One of 9 Voted Off

Ryan announces that Constantine Maroulis will appear on tonight’s show. He’s actually appearing in "Rock of Ages" in San Francisco right now; I happened to hear an interview with him on my favorite radio station (Alice radio) the other morning.

Ryan also tells us that Iggy Pop is in the house and will be performing later in the show. Tonight’s dreaded/dreadful group sing is a rock ‘n roll medley --- just as awful as every other group sing has been.

We view another unforgettable Ford video, then get to see a video of the surprise charisma coach this week --- Russell Brand.

Casey, Stefano, and Lauren are called to center stage. Lauren is safe. Casey is safe, and Stefano is in the Bottom Three.

Constantine comes out to sing "Unchained Melody". I’m thinking I’m going to like it, because the arrangement is really different, but it’s just awful. I start to fast-forward, then feel as if I didn’t give it a chance, watch a few more seconds, then decide I was right and fast-forward to the end of the song. It’s hard to believe from this performance that he was nominated for a Tony.

Gwen Stefani was the stylist for the girls on last night’s show. We get to see an awkward clip of them interacting. Gwen picked outfits for them, and the girls ended up wearing what they felt comfortable in.

Paul, Scotty, and Pia are called to center stage. Scotty is safe. Paul is safe, and Pia is in the Bottom Three.

Next up is a clip of the contestants getting media training from the staff at TMZ. Jacob asks if one of the female TMZ staff is single --- who is he trying to kid??

James, Haley, and Jacob are called to center stage. James is safe. Haley is safe, and Jacob is in the Bottom Three.

So, tonight’s Bottom Three are: Jacob, Pia, and Stefano. I’m two for three.

Iggy Pop performs shirtless. He’s such a weird weirdo --- I think you have to be very drunk, very high, or just insane to think he’s entertaining!

Jacob, Stefano, and Pia are called to center stage. Jacob is safe. Pia is going home, and Stefano is safe.

There’s a lot of booing, Jennifer Lopez is visibly moved, and everyone seems upset. And, even though it seems as if Pia shouldn’t be going home this week -- that perhaps someone else should have been voted off -- let’s face it! From here on out, it’s going to be very, very hard seeing ANY of these kids go home. They’re all that good.

Sure, maybe it would have been easier to see Jacob or Stefano go home instead, but we’re quickly reaching that point where they’re all going to be equally talented, and the choices will be impossible ones.
