I legitimately CRIED when Candice was announced as a winner. She deserved it so much omg

I agree 100%! I love Kree and Angie but ever since I saw Candice's performance during the top 10 live shows (the one with the big ass drum, the lights/set was all red ) which she performed again during the finale (third song) I kinda knew she would be in the top 2 and could probably win this whole thing. (I had the same thought when I saw Jessica's top 10 live performance but she didn't win in the end :/ ). She SLAYEEEEEEEEEEEEEED the song both times!! I get goosebumps by just thinking of her singing that song. Also she has been consistent throughout the competition. She DESERVED it.

Candice's single is the worst.

It sounds dull in the studio. The lyrics weren't ever strong enough to get a rise in me anyway. I'm glad she's charting just outside of the top 10 though.

Am curious to see if Angie really is being sabotaged on the charts though (it seems suspect that it's nowhere to be found). The song has more hype than the other two singles just because it was performed and raved about so long ago. I think the studio version is kind of a mess but it's better than Candice's.

Kree's single is the best out of the three. It's more put together.

Candice's single is currently charting on iTunes at #11, Kree #50, and Angie not charting. Even though Angie's single has twice as many ratings as Candice and Kree on Itunes... but Angie's name misspelled. Currently, you have to look for "Angie Miler" with one "L".

at misspelling her name on purpose so it's harder to find and it won't chart over Candice and Kree...

Angie song isn't charting because it can't, her song has the american idol logo on it which means its basically like during the season when they had the studio recordings and they weren't allowed to chart. Her chart success is basically being hidden right now, there's no doubt the song is more then likely charting well on itunes. Its just it wont chart with that idol logo on it, its basically treated at the moment as a idol studio recording that they wont show charting if that makes sense lol.

Over on Fox, American Idol finished the season like you might expect: Down, down, down.

Idol had 14.3 million viewers and a 3.6 rating, according to Nielsen’s final overnight numbers. That’s off a steep 44 percent from last year. This is by far the lowest rated Idol finale ever — the previous finale low was last year’s 6.4. Compare both those numbers to the Idol finale two years ago, which scored a 9.2 rating.

I bet this is the last time we'll see them push the female winner agenda.

A female winner is certainly not the reason ratings fell though.

The blatant push for a female winner + old/dying franchise + Nicki Minaj (unfortunately) caused the ratings catastrophe.

Not the female winner, but the journey it took to get there with the exclusion of "attractive" white males for Idol's audience to munch on, among other reasons.

They didn't leave a single Phillip/Scotty. Not even anyone NEAR that. Anyone with a brain could figure out that the producers eliminated all the straight white boys.

If only Paul Jolly was straight or pretend to be straight , plays a guitar and didn't suck. Right?

Well, the producers's manipulation and sabotage was obvious as hell this season, and that probably had something to do with the ratings going down.

[Hooligan]

The ratings are going down because of the obvious -- Idol has been on air for 11 years. Nothing lasts this long but It's still one of the top rated shows so everything is fine.

Random thought: What is Brian Dunkleman doing?

Can we talk about how most of Jojo's most defining vocal features were apparent even then? Insane.

JoJo reminded me of Xtina in this Clip lol

[fortheloveofmusic]

I still liked The Band Perry's performance the most lol I didn't expect them to go in like that

It made me want to listen to the song on Spotify.
