the whole thing, especially now that mandisa is gone.

I think paris will be kicked off and I will stop watching if Elliot is kicked off. For the sake of getting and " orginal new fresh face" American Idol Katharine needs to go..she is typical of what's currently in the market and her performances have been  getting worse not better.

ok, i have always been a fan of american idol, however this season disappointed me so much.  I do not like taylor, i dont think hes marketable, and i saw him on a ford commercial, it was pathetic!!!!

hahaha...true, true. america has lost its music taste...or maybe Idol is rigged. maybe the crew gets to make the decision, not america. who knows? but I think that we will hear from chris again. no, scratch that-I KNOW that we will be hearing from chris again. and he WILL get far, I just know it ;)

Yeah They Know because it's not live. The American Idol episodes you are seeing this season were taped over the summer. They are still taping and the winner will probably win soon, but you won't know who it is until it airs at the end of the season

Chris went home because America doesn't know talent when they see or hear it. Now, i think Taylor or Elliot will get it and i can't stand neither one of them. Taylor jumps around like he forgot to take his ADD/ADHD meds and Elliot looks like a monkey with jacked up teeth. Kat would be my only other choice but, knowing america...she will get sent home too.

I don't know if it was Season 2 or not, but Mario Vasquez quit the show (rumor had it that he didnt want to get tied down with the American Idol contract if he won)

I was shocked that the 2 people favored to win, Chris and Kat, were the two with the lowest votes. I didn't think either of them deserved to go home, although Kat was labeled as the poorest of the performers this week. This was the shocker like 2 seasons ago when the best 3 people were all in the bottom 3 at the same time and the best of the year went home...Fantasia was not the best that year. Unfortunately, Chris Daughtry went home today and Kat will follow if she doesn't get back to her regular singing capabilities. I think this week was a definite disadvantage for both Chris and Kat and a big bonus for Taylor. I have no idea why they pulled this kind of theme out at this point in the competition. It should have been when there were 8 or more singers left. Taylor would probably be gone if he hadn't had the advantage this week..it was his kind of music.

I think that Taylor Hicks is a joke, and American Idol is somehow rigged.  He didn't deserve to win, and I don't believe he's only 29.

I HONESTLY THINK THAT THIS SHOW, JUST MIGHT BE RIGGED! Because last nights show...Kathrine was the one that was supposed to go, but right at the last minute, the announcer was told to pick CHRIS. It was so very obvious. How "CRUEL"and How very "HOUND-DOG-GISH"! Wouldn't you all agree? I am very "MAD" about how they tricked CHRIS. He is very, very, very good! And he did not deserve that at all. "BOO.....AMERICAN IDOL"!!!! BY THE WAY, ELLIOTT? well what can I say....YOU ARE! ALWAYS HAVE BEEN! AND WILL BE ....THE NEXT AMERICA'S FANTASTIC, GLORIOUS VOICE, "GOD" LOVING IDOL...AMEN!!! AND MAY GOD BLESS AND BE WITH EACH AND EVERYONE ONE OF YOU!  GOOD LUCK!

Go to www.youtube.com  and search for american idol finale.   One of the videos on the first search results page for me is the entire segment of the two of them singing.

Throw yourself down in the floor and kick your feet and cry like a big baby!  No No not really,  You should continue to support him in whatever way you can.   I'm sure there will still be a fan site where you can show your support for him should he win or not win.  Taylor is a winner either way.  I really feel he will get a contract either with American Idol's label or with another music label.  NO MORE NEGATIVE TALK OR THOUGHTS - TAYLOR IS THE AMERICAN IDOL!

It wasn't me! I voted 173 times by phone and dial idol got through 31 times. I am so NOT HAPPY! Chris was and STILL is the MAN. Chris WILL be a BIGGER STAR than whoever ends up winning. He will sell more albums and make more money too. This, being voted out, may not be a bad thing for Chris. He will not be under a contract with American Idol when he makes his album and will pocket more money than the actual winner will. CHRIS ROCKS!!!!!
