America has already chosen the Top 6 finalists on American Idol season 8. Here’s a recap. Alexis Grace, Michael Sarver and Danny Gokey dominated the first 3 seats on the top 13 while Allison Iraheta, Kris Allen, and Adam Lambert are also through to the next round. Do you think these top 6 finalists deserved their spot? On my opinion, they deserved it. They’ve performed their way to eraned the spot. Unlike some of the contestants, they are good but they picked the wrong songs that’s why they got voted out while others are playing it safe. Like what Randy Jackson said, they need to give their best on this elimination round to win the votes from the audiences. Well, those who were eliminated has another chance on the Wild Card round. 3 will be chosen to fill in the 3 remaining spot in the Top 13 finalists list.
