Predictions for American Idol Top 12

News Type: Event — Fri Feb 29, 2008 6:24 PM EST
advertisement

We have just one week left before American Idol announces its Top 12. Here is my prediction for the Top 12:

1. Asia'h Epperson

2. Syesha Mercado

3. Kristy Lee Cook

4. Brooke White

5. Carly Smithson

6. Ramiele Malubay

7. Michael Johns

8. David Cook

9. David Hernandez

10. David Archuleta

11. Chikeze

12. Luke Menard

I'm pretty sure of my picks for the girls although I'd really like to see Amanda Overmyer stay. Unfortunately, I don't think her rocker sound appeals to the general population. If she does stay, I'll be pleasantly surprised.

I'm less confident about my picks for the men. I have no doubts about Michael Johns and the three Davids, but I think the last two slots are open for grabs still.

Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

I agree w/your top 12 but will be very happy if Amanda doesn't make it into the top 12!!! My favs are David A. and Carly.

    I think he has a shot at one of the last two spots, but he has to have a really good performance this week.

    jlane, based on his performance last night. I'd say you were right.

    my top 12: ramiele, carly, syesha, assiah, brooke and amanda, david a , david c, david h, michael, jason and danny.

    jason c, amanda and danny MUST do great perfomances if they want to make it to the top 12, if not... it would be a great opportunitie for kristy, chikezie and luke (hotttt)....
    i think that kady malloy is almost eliminated!

    It has to be Jason Castro because Luke M. is not very good. He was really bad tonight.

    I think if Luke had had a strong performance tonight, he had a chance. But since he didn't come through we have probably seen the last of him.

    I think it's definitely time for him to go. Actually I was ready for him to go a couple of weeks ago.

    There is a lot of talent....of course, I am rooting for the two from Az. We had Jordin, last year!

    I've been so caught up with so three in the Top 24 from Indiana, my home state, that I've forgotten which ones were from AZ. Can you refresh my memory?
