Folks, please take a minute to mourn this horrible moment in American Idol history. This is AWFUL. I am still in shock. I think the neighbors heard me scream my wretched NOOO!! when the news was announced. Ryan’s announcement was sort of drowned out for a second and it took me a minute to completely understand what he was saying. I could not believe it. And neither could Chris apparently. I knew the dialidol stats and yet I denied that everywhere I turned, they were saying Chris was leaving. Paula was devastated–ok, so Paula could be devastated over much less but that’s not the point. Simon even looked ticked–ok, so Simon always looks ticked but that’s not the point either. The point, the point is that CHRIS GOT VOTED OFF. UGH!!!!
