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!

bruce got really sick and needed to be taken off the show. there was no tribal council so no one was booted off. bruce automatically was the person taken off the show due to his illness.

I think Chris's time was coming.  He's an amazing singer and he'll have a career no matter what but I was getting a little bored with him.  It's the same every week.  I think Katharine will take the win this year!

Because this competition is fixed. There's no reason that Chris should have gone home when Katherine forgot her lyrics. How the hell else could something like that happen unless the show is fixed? I agree, Chris Daughtry was my favourite too. I was hoping it would be between him and Taylor Hicks. I was SURE that either Elliot Yamin, or Katherine McPhee was going to go home last night. Now that Chris is gone I'm not sure I even want to watch it anymore. He was set up. \n\nC'mon think about it. The show before last was an obvious example of how corrupt this competition is...when Paula CRIED for Elliot, and yet Katherine was DOGGED by all 3 judges when she did REALLY WELL that night, and didn't get recognition till the next day AFTER votes were made. That's just ludicrous! I don't think I'll be watching anymore seasons of this show in the future.

It better be Josh Blue.  He is by far the funniest out of everyone.  Everyone keeps saying the show is fixed.  So, if they kick him off, I will boycott the show.  Just like I did American Idol when Chris was voted off.

Yea, yea.. It's all done but I still got to throw in my few cents. I'm glad Taylor won, if Kat would've won, hm-mm.. I think I would have gone postal and shot my t.v. I was 100% for Chris and when he got voted off, I stopped watching, they said his fans didn't care, that was crap, I alone called over 300 x the night before he got kicked. Chris was the better out all the American Idols ever and he was bigger then the AI show it's self and they couldn't handle that and so they made up there minds he had to go. In the end ALL REALITY SHOWS, regardless of who votes, it's the producers that decides who stays and who goes for the better ratings. I started to watch the auditions and me and my kids fell in love w/ Chris and from here on out, I won't even take the time for the auditions.. : (\n\nOK, so y'all got a few dollars worth.. lol

I agree 100%.  I have been in a really bad mood ever since he got voted off.  I think the whole thing is rigged and I am boycotting the rest of the show!  BOOO American Idol!  :(

I absolutely agree with you. Tonight's episode all three judges (even Simon believe it or not. lol.), said that Chris was great!! Elliott, Ace and Taylor are also both outrageous singers but Chris has never been in the final 3 and Elliott, Ace and Taylor all have been. If a girl were to win I would say Katherine. The rest of the girls had been in the bottom 3 but Katherine has only been there once.

Bucky, Elliot, and Ace.  Bucky was voted off.

HAHA, I WAS ROLLING MYSELF! THAT WAS HILARIOUS. AND DID YOU SEE HIM TRYING TO ACTUALLY SING WITH CLAY? AND THEN RYAN PULLED THE GUY OFF TO THE SIDE. HOW FUNNY. I CAN'T BELIEVE AMERICAN IDOL ACTUALLY LET THAT GOOF-BALL TRY TO SING WITH CLAY.\n\nNOW AS FAR AS THE VIDEO, GIVE IT A FEW DAYS AND IT SHOULD POP UP SOMEWHERE. MAYBE EVEN YOUTUBE.COMOF BEST WEEK EVER ON VH1 ON FRIDAY, BUT I DON'T KNOW. JUST KEEP A LOOK OUT. HOLLA AT CHA.

all i know is that if chris gets kicked off im going to be pissed! hes such a great singer! i think kelly should be kicked off

i am soo mad! how could they do that? i think american idol is rigged. he had too many fans to be the bottom one. katherine should have been the one to go. but i think chris will get a record deal soon from someone else anyway. he has enough talent and doesnt need american idol to make that happen.

I agree with Elizabeth.  This "controversy" has been completely blown out of proportion.  Chris is original in this competition, and he doesn't compromise on who he is as a performer no matter what genre is selected.  Chris never once said that version was his arrangement, and don't you think if it were, the producers would have hyped that up so much that no one would have had any doubt!?  They would have shown him working on it and collaborating with the band etc.  There was none of that.  I never assumed for a moment that it was Chris' own work.  By the way, not one of the others has done any original versions of their songs either so why single Chris out for that purpose?  I personally don't think they have enough time to actually come up with an original arrangement in the short time they have to prepare for their next performance.
