American Idol 12: Top 10 Results Show

It’s that time of the week again! American Idol eliminated its first finalist and we will move forward in the competition. Top 10 week wasn’t too impressive, but that's usually the deal at the beginning of the finals round. Now, while it was pretty refreshing on American Idol that some true results were revealed tonight - copying X Factor US eh? - I’m pretty uncomfortable knowing who ranked where. It flopped in that other reality singing show - it killed the unpredictability of it all - and I don't see it changing with American Idol.

Let’s talk about the young man who left us in tenth place!

Curtis Finch, Jr. Yes, I saw this one coming. Aside from the fact that he's remotely likable, he performed first, which was obviously a death spot, and yes, his performance wasn't that good. Plus, I think he overreached. He probably saw guys like Joshua Ledet and Jacob Lusk take on huge predictable songs during their seasons and get far in the competition and assumed, "I’m just as good as them." Sadly, he wasn’t. Not even close. In the end, the reason behind his departure was rather simple. Curtis was eliminated because he was not consistent enough to progress to the next round and no one really liked him. End of story.
