American Idol's Final Five Prepare to Battle it Out

Competition Heats Up More Each Week as the Numbers Keep Dropping

Kimberly Smith
With last week's vote off of Lil and Anoop, it dropped the count to five remaining. It was sad to see them both have to go in the same week, but the truth is they were the weaker links in the American Idol chain and somebody has to go every week. It leaves us with the final five American Idol contestants that should be the best of the best. I have my doubts that at least one of them should still be in it, but that is just my personal feeling about "her" performances so far. These five will battle it out, Tuesday April 28 to earn a spot in the top four next week.

When you look at the field it becomes pretty obvious that our next American Idol will be a guy. Allison is the only female still hanging on and that may be by a very thin thread. She will have to give an amazing performance this week or she could find herself packing it in. She is one of the weakest of the remaining five. Another contestant that needs to really shine this week is Matt.

While I personally think that he and Kris are more rounded and what we are looking for in the next American Idol, the voting public has thrown their weight behind Adam. It may be a safe bet at this point to say that it will come down to a showdown between Adam and Danny.

I would prefer it were Danny and Matt or Danny and Kris, but I have but only one vote. If I had to speculate how I think the next few weeks will pan out I would say that Allison goes home this week, then Matt, then Kris and then let's all pray that Danny boy comes up with something that shows Adam a thing or two about being an American Idol.

  • Allison is the only female left in the pack.
  • Adam seems to have the voting public solidly behind him.
  • Matt and Kris are both terrfic performers, but will they get lost in the shuffle.
With the elimination of two contestants last week we are left with the final five, four of which are guys.
It's a safe bet that the next American Idol will be a guy, just which one is the question still to be answered.

    Adam is the most talented contestant by far. It is not even close. I mean please.

    Kathrine McPhee graces the stage these days with the likes of Josh Grobin and Andre Bocceli. She is destined for greatness just perhaps not in the arena that has your focus.

    I think you are either stupid, deaf, or have a bizarre sense of humor....Danny Gokey (The Ugly Boy) should be eliminated soon....The winner of AMERICAN IDOL 2009 will be Adam Lambert.....Danny Gokey is the most boring and unattractive contestant ever on IDOL....Perhaps you are suffering from dementia because of your Danny Mania??

    Are u on drugs? Adam is in a class by himself. The others are typical, boring also rans. Listen to "Mad World" again. No one can touch that performance.
