Why Carly Smithson Finally Lost On American Idol
American Idol viewers are abuzz with confusion over why Syesha Mercado and Carly Smithson were in the bottom two.
According to this site, the first performer of the evening is most likely to lose. According THIS site, it’s all the fault of band leader Ricky Minor.
Both Syesha and Carly flirted with him during the broadcast and strangely enough, both were in the bottom two, although the girls performed extremely well.
But voters didn’t know who they hated more. If you think it was a classic battle of beauty and the beast, you’re half right.
True, the buxom, bootylicious Syesha Mercado in a tight red dress vs the fugly, screechy Carly Smithson summons thoughts of the classic fairy tale, but the only summoning Carly Smithson did was raise holy hell.
Carly sang Jesus Christ Superstar while yelling, making ugly faces, and only smiling when talking about his torture.
That’s right, Syesha may have been a beauty, but Carly Smithson looked like the damn devil.
And Christian Idol voters don’t vote for blasphemous beasts singing about sweet baby Jesus.
At least, not since they voted for Taylor Hicks.

American Idol: Carly Smithson Booted…
Ok I admit it, the girlfriend and I are huge fans of American Idol. I never thought that I’d get into a show like this because I’ve always had the “if there isn’t guitar, I’m not listening” mentality, but this season…

Okay, although I wouldn’t put it just like you did, your theory was the very one I predicted on Tuesday night to my wife. You’re right- you can’t get on “American Idol” all tatted up and sing a song like “Jesus Christ Superstar” to a conservative audience and get away with it. I predicted that she would be booted for that very reason, and I think “our’ theory is correct. I could almost hear the horrified parents across the country yelling to their little kids, “PUT THAT PHONE DOWN.”
