Yes, you can include wildcard people, but who are your top three so far?
The Fuscia List
1. Lisa Leuschner
2. Katie Webber
3. tie between Matt Rogers and John Stevens
Lisa has the best voice in my opinion, but she has image problems. Katie was the whole package. Matt was an awesome performer and John has a unique voice.
Hica, I know that you too are sad that Michael was not brought back. I truly believe his time will come. Thanks for posting your top 3. Heck, it still could be a fun show to watch.

We'll see about that. The only other people I kinda liked are Elizabeth and Katie. The only thing making me think of continuing to watch is if either one of those two or both stay on the show. The other people's performances just don't really do much for me. Not as exciting for me.
I so want him to do well that it is clouding my judgement. I watched John interact with the group last night, in the little on stage celebration at the end ? The fact is -- he didn't seem to be able to interact -- not comfortable in his skin.
It looked like a few of the 12 try to pull him in to inlclude him and soon moved away from him as he seemed to not know what to do and how to participate. He's so young !
Then there's my home girl:
Jennifer Hudson
You all know I have liked Jenn from the beginning and I am really glad she's in. I would love to see her and John as the final two. I think she will give LaToya a run. She has a way to go -- especially in the wardrobe department. She's this year's voice with the lack of fashion style and the weird facial expressions.
SO
At this point, I feel ( note I said "feel" and haven't really asserted a darn thing ) that these two have the voices to go the distance. I am not clear on their versatility and I haven't seen the twinkle that is needed.
That being said, at this stage I could just shuffle the rest of the deck, if you understand.
So until next week, I'll go this way reserving the right to re-shuffle, cut and deal again.
* John Stevens
* Jennifer Hudson
* Latoya London: Brings a great voice and stage experience. A lot of polish but sans personality.
- Jon Peter Lewis: I do like Jon's voice, kind of low-rumbley ? He is the group jester, which I think is his little protective facade and he's another facial mugger. I hope he focuses more on delivering with his voice rather than the antics. As Randy said to him -- "you can sing dawg" -- so just sing, Jon.
- Jasmine Trias: Our Hawaiin flower girl. She's a little simpering for me. Good voice .. good enough ? Need more performance and less flower focus. ( She better not be hugging Jon P again or the jealous girly's will vote her off.)
- Matt Rogers: Brings an nice acceptable voice with some warmth, verve and an easy way about him. More will be expected of him, but he has the ability to get around that Group 2 curse. Matt is this season's teddy bear. Not a velvet one, just rag-tag and well hugged.
- Diana DeGarmo: What I remember is a good enough voice and that she brought spark and exuded confidence. Her beauty pageant experience serves her well.
- George Huff: Very nice voice, and note to Simon: I happen to like the Temptations ! George has been Mr. Joyful, Mr. Eager and the Underdog. Now he is no longer the underdog -- everything is even-up !
- Amy Adams: I like this girl -- if only she looked like a girl. She sings/performs really well, but I think she needs to somehow soften her look because she looks old, and that might hurt her in this mix ... really.
- Leah LaBelle: What a little beauty and a wonderful performance in her group -- but after the declines, I am really worried about her longevity in this competion.
- Camile Velasco: The quiet one with the Group 2 curse to hurdle, that is ... being the best of the worst group. She too needs to open up or she's history. She is the only one of the 8 who was not handed the mic last night.
- Fantasia Barrino: Since Group 1, there are others more memorable than Fannie, and her attitude just has to go.

First off, hello all. I must say, the first night the finalist selection began, the very first performance, the very first person to make it to the finalists, Diana Degarmo completely blew me away. I pick her to win and who cares about the rest of them. She brought it and made it look effortless. If I had to pick two more for the last... I believe Latoya will be runner up. She was awesome too but not like Diana. Third, will have to be a tie between George and the kid, what's his name? yeah, John Stevens.
My top 3...umm....I guess Michael Keown doesn't count anymore......=(...
hmmm...
1. Latoya London
2. Diana Degarmo
3. he's not my favourite but I personally think he will make it to atl east top 3...after all he was the people's choice in the Wildcards..but Jon Peter Louis....but I would really like Geroge Huff to be in the top 3...
