American Idol Season 8 Group 1 Elimination

Oh what an atrocious night. Anoop was eliminated to give way to Michael Sarver,he's really passing through because of pity votes. I don't like tonight episode at all. Danny is through because he's talented (I agree) plus overpimping from the judges (yuck!!) and his dead wife story (I'm bored to death).

Alexis Grace is through yet I don't think she has any capability at all in the Top 12 compared to previous season.

Carly Smithson and Michael Johns perform "The Letter" tonight. It's great. Even one of them could defeat the 3 people who go to Top 12 tonight easily.

I hope the judges pick Anoop Desai,Stevie Wright,Ann Marie Boskovich for the wild card. And give Tatiana a chance to entertain us too.

Next week: I think Adam Lambert and Matt Giraud are definitely good to go on Top 12,for the girls it might be Jasmine Murray if she performs really well.

I think that Ann Marie has a great voice. A lot of people said that she picked the wrong song but I think she picked it because she wanted to come out of her shell. This shows that she is a person that is willing to take risks and become more confident. Remember her audition? She was seen as shy in terms of star persona but now she seems more confident. She also has a genuine personality evident, she is always smiling and cheerful and she seems like a really fun person. She seems like a really humble person! She took the judges advices well on! During the group 1 performance, she almost transformed! Completely different look from her audition. She is also very attractive and this all adds up to a very likeable star persona. Although I'm sure that she can perform even better.
Her brother Anthony actually added me on FB! He seems like a really nice guy as well and he has been working so hard to try and recruit people to vote for her. He has been commenting everywhere, on FB, joining grouops, spreading news, voting tips, joining pages.
Unfortunately it didn't work out but I really think that she deserves to be in the top 12. I feel like she would do really well if she were given another chance.
I personally think that Anoop Desai, Ricky Braddy and Ann Marie Boskovich are the best picks for the wildcard for group 1 choices.
I really love Ann Marie and lots of people love her as well! Everyone loves their favourite contestant but there is just something that I really like able Ann Marie. I think that it would be an opportunity missed not to pick her for the wildcard round.



Ann Marie singing 'God Bless America' Now this is something that I would love to see on American Idol!:

A reminder of her widely talked about audition:

I really liked the way she sang in the group song, nice tone!



In terms of her personality, there have been many affirmations, inclusing the popular one from her ex english teacher:

"I am so grateful for the incredible amount of support for Ann Marie. Many of you have messaged and asked how I know her...simply, I was her English teacher in high school. I started this FB page as a way for her friends and family to communicate their support having no idea that it would take off the way it did. I am not a professional, nor did Ann Marie ever ask me to start this page for her or ask me to put any information on it. In fact, she didn't even know I started the page and is still overwhelmed by the response.

If you have the privilege of knowing Ann Marie, you were a fan long before her involvement with American Idol simply because she is just one of those special people with an amazing heart. There is no publicity machine here-simply a group of people who love her and want her to have an opportunity to bless others through her voice."



Some people have been hating saying that she has done previous music...I think every contestant has had something to do with music in the past!



Please consider Ann Marie! <333

Yeah,I agree with you.Ann Marie Boskovich deserved to be in the Wild Card Round,but I don't know if there are enough spots for her.I believe Tatiana will be picked to make the show more interesting.

Let's hope that Ann Marie got her spot.
