The great Paulini goes the way of the great Tamyra
Eerie similarities between this series and the first American Idol. Darn you, complacency! Earlier today, I predicted this result - Guy and Paulini bottom 2.

All I can say is I am utterly disgusted. I've just come home from a rehearsal for the CD launch, and I can barely bring myself to watch the verdict video. This has completely soured my whole obsession for this show. Can you even begin to imagine anyone other than Guy and Paulini at the Opera House, singing it out? Of course, this is great news for Guy fans. They will vote extra hard next week because of their scare this week, almost guaranteeing him a place in the final 2.

Man, first Bek, now Paulini. I'm backing Guy half-heartedly (he has previously been a favourite) though ugh. It's just not the same without Paulini. I'm so glad I got to see her sing LIVE for the final time at the Big Band show yesterday. What an absolute privilege.

Still can't bring myself to watch it. Visited the various message boards. The official AI board is typical nonsense and rudeness, though a lot of shock about Paulini. The Cosima board is just too sickly. I have never hidden the fact that I don't really appreciate Cosima as a singer or performer so you can just guess how I feel about some people gloating that they got her through by voting hundreds of times, even though they admitted she didn't sing well. The Paulini board is just so sad. I have tears in my eyes just being there. Haven't even watched it yet!

I'm still just so disgusted.
