Carly Smithson Expresses Shock Over Michael Johns Elimination

by at .

The look on the face of Carly Smithson below says it all:

No Effin Way!!!!

That was the general reaction of all American Idol viewers last night, when it was announced that Michael Johns had somehow been eliminated.

As he sang his farewell song, the other finalists stood and clapped for their fallen Idol. Johns then moved from the stage to the platform behind the judges to be closer to the audience.

Earlier in the night, Simon Cowell had spoken for us all when he said: "I'm going to miss you. You're a very good singer and a very, very nice guy."

Will you miss Michael Johns on the show?

    I am still bummed out about your departure. You have a bight future ahead of you. You are going to be a legend, a household name, just like Elvis. I was there watching him on the Ed Sullivan Show, just like watchinjg you on television now. You have got a hold on me. Going to buy all your albums and videos, for all my friends and family and me. Hope to see you in Minneapolis. Jeanette xoxoxo

    I have maintained for years that everything about this show is "fixed" by the producers. Since they are committed to signing the winner, they want to insure their choice wins. In this case, I believe they want David Cook to win because of his similarity to Daughtry, and because of Daughtry's success. With MJ also being a rocker they were afraid that splitting votes between those two contestants could result in Cook's untimely elimination, so they conveniently arrange for MJ's early dismissal. -- MJ does have better vocal skills, but Cook's vocal skills are pretty good, and his musicianship (arrangements, creativity, etc.) are better, and his musical style is more contemporary. From an exec's point of view, Cook is a better commercial package.
