I believe that Lee had the teen vote where Crystal did not. She had the older [Janis Joplin base] vote.....and probably not enough of us watch AI. When I voted [3 times] I had no problem getting through, and it was immediately after the show was over. Odd.
So, as I said before, even though she 'lost' the "title", it's no big deal, because in the long run, it will be Crystal who gets the 'tiara' [recording success]. She's got the talent and the quirk factor. Anyone notice that David Cook and Adam Lambert weren't in the Formers Line~up? |

Also yes I noticed that about David Cook and Adam Lambert...are they too big of stars now to go to a lowly AI event? Carrie and the others that have "made it" were there. In all fairness, I suppose they could have had former engagements, but you would think they would have figured out a way. Was very odd to me as well. |

Actually, David Cook was performing for a charity event ~ a cancer organization he supports from having lost his brother last year (or the year before) to cancer. Adam Lambert has been put on vocal rest. And in the singer's world, "vocal rest" is like a form of 'death'......it's very difficult to do without total seclusion. Just an FYI....  |

Teen votes? Rigged?
I think Lee was consistently good all season and deserved to win.

Yeah....the teeners loved him....that's not a bad thing. I'm not sure how the thing can be rigged....I think that card's played when someone's 'fave' doesn't win....but that's just human nature, yes? And it's also ok to disagree.....and have our own theories....that's what this thread is all about.... Here's the Happy Bee to make everyone smile....  |

I'm disappointed that Crystal didn't win. I thought Lee was good, but Crystal was great, IMHO. That said, I knew she wouldn't get it. As Diva said, her appeal is to a different audience. I don't think it's rigged, but I would like to see the voting process changed a bit. On "America's Got Talent," there are limits to the number of times you can vote from the same phone or by the same method. I think that would even it out a bit, and be more of a reflection of the actual support vs who has the stamina to stay up until midnight, hitting the redial button.

This is the best possible outcome. Lee needs the structure that the record company will give him. He's still growing and coming out of his shell.
Crystal doesn't need any handling, really. She's ready to go now. Being 'runner up' means she'll have a little more freedom in terms of producing her music. I enjoy both of them immensely. I did, however, fear that Paula was tipping the pills again. Weird. |
