American Idol Sets Final 12, Sends Four Packing
by Hilton Hater at .American Idol revealed its 12 season nine finalists last night, eliminating four contestants in the process.
Two of those eliminations were easy to see coming: We'd have gone with Paige Miles and Tim Urban instead, but it's hard to argue with viewers sending Katelyn Epperly (the weakest of this season's singer/songwriters) and Todrick Hall (more of a dancer than a singer) home.
But Lilly Scott and Alex Lambert? Wow. The lessons future contestants can take from these semifinalists would be: don't only sing songs from previous decades; and get over your stage fright.
We wish all booted contestants the best, but it's now time to focus on those remaining. We're not down to the top 12, and we've listed them below, from most likely to win to least likely...
- Crystal Bowersox
- Siobhan Magnus
- Casey James
- Michael Lynche
- Didi Benami
- Lee DeWyze
- Andrew Garcia
- Paige Miles
- Aaron Kelly
- Katie Stevens
- Lacey Brown
- Tim Urban
There's a big drop-off after the top four, as two women and two men really stand out. Do you agree?
Who would you have sent home and who do you consider the favorite?

SIOBHAN.. AI 2010
i like tim because he is cute, but i always feel sad whenever i think that alex lambert was sent home and tim stays? seriously the show is not for good looking people. it is for talented people with a very great voice so maybe tim urban should just take ellen's advice. to the girl's, yeah i am very sad that lily goes home she is unique, no one on american idol ever can be compared to her voice i would like katie stevens to go home than lily. poor lily and alex. america doesn't know what great talents they've been loosing well i hope that the producers of the show will do something about it. i want to hear lily scott and alex lambert more! i hope they will have a career after this i am betting know on siobhan and didi(girls) and big mike and lee (boys)
""Kelley...."use your brain".... Alex is much better than Tim...."" yeah!!...they looking is talented and originality... not looking beauty!!! i will miss alex...:( i will miss he's voice...very much! ...now my only favorite is mike
