Wake up, folks! It's all about the money the producers can make off the winner. They want a white guy to win; either Archuleta or Cook because they really haven't had a successful white male WINNER. Archuleta and Cook are more marketable than Johns in their eyes; Archuleta could be the next Clay and Cook the next Daughtry. We are all big dummies for thinking our votes "Count"; it's not like Price-Waterhouse audits the voting like at the Oscars; the producers can do whatever they feel like and they like messing with us all!!!

I agree w/alex i think something is in the works...its not april fools, he will be back on the show soon...i read on other sites that people were unable to vote.

Seacrest is a sadistic ass. His treatment of Michael Johns last night was disgusting and uncalled for.
April 11th, 2008 10:26 AM
The Best of the BEST is gone?? Come on, Michael Johns was THE reason to tune in, along side Carly & Brooke they all were SO Worth the watch.
Ya got these teeny boppers & whoever else are tone deaf voting & AI use to be fun, but it's rigged.
You won't find me or my Friends watching again......NOT W/O MICHAEL JOHNS!!!!
Maybe "Dream On" wasn't His Greatest Performances, but Every other one was Perfect.
The Judges I respect totally, however their opinion isn't qualified, that Kristi girl sang one song almost good & actually she should NEVER have even been in the Final 24!!
Michael NEVER imitated a Rock Star, He just is one & I certainly Hope He knows by all these Posts.....WE NEED HIM B A C K in Our Lives....ROCK ON MICHAEL!!~belle

Several people could have gone home last night and it wouldn't have been shocking, Syesha, Brook or Kristy!!! But Michael Johns!! No no no. He did not deserve to go. He's one of the best singers they have ever had. But he and Carly both had a bigass target on their backs, you can usually tell by judges comments who they want to stay and who they dont. And Ryan was beyond cruel with his reference to the year before, absolutely no need for that.
April 11th, 2008 10:33 AM
He totally should be in the top three if not two - I am not sure if i even want to watch the rest - it really make next week less exciting knowing he won't be there - if there were smart for ratings - they would bring him back - Have a special bring back show - I think a lot of people would watch that.

The talent is gone, and there is no reason to watch and see who the IDOL will be, Im sure i'll see it on Yahoo news or something. American Idol just ran out of GAS. and Ryan Got too Pompous.
April 11th, 2008 11:08 AM
Kristy is still on because of a combination of Vote For the Worst backing her and Johns' fans being so confident that they didn't vote.
In the future, AI has to limit votes cast per phone number, the way Dancing with the Stars does. That might kill Vote for the Worst.
This entire competition has become so twisted, it's definitely no longer a talent competition.
Ryan Seacrest's handling of the announcement last night was cruel and unnecessary. Did someone tell him to do that, or was that his stupid choice? Whatever the case, I'm done watching for the year. I stopped last year about this time, too.
Can we please be rid of Ryan, and change the voting system? Then perhaps the show won't continue to bore viewers or lose them altogether.
April 11th, 2008 11:26 AM
Michael is great, great, great. Beautiful, sexy, mature singing voice.
Love his stage presentation. He's right up there in image with Bruce Springsteen. And his version of the Dolly Parton song --- SPECTACULAR.
Please bring Michael back, or I won't watch idol any more, never, .
April 11th, 2008 11:46 AM
Why is everyone surprised? His song choice this week simply did not appeal to the voting demographic, (think young teenagers voting multiple times). This shows that a bad song and a kooky neck scarf can lead to disaster. He is most certainly talented, but who was he performing for? I hope the Irish lizard lady goes next.
April 11th, 2008 11:57 AM
This was WRONG!
The show begging for money, making us sit through almost 3 hours of boaring Tues. night, then to slap us in the face on Wed.
Michael Johns is a brilliant tallent and this was outrageous!
Ryan should be ashamed of himself for doing that to him. What kind of person would do that, it was beyone cruel.
I think they should bring Michael back on the show and Ryan should say how sorry he is for being the biggest jerk around.
April 11th, 2008 11:59 AM
I'm a braziliam guy and i not believe it! Michael im my country is a real star of american idol season 7. Its so sad! Crazy World!
April 11th, 2008 12:22 PM
I just can't believe it, MJ has gone, why He is the best singer, how others couldn't see it?, I won't watch AI anymore, please come back MJ
April 11th, 2008 12:28 PM
HOW DO WE EMAIL FOX?
Was this some kind of PLOY to increase ratings?
Could someone post the EMAIL ADDRESS for FOX? I tried to find it but had no luck.
Thanks.

I'M SHOCKED!! I Cannot watch AI anymore, when the two most unoriginal contestants, Brook, and David C are still there, and MIchael is gone, Micheal if your reading this, nowis your time to make this happen, you will be the biggest star.
April 11th, 2008 1:44 PM
You can look at it two ways:
1st. Controversy causes buzz buzz causes more hype, in a sick and twisted way returns more viewers to see what other drama will come out of the controversy.
2nd. Daughty being eliminated brought HUGE buzz and hype for his first release album (Daughtry). We all know Michael Johns is damn good, I wouldn't be shocked if this was a ploy to build up the hype like they did Chris.
In the end Idol is only selling themselves short and with these cheesy tactics will make the show less appealing each year.

I was a huge fan of American Idol.. following it for years. The show is not a talent contest but a POPULARITY CONTEST. I will now only watch the auditions segments of the show and not the top 12. It is a waste of time since AMERICA can't get it right. I think its time to let America choose the bottom three and let the judges have the final vote. Kristy, Jason, or Brooke deserved to go home last night. Michael Johns is a very talented guy and of course he'll get signed. But the point if if America can't choose the best.. how the hell are they gonna choose a president?!?!?!
April 11th, 2008 2:39 PM
Really, I can't believe that he, out of all the others who should've been kicked out of the show a long time ago, was eliminated. It was just like a major shock. This show is messeduppp =/
April 11th, 2008 2:45 PM
I know there's a lot of wailing over American Idol's latest elimination, but honestly? I'm not too surprised. Michael John's performance was, to me, forgettable. I don't even remember what he sang. Michael John is a good guy and a solid singer, but he doesn't have that star quality that makes him stand out from the crowd. I was never a big fan - actually I usually forgot he was in the competition. I find singers such as Carly and Sayesha more entertaining simply because they seem to have a personality. Hey, they make mistakes, but at least there's a bit of a theme behind their song choices, not just some random "pick here pick there".
I know many of you will disagree with me, but please remember it's only an opinion. I noticed the last comment mentions that AI has turned into a popularity contest, which is partly true, but can also be explained. Carrie Underwood is an amazing singer, which is, of course, why she one. But if she had talked back to the judges, or demonstrated an attitude, I doubt she would have the title she has today.
Basically, no matter what the judges say, it's more than just singing. It's about having a personality and the ability to choose the right songs. It's about being memorable, which is harsh, but true.
So I say, American Idol should keep on doing what it's doing. Hopefully, America will get it right.

I cant belive this happend .poor Micheal not only did he get capture the audence but he was also so hot!The way Ryan said it was terible!He was my favorite .comeon america if we all band together we can get him back .Pleas email FOX.Stop sitting here on your buts writing to comment boards when you should be writing them to FOX.
April 11th, 2008 2:58 PM
These better not make it in the top 5!
8 - Kristi Lee
7 - Brooke
6 - Jason
Their vocal range suck! Ramiel can sing better than them. As far as Michael Johns I really thought he'd sail through the top 5 easy...o well - AI voters sucks anyway - it's all about favorites & good looks not talent.
April 11th, 2008 2:59 PM
Im outraged I was not as angry when they messed up and elimanated chris daughtry, but this has gone to far.micheal was a truly inspiring contestant, who captured my heart .and yours but if we really want the showthat he was on american idol,then we must take action we can start by leaving comments to fox but if we dont do anything we must boycot by stop watching AI. TAKE ACTION AMERICA
April 11th, 2008 5:17 PM
Just stop watching already. After the past few years it's hard to believe so many still watch. I mean, just look at last year, Good Lord what was Sanjaya?
The only just thing to do would be to fire Ryan Seacrest and give his job to Michael John.
April 11th, 2008 5:30 PM
AI is rigged - They are only in it to sell CD's Michael Johns did not fit the mold - Too old for them.
I think Michael Johns was the best - I can't stand David Cook, I don't know what anyone sees in him - It is definitly rigged.
The only thing Simon could say was" it was a bad song choice" - No Way!!! That is all he could say - He had to say something- They told him to say that.
