Top 6 Results Show Recap (Courtesy of MJ’s Big Blog)

Casey Abrams is eliminated from American Idol

Live blogging the American Idol 10 Top 6 results right here!

  • Watch the East Coast live feed HERE.

Crystal Bowersox sings “Riding On the Radio” plus Bruno Mars performs!

Ryan says, “A lot of fans are going to be disappointed with tonight’s results. It’s the hardest part of the week.”

Ryan pimps Steven’s People magazine and Rolling Stone covers. The kids attended a function at the British Consulate for Brit week a few days ago. It’s all about fish out of water people, as the idols make their way around the party.

The Top 6 sing a medley of Carole King hits. Whoa. Pitch problems for the win. This is pretty high-larious. Scotty singing “Go Away LIttle Girl” surrounded by teeny-boppers. HOT MESS AHEAD! I LOVE THE GROUP NUMBER!

Ford Music Video: “Our House” In the middle of our street…la la la.

Crystal Bowersox takes the stage to sing “Ridin’ on the Radio.” Whoa pedal steel guitar. She’s really moving toward a country sound, isn’t she? Interesting. Casey bopping up and down! Ha. Totally AWESOME performance from Crystal. She’s got such ease up there. Season 9 didn’t totally suck (And actually, Lee was really good when he performed on Idol too.)

Twitter Q&A with the contestants. Casey would like to do a duet with Oscar Peterson, jazz pianist. Jacob discovered range in his voice at 7 in church. Lauren says the hardest thing about the contest is missing her friends and family she sends a shoutout to people who were affected by the tornadoes. Scotty worked with him mom at the local tanning salon. James says he played with a few bands before Idol. He’s always got a project going on. Haley’s favorite Idol is…she can’t pick one. She namechecks Adam Lamber, Siobhan, Kelly Clarkson, Lee DeWyze & Crystal Bowersox. “No Taylor Hicks” deadpans Ryan. MEAN.

Results! Haley Reinhart takes center stage. We see a recap of her performance & judges comments. Jimmy weighs in via video. “Haley doesn’t know who she is yet. If she goes home it’s because of that. Haley was bleeped. “Watch you mouth, young lady” says Ryan.  Haley is irritated by Jimmy’s assessment. She knows who she is…  HALEY IS SAFE! Hooray.

Scotty McCreery is center stage. Same video recap of his performance. Jimmy says, “Character, strength and confidence. He has a subtly that is magnificent. Jimmy is worried his subtlety  will be overlooked.” Scotty agrees. “Sometimes people are looking for glory notes.”   Ryan tells Scotty to sit down for a minute.

Lauren Alaina takes center stage.  Video recap and then Jimmy says, “Lauren only hears the negative in the critique. She has a poise when she is confident.” He predicts Lauren is here for a long time.  Lauren agrees, all she thinks of the negative stuff.  He ask her to take a seat.

Casey Abrams is next. Video recap, and then Jimmy says, “Casey is a great musician, will go on to be a great singer/songwriter. The family dog does not vote!” Jimmy doesn’t like the growling, but thinks he will be safe. Asks Casey to sit back down on the couch.

Time for a break! Who is in…who is out…you may be surprised, says Ryan.

James Durbin is next. Video recap, and then Jimmy basically says–say hello to the HAC format, dude! James is SAFE.

Jacob Lusk is next. Video recap, “In AI it’s not just the voice. You need the whole voice. Jacob could still possibly go home. He’s on banana peel status. “  Jacob is sent back to the couch.

We have to start comparing the kids to each other says, Jimmy. It’s a horse race.

Lauren Alaina is safe. I’m glad, because I could not have taken the conspiracy theories afterward.

Scotty, Casey and Jacob were sent back to the couch, but never declared bottom 3.  Shenanigans, people. Nigel’s playing with us.

Bruno Mars is next.  This segment was taped a few weeks ago.

THE RESULTS ARE IN RANDOM ORDER TONIGHT. Jacob is SAFE. WTF? Gah. Will the nightmare never end? Scotty and Casey are left. And of course, Casey is toast. UGH UGH UGH. Damn.

Safe
