Morrisamb: Yes she did. She was up against good competition. She'll do well I'm sure with her career. I also admire the humility and maturity that she showed in accepting the outcome.

Can't believe I am saying this but I am sorry to see Kimberly go. I would have prefered to see Reuben go. His lack of expression is getting to me. The most expressive he shows is after a performance when he is "talking" to someone in the audience.
I love Reuben's voice but he isn't very versatile. Kimberly started off poorly but she is doing great now. Hope she gets a deal soon

(((((morrisamb))))) Sorry Kimberley had to go! I loved her too. :( I hope Clay wins. He has the luck of the elfin behind him! Remember, she has a great shot at an album! Luck to Kimberley! :) ~Aztec
Thanks Trotafox, Lady Lee and Aztec (hey you'd make a great girls' group!)
Thanks for supporting Kimberley!
What did you think of Tamyra and Justin's singing? The top 3 this year sing way better than Justin...I had to leave the room..he drives me nuts. Tamyra did well but in the clips of saying good bye to Kimberley, they show her singing the same song : Over the Rainbow...like Smokey Robinson said, That girl can Zang!!!!
I've seen it posted before that some don't think Kimberley has stage presence...I don't get it...so many of these pop singers (ie. Britney Spears) do so much on stage in a 2 hour stage show to detract from their boring voices.
I COULD go see Kimberley sing almost every song she sang in this competition...I mean, god, I'd be entertained...(from It's Raining men - I say, hallaleuja, to My Heart Will Go On, to, Where The Boys Are) in fact, I wish I recorded every one, then edited to one tape. I loved Reuben and Clay early on, but kinda find their voices predictable.
Reuben looked like a deer in headlights last night. But when I saw how the people responded to him back home, the little children especially - what a wonderful role model for them...I almost wanted him to win right then and there.
I have a feeling Clay will win. (Reuben just didn't sound as good on Tuesday.) I think if he wins, he will be great too...I mean how they all yacked about his look at first. I guess that's not so surprising, even Paula had a nose job to give her the Hollywood look.
The fact that these 3 made it to the finals show sometimes substance champeons over superficial ideas of what an American Idol should look like!
Well, I must say I was surprised to see Kimberly go last night. I still think she deserved to be in the final two. I think it will be a very interesting battle between the two guys left. They might be completely different in looks, but I think there styles are very much alike....they are crooners and ballads are their bright point. I think it will come down to who gets the best song for their voice......I have changed my mind on who will win in the end....I think it will be Clay now instead of Reuben.....Clay seems to be handling the pressure better than the velvet teddy bear.

I loved Tamyra's version of Over the Rainbow. At first it seemed odd, but it got to me. She really has the voice!!
Justin was awful. Clay sang that song on Tuesday and was so awesome, and Justin brutalized it. I think he forgot the words early on too. And as Randy says "he was a little pitchy" here and there. I didn't like him last year either.
Toward the end of the show, I was hoping Kimberly was in the final two and was a bit surprised when she was voted off.
There really should be a way for them to only accept one vote from each telephone. Ruben's brother talked about voting over 170 times for Ruben one night. That seems wrong to me.
I think Clay will win.
I agree Mulan...Justin was awful...Clay will win.
Justin's hair scares me! :o
Anyone seen Kimberley sing two songs on Entertainment Tonight?...sensational. It just might work for her being 3rd behind the two most popular contestants...there's no resentment that she usurped them; almost everyone agrees she sang her best the night she left. In this business, the last performances are always what are remembered most.
On American Idol, Kimberley and Clay, I would say made the most improvement changes in their appearance, stage pressence.
Reuben from the first time was consistantly amazing...week after week, effortlessly wonderful. Only the last few weeks after some of the judges said try something new, did he seem to be straining, lose comfidence [this also happened to Josh], and also look awkward in some ridiculous clothes.
I wonder if subliminally this has affected our opinion of Reuben?
I don't like Justin's singing at all...Clay was much better singing the same song.
