Riley Thompson
She comes off as a bit pageant-y, maybe that's why she didn't get the votes. But there's nothing wrong with her performance.
Luke can't believe it. "Come on, America. Come on!"

Your daughter’s in trouble:)
Surprised Riley didn’t make it. Idol doesn’t want country

LOL! That's part of his court-ordered public service after getting too "Biden" with the contestants.
Did you know Jeremiah was gay?
For some reason, Katy exudes Cat Woman tonight. All she needs is the mask.
what a plaintive song. The sound of a thousand pillows being bitten.
LMBO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now he's going to sing an original song. Oh this is the same one he sang at the audition--how he will be rejected by Heaven because of his homosexuality.
Well. You said it. Not us.
Just knew they had to keep him around to preach to us.
I thought Llaine was going to win it all last year...he reminded me of Taylor Hicks.
Alyssa didn’t make it? They better save her.
Ragu is in the Shakey Seven. I can see that, even though there's nothing wrong with her singing.
She does something smart (if this show isn't totally scripted and a judge can actually save her) by singing a Katy Perry song.
A saw a kid in an awkward suit and it made me think of it :) Turned out it was Walker in a suit and bowtie. Looked more like Pee Wee Herman.

“American Idol” Season 5 runner-up Katharine McPhee has a message for fans: elections have consequences.
To prove her point, McPhee tweeted a photo of herself and “Idol” winner Taylor Hicks on the night she lost to the strong voting bloc of the Soul Patrol.
“Voting matters. Register here,” McPhee wrote as a caption with the hashtag “#midterms2018.”
Hicks shot right back on Twitter, writing, “You’re right, voting DOES matter! But you’re a little late to the party, Kat.” His tweet included a link to a pro-voter registration PSA video in which he appears, that was posted five months ago on Facebook.
Since the two competed on “Idol” in 2006, both Hicks and McPhee have transitioned to areas of entertainment beyond music.
McPhee has had acting roles on NBC’s “Smash,” the CBS show “Scorpion,” and a starring role on Broadway in “Waitress.” She is engaged to Grammy-winning producer David Foster and the two recently showed up to toast former “Idol” judge Simon Cowell as he received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Hicks starred as Teen Angel on Broadway in Grease, won a Grammy Award for his participation in a performance of Rebecca Black’s “Friday” (featured on Jimmy Fallon’s “Blow Your Pants Off” comedy album) was the first Idol to headline a residency in Las Vegas (ahead of judges Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler). He also owns restaurants and is the host of the food and travel show, “State Plate.” The Soul Patrol can see Hicks live on Nov, 29 at City Winery in Nashville where he’ll perform “Night Moves: The Classic Songs of Bob Seger.”
Hah hah! Bridezilla; Somali Pirate; Gay Preacher Kid!
Wade is safe! Sings Lynard Skynard's "Simple Man".
His is voice doesn't sound real, like he's singing through an electric fan.
Kid is gonna destroy his vocal cords before he hits 25
I loved Wade’s voice, I hope he wins the whole thing, he or Laine.
