LINKNow there are 20. American Idol booted four contestants Thursday night — two men and two women — in the show's first elimination round of the new season.
Television's top-rated show tallied viewers' votes and scratched off the bottom two of each sex — Becky O'Donohue, Stevie Scott, Bobby Bennett and Patrick Hall.
You know, the talent level this year is REALLY high. I thought that Becky, Stevie, and especially Patrick were quite good, and yet they were eliminated. I personally would've preferred seeing these 3 contestants stay on longer, especially Patrick... I really liked his performance. But it's going to be SO tough, especially after the top 12 are chosen... I'm actually not only feeling sorry for the contestants, but for the VOTERS too! Lol I was actually rooting for like 20 contestants on the top 24 performance nights!
Yep - lots of good ones, but I still loves me some ACE! :yahoo:
Think I'll go look at some pics and go all glassy-eyed! :wub:
