The Elimination of Amber Holcomb

Jimmy’s critique this week couldn’t have been better. I agree with everything he said about each contestant. Candice was the strongest of the week, but not the strongest we’ve seen her. As for the other three contestants, they fell short unfortunately. There are a few contestants that have definitely earned their spot in the finale, and others not so much.

David Cook, the winner of season 7, and Will.i.Am were the guest performers of the week. In spite of me not really caring for Will.iAm’s new song, David and him both did their thing with their performances. Also, go purchase David’s single titled “Laying Me Low”.

As Ryan FINALLY got to the results, he sent Angie and Candice into the Top 3 thankfully, leaving Amber Holcomb and Kree Harrison to hear results after the next commercial.

Amber ended up being the least voted contestant, as we all probably predicted. There’s no save left, so the least voted has no other option. I wanted and hoped Amber would stay over Kree, but it didn’t happen. Amber’s stage presence has grown so much right before our eyes; I just hate to see her go. In spite of her elimination, I highly doubt that will be the last we see of Amber, with legs like hers, a voice like hers, and a presence like hers, I’m sure we’ll see her again. This is not the end Amber, it’s just the beginning, hold your head up, and be strong. Good luck Amber.

Now as for Kree, I don’t really understand the big hype about her, at times she seems so dull, I just don’t understand what America sees in her, especially over Amber. I DID NOT want to see Kree in the Top 3 and I definitely don’t want to see her in the Top 2, let alone winning the competition. I just hope the rest of the public comes to realization about this SOON. With that being said, Angie and Candice, you two have to give it your ALL next week, do us all the favor and knock Kree out of the competition! PLEASE!

Until we meet again, next Thursday (Laugh out loud).
