I think this shows that the show is rigged. She already had her remarks on Castro to give him the boot and just read them too early--after that, the producers had to regroup, decided that she could not repeat the critique or give Castro the boot this time--and she sang a different tune. The show is a scam, with producers and judges already deciding who will go, before they even sing--this only proved that.

Paula has been a real space cadet this season. She used to be a "sweetheart", but that has turned sour. She babbles so much it''s hard to follow her at times. If David & David do not make the finale - I believe the show is rigged. Not matter what - Ryan Seacrest keeps the show alive with his upbeat and compassionate personality.

She is nuts without the pills, but whatever she drops, just before the show must be on the DEA''s top 10 list.

SHE WASN''T AT THE REHEARSALS! The show is rigged and they are given scrips to read off their "comments". Paula is a bad liar and they whole joke is a joke on us and the wannabe contestants. Shame on you American Idol for lying to Americans all these years.

Does it really matter if the judges form a preliminary opinion from watching rehearsals or tapes of rehearsals ? I don''t think so.

What I do think is weird is that Simon''s opinions seem sometimes completely off the wall and totally wrong. For ex., I''m totally perplexed by the positive things he''s said about Jason Castro. I can''t believe he really thinks this guy is a good singer. I think Simon is told or has decided that occasional off-the-wall, totally contrary comments spice up the show and keep people interested. It''s a ploy and a sham. But I still like the show.

Voting seems rigged too. I can''t understand how Carly and Michael are gone and Jason and Brooke are still there. I also liked David Hernandez, who left way too early.

It''s the most boring show on TV, rife with stupidity...especially TV viewing audience.

So Paula made a mistake, big deal ! Is there anyone out there who hasn''t made a mistake in his/her life ? American Idol is still the #1 show on television and always will be. I watch the show religiously. I have my favorites as I am sure everyone does. I know Paula is taking medication, but so is over 3/4 of the nation, so what? Let Paula and the other judges alone, they are doing a wonderful job. I look forward to American Idol every year. Oh, and by the way, my favorite this year just in case anyone was wondering is "Jason Castro".
