American Idol Finale: Scotty McCreery vs. Lauren Alaina Performance Live
It’s May 24, 2011, and here we are on a different night than our usual meetings. So scandalous! Not really, but it is a little sad that this is the last week I will be seeing all of you guys, though I think we’re all about Idol-ed out at this point.
Nonetheless, let’s see how the night goes and pick a winner, shall we?
Round One: Contestants’ Favorite Song of the Season
Performer: Scottie McCreey
Song: “Gone”
Vote: 1-866-IDOLS-01, 1-866-IDOLS-03, 1-866-IDOLS-05, 1-866-IDOLS-07
Performer: Lauren Alaina
Song: “Flat on the Floor”
Vote: 1-866-IDOLS-02, 1-866-IDOLS-04, 1-866-IDOLS-06, 1-866-IDOLS-08
Round Two: Celebrity Picks (Carrie Underwood for Lauren and George Strait for Scotty)
Performer: Scotty McCreery
Song: “Check Yes or No”
Vote: 1-866-IDOLS-01, 1-866-IDOLS-03, 1-866-IDOLS-05, 1-866-IDOLS-07
Performer: Lauren Alaina
Song: “Maybe it was Memphis”
Vote: 1-866-IDOLS-02, 1-866-IDOLS-04, 1-866-IDOLS-06, 1-866-IDOLS-08
Judges Weigh-In:
Randy: This will be a really hard decision, you guys are so even, but round one goes to Scotty, and round two goes to Lauren.
J-Lo: It was such an explosive start from both of you, but I’m with Randy.
Steven: First and second round to Lauren, but only because she’s prettier.
Performer: Scotty McCreery
Song: “I Love You This Big”
Judges: Randy: This song was the perfect song for you because you sang low and high. It is game time, and that was a brilliant vocal.” J-Lo: “I think you did an amazing job with that song.” Steven: “You take chances, and you nailed it again.”
Vote: 1-866-IDOLS-01, 1-866-IDOLS-03, 1-866-IDOLS-05, 1-866-IDOLS-07
Performer: Lauren Alaina
Song: “Like My Mother Does”
Judges: Randy: “That was an amazing song choice, and I love how at the end it’s the Lauren we grew to love in Nashville.” J-Lo: “With that song, you may have just won.” Steven: “I thought you were my American Idol the first time I saw you.”
Vote: 1-866-IDOLS-02, 1-866-IDOLS-04, 1-866-IDOLS-06, 1-866-IDOLS-08
Randy gives slight edge to Lauren
J-Lo says too close to call
Steven says hands-down Lauren

hello
2 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:04 pm
VFTW is claiming that if Lauren can’t sing, Haley could take her place.
What the crap is Lauren wearing?
3 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:05 pm
Okay, let’s bring out the doctor, that’ll milk some votes.
4 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:06 pm
Which season of American Idol did George Strait win? American Idol BC?
5 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:10 pm
It’s taken me this long, but I’m kind of over Lauren. I might just vote for Scotty.
6 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:11 pm
Hey Nathan, Taco Bell: Most bumpin’ song in fast food.
7 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:12 pm
What was that pageant move she just did?
8 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:12 pm
Well her vocal cordes seem fine
9 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:16 pm
Here I am! Of course, I’m not actually getting to watch idol…but you can keep me up to date.
Jeb, I might have a treat to email you shortly. Took Foe-Eva!
10 dianne // May 24, 2011 at 8:17 pm
they both are great but being a North Carolina born and bread I am hoping that Scotty bring it home love u Scotty
11 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:17 pm
I have to admit not Lauren s best
12 Casey Ja-a-a-a-m-e-s Judges Save // May 24, 2011 at 8:18 pm
Jebs, you can’t vote for Scotty you know that. Though that was possibly rude, it was the appropriate Machiavellian move. I can appreciate that.
13 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:18 pm
Cool Lindsey, send it on. Hey, everyone!
14 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:18 pm
Why, I can vote for Scotty if I want to.
15 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:19 pm
Merry go round!!
16 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:19 pm
Bleh, I’d much rather Lauren win. Scotty is so terribly limited.
17 Casey Ja-a-a-a-m-e-s Judges Save // May 24, 2011 at 8:21 pm
2 reasons, Lauren is local and she is better than Scotty.
18 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:21 pm
Jeb, There is a chance the file might be to big to email…
19 Casey Ja-a-a-a-m-e-s Judges Save // May 24, 2011 at 8:21 pm
Also, the deep put on thank yous are annoying.
20 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:22 pm
I’m totally with uuuuuu!!!
21 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:22 pm
No judges’ weigh-ins tonight? Have they realized that the judges are useless?
Here, let me interim:
Steven: “That was beautiful, man.”
J-Lo: “Your tone was really great, I’d just like to see a little more follow-through next time.”
Randy: Lauren and Scotty are in it to win it right here dawgs!”
Now, where’s my $50 million check?
22 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:23 pm
Lauren has been my favorite since the auditions !!!!!!!:)
23 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:23 pm
Do you think she possibly lost her voice because she had to come visit POLLEN FREAKIN’ CENTRAL.
Maybe she should have skipped the riverside.
24 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:24 pm
I know, but I’ve been reading lots of apparent first-hand accounts of Lauren being one of those “mean girls” who is awful to gays…I’m having reservations. Plus I’m sick of every local commercial and business sign that says “VOTE FOR LAUREN!”
What is it, Lindsey?
25 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:25 pm
Go Lauren !!!
26 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:25 pm
Speaking of pageant…..
27 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:26 pm
Also, I just got that she lost her voice from a local news channel. As stated before, I’m not getting to watch it so if she’s doing well then Hizzah! the sinus inflaming, snot fertilizing, pollen crud didn’t get her.
28 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:27 pm
Why can’t you watch it? The boys?
29 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:28 pm
“it’s so even”
30 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:28 pm
Scotty round 1
31 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:29 pm
It’s a lame surprise. How goes Idol?
And I heard from a first hand person that she’s super nice to developmentally and physically challenged people. that has to count for something.
32 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:29 pm
Lauren round 2
33 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:30 pm
1 and 2 round to Lauren
34 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:30 pm
Yeah, I’m watching some sort of claymation show about a sheep….and by watching I mean trying to ignore it while i type on here.
35 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:32 pm
Now it’s time for…Taio Cruz? Is he competing, or is this his Coke song? I don’t know, but the robotic dancing drummer guys are cool.
36 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:32 pm
Lindsey Who u trying to ignore ???
37 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:33 pm
Hope so…she just seems typical North Georgia person to me, I think I’ve just hit Lauren Alaina overload.
38 Casey Ja-a-a-a-m-e-s Judges Save // May 24, 2011 at 8:33 pm
Aly, Lindsey is trying to ignore watch her boys are watching.
39 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:34 pm
Oh
40 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:35 pm
So wHo thinks Lauren will win ??? Scotty ????
41 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:36 pm
I’m ignoring a horrid children’s show. And I love cartoons. So…this is bad…
42 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:37 pm
It’s not that thing on the Jesus channel, is it? I saw something on the Jesus channel the other day that was like Moral Oral, but…serious. I didn’t know it was based off an actual show.
43 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:37 pm
And of course I finally get to flip over to AI and my dog steps on the remote and has done something to the TV.
44 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:37 pm
“if Scotty wins”
45 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:39 pm
He’s talking bout his life ??!!!
46 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:39 pm
Lauren’s song is a reject song from Kristy Lee Cook’s CD…if it didn’t work for Kristy Lee, who was in…what place?, why would they use it again?
47 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:40 pm
I can guarantee you both of these songs will wind up on US101 regardless.
48 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:40 pm
Maybe it’s a good song
49 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:43 pm
Theres some compition for Lauren ………:(
50 TB // May 24, 2011 at 8:44 pm
I am so ridiculously over Lauren. I don’t care how local she is.
51 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:45 pm
Who are you, TB? Reveal thineself! :p
52 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:45 pm
How can I spend forever labeling my HD channels and then my dog just has to walk over the remote and suddenly all the lables are gone. GRrr.

53 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:45 pm

54 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:45 pm
BAD DOG!
55 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:46 pm
She’s 20
56 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:46 pm
Thanks
57 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:46 pm
OH, maybe it’s my new staff accountant. His initials are TB and he likes country. lol.
58 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:47 pm
Lol
59 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:48 pm
I don’t know, all I can think about is “Tuberculosis” when I see “TB”
60 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:48 pm
Awe, a mommy song.
61 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:48 pm
She has such a sweet voice !!!
62 Casey Ja-a-a-a-m-e-s Judges Save // May 24, 2011 at 8:49 pm
61 hd is out for us but it is 61-1
63 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:50 pm
Owe she’s crying
64 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:51 pm
Maybe it’s the Tuberculosis that is out to get Lauren’s voice!
65 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:51 pm
Amazing !!
66 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:51 pm
Mommy’s getting more camera time than Lauren.
67 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:52 pm
YeaH
68 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:52 pm
Well, Maybe if she doesn’t win Steven will hook her up with a contract
69 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:53 pm
Top 2 are guaranteed record deals.
70 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:54 pm
She will get a record deal anyway
71 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:55 pm
Randy gives slight edge to Lauren
J-Lo says too close to call
Steven says hands-down Lauren
So, what do y’all think? Who will win tomorrow night? We only have to sit through 2 hours and 7 minutes tomorrow night to find out!
72 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:55 pm
Hope Lauren Wins !! Best Luck Lauren !!
73 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:56 pm
BOOOOO!!! David Cook’s “Don’t You Forget About Me”
74 Aly // May 24, 2011 at 8:57 pm
Only 2 hours and seven minutes !!!!:/
75 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 8:57 pm
Why do they insist on butchering one of my favorite songs? I turned the TV promptly off, thank you very much.
76 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:57 pm
I forgot about the crazy chick…I hope she shows up tomorrow for the finale.
77 Jebbica // May 24, 2011 at 8:58 pm
Cait will have to fill me in on why David Cook’s supposed to be so great. I think he is suck-ola. Gaspy Archuleta could sing better than he can, for sure.
78 lindsey.awesomeness // May 24, 2011 at 9:01 pm
Well, I’m done here. Good night Internets! I’m going to get some nicotine.
79 Patman // May 25, 2011 at 10:15 am
I am sick of Lauren Alaina…I wish she had dropped out so Haley could have taken on Scotty.
