OK, to be honest, I was kind of expecting it, but it was still a shocker nonetheless!
On tonight's Wild Card show, eight rejected contestants were given a second chance at the "illustrious" Top 12. They were expecting only three spots to be open, so there was a lot of tension going in.
After everyone sang, the judges made their deliberations and chose Jazmine Murray and Megan Joy Corkey. Well into Hell's Kitchen, Matt Giraud and Anoop Desai were the two left standing. The judges said Matt's name, leaving everyone shocked since Anoop was clearly the crowd favorite. Just as the shock was about to set in, Simon amended the decision, declaring the change to a Top 13. That meant that Anoop was in!
So, talk about a shakeup (I blame EW.com for ruining the surprise for me)!
Here is the official Top 13:
Kris Allen
Megan Corkrey
Anoop Desai
Matt Giraud
Danny Gokey
Alexis Grace
Allison Iraheta
Adam Lambert
Scott MacIntyre
Jasmine Murray
Jorge Nuñez
Lil Rounds
Michael Sarver
Starting next week, I will be officially covering American Idol Season 8, offering my opinion on the song choices, performances, guests, and of course the results.
