I know it's a little late for this but I'm just curious. . . did you vote for Blake or Jordin and why? Personally, I really like them both and looked forward to their performances each week. Jordin is amazingly poised and talented for such a young contestant. I loved her choice in music (most of the time) and thought she really had fun performing. But. . . for me Blake took the cake. He's got such a unique style and (although some might disagree) the beatboxing was super cool! I don't think earning 2nd place in American Idol will hurt his career a bit. Even so, we voted as many times as our fingers could continue pressing the redial button on our phone.
We had the privilege to attend the American Idols Live concert at the MO State Fair this summer (more on that later) and it was awesome! Even from our seats way up high in the bleachers the enthusiasm and delight of the crowd was obvious. I don't know who enjoyed it more, our four kids or us, the parents. Anyhow, the ultimate performance of the night (in my opinion) went to Blake and Chris Richardson. (Who knew Chris could beatbox?) The audience applause was dramatically louder when Blake performed compared to any of the other contestants. He truly has incredible fan support. His album is due to be released in December http://www.americanidol.com/ and I'm sure his fans will be lining up at the door to grab a copy!
I wish the best of luck to Jordin and Blake. I don't think either one of them will have any trouble makin it big in the music world.
