American Idol Results: Michael Johns is Gone?

SHOCK AND EMOTION...
I don't know what is more wrong... the fact that Michael Johns is no longer in the American Idol competition or how Ryan gave him a flicker of hope in the end that he might stick around another week.  I know Ryan teases contestants, but there was something horribly, evily selfish about how he acted tonight.  It was like he was just happy it wasn't his precious Kristy Lee Cook.  I mean, can you be any more obvious?

The other extremely talented Carly Smithson and Syesha Mercado also had the least amount of votes.  It had been speculated upon that Syesha would be the one to go home this week.

The Australian honey was supposed to stick around for finals week.  I had a plan!  I have more to say on this, but I want to know what you think.

Oh yeah, and so far Idol Gives Back raised over $60 million dollars and its not over - you can still donate. Tonight, there was a spill over of celebrity talent pleading for your money for the six charitable organizations it represents.  The show continued its feel-good vibe until the end when Michael Johns was told he had the least amount of votes.  It was how he was told.  Talk about ruining a moment.  Very tacky Ryan Seacrest.

Jacki said:

i am SHOCKED. my jaw is dropped. and ryan was evil to make that comment that last year no one went home. he gave michael and fans a glimmer of hope and then ripped it away. SO BUMMED.

Liz said:

This should never have happened. I don't think I am watching anymore this year. It just pisses me off too much!

H.G.B said:

Nioliopea said:

ss said:

Ian said:

Good get him off there. this is AMERICAN idol. Not irish, british or australian.

Amy said:

What? I have to watch this right now.

Anonymous said:

Totally shocked! What are American thinking! Can't believe it. Kristy Cook should have eliminated, not Michael Johns. God!!!

Lea said:

What a bad call.

splenda said:

How did this happen. I thought he did a good job this week he was my favorite performer.His wife looked pissed. I don't think anyone expected it. MJ-forever!

eat said:

Crap he was the hottest one. Ryan probably hated the competition.

ZZLopus said:

Is it really the last season for American Idol?

Chris said:

I loved this guy and really thought he'd be the winner. too bad.

Jeanie said:

No one can believe this. No one.

wave said:

Watch Kristey Cook get the idol crown.

little k said:

I was shocked, blindsided! I used to like Carly but was actually rooting against her last nite. And I voted for Syesha who I feel is often dissed by the judges. But I almost voted for Michael. He was fantastic doing Dream On. I have to believe that when the show ended and Paula and Randy were whispering in his ear, that it *had* to be that he has a long career ahead of him in music (or, as I feel, in films). Remember Chris Daughtry was voted off too and look where he landed! Michael deserved a better fate but hey, this is America...who re-elected George Bush. So how smart could most of 'em be anyway? PO'd, obviously:(

ddb said:

My jaw dropped, literally. I will only continue to watch to hope that Kristy Lee Cook does not win. If she does, I swear I will never watch the show.....ever. Oh and how about the way he lead Michael to believe that since it was Idol gives back week and last year they didn't send anyone home that he might not actually go home???? What an A#$!!!

Haley said:

I am crying still crying when I woke up this am.

Diva said:

I am still in shock! I thought for sure they would eliminate Syesha! I did not think they would eliminate Michael Johns! He is too talented!

Olivia said:

Oh my god ryan was so rude. I just watched that. what is his problem. I really liked Michael Johns. Thanks for adding that vidfeo clip. I didn't get to see the end of last night's show.

GVS said:

Who ever thought they had to worry about Michael's chances?

Fran said:

I do not believe it.

Laura said:

I always thought Ryan was very respectful to contestants. Why did he do that?

Cathy said:


I cannot believe this crap! Something is not right here. I, along with alot of other people I know that watch AI, say they will never watch it again. And as for you Ryan, RUDE, very RUDE!

Jim said:

I HATE RYAN SEABURGER ANYWAY. HE THINKS HE HAS TALENT?

Sorry said:

G'day mate!

Lynda says: I was really angry about Ryan's comments at the end of the show after Michael Johns was voted off. To give us some hope that Michael might not go after he was talking about what happened last year after AI Gives Back was cruel, rude, hateful. Ryan needs to make some apologies to Michael AND to the viewers!

Jumper said:

I have a funny feeling about this.

Smith's said:

My sister thought she was pissed when she couldn't make it back to her family due to the American Airlines sh*t. Her kids don't care. They are too upset about Michael Johns to even notice.

GOOD said:

This is the best thing that ever happeend to him.

dana said:

Ace Young was just on a show saying the same thing. Remember Ace!

Skeeter_1313 said:

I had really hoped the finals would consist of David Cook, Michael Johns, and Carly Smithson. Now that would have been a HOT show.

Ville said:

Remember Ace How could anyone who reads Julia's recap ever forget Ace? I think the whole thing was a mess and I agree Ryan was totally totally RUDE. I actually thought he was going to tell him he did not have to go. And Ian where do all the Americans come from if not Ireland, Australia, Italy, Germany etc etc.

TAP said:

I am in shock. How could America have not voted for Michael Johns and voted for Kristy and Brook. I like Brook but this week she was actually the weakest. Kristy is week every week but no one seems to care. What is going on.

Susan2008 said:

WOW. so cool guy,do you still play on the tall dating site ~~~ Tallhub dot com ~~~ ???The last time I saw you profile is last Monday, hope you do not ...

lola said:

I cried for 3 hours afterwards and almost had a heart attack from Sleazecrest's cruel taunting- I mean, my heart rate literally skyrocketed and I was thisclose to spending my night at the ER.

Mags said:

America got it all wrong. Michael make records soon.

juju said:

Ian he is an American citizen so shut your pie hole! This show was brought to us by the brits anyway.

hopeful said:

I have always been a Ryan Seacrest fan but what the hell!!! I can't believe he would go out of his way to be so mean to Micheal and to the fans, who for a single second thought Micheal would be saved. With all the giving and good thoughts going into that show...why would he make such a nasty comment??? He better address this next week and apologize. Maybe we will se Micheal next week because of his awfulness?

MAD said:

I wanted Kristie Lee gone a long time ago but now I am so done with Brooke!! She sucks, she really does. She has no range what so ever and I am sick of her mouseyness. She should have gotten the boot and she wasn't even in the bottom three????? Who the hell is voting for her? Whoever you are stop she can't sing!!!!!

doubtful said:

dream on hopeful. even though i wish it were true!

lady liberty said:

America did get it wrong and I am thinking something is fishy about this because the judges (even though Paula looked completely surprised. they probably purposely leave HER in the dark because she would definitely give it away) didn't even say America got it wrong. And to you Ian, you are what is wrong with America, don't be such a sh*t head! Michael was so grateful and humble about being on the show and making it as far as he did. People like you are what gives this country a bad name!

Tessa said:

I can't believe the results Michael should not have been in the bottom three let alone voted off. What the heck is going on? And what's up with Ryan? Michael Johns has been a great contestant. He has always been polite, accepted critism well, was respectful of the judges. Ryan owes Michael and his fans an apology. He was way out of line

puzzled said:

why are the judges always coming down so hard on Syesha? she really has a great voice...just as good as Carly. I think they have their favorites or who they want off and they comment accordingly. They probably don't want another african american girl to win right after jodan sparks. or whatever their reason is they don't give her the props she so righteoulsy deserves. she has an amazing voice and when she sang dolly parton's song and ended it with whitney's version she was right on the money!! i can't believe they all dissed her...things that make you go hmmmmmmmmmmm!

what?? said:

so much for the people who think they have it all down as to who is getting voted off.

jay-jay said:

I hope ryan reads this blog or at least has people telling him what an a**hole he was thurs night and how so many people are fuming over his unnessesary comments giving people a glimmer of hope that Michael would stay on another week. Shame on you Ryan. Maybe you should get the boot and see how it feels!!!

8-ball said:

Can someone please help Carly with her wardrobe! Her shirts are fine (to an extent) but stop with the skin tight pants that are calling on all camels:) It is really bothering me!

sux said:

I'd just like to say to all you with dropped jaws. How would you like that big balled bloke to drop it in. Yall in for an all nighter?

Susan2008 said:

In addition, i want to inform you that someone here is keeping saying you are seeking a sugar girl on TALLHUB. c om recently.. maybe you need to stop the slurring!

Susan2008 said:

hi

MR Cash said:

It must have been fixed to eliminate the foreign element. My money next week is on Ireland taking a bashing!
Ryan even hinted at the fix - saying that the same week last year, no one went home.
Not much charity this week though!

Rudy said:

I was happy to see MJ go. He was good enough to get this far but “Good by and good luck!” He will become a star, for what that is worth. Remember this is a TV show! These Celebs are not people to emulate. They are some of the most empty unhappy people in the world and we worship them and follow their every move because they are rich?! Let the show be a little diversion from your empty meaningless life but don’t make it out to be more than it is. And Ryan Seacrest is a part of the show just like Simon. It is a ‘SHOW!” TW is not reality. American Idol being at the top of the list.

Tonight is Mariah Carey. Will they have to sing Maraiah's songs?
