Alaina's Emotional Exit And The Alexandrea/David Connection
So, when I was picking my predictions for which of the two girls would be sent home tonight, I knew Alexandrea Lushington was a given. I debated that the second elimination would be between Alaina Whitaker, Kristy Lee Cook or Kady Malloy. The three girls, while all equally cute, are so similar looking I figured they would cancel each other out. I ultimately went with Kristy because she performed so close to the top of the show and was a bit older than the other girls.
Alaina being eliminated was a little bit of a shock because I thought her young innocence would appeal to other young kids – the ones who obsessively text and vote for the contestants. So, there goes that theory.
What a great moment though when Ryan said she would be going home and she screamed, “I Can’t Sing!” I thought it was really sweet that he gave her a choice to sing or not to sing. I talk every year about how horrendous it is that they force them to sing their exit song through tears and disappointment. I loved when the rest of the girls yelled, “Do it!” Those are the moments that I think make reality shows so compelling to watch.
It was a little odd that Alexandrea Lushington went over and consoled David Archuleta after SHE got eliminated. Shouldn’t he have been consoling her? Some of the Idol message boards tonight are wondering whether these two might be a couple. I think the chances of this are very, very slim. I’m assuming they are close because both she and David along with Alaina had to attend
I’m telling you, like I said last night rocker Robbie Carrico needed to bust out his boy band side. I’m so annoyed that im still stuck on jury duty because I soooo wanted to ask him tomorrow at the Idol junket about his three month relationship with Britney Spears in 2002. I also was going to force him to bust out with some boy band lyrics for me. I’m still a little shocked he got the boot though because he was on my ten to watch list. That means right now im only 9/10.
Ok got to wrap this up quick, “Lost” is on.
