Classic American Idol
American Idol did it again.
Towards the end of the broadcast, the traditional recap of performances was shown. The funny thing is that the recap of Jordin’s last performance wasn’t really a replay of her last performance.
Got that? American Idol must have pre-recorded the recaps or something.
It was obvious since Jordin was in tears at the end of the televised final performance but yet during the recap there was nary a tear.
Maybe I’m just upset because I think Blake should win and that all Jordin can do is screech..

I read that there is always a “rehearsal” round before the live telecast of Idol performances. Usually the last recap is taken from the rehearsal ‘cuz there isn’t much time to edit the last performance.
Yeah, it is obvious that the song suited Jordin more. I wish they could have written a separate song for Blake. They both have their own singing style and shouldn’t be given the same song to battle. Blake is not a ballad guy, everyone knows that. It’s kinda not fair. But I am still happy if either wins. Blake doesn’t need the crown to sell his albums. He already has everything to start recording.

Yeah, but in this case, I do think that it’s not fair since Jordin screwed the ending by crying and the recaps didn’t show that.
The same song definitely put Blake at a disadvantage.
Ever since Ryan Seacrest publicly stated that he thought Jordin would win (a few months ago), I’ve sensed a bias toward her from the judges - Randy especially and Paula to an extent.
