I can understand why LaToya and Fantasia are not that popular. I know they have big voices and can really belt it out, but I personally don't like that all the time. I like it used with measure. (I love Celine Dion. She has the right mix.) I find it a bit tiring each week. It is the same style.
I didn't find Paulini like that though. She had good dynamics. But still, she only made it to the top four. (I say 'only' but that is still very good.)
Fantasia will do well now that LaToya is not there to split the BIG voice lovers vote.

Apparently the judges were quite mean to Jasmine, as her performances of "Everlasting Love" and "Its Raining Men" were apparently not good at all. Afterwards she begins to cry. I think that this would have gained her some sympathy votes...? Go Diana all the way! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

i thought it was between latoya (cos she reminded me of paulinie and she went out 4th as well) and jasmine but i thought jasmine would go...but i guess she must have a really big fan base, really devoted fans or both!!!
I hope Jasmine does NOT win thou...my first choice is diana but i wouldnt care if Fantasia wins

I don't get the Fantasia = big voice thing... she doesn't do power ballads. The other three do.
Fantasia has sung ballads before, but softens at the end or jazzes it up. If anything, it's La Toya and Jasmine who are the power balladers (though Jasmine's voice can't take it- but it's her style).
The only thing La Toya & Fantasia had in common (singing wise) was the fact that they were both a cut above the rest. But their styles, voices and song choices are completely different.

I always say 'you get what you deserve.'
Inspite of their supposedly strong performances, Fantasia and Latoya have obviously by large failed to convert dispossessed fans to their fanbase.If you have not enough support who do you blame?
Although Latoya have a good voice, her insipid personality does not come through.
Fantasia is at the opposite end, her strong grating personality are a turnoff to potential fans.
Jasmine has x factor, her looks and beguiling personality have won her new support. Inspite of what have been said, sympathy will never work if there is no overwhelming appeal to vote for her . And vote they did, she came top two at this late stage. Obviously she has ooddles of x factor. The only snag is that it is not complimented by her singing lately.
Have anyone noticed Diana growing support? She dont even have to look back nowadays.
The final analysis is Idol is not about singing only its also about appeal. It helps if you got both right.

I don't find Fantiasia's personality grating. I think she is an amazing vocalist and she really deserves to win.
Jasmine - x factor? beguiling? I can't see it.

SO GO FANTASIA !!! LOVE HER COZ SHE'S LIKE OUR GUY QUITE UNIQUE does anybody know if she's a songwriter Fantasia is like our Guy??? I take that as an insult to Guy and all the Guy fans out there! GUY is far more superior to Ms Fat Lips with an annoying attitude! There's a fine line between confidence and annoying, but in Fantasia's case, she is just downright annoying! I'm not even sorry to say it but she eserved to be in the bottom 2! I'm sure it gave her little heart a big scare haha!

WHaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaT? ?? I cant believe it? I really thought Fantasia and La toya would be the bottom two? but I heard Simon was a little "rough" on Jasmin, so I think she gained some sympathy votes. Oh god I hope Fantasia wins!!

hey barbs!! Yeah me too!! Fantasia was my second choice but I hope that she wins now!!
Wow!! Stacy!! You are SO out of line talking to SoCrazy that way!! First of all if the American Idol folks didn't want us here in OZ to be interested in American Idol then they shouldn't have it on TV here. We are in the wrong demographic eh?? Well, they won't say that when they are trying to market the winner here...trying to get Aussies to by the CD!!!! PPFFFFFTTTT!! I hope that you aren't a fellow Yank!! Your arrogance gives us all a bad name!!!
Superc!! Totally agree!
