Kidgrouch passed on her stomach virus to me PLUS aches and fever, so I'll be brief...

Phil or Haley are the biggest losers. Phil was forgettable and Haley couldn't flash her bod enough to overcome what Simon correctly termed a "pagent-y" performance. One of them will leave.

Sanjaya was worse than last week but he'll probably make the cut.

If there were a darkhorse for elimination this week it might be Gina, but only because her performance, although technically good, was forgettable, but not as bad as Phil.

And I'll be danged if LaKisha didn't find a song made popular by two African American female singers! "Stormy Weather" was originally sung by Ethel Waters and made famous in the movie by the same name and sung by Lena Horne. But I think LaKisha has hit the wall of her ability. She'll still make the final six but after that who knows?

A brief commentary on the rest:

Melinda Doolittle: in her element!
Chris Richardson: Surprisingly good...for HIM!
Jordin Sparks: A fall off from last week, but still good.
Blake displayed his weak voice but compensated with style.

Excuse me... I think I hafta barf!!!!
