Hopefully this will create a growing pro-active support for Paulini and a deliberate backlash against Rob.
But Paulini in the bottom 3 is so unbelievable that it almost feels like a deliberate attempt by the show to create surprise and drama for more interesting TV.
(Excuse the conspiracy theory, but I just watched South Park.)

Levi and his brother are close mate, I don't see it as a promotion. "Lethbridge"(The Kereama brothers) perform the songs that Levi has sung throughout the competition, and it showed a huge respect to his brother.
His brother(Jules) incedently missed out on Idol as he was too old, but the judges already had accepted him, but as said before, knocked back due to age.

I think Levi needed that support from his brother since Mark Holden was so tacky and cruel and mean.

I was absolutely discgusted with how australia voted. Australia is not voting based on talent, which is absoultely pathetic, paulini has the best voice in the competition which leads me 2 question why she was in the bottom 3? Millsy should of definitely been out 2nite, but i think ppl r voting based on 'cuteness' or 'personality'.
I think many people out there r racist unfortunately, and that would possibly b anotha reason why paulini wont win the comp.
I havent been brought up in that manner and in fact have travelled to fiji and have been blessed to hear those people sing. They truly have amazing voices.
Dont let it get u down paulini. U ROCK.

He didn't want to admit it last nite - he argued with Dicko which (to me) was embarrassing to say the least.
Maybe he's had a chance to watch the show and listen to how bad he sounded and realised.

For me it would have been a tossup between Levi, Millsie and Shannon.
The fact that Paulini was there was an aberration and I think people just voted to spite Dicko.

When i was voting today - I was determined to keep my favourites in - and somehow in my stupid brain I made a very wrong assumption - that being - 'Paulini is so obviously great - everyone will be voting for her - so i'll give a few others a helping hand' and maybe others thought that too - cause it is absolutly preposterous what happened tonight and to be honest I don't think it will happen again next week - I think tonight might have knocked those who had sense to their senses... See I think the voting thing is stuffed - Cause those of us who have brains - use them to determine that too many voting phone calls to often is going to put a whole in our wallets, so we keep it to an acceptable limit.... But those idiots out there - the ones who are voting with their genitals?  (and that so happens to be the chicks) are the ones who have no problem text messaging all day to save their precious Mills so they can stare at his frightfully annoying face one more week!!!! ARRRGGGHHHHHH |

You're right Feli - I thought the same thing. I assumed that Paulini would be safe so even though I'd already voted for her, I did some last minute votes for Guy and Cosima. (I still think Guy was the standout guy on Sunday!)
If only u could vote for the people you think should go!!!

As far as conspiracy theories go, the only one I think may be at work here is one to make people realise they ALL need to vote for who they like, and showing that people who perform well aren't necessarilly safe. Voting obsessively and repeatedly is something stupid little girls will do, whereas the viewers with respect and intelligence probably would only vote a few times at the most.
Andrew and James can only say it so many times, but it's not just the stupid girls' faults for voting for Rob, its anyone elses for NOT voting for Paulini.
As far as swapping the voting system over to a vote-out rather than keep-in model, I must admit I haven't voted since the beginning (because i'd have to keep voting for multiple people), but if I knew by voting for Rob to get sent back home and thrown in the Yarra it would work, I'd do it until my thumb bled.
I agree with the pro-Rob, anti-Dicko backlash. The few votes that may have been between he and Paulini may just have been of that nature.
