Hi
My thoughts is on Blake the next American Idol. He has strong stage performance and style though vocally may not be as great as Jordin or Melinda. Sorry to disappoint you, Linda! but just my humble opinion.
I believe the audience are looking for an Idol so everything counts. Anyway I love watching the show and has been a keen fan for many years though I am in a 'faraway' land like Malaysia where we too have our own Idol.
Cheers
