A guy I don't recognize anymore

I question the wisdom of Melinder showing up wearing a top that reads "Death Cheater." It could be worse--she could be wearing a complex system of polyester slings and pulleys:

Sling Boobs

I didn't even dress my Barbies that bad.

OMG Elliott is here! Tonight! I will get to see his new teeth in action. I'm giddy.

The crappy Blake visual similarities to not crappy Mike Viola (pointed out here by the genius who knows) are really rather chilling. I can't stop seeing that. Even if maybe it's like if Mike and Todd had a baby (and that baby somehow sucked)? It's creepy! I'm totally creeped out!!!

If we see Blake at a hometown ballgame in the Final 3 just like we saw Elliott at a hometown ballgame in the Final 3, does that mean Blake gets canned too? Can we be so lucky?

Elliott
Speaking of which, here is Elliott and his badass heavily conditioned Jewfro and gigantic new fake white teeth! His new teeth are too dang white and gigantic. Hahahaha, Chris compares this to Craig David, which is incidentally the highest praise he can give anything remotely pop/R&B, as far as I know. Ugh, those teeth though. Oh, he's talking and he's still so cute and adorable. Aww, look at that. OK, now maybe he's a little too chatty. It's nice to know someone wrote that song you just sang. Yes. OK. OooooK. OK, now it's over. Bye now!

Ryan was so happy to see Elliott, whom he calls "a guy I don't recognize anymore." So happy to be onstage next to a dude that is so, so much shorter than he is.

I had no idea "Everybody Wants You" could sound so lifeless, but the AI-Ford music video makes that possible. This makes THE NEW CW version sound like Shonen Knife.

I may be totally off-base, but Melinda seems like a nice lady.

That dude from Maroon 5 is like if Leo Sayer, Christian Bale and this dude had a baby. Tonight is a wonderful night for dudes having babies with each other. Chris wonders if this is a Scissor Sisters cover. And you know, you kind of have to really think hard before you can answer that question definitively. I love how that dude from Maroon 5 LEAPS into Ryan's waiting embrace after they're done. Seriously, who wouldn't?

Oh man, the show's almost over. Having Chris around makes this show so much more entertaining. Hahaha, I said that just when he walked into the room with a giant bag full of giant pork rinds.

Ai07 Melinda
Ah well, no surprise. Gracious and smiley in defeat, just like Elliott was. And as Chris has just pointed out, her teeth did her in as well. Let tonight be your cautionary tale: Don't fix 'em! And burn that top that reads "Death Cheater." Your outfits conspired against you. And won.

Yes yes! A Mike and Todd baby. That is it exactly.

I was doing many other things during "American Idol" and totally missed this Ford video, but when I read "Everybody Wants You" I thought of the Sloan song (is that even what it's called?) and I wondered, "What do you mean? It sounded lifeless to begin with." "I hope nobody heeeeeeaaaaarrs!" PS Now it is stuck in my head.
