So far here is how I rate them:
1. Lakisha - I have her at #1 b/c as far as I know she doesn't have the experiance like Doolittle has as a backup singer, and yet Lakisha has that dominating voice and stage presence like a 20 year pro. Still Lakisha is a slight notch up on Melinda.
2. Melinda - Great voice, great stage presence, basically almost everything I said about Lakisha applies to Melinda. Remember though, she has experiance as a backup singer and yet Lakisha stills sounds "slightly" better than her in IMO!
3. Jordin - She's gorgeous, great personality, but best of all -- she has a damm good voice!! Her laugh and overall personality reminds me of Selena. IMO Jordin is quickly catching up to Lakisha and Melinda.
4. Haley - I think she has a good voice but the top three are on another island. It's going to be difficult for her to gain some ground. Very pretty with knock out legs!! Not to mention she's from San Antonio!
5. Gina - I like her voice. She kind of grew on me b/c at first I didn't care for her b/c I was paying attention to the "others". She won't win AI but she'll make it as a rock artist. I would buy her cd. Reminds me of the Pretenders lead singer........what's her name?
6. Stephanie - Like Simon has said many times about remembering names, I keep forgetting hers. She has a good voice but nothing memorable. She doesn't have that "wow" factor. Still she is better, much better than any of the guys.
7. Chris Sligh - I think he has the best voice of the guys. He sings well and he looks very comfortable on stage.
8. Chris Richardson - He sings o.k. I guess. He has typical white boy moves when he dances, kind of goofy! Although he did sing that slow song very good yesterday.
9. Blake - I'm not impressed with this guy at all! He destroyed Diana Ross's song last week and I don't think he was all that great yesterday. He seems to want to add his wierd noise making rap sound efx to every song. I'm not a fan of his "kind" of music so maybe that's why I rate him low. I will say this about him, he does look like he's comfortable on stage, so that's a plus.
10. Phil - He's boring! He sings just o.k. Plus he doesn't seem comfortable up there, seems kind of awkward. He's better than Sanjaya though!!![]()
11. Sanjaya - Well what can I say? The guy should've been eliminated long ago! Kind of reminds of one the DeBarges. The DeBarges was a 80's family group.
Bottom three: Haley - I like her but my gut feeling
tells me she'll be there.

Going home: Phil
