Well, after last night her base rose (pun intended) and I suspect increased in size (somebody stop me!)

I would say that she brought out the big guns last night, putting everything she had out there for the judges and the audience. No doubt her fan base felt more invigorated after that performance and will likely be more stimulated to vote for her.

Yes, seriously...she listened to Simon. Before last week she was lost in the crowd, good voice but not on a par with the "big guns" and stage presence was unremarkable. She tried last week but got hurt by lapse in memory which then caused some pitch problems...Simon giving her a decent review I think gave her self-confidence, I suspect she thought if he thought that performance wasn't so bad then maybe...! She came out last night and sang her absolute best to date, the outfit would have been over the top for most but with her figure, she pulled it off! The way she moved...especially the little upper torso shakes HAD to get the attention of EVERY male not on the Bob Doyle mailing list! This was a great performance...naughty yet wholesome, full of life with vocals surpassed only by Melinda and Jordin! I thought this would be the week that would make or break her...how would she react to last week? In my opinion, she knocked it out of the park!

And she could have botched it if it wasn't handled right. Like you said wholesome but naughtly.

QUESTION IS: DID ANY OF YOU THAT ARE "TALKING" ABOUT HER ACTUALLY VOTE LAST NIGHT?

For what it's worth, I was interested in how the "phone-in votes" ranking system I've been using would rank the final 11 based on their performances since I started ranking them, which was the round of 20 I believe. These are the cumulative totals and rankings through four weeks of ranking them. I think it's pretty darn close to how I feel overall -- the top is very obvious, the bottom couple are very obvious, and everyone in the middle is a crapshoot!
Totals: 1. Melinda -- 39.0 phone-in votes 2. Jordin -- 38.0 phone in votes 3. Lakisha -- 35.0 phone-in votes 4. Stephanie -- 32.0 phone-in votes 4. Blake -- 32.0 phone-in votes 6. Chris S. -- 30.5 phone-in votes 7. Gina -- 30.01 phone-in votes 8. Chris R. -- 29.0 phone-in votes 9. Haley -- 27.0 phone-in votes 10. Phil -- 26.0 phone-in votes 11. Sanjaya -- 21.0 phone-in votes

Well, the only problem is that this will come down, as most contests do, to what have you done lately. I was bored today so I went to some news sites that had articles on last night, some interesting things I noted...those who wrote in (and I assume folks writing in are likely to vote)...mentioned Sanjaya more than all the others combined...about 60% favorably (the other 40%, in touch with reality, saw him for what he is). I'm afraid that this kid will be around awhile...he has a huge teenybopper following! A lot of attention to the little girl crying with lots of insulting remarks but one poster who claimed that she was there as part of Make a Wish Foundation...wonder how folks who see the necessity to poke fun at her will feel if that's true? Then again, they will probably feel nothing...as usual. People making fun of Melinda for not having a neck...interesting! All in all, it appears from the comments that Phil, Stephanie and Gina could be in trouble tonight...we'll see!

Brian, She was good enough for top 12 I think but no, she wouldn't have won. It turns out that Haley has a bigger stronger voice than her. Certainly Antonella was better than half the top 6 guys...at least!

Sorry to interrupt, 1st time caller, Long time listener...She may be cute, her voice may carry, but don't you think she should have sang on key...don't you think that is why she no longer is on the show? Her voice definitely was not a strength. That's all, Good Day!!

I don't think Antonella was experiencing pitch problems any more than several others....I think the major factor for her was she simply did nothing to stand out! The internet pictures may have hurt her...or they may have helped or had no effect, impossible to say. Antonella has talent, perhaps she held back because of the pictures, perhaps not...I thought she could have made top 12, I fully agree she was not gonna win against 4-5 women with stronger voices!
