Well,
they're back. What season is this anyway? 11, 12, 29? I'm confused. I'm also old. When you hear one of the 16 year old contestents say that she's been dreaming of being on this show since she was 6 years old, and that it's all she's ever wanted to do,
her whole life... that, my friend is reality check time. She has no concept of a world withOUT American Idol...
oi. and vey.
So let's jump right in. Here are your Top 24

Top 12 Boys... Oh, did I skip 1, is there really a Top 13? Oh well, the Gentle Giant is a VERY sweet boy, but a non player in my opinion. (sorry Gentle Giant)

Aaand your Top 24 Girls... (and by the way, it's a good thing American Idol has a lot of money. They're going to need it to keep these girls in the blonde hair dye.)
bah-duh-bum-bum, I'll be here all week...
I won't really go into much detail here, as we won't know until later tonight who's staying and who's going, but let's just say after 8 years of recapping this show, I do not usually agree with America, and only 1 time has the person I actually predicted was going to win, actually win. (and that would be Carrie Underwood and now looking back, I don't think that was too difficult and worse that now I don't even like her.)
I will wait until next week to critique and praise the Top 13, but I will tell you, I have my top 10 already and if I had my way, they would be the following...

.......... Chelsea

.......... Elise

.......... Erika

.......... Jen

.......... Jessica

.......... Chase

.......... Deandre

.......... Heejun

.......... Joshua

.......... Reed
That's it people, I'll see you on the other side of America's ideas of who deserves to stay and who deserves to go.
