IDOL LIVE predix: Top 9 Results [Pt. 2]

The music of Elvis Presley was alive and well at CBS Studios in Hollywood last night, which was actually a nice change for this season. Even though Adam Lambert didn't deserve to be the Top 9's mentor, he met expectations and was able to actually give targeted advice to some of them (whether or not they took the advice was another issue).

With that said, read my predictions for how tonight will go below:

Bottom 3
Katie, Andrew, Tim

Eliminated (9th)
Andrew

Eliminated (8th)
Tim

If all goes according to plan, tonight should be fairly easy to call. A predictable bottom three of Katie, Andrew and Tim should be in store (even though Katie and Tim were too good to be grouped with Aaron based on last night's performances). While Katie will merely be subjected to another scare after having a stress-free week, she shouldn't sweat it just yet.

Andrew on the other hand should finally bite the dust tonight, as he was just inches away from exiting last week, and he delivered another underwhelming showing last night, with nowhere to go but up or out. By ditching the guitar and opting to go on a world tour around the Idol stage, he showed that with nothing but a mic in his hands, he really can't hold a candle (figuratively, anyway) to his peers.

And then there's Tim, who actually surprised a lot of people these past two weeks. He will probably finish in eighth because his fans will have assumed he was safe and that Aaron was in danger (whom many of them also like) so if they didn't waste the rest of their night watching Glee, they probably dedicated it to helping Aaron out. Therefore, Tim will be the "shocker" that really wasn't a shocker, and even though his time shouldn't be up yet considering others that are still on the show aren't nearly as much fun, he can look back and say he went out on a high note.

In my original predictions I have Aaron and leaving in ninth-place (just like I did last week) and Lee leaving in eighth-place, so I probably won't be right on either count but hey, why start winning now?

Since the Top 24 I have correctly predicted 5-15 eliminations and since the Top 12 I have correctly predicted 1-3 eliminations.
