Juliet and Katrina ... in that order. Had Jesse Campbell still been there, I would have added him to the list ... but Christina sorta blew that out of the water.

Yeah, Jesse should have won, IMHO, but Christina (as you stated) blew that out of the water. I personally think her plan backfired though... :rolleyes:

I LOVE Lindsey and Katrina, but I think Juliet gives it her all on stage, so I think she may deserve it more. I'd be fine with either of them winning though...

I really like Jermaine, and I think he's given two GREAT performances, but somewhere between rehearsal and his performance last night, I think something went wrong with the song.

I didn't watch the show last year, but I've been very disappointed by how early some of my other favorites went out. :(

I think it backfired too.

I like Juliet because she's not developing a diva complex. She acts down to earth.

I like Katrina for her Adele-like voice, but I'm not sure time will be kind to that similarity ... viewers are funny that way. They will quickly tire of it.

Had I not heard Jesse, I too would be rooting for Jermaine to win. Maybe it's just me, but his appearance last nite reminded me of The X Factor's divas, Astro and Melanie.

I'm not into Lindsey. She's a good middle-of-the-road singer that fails to impress once you've heard the likes of Juliet and Katrina. Will someone please tell her that the barber made a mistake on the right side of her head? :p

I think she wanted Lindsey and Ashley to be her team moving forward, and she was afraid that Jesse would beat out Ashley, so she let him go instead of Chris. I think Chris beating both Lindsey and Ashley SHOCKED her!

I like her because she gives it her all on stage, and her voice is pretty good too. I didn't care for her at first...

Ditto! She'd need to develop her own style that's different from Adele.

I don't see the comparison...

I thought Jermaine nailed the Billy Ocean and Phil Collins songs, but last night disappointed me... especially after hearing the clips from rehearsal which sounded awesome!!

Lindsey doesn't have the vocal prowess that Juliet or Katrina have for sure, but she's got a unique voice and she's very current in the Alternative/Indie scene. If I was a record company, I'd be knocking her door down to sign a deal. I have no problem with her hair...

She was the best selling singer on "The Voice" this year, but Juliet may have surpassed her now.

If it was Christina's intentions to protect the females, why did she even bother promoting her coaching skills to the men? AARRGG!!! That is grossly unfair!

Same here. You go, Juliet!

I agree, but I don't think Katrina has the time. This program is very close to the finale.

Sorry. I wasn't explicit enough. He (Jermaine) is starting to get a diva attitude. In the past, Jesse kept him in line, but now he's starting to think he's the King of the Mountain. Or maybe I just don't like him. :p

I don't knock her voice or her style. Maybe it's a chemistry thing.

While I was already ticked at Christina for choosing Moses Stone over The Line, her elimination of Jesse Campbell... well, let's just say that my Mom has been comparing her to Nicole Scherzinger after that happened.

I don't think she planned on it that far in advance, but I think she knew Lindsey was the most popular artist on iTunes, and she realized that she underestimated Ashley and wanted to see what she could do. Plus, having two younger contestants versus a guy with a tween/teen daughter might mean she'd have a better chance at having a relevant artist after the contest.

I meant post-contest... even if she could do it fast, I'm not sure it will matter. As much as I like Katrina (a LOT), Tony has a lot of famous people rooting for him and promoting him.

My money is on the latter! ;)

I like Jermaine... I think he's awesome, but he's let me down several times. First with the Bon Jovi song choice, which in his defense was Blake's call I believe, and the second was last night. It sounded wonderful in rehearsal... I wanted it to sound wonderful LIVE as well, and I didn't care for it.

Perhaps...

I only have two criticisms of her... one of which (her eye contact) has gotten better, and two, she needs to watch her breathing... one of her performances she had some problems with her breathing.
