Nah. She sucked.

YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!! LEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I knew it! He ****ing deserved it!

Why am I not surprised?

Bye bye AI.

Lowest rated finale in the history of American Idol. Not even Janet and Christina could save it.

Worst season and finale EVER. Bye bye American Idol

!!!

Crystal was the only one I liked, but it's predictable that she wouldn't win. Good thing the runner-up usually does better.

Without Paula and Simon, this show is dead next season. The most boring original judge is the only one they leave on the panel. I wouldn't be surprised if they cancelled this summer's auditions, they made the finale last night look like a series finale compared to their past seasons. X Factor here we come.

Rumor: American Idol may be cancelled after next year's (Season 10) finale.

It would work, close it off celebrating a decade of memories. American Idol - Randy Jackson = US X Factor.

Did anyone notice the shade from the AI video before the alums and contestants came out to perform for Simon? The part where Simon told Carrie that she would sell more records than any other idol and that he was right section?

I can tell that it was awwwwkkkwarrrddd after that because Carrie was stand offish in that performance.

Ruben lost weight! LOL

Kelly and Fantasia!

Omg I was totally thinking the same! I was talking to my dad bout that this morning lol

W.O.W.

Even Season 1's finale got more viewers?

*Prays X-Factor can create relevant singers again*

#3 Beautiful Day
#8 Up to the mountain

Congratulations to Lee

Season 9: 24.5 mil
Season 1: 22 mil

gurls

Can't wait for X FACTOR. It's way more interesting than AI.

But If Paula and Simon are on X Factor, its 66% of American Idol. Wouldn't it be way too similar to AI? Change up the panel, and that might help spark interest and boost sales for the artists on that show.
