American Idol: Who Survives? Who Goes Home? The Top 5
Predictions by The Reality TV Calendar Staff
April 25, 2012
For last week's American Idol prediction we all thought Elise would be going home.
We were right. It was finally her time.
Our readers also thought it was time for Elise to go.
Of those taking part in our Who do you think is going home? poll, 53% said Elise, next was Joshua with 13%.
This week will be rough. Many have said this season is the most talented of the entire series.
True or not, this top five is going to bring it and it's going to be very difficult to predict how America will vote. We'll see how we do.
Got thoughts? Post them at the end.
And who do our readers think should win it all? Here's the breakdown for our Top 5 Who do you want to win American Idol? poll...
Jessica Sanchez 33%, down from 35%
Hollie Cavanaugh 25%, up from 16%
Skylar Laine 17%, up from 10%
Phillip Phillips 17%, down from 22%
Joshua Ledet 9%, up from 7%
Jessica holds on to a solid lead with little change. Joshua remains on the bottom with Phillip trending down.
Skylar is up, but the big move is from Hollie. Can the Holliepops make it happen?
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.
