It was hard for Cara to justify the song she picked for Casey. Even Simon had better sense than that. He was laughing at her choice the whole time. Also, why is Crystal always praised for her individuality in choosing a song.

If Lee doesn't win....... something is wrong especially after his 2nd song. Good job Simon for picking that song and Lee for absolutely nailing it!

N-O-T-H-I-N-G WILL HELP BOWER-SUX TILL SHE GETS HER HEAD SHAVED, THE PIERCING RIPPED OUT AND THE TATTOOS REMOVED.....WHAT A SKANK.....AND THAT SCREAMING OFF KEY SHE DOES!

I think the entire thing is fake

Bowersox looks like an unmade bed>>can't Idol have done something with that awaful looking hair! It is horrible and I agree
with her look is nasty also!
Not what i would call American idol look!

I have not yet seen whats sooo hot about Crystal Bowersox! She cant take the critisisum, without something smart to say, she allways looks "dirty", and all though Im not a Paul McCartney fan, I do like the song Amazed, but what she did to it sucked.I think Lee has improved a great deal, and has it in him to do well. Cassey, is just cute as hell, and a good guitar player. I think all in all Lee should win this thing!

All comments thus far are right on......There really isn't anyone to pick from this season......The worst yet...Where's all the talent Idol spent $$ on with multi auditions,etc........Simon is smart getting out NOW!!!!!!!!!!

Love Barbara's comment........Bowersox does look like "an unmade bed".......Hope there aren't any critters in that mop!

Kara totally set up Casey to fail. Every week she demeans him with comments about his looks. He is very talented. Yes, he is very nice to look at, but since when is that a bad thing? Out of the remaining three, he will have the largest career, win or lose.

Beauty Secrets?? This season has had the worst group I have ever seen....nothing wrong with the looks God gave them but they look like they could use a good bath...especially Bowersox...This year sucked...Not one idol worth rooting for or against!

Could they do something with Crystal's hair it is a disaster her hair looks mated and dirty
does she ever wash her hair. In all she sings ok but Lee is the best singer.......

These aren't tips on how to be beautiful, they are tips on what makeup will cover-up your ugly face the best.

Are these make up tips for television only or does it also apply in real life??

Every week I keep thinking that someone will tell Crystal that her stupid hair is SO over. Even black people don't wear those locks anymore. Don't you just want to see her come out with no stud in her lip, long flowing shiny, CLEAN hair, glam makeup and a softer, more grownup outfit.....maybe a black sequin dress with a slit up the leg,. I think at this point if she doesn't change her look Lee is going to take it.....and he should.

I think all of you readers who give such bad comments on Crystal should take a good look in the mirror. You must be my Great Grandmothers age if you can't accept her look (and I am 66 yrs).
Give the girl her credit for being an individual, as well as having a great voice. How many of you fools are going to be on the 2011 Idol? I'm sure you must be very talented as well as critics.

Crystal's dirty hair matches her dirty teeth.

crystal needs ot run thru a carwash without her car..my 4yr nephew calls her the dirty one with the yellow teeth..

I agree about Crystal she is a Janis Joplin want to be not that I really ever liked her either to be honest! Lee is good but is starting to act with a big head! Casey I agree Kara set him up!! BIG TIME!!!! You can tell who Simon likes!

I'm somewhat wondering about the whole make-up thing. The article sounds like all those guys are being magically transformed into etheral beauties, but they sure look plain as toast to me. That's ok for the guys, but I'd expect a bit more color in Crystal's face. She so far has gotten make-up that just blends in; I can't see anything "pop" in her face, try as hard as I might!
As for who's going to win...I think it will be Lee. Crystal is good but stuck too much in her Janis Joplin routine. She also has had some not so great performances over the last past weeks. Casey is pretty good as well, but he can't get out of his Joe Cocker/Huey Lewis shtick either. Lee has been improving continuously while in Hollywood, and while I usually never liked the song "Hallelujah" much, he sang a version that actually had me listening. I think he also took a cue from Adam Lambert, incorporating the stage, lighting, and back-up singers in his performance. Very well done.

I cannot believe the critics here on Crystal and her hair. Like she can't make a change down the road when she makes it big. We forget her stage presence; her dynamic musical ability; her outstnding voice and vocal range; and her experience..... The absolute MOST talented out of the group by far and should be all out winner for this years "Idol". She is just fantastic!!!!!!!!!!! Lee has no stage presence but is talented, acts like a frightened child up there, very difficult to even smile. Casey is not real exciting either, actually slightly boring as his songs have been over the past weeks. Probably will go tonight, leaving Crystal and Lee for the finals.......
