If it couldn't be CHRIS.. then TAYLOR was the next best all around entertainer.\nThe right choice was made last night...

me 2, Kat was soooo awesome.  She totally should have won, i mean her version of "over the rainbow" was mind blowing.  Taylor never should have won, it was probably rigged.

In my opinion, I think Katharine should have won. She has talent beyond belief. Chris is also extraordinary, but actually, it's a good thing he didn't win, because he isn't going to be bound by a contract with AI like Taylor is. Chris is an icon of his own, and WILL go far! He honestly didn't even need AI, because his talent speaks for itself! Taylor is good, don't get me wrong, but he's more of a novelty, and would be great in Vegas.

I think Taylor will win, he reminds me of Joe Cocker.. He is not only a good singer but he is a performer as well, I wish him luck!!\n\nP.S. I wonder if the guy who said WHO CARES knows how immature he sounds.. omg, like, grow up. lol

I wondered the same thing. One thing was obvious about the show was it was taped the morning after the finals. They taped a show with only Taylor first. Then they did all the idols--except Elliott. \n\nMy only guess is that he had another pressing engagement. He had been offered dental work, maybe he had to get some more of that done in the time crunch.\n\nI'm a big fan of Elliott, too and look forward to his album showing the others up in sales and chart hits.

Kat has a wonderful voice, but she was inconsistant in her vocals. She is only 21, gorgeous, and will have a great career. Don't be mad about it. I love Taylor's voice, attitude, and style. I think he deserved it.

I was voting Chris to go all the way and then look what happened last week.  Kat should of went.  So that leaves Taylor and Elloit.  I like Taylor but too me he is more of a performer.  So i guess that leaves me to hope Elloit goes all the way.  He is the one that has improved since day one.

Chris was the best.  The bottom three SHOULD be Kellie (although I love her and want her to stay), Paris and Katherine.\n\nI can't guess who it will be though.  Kellie seems to have enough fans to keep her out of trouble.  Taylor could end up there, but I don't think he has been yet, so he may be safe.  Katherine annoys enough people that she's a safe bet.

I have been voting for Elliott.  I think he sings better than Taylor, but Taylor obviously has a better personality and in the long run may be a better performer.  Taylor tries to perform for the crowd.

I hope she wins.  She and Taylor both have great voices, no doubt about that, but she is more of an "idol" type than he is.  He reminds me of a Karaoke singer.

I think Taylor will win and I've been rooting for him from the beginning.  I have never seen anyone enjoy singing so much!  You can just see it in him every single song he's done!  I love the passion he brings to it.

I love the show even though I live in the UK. Chris was my favourite and it was sad to see him voted off. I think that Katherine will win as she has a very strong voice, providing that she chose the right songs. The wrong choice of song could lose her the contest.Taylor seems a nice lad but I think he comes across too much like a partying karaoke singer.

Mandisa was an incredible powerhouse, full of joy and love and music.  I suppose no one really thought she needed our votes early on when she was voted off.  Chris was a great rocker.  Elliot had a perfect voice, but only started to loosen up and show his personality in the last two shows.  Paris was the best female jazz vocalist.  Yet, all in all, I always rooted for Taylor.  He had it all and he was so unhibited in putting on a total performance.  The final cut was absolutely correct.  Taylor should have, and did, win!

Taylor, He is so unique. Katherine is like any other singer out there ... w/ amazing talent tho, but the music world needs Taylor.

I DO!! Katherine rocks!! Taylor had a good stage presence and makes it exciting, but he has no talent!! anyone could go up there and do wat taylor did!! I definetley voted for Katherine. She was, like, the only talent they had this season.

I wouldn't say the season has been a waste since we saw a lot of talented singers.  However, if the purpose of American Idol is to find a talented singer,  I think they failed.  Mandissa was the female singer that was the strongest vocally.  For males, hands down Chris and Elliot were the best vocals.  I think Taylor has been successful in entertaining the crowd every week.  Katherine however, has had to stoop to using her appearance and sex appeal to remain in the competition.  Her sultry looks into the camera, low cut and skimpy attire, etc kept her in the competition.  How many times did we hear the judges comment on her appearance instead of her singing?  OUt fo teh remaining contestants..my vote is for Taylor.
