American Idol Predictions: Who will be out in the top 8

Yay! Finally .... After many days of studying, drinking coffee, dozing off, drinking extra strong coffee, dozing off, eating sweets, dozing off, extra smoking, studying and very little sleep .... I have finally finished all my papers!! I also finished watching the very nice mei-chan no shitsuji and quite a lot of celebrity apprentice 2 (which I like a lot by the way).

Okay enough about my studying, its that time of the week again ... Idol prediction time! There were quite a lot of good performances today. I really liked the performances from Adam Lambert, Allison Iraheta and Matt Giraud. The 3 of them should be safe today despite Allison and Matt being in the bottom 3 last week. It's too early for either of them to go home. if unfortunately one of them gets the lowest number of votes, I think the judges safe will be used.

Lets see the iTunes ranking before I carry on with my prediction

American Idol: iTunes Top 10 Chart (the numbers in bracket are the positions they were in last week)

1) (1) Adam Lambert - 977 ratings / 233 review (avg 4.5 stars)
2) (6) Kris Allen - 743 rating / 111 reviews (avg 4.5 stars)
3) (3) Danny Gokey - 670 ratings / 162 reviews (avg 4.5 stars)
4) (4) Matt Giraud - 370 ratings / 102 reviews (avg 4.5 stars)
5) (2) Allison Iraheta - 251 ratings / 74 reviews (avg 4.5 stars)
6) (7) Anoop Desai - 187 ratings / 61 reviews (avg 4 stars)
7) (8) Scott Macintyre - 175 ratings / 62 reviews (avg 3.5 stars)
8) (9) Lil Rounds - 98 ratings / 26 reviews (avg 3.5 stars)

Wow seems like Kris Allen is getting very popular, he has jumped from number 6 to 2. Too bad Allison's dropped from 5 to 2, I hope she won't be in danger again this week. She does not deserve to go home so early. Scott and Lil have been occupying the bottom 2 for a long time, but it seems like the both of them have been rather safe, except for that one time when Scott was in the bottom 3. Adam Lambert will definitely be the next American Idol, no need to wait till the finals for me to predict that. If Simon gives you a standing ovation, I think you will definitely stand a high chance of winning. Even if he doesn't win, he will get a recording deal for sure.

Let me skip the whole splitting them into 2 groups thing and just announce who I think will be out this week. (Okay I'm getting a little lazy... heh)

There is a possibility that Lil Rounds will go home, but I think it won't happen since there are only 2 girls left. So there is only one other choice I could make base on this week's performance and the popularity factor. The person who will be going home this week is Scott Macintyre. Sorry but I think your performance this week is not good enough and you are not as popular as Kris who did quite badly this week too.

I was pretty close last week, correctly predicting the bottom 2 but chose the Anoop to go home instead of Megan. Will I be correct this week?
