American Idol Predictions: Who will be out in the top 7 part 2

Last week Matt Giraud was saved by the judges so we still have 7 contestants this week. However, 2 contestants are going home later today. Will Matt Giraud be safe this week? Or will the other contestants "safe" him?

This week's theme is disco, but not many of the contestants sang upbeat songs which kind of disappointed me. It seems like everyone wants to be Adam Lambert, all trying to be special and make a disco song slow heh. No one can surpass him though. Adam Lambert is definitely going to become the American Idol this season, unless something dramatic happens.

Because this week's show was rather boring, I realized I was more interested with some other things that happened during the show rather than the contestants singing. I'm not sure if I've seen Danny Gokey's sisters in the show before, but I just realized how hot they are. I also noticed that when they are showing Adam's supporters, the caption was "Adam's Family", you know like the movie The Addams Family? The Addams Family snap snap ... Lol! Adam Lambert's fans can call themselves "The Adam's Famly"! Hey, it sounds better than claymates right? Allison Iraheta also did her usual "before the break" funny routine, this time with Danny Gokey. She looks so funny with his specs on lol. The Allison funny routine has been a lucky charm for contestants. Those paired with her will always be safe which means this week Allison and Danny will stay in the competition. Who will join them in the safety seat?

Lets see last week's idol iTunes ranking ...

1) (1) Adam Lambert - 964 ratings / 254 review (avg 4.5 stars)
2) (6) Kris Allen - 926 rating / 189 reviews (avg 4.5 stars)
3) (2) Allison Iraheta - 339 ratings / 75 reviews (avg 4.5 stars)
4) (4) Matt Giraud - 316 ratings / 96 reviews (avg 4.5 stars)
5) (3) Danny Gokey - 296 ratings / 69 reviews (avg 4 stars)
6) (5) Anoop Desai - 251 ratings / 84 reviews (avg 4.5 stars)
7) (7) Lil Rounds - 160 ratings / 49 reviews (avg 2.5 stars)

The ranking is pretty much the same except for Kris Allen's usual yo-yoing around. One week's he's hot another he's not! Luckily for him, this week he's hot and together with his great performance will guarantee his passage into the top 5. Seems like Danny Gokey is getting a little boring and has dropped to 5th spot, he should be safe this week though. I think it's quite obvious that the 3 contestants who are in danger are Matt Giraud, Anoop Desai and Lil Rounds if you base it on their performance and rankings. They were all also in the bottom 3.

Matt Giraud is becoming more like a Justin Timberlake wannabe, Lil Rounds is at her usual unoriginal self and Anoop had a very bad last note. These 3 contestants I think will all be out by next week, but I wonder which 2 will go out this week. Last week I was choosing between Matt and Anoop to go out and flipped a coin to decide. The coin made me choose the wrong guy so this week I will make a guess base on my gut feeling heh. Hey gut, who will be out this week?

Okay, my gut tells me that the 2 guys will go home this week and Lil Rounds will survive and sing "Survivor" by Destiny's Child if it is allowed in next week's theme. However, she will still be out heh.

So final prediction: Matt Giraud and Anoop Desai to hold hands and go home this week.
