American Idol -Judges' Wildcards Revealed

Did Your Favorite Contestant Get a Second Chance?

American Idol wildcard picks were revealed tonight. Oh and results were in from Tuesday night's show. The totally unsurprising results were revealed and in case there is anyone out there who didn't know, and really if you didn't you must not be watching the show, here are the American Idol hopefuls that America picked.

Lil Rounds was first up. The results were in and she was picked as the first American Idol finalist for this show. She kicked butt in her performance so really there was never any doubt.

The next finalist was also a no-brainer. Scott Macintyre, from my home state of good ole Arizona, made it to the next round. You can do it Scott! Give Arizona the honor of having two American Idol winners.

Before I announce the last pick, I would like to give a shout out to the poor slobs waiting on the couch in the back row. Come on, there are 5 of you left and only one seat available. Everyone knows the first three hopefuls are out of luck. Heck Ryan Seacrest didn't even bother to have them walk the three feet over to the stage. My hat's off to you for playing along and not giving Ryan the finger.

Without further ado, I will announce the final contestant. It was Jorge Nunez. Jorge has an amazing voice. He is adorable. I loved it when he said he couldn't express how he felt in English because he was so excited.

So on to the wildcard picks. These are the judges' picks of who has one more shot to become one of the twelve American Idol finalists. As Simon Cowell pointed out, this is a very important show. Jennifer Hudson and Clay Aiken both were wild card picks.

A few of the wildcard picks were obvious judge favorites like Anoop Desai and Jesse Langseth. My favorite, Jasmine Murray was also pretty obvious. The one that will leave most people rolling their eyes and scratching their heads is Tatiana Del Toro.

Tatiana was doing her best to contain herself, but Ryan Seacrest managed to nudge her into drama overdrive. Thanks, Ryan. At least the camera crew didn't hover in her face like they did on the show she was booted off of, that was disgusting to watch-not her behavior, American Idol's behavior by trying to force her into hysterics.

Also included in the wildcard choice were Von Smith, Ricky Braddy, Matt Giraud and Megan Corkey.

Tomorrow night America will get to see these wildcard contestants strut their stuff. Only three will be chosen to move on to the final twelve. Pick good songs everyone and good luck! Watkins out.

    Glad I missed it. If Tatiana is back, I'm outta there! I just can't stand her dramatics.
