Will I love the finale?

Liked the promo driven opening with Night at the Museum. Love Bill Hader and Jonah Hill.

Simon's eyes bugged out when he saw Alicia Keyes come out - she looked amazing! And then she introduces a Rwandan singer. This kid was mad cool in his new clothes. This is a jump the shark moment as noted by Idol watching companion tonight. This kid's got mad moves. He could dance the phonebook. Ryan's dance moves were something else.

I really like Ryan's suit. Danny comes out - I don't understand, they are already going to tell him? Oh no, it is the hometown trip. Danny goes home to Milwaukee. Dorky girls are crying, cute girls are screaming. He sees his best friend - reunion! And then a crazy sequin top wearing girl follows him down the street. He is a nice guy. Think of where he has come from - a widower just before he got to the show.

Kris comes out and goes back to Arkansas. How cute when his Dad hugged him. So happy that we got to hear the Once song again. Isn't it crazy that his wife doesn't say anything? Do you think they did that on purpose? He is a real person. Please let him stay.

Jordin Sparks comes out. She is a giant linebacker girl. I like her hairstyle but I couldn't listen to the battle song anymore.

Adam, wow, the audience loves him. He went back to San Diego. Love that there was a streaker that ran across the stage -- did she not know he is gay? He did the anchor's makeup, wore snake skin boots. WOW. But I really liked him visiting the children's theater -- brought back memories, I did the same thing. He is a nice guy. I'm glad, otherwise I would really lose it.

The three Amigos wait for results after Katy Perry. I love this song and have for months. Love her Adam Lambert cape - that is crazy! Katy and Kara wrote a song together for Kelly Clarkson so she is rocking out. I'm glad she is focusing on singing. She is really pretty. That was fun!

I feel like I know what is going to happen, but last year I was convinced that Archuleta would beat Cook (because Ed was convinced of that) but I believed and then Cook won and so maybe I can get surprised again and Danny will go home? If I believe...

Okay, after the nationwide vote, the first finalist is KRIS. OH MY GOD! I am so excited. I can't believe it and either can he! The judges are floored. Simon can eat his words. YES! Standing O from the judges. Danny or Adam? WOW. This is insane. Adam Lambert makes it in and now the judges don't have to think they are stupid. Whew. Now the show is exciting. WOW. I am floored. My votes counted again! I believed!

Oh now some sad moments for Danny. I really liked him - he was my front runner. Danny, you can still make it if you make it happen. You have your chance now -- go for it. I will support him. He is so good at this song. Went out with a bang. The judges have to say something to him. But they don't. Simon predicts a big ding dong next week. Okay...

Now I am excited for next week! Love how American Idol can bring it back! Til next week,

don't be ashamed of your obsessions...
