AuntTami Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 I am so sorry if this is not the right place to ask, but I’m trying to update my voting graphics for this week and I cannot figure out when the voting will end. It’s a three hour show so does it end an hour later than normal or is the process different in the finale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alejandro was TCO. But he was from CA. And Lane was from the part of the Country that had produced the majority of the Idol winners.

They’re also both pop singers from California. I’m just giving y’all something to think about, since I’m starting to sense a degree of overconfidence. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be a lot of filler that clogs up the night with the contestants' solos being dispersed intermittently through the night. DO NOT THINK you can get away with waiting until the 3rd hour to vote though 'cause after 2 songs, Idol will cut the third-place finisher, denying that contestant the opportunity to perform his/her third song.

MalwareDie Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 4 minutes ago, AuntTami said: California time of course I would say to vote as soon as the show opens since you already know who you'll be voting for. While there haven't haven't been any major voting glitches during the live shows since they've been implemented, you never know when something off kilter might happen, so you should be as determined as possible to vote early. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a three hour show so does it end an hour later than normal or is the process different in the finale? for finale night, voting “freezes” midway thru the show after 2 rounds of performances so they can announce who’s on 3rd place on the voting and eliminate that person from the running. then voting reopens and usually closes right before the final break after the final 2 finishes performing for one last time. i would recommend get people to vote as soon as the show starts to improve her odds of avoiding 3rd place.

He dominated Laine on social media. I didn’t follow google trends that season but I remembering finding laine’s win extremely obvious because he was destroying everyone on facebook and instagram. his fan girls were crazy. i never really entertained anyone other than him winning.

I would not say it is Will's to lose. My honest opinion? I think it’s too close to call. She has the most momentum and overall best stats but she also has the most working against her when considering the Idol voting demographic so this equals the playing field quite a lot. For team minivan to look at the Top 2 and be like “lemme vote for the male contestant”, it doesn’t take a lot.

mytake1 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 (edited) The so-called "best singer" isn't always the most marketable. The music industry is looking for people who can sell original music, not cover singers. And they could care less about where somebody ranked on the show. The monster success of Benson Boone says it all. Edited May 17 by mytake1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KelseyW Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Also. If I were good enough to get on the Kelly Clarkson show, late night programs. And whatnot. I'd take it to the musical bank with promo. lol Ah well. Scotty, Nick F, (If I'm remembering correctly) Fantasia, David Archie. All were on Kelly's show recently. It's the show you WANT to get promo on. I'm surprised more Idol alumni members haven't been on there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
