I have a feeling that Chris and Blake share many of the same young, voting fans. When Blake just totally outsings Chris it really hurts Chris.
How many weeks has Phil been in the bottom 3 now? Its like 3 in a row, right? That is a REALLY bad sign for him as your fanbase usually turns out big time the week after you are in the bottom 3 because they are worried you could be voted off. I think Phil needs a HUGE performance next week to stick around.
It was Haley's time-- for sure. She might be even worse than Sanjaya.
One last note, I was bothered by what they did to Sanjaya with Ryan asking him to stand up and sit down several times. Look, everyone knows Sanjaya is the butt of jokes in the outside world but I'd think the people on the show would at least treat him with a little bit of respect. The way I saw it, Ryan was mocking him. Way uncool.
I'll predict right now that Sanjaya sticks around at least 2 more weeks. He is building some serious sympathy vote support, I think, and he has been better the past couple weeks.
