thia you're still number one. we love you

Sorry to see these girls go home, but they have some changes to make in their journey to a next American Idol.

i just cant believe that thia is gone...i lov her voice

-_- Why and Why thia megia has been gone there may be changes in the future and there might be nice and worst things about naima and thia. But Why did you eliminate those two? They had great songs and great voices what are you ? Eliminate the good singing's and keep the bad ones? How Sad but no offence to Scotty and Jason They have great voices and supa dupa nice voices that explode to to the roof so people please do not make Scotty and Jaso Eliminated thanks :)

They eliminated the right two people.

I do think the right two were eliminated. Thia has ten more years to become an american idol. I wish the March31 performances by the contestants would be posted on line. Don't you producers know we are American Idol addicts. We talk about them at work, defending our favorites to the death. We are engrossed on Wednesday nights as each contestant performs. After each performance we text our fellow AI followers with our own personal rating of each performance by each contestant. Then its to the phones to vote for our favorites. At the risk of bodily injury, everyone knows not to call during the 2 hour voting time. Then the next morning we tune from station to station on our way to work to get the local DJ's recaps and their own personal opinions of the prior evening's performances. One local DJ has been removed from my radio presets after calliing Scotty a "Josh Turner Want-To-Be." Scotty has proven him to be wrong, and I am so glad. HA. Then comes the long discussions at work about who was the best last night and who will go home tonight. By 7 pm we are on the edge of our seats again texting our fellow AI followers with our predictions and our surprises as Ryan suspensfully reveals the 3 bottom contestants. We hold our breaths. We only breath a sigh of relief when our favorite is sent to the safe benches. Then its to the phones again to text our boast if we picked the bottome 3 or even 2 correctly. We text our opinions about who went home to soon, and who should have gone home instead. Then the next morning it back to the radio on our way to work for the DJ"S take on the same thing, and then to work for coworkers' take one it. Then we have to get our American Idol "FIX" on line until the next Wednesday night performances. WE WANT THOSE THURSDAY EVENING, MARCH 31 CONTESTANT PERFORMANCES PUT ON LINE. Everyone is talking about how good their performances were, but we have no way to see them again. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The wrong ones left .Right ones should have been casey and paul.

Why is paul still there?!?! now all my favorites have been sent home (Thia, n brett) i am rly suprised that thia went home.

No matter who goes home now, it's gonna be tough. A lot of great talent and great competition. It's not going to be easy to see anyone leave. Good luck to all. I'm certainly enjoying the show and enjoying the fact that I can purchase the weekly album on itunes.

i don't was expecting anything like it!!!

Paul will be the next then... following by Stefano :-)

I am SO glad Casey stayed on the show! I think he is the most talented out of all of them!
I AM sad to see Thia go though. I think she had a very powerful voice! More potential than
what America gave her I think!

But all I can say is I am glad Casey is still on! He deserves to go till the end!!

Also, I think Niama and PAUL should've went home. I dont think Paul is as nearly as good as Thia was. Paul had the looks, but Thia had the voice. She had a stronger voice over the two. So I guess... what are we going to vote for???

i am so disappointed to the result, especially for voting out thia megia. i know its your right to vote that's its my right to say this. YOU DONT KNOW WHAT THE REAL TALENT IS!

anyway, thia we still love you.. the filipinos still love you!...

Scotty, you are the BEST of all!!

can anybody tell me the name of the final song when they're showing the tribute to Naima and Thia?

I am very disappointed with the result. I believe that two other participants might have left the Idol and nobody would feel sorry

i think naima is so unique & great.. she has a really great potencial voice, i really love it when she hit some big notes with her voice, just how she manage it..
but that's the competition -_-.
goodbye & GBU

There's never been as GREAT a season as this!!! But I REALLY MISS NAIMA!! She has so much heart. so there's a little heart missing from now on. I really like James and Scottie. And sometimes Casey. Not so much Lauren and Jacob.
Naima I hope many more successes come to you. You are such a kind person and SO FUN to watch perform!!!!

what is going on with American Idol!!! Pia is the Best and should have one this!!!! I don't understand, there are nobody left that can sing as good as Pia!!!! This is very upsetting to me and makes me want to quit watching this show!!!

The Judges should have used their save for Pia!!! She is much better, don't like what has happened

This is a fix!!! Pia should have never been sent home. She is outstanding. Also 50 VOTES PER PERSON ON LINE IS LUDICROUS! That is NOT FAIR. It should be no more than ONE VOTE. This is completely skewed! It's not fun anymore. The judges stink, too. Bring back Simon Cowell. He MADE the show. How could the judges save that one guy? I don't know what they see in him. I've been in music all my life. He's may be talented, but on this show, he's the bottom of the barrel and should have been eliminated tonight!!! No point in watching any more.

NO WAY! PIA SHOULD NOT BE GOING HOME! SHE WILL GO ON TO BIGGER AND BETTER THINGS FOR SURE!
SHE SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN THE TOP TWO OR THREE AT BEST....OH WELL.

Really?? Are we all being PUNK???D about PIA?? She was the best on the show. There needs to be a recount on vote???s.
There is No WAY Stephano got more votes then her. James-looks like SLOTH from the Goony???s, someone give him a (babyruth) and why is he so cocky and quick to make rude remark???s on other people. Paul-the back corner of a hole in the wall bar is where he belongs with his talent. Jacob need???s to stay in the Church Choir. Casey-sound???s like a train reck and looks like the wolf man. Scotty is the nerd of the bunch.
It come???s down to Lauren and Haley, since Pia obviously isn???t there. Winning???s obviously are on with these 2. I bet it???s Haley ?

Ok let's face the truth.. Pia was prolly the best contestant this season and we all knew it. The final results were based on all of America's votes. Unadultered, raw, blunt, and cold cut. Pia was NOT America's favorite this season, and that's why she didn't make it. However, since she did perform flawlessly every single time I'm sure that after tonight she'll be getting more record deals and offers than she'll know wtf to do with lol. THIS IS THE BEST PART: Now that America has eliminated this "default contestant that everyone thought she was going to make it anyway", now all the others have a real chance at winning this... and to me this makes the show more interesting now, mainly because now the TOP 8 are realllllly gonna have to put their game faces on! Randy couldn't have said it better "IF YOU THINK YOU'RE SAFE, LOOK AT TONIGHT" (or something like that). Perfectly said. This season's American Idol is now going to be a really tough ladder to climb, especially with monsters like Casey Adams, Jacob Lusk, James Durbin, Paul McDonald, and Scotty McCreery. Interestingly though, it seems this year's American Idols are all about the guys. Anyone else notice it's only 2 chicks now? And with Pia outta the picture, I think it's clear n' safe to say this year, the boys are back in town!

This was the WORST night ever... including that HORRIBLE performance by that shirtless guy... UGH..what is American Idol thinking?? GET PIA BACK!!!!!

Pia gone :(...well is their loss and another recording studios gain because just like Daughtry she is gonna get signed before you can say the two words AMERICAN IDOL!

In behalf of FILIPINO, we really proud of you THIA. You are a very great singer....I pray that your singing career will still continue.... Keep it up!

What the hell going on ????. I feel so sad for the result tonight . stupid!... she is the best than ever ,i love Pia! .Pia deserved to go for next rounds!! . I don't like Scotty much, i admit his voice is not bad " country voice" , but most of the songs ...evrery kind of music he sang from 1st time to top 9 now always with " country Voice" . that is really really bored ...honestly! :(

They should make an exception and save Pia. They"ve done it before in the past. It's just so wrong that she should go. The rest pale in comparison.

Who was that shirtless guy? That was an Idol low point in my opinion.

Pia receiving the lowest votes was shocking. I hope Idol is recounting her votes right now; surely, there was a phone system malfunction. Pia is a great singer and should have made it to the finals. I suppose her supporters failed to vote; I know I cast several votes for her.

I hope record producers are working with her right now. She definitely has an outstanding career in front of her.

Good luck, Pia! I look forward to your releases.

Are you kidding me?????!!!!!! I'm outraged!!! I have been a loyal AI viewer for the past 10 years and eliminating PIA Toscano is by far the worst moment ever on the show. The judges blew it by using the "save" on Casey. They could have used it on PIA who clearly deserved it. I'll never watch American Idol again. I'm done with the show!!!!

This is outrageous!!!The judges should've kept the save!!! I am not gonna watch the show again!I love you Pia!!

What happened last night???This is so unfair.She is the best singer on the show.America has this wrong!

If you only had rules on voting, the outcome would have been different!!!

Give me a break, Pia going home !!?? me too , see next year Idol , im out of here.

After the last shows fiasco,,I think I'll show my displeasure by refraining from buying any Coca Cola products for a month!Perhaps if enough of us did that,it might show the producers our displeasure of what's going on and who allowed those girls on stage, showing partiality to one of the other contestants??

Golden lotus,you have excellent taste in music and a keen eye in seeing the boredom of watching Scotts imitations of country greats week after week! Allen Jackson,Roy Orbison,Harry Nilson and this week The King himself. I took all the AI DVR's I have and put his appearances together and it sounded like the same song every week only with different lyrics. His stage performances are elementary school glee club level and whats with that right hand, either waving at emigrants arriving at Ellis Island or holding the mike with two hands like Judy Garland at The Palace! This kids gotta go and go soon, especially if they can get rid of a performer with the talents such as Pia's!

Judges used their save to early Casey was not worth saving, Pia is way more talented than him, and for Paul he should of gone by the 1st or 2nd show,, Pia you are great and will have a record in no time!

I totally cannot accept the result! Come on, Americans! Those who didn't vote for Pia - are you blind, deaf or dumb?? Shame on you. I was so so looking forward to seeing Pia and James as the final two!! Such a huge waste that's she's out! Yes, Scotty is the worst out of all, and still he's there... And yes, the "save" was wasted on Casey. My God....!! Sucks!!

Pia has the best voice this season and forget for a moment that she is stunningly beautiful. I will miss hearing and seeing her for the rest of this season, and maybe I won't bother watching the rest of this season. One thing is for sure, she will have a wonderful career and will outshine and outsell anyone who winds up winning this year's competition.

Lauren Alaina is totally amazing!!!!! I would pay now to see her in concert!

Scottie, Scottie, Scottie. You are just amazing, you have truly blown me away. Just remeber I love you and your music.

One more hour before we hear Scott do another boring and boring imitation of a country great he has heard ,and the others be confused as to what the hell is going on. as we wish Simon was there to put Randy in his place. Would have one less "Listen baby" or "Listen Dude" each week!
