One unhappy camper here, people!
The last woman standing on Canadian Idol has been dismissed before hitting the Top 5 and this American is definitely crying “foul!” She certainly was not the worst in the vocal department this week and her performance was more outgoing and natural than in weeks prior. So what happened?
Two things: first, whoever suggested that outfit and look for her was dead WRONG! While Zack’s comment was a tad over the top, it showed that the look casted a dark pall over her performance and I guess Canada felt that to be true. Second, it’s another case of the curse of going first — with at least two other strong performances and a surprisingly good showing from our friend from NS, Amberly was all but forgotten because she didn’t stand out enough. It’s too bad that this very talented vocalist could only make it to sixth place.
With five guys left and the Beatles songbook being tackled next week, this should prove interesting…
Carry on!

I’m so sad Amberly is gone! I couldn’t believe it. And I thought the way they did it was absolutely mean.
I didn’t enjoy Beatle’s night when they did it on AI last season so I haven’t got a lot of high hopes for next week. Hopefully they’ll prove me wrong.
May I link to this site?
Susanne,
the first Beatles night on AI was great but the second IMHO was overkill (except that David Cook sang DAY TRIPPER which I had predicted would be good for him — and it was!). I might go out on a limb again and make some predictions for Canada’s Fab Five but don’t hold me to it — I’ve got to be in the mood.
By all means, go ahead and link away. Thanks for the interest!

I wouldn’t even dare hazard a guess as to which songs they will do. LOL.
