i can't believe this happened! oh my goodness! oh my word! oh man!!! i'm in COMPLETE shock over myself - jumping from jordin sparks' camp over to blake lewis' after watching the final performances tonight on american idol! there was much heavy debate & thought taking place in popbytes' humble hollywood abode (oh yes - mixed w/ a few glasses of red wine) i think blake nailed the title tonight - especially with his first performance - that cover of bon jovi's killer song you give love a bad name! i didn't just vote once - i voted multiple times!
i do think our dear jordin sparks nailed the song at the end but damn that's a horrible song...this is my now?!? please it's more like 'this is my ass' - plus it sounded just like the past idol anthems - oh i fucking hated it - what a cheesy song! i simply can't imagine mr. lewis releasing that as a single on the radio - they need to release the bon jovi cover! i really do like them both but after all was sang & done tonight - i truly believe blake will become our next american idol tomorrow evening! (plus i wouldn't mind making out with him - jordin is cute but she's not really my type - ha!)
jordin sparks is a great singer but overall he's way more interesting & unique - i have to be honest - it's totally true! i still cannot get over the fact i switched sides tonight but i did say today at work that i really wanted to see who could bring it tonight - and right here & now i'm all for blake lewis! popbytes over & out for now...xxoo!
PS it doesn't even matter who wins the show - just take a look at lame ass 'winner' taylor hicks vs hottie chris daughtry!
is blake sporting a woody standing next to seacrest?

Ok, I agree that Blake did awesome with "You Give Love A Bad Name" but the other 2 songs were terrible and nasaly. Another Maroon 5 song, come on, he should just release, "Blake Lewis Sings Maroon 5," and the last song was just painful to watch.

I agree with you on Blake and I'm glad you switched sides!! Jordan is a doll and has a great voice, but c'mon....do ya really want to buy a CD filled with songs like "This is My Now???" That song licks serious ass and I resent that Idol closed the show with that crappy tune. Enough already! It's unfair to the contestants to make them sing those cheeseball ballads like in the finals when you have two contestants with two opposite styles. The song shouldn't be suited for one person more than the other. Anyway, I thought Blake's first two performances were great (I can't get enough of him doing Bon Jovi), his voice sounded good, but the arrangement of the Maroon 5 song was horrid with the lyrics being switched around all over the place. I'm not going to even bring his performance of the final balad into play because as we said, the song sucked and he did the best he could for what he was given. Jordan was just aiiight, i thought her first two performances were very weak--hello? why did she sing "Fighter?" That performance alone showed she is not cut out to be the next Christina Aguilara or Kelly Clarkson for that matter. She did a decent job on the horrible "This is My Now," but like I said before, no matter how well she hit all the notes or what not, who the hell would want to even buy that song?
And oh yeah, Daughtry was the best thing about the night.
Thank you and have a nice day.

You made the right decision!
But I've gotta go with Taylor over Chris "eyeshadow" Daughtry....that was scary.
