Top 11 Performances: Blake Lewis

I am loving Blake right now. Love the outfit. Love the song choice. Love the performance. Love it, love it, love it.

In this performance Blake manages to seamlessly integrate his beatboxing skills with very impressive vocals (he is singing high!), Yes, he sometimes gets a little bit away from the pitch, but Blake, like Simon said, found a way of making the song contemporary without screwing with the melody. In this competition, that's impressive.

And let me just put it out there...the boy is sexy. His moves are hot and he knows how to sell a song. He's got that "look" -- you know, the "look". And unlike previous "look"-sters Ace and Justin Guarini, you don't feel like you have to take a shower afterward.

Yeah, loving Blake.

I would just like to say that I am in LOVE with Blake! i think he is the whole package and epitomizes what an American Idol SHOULD be!..he's got the looks, the moves, the voice, and the special beat boxing talent..However, as much as I love him, i do not think that he will not win American Idol..my predictions are that he will be in the Top 4, along with Jordin (whom I also love!!!), LaKisha, and Melinda.

And just a thought on Sanjaya: He's really got to go now. I understand people want to be fans and they feel bad, but like Simon says all along, it is a singing competition and Sanjaya just does not have the talent. He is not up to par with the rest of his competitors and has to really go home tomorrow night!!

And also, I was very surprised at Haley's performance. It definitely was one of her best performances and she deserves to stay. And her legs are amazing!

Sanjaya really needs to go. He should have never made it into the top 24, let alone the top 12. Please spare us all if he continues on.

Please spare us all if Sanjaya makes it into another round. He really needs to go and needed to go a long long time ago.
