American Idol Season 8 Episode 24: The Top 10 Results

Last night, the top 10 sang Motown, Kara said “artistry” about a million times, Paula gave Simon crayons and coloring books, Simon drew a mustache on Paula’s face, and Adam was awesome and hot and awesome. I would totally hit that if I thought Adam had any interest in ladies. And, you know, had any idea who I was. THIS…is American Idol!

Ryan’s pleased as punch to share that there were 36 million votes, the most received for the top 10 night in the history of the show. Ryan introduces the judges and mentions the shenanigans between Simon and Paula last night. He tells them to get a room and Simon shoots back, “We did.” Well, DUH. They are both single now and there are 8 years of pent-up unresolved sexual tension that needs to be released.

Motown medley group performance! I love how they’re not even pretending these aren’t pre-recorded anymore. This week’s “No, it’s totally live…well, maybe not.” conflicting stories were hilarious. I don’t care if they lipsynch, as long as there is still cheesy dancing. And on that note, Scott has better rhythm than Megan. That’s awesome.
