Yeah, Scott's outta there!, Anthony you're next . . .

Randy was right, the top three on the couch were the one's that should be there. I have a feeling Bo will win. I love Carrie, she's awesome, and Vonzell kicks a . . . she's a new Whitney Houston without the drug problem. Regardless who wins, they'll all get contracts, no doubt.

Primetime Live was unbelievable. I somehow don't believe it, this guy could easily be a schemer and an opportunist. Come to think about it, last week, I couldn't have told you who Corey Clark was. On a radio program I listen to, they discussed how Paula's phone message could have easily been taken out of context. When Corey got busted about his past, Paula could have easily called him and told him not to talk to the media. Their relationship might be more about Paula helping him out after his past was brought up, and not about an affair they were having. Something to think about.

I don't believe a word of what he had to say. Its all BS to sell a book.

Anthony is teenie bopperish. I don't think he is all that cute, and I agree he can't sing. But I think you know how girls go gaga over boys, that is why he has stayed so long. Now Bo, he is a looker. When he sings, it takes me back to the late 60s and 70s. It is like he is as old as I am. But when they show him up close and I see his hands, and face I realize just how young he is. To young for me, but a very attractive man to say the least. I have liked him from the beginning. I will vote every week for him. As many times as I can get through. Both he amd Carrie are marketable. They will both do well.

That prime time special was just a way to get ratings. It was a bunch of lies, lies, lies. Why would Paula do some thing like that when as pretty as she is could have any man. That would mean she is stupid. I don't see that! I turned off the prime time special and went to bed. It would have been a waste of my time and good sents.

I hope you are right but I believe Corey's story. The release of the information was timed perfectly for his book and record.

Corey had to many witnesses and was very convincing with his answers.

I hope I'm wrong but if I'm correct this will certainly ruin Paula's career and damage the show as well.

If Paula is gulity she did a stupid thing and why would she take such a chance.

EleanorsMine

But him...Ew.

Just Glad Bo's still around...

Let's go over to his house and see his Mom for an early congrats.

EleanorsMine

Tell her I said Hi.

EleanorsMine

Turns out I got my Bo Fix on fox 6 last night.....

ALLMINE65

Wish I could have been there!!! I will have to watch TV. That is about the close as I will ever get. I am sure his family are really nice. It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. Love him! I know what ever happens on Idol, he will come out an winner.

EleanorsMine

Part of me wants him to go back to work at the guitar gallery........Cause I spend too much time there.

EleanorsMine

Like Bo's music?

HELENA, Alabama (AP) -- Bo Bice hasn't traded his grandma-made rocker threads for Hollywood's designer labels just yet.

While fellow "American Idol" contestants change hairdos and fashion styles weekly, the Alabama native remains true to his down-home garb -- sometimes fringed and earthy, at times glossy liquid leather -- and his signature, shoulder-length locks.

"They tried to do highlights, they tried to cut his hair -- Bo says no," said his mother, Nancy Downes. (Attempts at Willie Nelson-style braids and a run-in with a hair iron were also no-nos.)

Heading into Tuesday's final four match, Bice's fans in his hometown of Helena are watching even closer for any changes. They don't expect any from the 29-year-old Southern heartthrob who still wears the vintage attire designed and sewn by his grandmother and jewelry created by a local bead artist.

Bice is expected to wear the latest "really wild" creation from Grandma Madge Schofield and a jade necklace crafted by Helena artist Lora Popwell during Tuesday's performance, Downes said.

"Pretty much everybody knows the Bo on TV is who you get," said John Cooper, bassist and back up singer in Bice's band, SugarMoney.

His loyalty is evident: He has a steady girlfriend, a menagerie of dogs, cats and turtles, and a town that defends him like blood -- especially after he claimed Helena as his hometown over metros like his birthplace of Huntsville and better-known, nearby Birmingham.

Signs reading "Go Bo Go" are plastered all over Helena's storefronts, churches and City Hall building, and the Bice Squad fan club is looking for members.

"He's very loyal. You didn't hear a lot of negativity about him until Smoking Gun got a hold of it," said Helena spokeswoman Joy Childers, referring to a recent report by thesmokinggun.com about Bice's two drug arrests over the past four years.

By all accounts, the 10,000-population city stood by Bice during the ordeal, which had little effect on his popularity on the show.

Bice has emerged as an unexpected favorite, steadily gaining respect from the three "Idol" judges. When fellow rocker Constantine Maroulis was knocked off in the April 27 episode, Bice stepped into the forefront as the judges' "true rock star."

Well, more like a rocker with a soft spot for stray pets, Moon Pies and his mom. Around town, he's known as a good Christian, devoted to the New Hope church and his friends. At home, he's the family's beloved "hippie perfectionist."

Born in Huntsville, Bice spent most of his life between Alabama and Georgia, with close ties to his mother, grandmother and aunts. His parents divorced when he was 3, and the next few years spent in Atlanta were particularly hard on the toddler and his single mom.

"He's been considered a momma's boy," Downes said. "There were nights when we were struggling with a mattress on the floor of a one-bedroom apartment, eating spaghetti every night."

"It was really tough. That's the reason I think we are so close," she said.

Bice's family grew, with another brother -- a clean-cut U.S. Marine -- and later two stepsisters and a stepfather he considers his dad.

Downes said she always encouraged Bice's love of rock 'n' roll, and even the image that went along with it. Bice has sported his lengthy locks for as long as she can remember: "He's had the hair from Day 1. Bo's hair used to be down to his waist. We just hated him because it was so beautiful."

A job transfer by his stepdad pulled him to London during his high school years, before he returned to Alabama and joined a garage band called Purge. As some band members moved on to other jobs, Bice consistently played with two -- Shane Sexton and Cooper -- and created the three-member SugarMoney in 1999.

While music was always the main focus, Bice still had to pursue odd jobs to pay the bills: pizza parlor employee, apartment maintenance man, landscaping.

"He's the best on a Weed Eater," recalls Cooper.

The band has remained supportive, Cooper says, with no worries of being ditched: "It makes me feel good to know that all those years we were playing to the ashtrays, playing to nobody, was worth it for somebody."

Ghastly-to borrow an adjective of Mr. Cowell's.

Vonzell must go! And this once again proves Randy Jackson is possessed of a tin ear!!

Bo did well, but I wasn't fond of his country song choice.

I am worried about Carrie (she just doesn't seem to want it bad enough)


In my opinion Mr Federov really did well.
