A KO for David Cook

Simon said he watched Tuesday night's performance again when he got home and "it wasn't quite so clear-cut as we called it."

They were all praise for Archuleta, bashed Cook, thinking that the people would follow their lead. But the people voted for who they thought was fit to be the next American Idol. A lot were expecting Archuleta to be the winner. But thank goodness the one who is really deserving got the title.

It was good to see the top 12 perform again. I was so thrilled to see Ramiele Malubay and Jason Castro. But it seemed that Ramiele's singing parts were so short. Really. The parts should have been divided equally, regardless of height.

Also, Jimmy Kimmel bashed another one of my favorites. Here's the spoken line: Hey maybe you guys could help me with this. I valet parked outside, how much should I tip Sanjaya?

And here's a video of Archuleta's fans gathered at the Energy Solutions Arena to watch the live broadcast of the finale. Such reactions.
