American Idol: Will It Be Jessica Or Phillip - Here's Our Prediction
Predictions by The Reality TV Calendar Staff
May 23, 2012
Jessica or Phillip?
For last week's American Idol prediction the majority thought Jessica was going home. Only Idolhead Ed got it right with Joshua leaving.
Those of us who thought Jessica was going were happy to be wrong.
Our readers got it right. Of those taking part in our Who do you think is going home? poll, 42% said Joshua, next was Jessica with 39%. Phillip had 18% of the vote.
Does that mean our readers want Phillip to win?
Here's the breakdown for our Top 2 Who do you want to win American Idol? poll...
Jessica Sanchez 57%, up from 52%
Phillip Phillips 43%, upfrom 27%
At least among our readers it looks like the majority of Josuha's votes have gone to Phillip.
What will happen this week? Let's see.
Each week the staff of Reality TV Calendar predicts who will survive and who will be going home.
In past seasons we have successfully spotted the eventual winner early in the show.
We have a great record of predicting who is going home each week.
Keep in mind that American Idol is not all about talent. It's not all about the best performance.
It is also about the vote and the voting blocks.
Who will be popular?
Who will get votes because they're cute, have a great personality or a compelling story?
Who will the tweens vote for? What about the granny's? The southern block?
We think about all these factors and more when we make our predictions and then we take our best guess. We often disagree. But we almost always nail it.
We'll see how we do this year.
Got thoughts? Post them at the end.
Here's our predictions and comments for last night's performance show and how America voted.
