Will Taylor Hicks' entertainer potential overcome the singing talent of Chris Daughtry, to win American Idol?

I think that Taylor has a legion of fans.  If you notice, he is the only one to have never been in the bottom 2 or 3. I personally like Chris' style of music better, but I find Taylor to be immensely entertaining.  It is going to get interesting...

American Idol's 5th season is now down to it's second to last week and only three finalists are left! On Tuesday, for the first time this season, the finalists will sing three songs each: one of their choice, one chosen by the Judges and one chosen by legendary music producer Clive Davis. Don't miss a note Tuesday, starting at 8/7c. Then, come back Wednesday for a special 1-hour results show, featuring Clive Davis, starting at 9/8c. Only on FOX!\n\nI was SHOCKED also!  I thought the final 2 would come down to Chris & Taylor.  In the hopes of Taylor winning, but Chris is very good also (much better than Elliott or Kat in my opinion.)  Although Im pulling for Taylor I could not believe he was voted off especially befor Elliott!

I would like to see either Ace Young, Chris Daughtry or Taylor Hicks take it. They are all very strong competitors; I have been greatly impressed with the male competition this year.

Chris had recently deceded not to front the band "Fuel".  He stated in an interview that he would focus on his solo career when the American Idol Tour '06 wraps up this summer.\n\nThe following is an article from PEOPLE MAGAZINE....\n\nAmerican Idol favorite Chris Daughtry has declined an offer to become the lead singer for the multiplatinum rock band Fuel, he said. \n\n"I'm going to be doing my own thing," Daughtry, a 26-year-old from McLeansville, N.C., told The Charlotte Observer on Saturday. \n\nThe band had offered Daughtry the job only hours after his elimination from the FOX show last month. Bass player Jeff Abercrombie and guitarist Carl Bell told the TV show Extra that Daughtry was invited to replace singer Brett Scallions, who quit in February. \n\nDaughtry said he expects to announce his next career move in a few months, most likely after this summer's American Idol concert tour ends. \n\nHe told The Charlotte Observer he'd met with entertainment executives last week in New York and seen a Pearl Jam concert. \n\nShortly after being voted off Idol, Daughtry told PEOPLE about the offer from Fuel, "They're good friends of mine, and right now I'm just thinking everything through and making sure that I make the right decision for me and my family. Those things take time."

I do like to watch American Idol, but was a little disappointed with last season.  I thought that Constantine shouldn't have been sent home when he was.  There was no way that Scott Savol was better than him.  Anyway, that was last year.  This year I think it's going to be the guys turn to win... I really like Taylor Hicks and Chris Daughtry and of course Ace.  :)  It would be nice to see Taylor or Chris win; they aren't the "sterotypical" idols the judges and America seem to be looking for.

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!

yes i think that he has a soulful voice and that if he wins that would be a big change for american idol. taylor has a voice like no other. i feel if he does not win he still should get a record deal with somebody

I really want Taylor Hicks to win, I think he's an incredible singer and has just the right attitude.

the worst thing that could happen is. she could reveal that shes an uber strong alein from the plant orgiadsfk here to take over the Billboard charts and the world with her uber strong singing capabilities.  she will have a huge song battle with Taylor, Paris, and KAthrine McPhee. it will be very much like power rangers until the great round house kicker, Chuck Norris steps in defeats them all cause no one but wins american idol but chuck norris. Dont fear people because the chances of this happening are quite slime 1 in 5 odds i think.  GO KELLY!

As good as they both were, i think Taylor will be our next American Idol. Katherine is a great performer, but Taylor is an entertainer! I've not seen an entertainer like Taylor since Elvis Presley! With their own unique styles.. Am I the only one who sees a remarkable resemblance in Taylor and Elvis??  That should tell us all how great his potential in show business could be...  I just hope he handles it better than Elvis did in his later years...  Go Taylor...  SOUL PATROL!!!
