In the final round of IDOL LIVE's poll of the week champion series, David Archuleta reigned supreme as the preferred finalist of all time, just like he has done in the past.
After trouncing his peers in the runner-up competition four weeks ago, Arch once again demolishes the field here, earning 745 of the 820 votes cast, or 90%. The only other contender who finished with a respectable total was Carrie Underwood, who had 58 votes (7%).
The fact that six finalists failed to receive a single vote says a lot about the people who voted to get them into the finale round.
To all of you who have cast votes in the champion series rounds over the past few months, thank you very much for your efforts!
Carrie Underwood 58 (7%)
David Archuleta 745 (90%)
Melinda Doolittle 1 (0%)

Poll of the week: Arch still favorite contestant in 'Idol' history
Thursday, August 19, 2010
Poll of the week: Melinda does a little to earn recognition among fans
In one of the last few rounds of IDOL LIVE's poll of the week champion series for 2010, one 3rd-place finalist edged out her peers in a fairly close battle.
Melinda Doolittle's 12 votes were enough to earn her 29% of all 41 votes cast, which was the largest take of all nine participants included in this round. The sixth season's second-runner-up saw her closest competition come from Elliott Yamin, who garnered nine votes (21%), followed by Danny Gokey's seven votes (17%).
There were only two finalists who failed to grab any votes during the course of the week, as Nikki McKibbin (Season 1) and Vonzell Solomon (Season 4) went scoreless in their attempts.
In the next round (the third-to-last, by the way), readers will be asked which runner-up is their favorite of all nine seasons. Voting will be open for exactly one week.
Nikki McKibbin 0 (0%)
Kimberley Locke 2 (4%)
Jasmine Trias 2 (4%)
Vonzell Solomon 0 (0%)
Elliott Yamin 9 (21%)
Melinda Doolittle 12 (29%)
Syesha Mercado 4 (9%)
Danny Gokey 7 (17%)
Casey James 5 (12%)
Total votes: 41

Flashback: LaKisha Jones' "Run to Me"
The Top 4 in Season 6 of Idol was basically the opposite of the Top 4 in Season 9, as LaKisha Jones led a strong contingent of three female vocalists to one unique guy. Over the course of her run on the show, LaKisha delivered many memorable performances, but by the time she reached Top 4 she seemed to lose steam. Watch one of her two performances from Bee Gees night, "Run to Me," below:
This was obviously not one of LaKisha's performing highlights, but she still showed why she was such a contender at the outset of the season. Her elimination, although not as shocking as the elimination of Melinda Doolittle the following week, was still disappointing.

IDOL LIVE Blog - Top 5 Results (5/5/10)
Before the night is through, we will have our final four contestants of Idol's ninth season. Can't you feel the excitement? Regardless of what you thought of last night's performances, it shouldn't be taken for granted that they were at least given a knowledgeable mentor to help guide them through Frank Sinatra's catalog of songs in the form of Harry Connick Jr. (I'm talking to you, Miley Cyrus).
In terms of guest performers, other than HCJ we get to look forward to a high profile, over the top showing by none other than Lady Gaga. She will perform her new single "Alejandro."
To see who I predict will be leaving tonight, see here. And as usual, please feel free to add your two cents throughout the one-hour blogcast. Coverage starts just prior to 9 p.m. ET.
Tonight's blogcast features the music of Kady Malloy, Kelly Clarkson, Melinda Doolittle, Michael Johns and Ruben Studdard.

IDOL LIVE Blog - Top 11 Results (3/24/10)
Last night's exhibition of Billboard No. 1s was extraordinarily boring, but at least it wasn't bad. Therefore, tonight we will most likely see an expected boot because it's still too early in the season for a shocker.
At least we get to look forward to Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato and Joe Jonas as our featured guest performers. Oh wait...
To see who I predict will be leaving tonight, see here. Please feel free to add your two cents throughout the two-hour blogcast, with coverage starting just prior to 9 p.m. ET.

IDOL LIVE Blog - Top 10 Girls Perform (3/3/10)
Tonight we blog during the Top 10 female semifinalists' performances, which will have to work hard to be worse than last week's offerings. Considering neither of the girls that went last week were unexpected, tonight should go a little smoother and should feel lighter with less voices needing to be packed in together. Hopefully Crystal will be well enough to perform.
Please feel free to add your input throughout the two-hour blogcast, with coverage starting just prior to 8 p.m. ET.
Tonight's blogcast features the music of Antonella Barba, Carly Smithson, Carrie Underwood, Jordin Sparks, Katharine McPhee, Kellie Pickler, Kelly Clarkson, LaKisha Jones, Megan Joy and Melinda Doolittle.
HITS predix: Danny Gokey's 'My Best Days' to debut with 45-50k
With a performance on Idol's results show Thursday in the cards, HITS Daily Double is predicting Danny Gokey's debut album My Best Days to open with numbers between 45-50k. This would put his debut opening week sales below releases from fellow third-place finalists Elliott Yamin (Elliott Yamin, 90k), but ahead of season-mate Allison Iraheta (Just Like You, 32k) and Melinda Doolittle (Coming Back to You, 10.9k) (no numbers were available for Kimberley Locke's debut One Love).
This figure are fairly close to my original prediction of 43k copies. Be sure to be back here next week when Billboard will (hopefully) have final sales data available.

Flashback: Alaina Alexander's "Not Ready to Make Nice"
Alaina Alexander was one of the promising female vocalists in the early rounds of Idol's sixth season, but something happened to her during the semifinals that caused her to falter in a big way. After a less than exceptional showing during Top 24 week, Alaina struggled through the Dixie Chicks' "Not Ready to Make Nice" in Top 20 week. Re-watch the performance below:
This pitchy performance is ultimately what lost Alaina her shot at making it far in the competition, but she probably never had a great shot out outlasting some of the more powerful vocalists in her season like Jordin Sparks and Melinda Doolittle.

Alums tweet their thoughts on Kanye-Swiftgate
So by now everyone has seen or at least hard about the drama that went down onstage between Taylor Swift and Kanye West at MTV's Video Music Awards this evening.

Melinda Doolittle & Bo Bice talk Paula on 'Today'
Two Idol alums appeared on the Saturday edition of NBC's Today Show to discuss the departure of Paula Abdul as a judge. Melinda Doolittle contributed via satellite hookup from Nashville, Tenn., while Bo Bice chimed in from Pelham, Ala. Watch the segment below:
Melinda called Paula the "momma of the show" and "the heart of it" for her. Bo said he was a little bit shocked, but more surprised and that when Kara DioGuardi entered the picture a lot of people had questions about what the composure of the judges would be.

Poll of the week: Syesha's fans put the "yes" in her name

'Idol' odds 'n ends: 'Idol' scores two Emmy noms
The following are Idol-related odds and ends that happened this week:
>The nominations for the 61st Emmy Awards were yesterday morning announced in Los Angeles, and Idol once again was nominated in the "Outstanding Reality-Competition Program" category alongside Dancing with the Stars, Top Chef and, of course, The Amazing Race. This is the series' seventh nomination since the category was introduced in 2003.
Ryan Seacrest also received a nom for "Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality-Competition Program." The category is in its second year after being awarded to Survivor's Jeff Probst last year. The Emmys will air at 8 p.m. ET on CBS on Sun., Sept. 20.
>Melinda Doolittle saw her exclusive dance remix EP of her single "It's Your Love" quietly released to iTunes on Tuesday, as it was overshadowed by major Idol releases from Daughtry and Brooke White. Per Melinda's official newsletter that alerted fans to the news:The soulful and moving song "It's Your Love" gets reworked by some of the hottest remixers/DJs in the world, including Jason Nevins, Mike Rizzo, and Smashmode, to create a pulsating rendition of the song that will be sure to get everyone out of their seats. The EP features three club versions of each track, as well as two radio remixes and a free bonus copy of the original music video for the song.
The newsletter also stated that the radio remix done by Jason Nevins will be sent to Top 40 radio at the end of July.
>Playbill.com announced that Diana DeGarmo will be joining the cast of the off-Broadway musical The Toxic Avenger on Fri., Aug. 14. In a statement, Diana said the following of the show:"I am so excited to be coming back to New York to join the cast of The Toxic Avenger. When I saw the show, I laughed my head off. I can’t wait to start rehearsal – and to be blonde again!"
Diana will star as Sarah, a "sexy blind librarian" for at least three months. The show plays at New World Stages in Manhattan.
>SketchedOutTV.com, the ridiculous brainchild of Justin Guarini and Shaun Ingram, had its latest vlog posted yesterday. The vlog, titled "Sketchy Blog #3," features Justin and Shaun talking about putting our fires and something about a fish. Watch the vlog below:
A GIF of a pad of paper tackling a pair of scissors talking to two girls titled "Pad's Revenge!" was also posted. Who needs to sing for a living when you can post this kind of stuff on the net?
>Kris Allen will no longer be performing his atrocious "corny-n"ation song "No Boundaries" on the "Idols Live!" tour. According to an article posted on LATimesBlogs.com's "'Idol' Tracker":
Reviews of Season 8's finale show widely trashed the victory number and the chilly reception has followed "Boundaries" onto the road. In reviews of the tour, "Boundaries" has been singled out as a misstep, generating a tepid crowd response compared with the other numbers.The song that Kris has chosen to replace "No Boundaries" is The Killers' "All These Things That I've Done," which he premiered at the Sacramento show on Fri., July 10. Watch the performance below:
The tour's producers have been listening to the sound of few hands clapping. Starting tonight in Sacramento, "No Boundaries" will be disappear from Allen's set, according to sources with the production.
The tour will next stop in Ontario, Canada, where the Top 10 finalists will perform at the Citizens Business Bank Arena.

Melinda Doolittle talks with Allison following her boot
Melinda Doolittle had a very good day up in Beantown. When she appeared on the FOX 25 Morning News to perform "It's Your Love," little did the she know she would get to speak with Allison via satellite as the newly cast-off finalist made the rounds of her numerous remote affiliate interviews. Watch the clip below:
Melinda, who is a huge Allison fan, blogged about the impromptu experience:
I woke up early this morning to do the FOX morning show in Boston. For the record, I'm not a morning person and I REALLY cannot hide my lisp before 10am, but I digress...
I went to talk about my record ("Coming Back To You" in stores and online now!) and about receiving an Exceptional Woman Award tomorrow, but little did I know the visit would change my life! (Yes, I'm aware that I'm dramatic)
The station was asking me whether I wanted to sing my 2nd song before or after a satellite interview they were about to do. Then, when they heard me lament over Allison's departure, they told me that the interview was with her and they would love for me to join them. DUDE! I screamed and then promptly dropped my mic and went straight over to talk to her. Now, I was SO excited to be seeing her and telling her how much I loved her, that I don't remember much...but I do know that I was able to tell her how awesome it is afterwards and how many great things I knew would come her way. Oh! and how much fun she would have on the tour.
Talk about an incredible opportunity for Melinda (and Allison).
Melinda is currently in Boston for the annual "Exceptional Women Awards," where she will be honored tomorrow in the "Rising Star" category presented by Magic 106.7 FM. The ceremony will take place at the Westin Copley Place from noon to 2 p.m. in Boston.

IDOL LIVE predix: Top 5 Results
Nothing will come as a shock tonight when a finalist that should have exited the competition two weeks ago finally goes home in fifth place. Even though the producers (and Ryan) will try to hype up the notion that anyone that goes tonight will come as a "shock," there will be no such thing.
The predictability factor will be out in force for tonight's results:
Bottom 3
Allison, Kris, Matt
Bottom 2
Kris, Matt
Eliminated
Matt
Matt really has done the best job possible all things considering, and he was able to deliver a very strong performance last night in a week that was really his to shine during. That said, he has gone as far as possible considering the major competition he has been paired with, and will gracefully bow out with a reprise of "My Funny Valentine."
Things that are working against Matt are the finite possibilities of who can go home at this point, the fact that he chose a song that was basically already perfected by two finalists on this show (Melinda Doolittle in Season 6 and Constantine Maroulis in Season 4) and most importantly Simon's shenanigans with his good old reverse psychology.
As for the finalists that will receive a wake up call tonight, Kris will certainly be one, joining Matt in the Bottom 2. If there is a Bottom 3 formulated from this crop of five, it would have to be Allison that fulfills the spot, but Ryan will most likely skip ahead to the B2 in order to create a sense of suspense.
In my original predictions, I had Allison leaving tonight, but even though that technically could still happen, I really do think Matt's time has come to a close for the final time. But of course, there is only one way to find out whether or not this commonly held prediction comes true tonight.
About last night: A pack of rats and a Foxx deliver
The debacles from the events over the past few days were looking to put a damper on last night's catalog of songs from the Rat Pack era, but everything seemed to fall in place by the time 8 p.m. ET rolled around. There was not one bad performance, even though the Top 5 finalists had to scramble last minute and drop one of the two songs they had been rehearsing in order to ensure there were no time overruns. And Jamie Foxx actually gave some good tips despite having to deal with negative perceptions going into tonight.
After Foxx's lengthy intro montage and his "surprise" unveiling to the finalists was shown, Kris took the stage and did a subdued but smooth rendition of Frank Sinatra's staple "The Way You Look Tonight." Kris' vocals were a little bit better than usual, but it's fair to say they were consistent and the use of his falsetto enhanced the overall result. Simon's critique of the performance being "wet" may or may not resonate with the voting public, but it is quite apparent that the other three judges thought highly of it. What could end up hurting Kris is the fact that he went first, which seems like it would be a non-factor this late in the season, but it is always a possibility.
Following Kris was Allison, who looked a lot more mature and sounded years beyond her age, even more so than usual. She sang Ella Fitzgerald's "Someone to Watch Over Me" with grace and poise, proving that even the rocker chick can simmer down for enough time to show that she is capable of delivering heartfelt low key showcases. Allison was also able to get a few Christina Aguilera-isms in and even belted out the last few notes. Her performance was a few notches better than Simon's weak 7 out of 10 score, and Kara let him know he was "crazy" for his critique since she was so sure that Allison is not a one-trick pony and that she didn't need anyone watching over her last night.
More importantly than any of her critiques, Allison truly looked like a contender regardless of Simon's questioning of how badly she wants to win it. This should be enough to keep her out of trouble tonight.
Someone who had his name written all over last night's theme was Matt, as he is a jazz music major at Michigan State. That being said, he did not do the best with his rendition of "My Funny Valentine," which was made famous on this show by Melinda Doolittle on its sixth season. Matt was his regular self with hat and all, but his lack of piano playing was actually missed a bit last night. Still, his vocals on the classic standard were among his best yet, which was noticed by Simon.
The deal with Simon, however, is that he was using his signature reverse psychology on Matt, which will be realized by the majority of the public when tonight's results are read. It's true that Matt deserved some praise for his efforts, but Simon was the noticeable sore thumb sticking out among the rest of the judges with the exception of Paula, who gave her usual dribble drabble about seeing a "pure and simple side" of Matt. Randy and Kara were actually dead on when they noticed a lack of emotion and connection to the song, and these comments will ring true once things become more clear tonight.
Danny, on the other hand, came out and gave the performance of his life with "Come Rain or Come Shine," which he needed to do in order to revitalize his chances for the title. Danny started off in his usual rhythm and blues mantra, but near the end he really came alive despite incorporating his usual growls into the otherwise smooth vocal performance. It was not a surprise that the judges raved about the showing, and even Simon's comments about Danny finding his confidence and agreeing with Kara that he had swagger seemed appropriate. Even though he did not get the coveted pimp spot, Danny showed that he could still deliver despite the assertion that his Idol star has waned over the past few weeks.
And then there was Adam, who really wore his theatrics on his sleeve with an over the top take on Nina Simone's "Feeling Good." The performance fit Adam to a T, and was definitely a sight to see with a dramatic descension of the staircase lit in hot pink florescent lights. The vocals were a bit too much, though he had a great note near the end that has seemed to be lacking from the current season of Idol. There was a time when the glory note was considered the cherry on top of a performance, but it has since fallen from popularity.
As usual, the judges had no qualms about Adam's showing, and Simon's "a cow moos" comment injected some humor into the critiques. It goes without saying that Adam is not going anywhere tonight.
After looking back at last night's performances, it can be said that this was perhaps the best performance episode of the season, with no one being so blatantly bad that they warrant a ticket home. Someone does have to go, however, and it will probably be another obvious boot. But just to cover all the bases, there have been stranger things to happen on this show.
One last note: Jamie Foxx was actually a more effective mentor than many thought he would be. There were times when his advice made a lot of sense and he seemed to care about what he was saying to the contestants, even though he probably did not mean much of it. He's still not a nice person, but whatever.

IDOL LIVE Blog: Top 7 Perform (4/14/09)
Join us tonight as we blog during the Top 7 finalists' performances for the "Songs of the Cinema" theme. It's a good bet someone will sing a Disney-related tune, maybe Allison will do Miley Cyrus' "The Climb"? That would be interesting. In any event, the blogcast will last one hour and will begin promptly at 8 p.m. ET. Oh yeah, and we'll have to sit through Quentin Tarantino and his eccentricness when he serves as mentor this week. Joy.
Tonight's blogcast will feature music from David Cook, Melinda Doolittle, Leona Lewis, Amanda Overmyer and Jason Yeager.
