Let me get right to it though and say that the Bottom 3 will be Jacob Lusk, Stefano Langone, and yes Haley Reinhart. I know. It pains me to write her name here because I thought she did an amazing rendition of Adele's Rolling In The Deep, but she just doesn't have a strong fanbase - Haley was part of the Bottom 3 thrice since the Finals started. That's 3 out of the 6 weeks of competition. And while she got positive reviews from the judges, it was mostly lukewarm praises compared to the superlatives most of the contestants got.
Jacob Lusk's performance was also decent last night, but he'll probably hit the Bottom 3 again for obvious reasons. That said, I think he got a good amount of pity votes from his tears last night. Stefano Langone, on the other hand, worked his charms to full extent and I bet it made all the tweens wet, but just like Haley, he flirted with elimination a couple of times already. 3 out of the 6 weeks. Oh, and he's a wildcard, which means people didn't vote for him to get into the Finals.
I wouldn't be surprised though if Casey Abrams lands in the Bottom 3 again. My theory was that he got voted off a week after he somewhat butchered Nirvana's rocking Smells Like Teen Spirit. And while he did better this time with a Maroon 5, I just think America wants the jazzy Casey and not the rock Casey? But what do I know.
Now, one BIG question this week though: Could Scotty McCreery be in serious danger this week? I mean, he went first, he didn't do so well - or at the very least forgettable, the judges gave him a few negative reviews, the majority of the other contestants had great performances, the other Bottom 3 threats haven't done badly enough to make them an OBVIOUS Bottom 3 candidates AND his primary competitor for country votes got the pimp spot, and happened to be one of the only two remaining girls left. Well, that should be really interesting no?
But as much as I like Jacob Lusk to go home, I feel like Stefano Langone will get the boot this week. Top 7 usually eliminates the person who overstayed their welcome - Sanjaya Malakar, Kristy Lee Cook and Tim Urban - so I think it's his time to go. I'm not saying he's in the same league because he's vocally far better than these three whatever, but as I've said, he's been in the Bottom 3 for a couple of weeks. So, people might see him as someone who overstayed already.
Ok. I said too much. Let's see.
