In a surprise, Stephanie Edwards - one of this season’s best singers - was voted off the top-rated talent contest Wednesday, while weak and sometimes unwatchable performers Sanjaya Malakar and Haley Scarnato were allowed to stay.
The untimely departure of Edwards, 19, of Savannah, Ga., narrowed the number of “Idol” contestants to 10. The winner will be chosen in May.Simon Cowell said on Tuesday’s show Edwards’ rendition of Dusty Springfield’s “You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me” lacked the edginess and youthful energy she brought to her previous performances.
Paula Abdul echoed that sentiment, telling Edwards she should have “more fun” onstage.

The American Idol results are quite disappointing. I thought Stephanie Edwards would stay long enough . We know that it’s not just talent that makes them stay. She must have lacked some die-hard fans.
Based on last night’s voting, 30 million votes were cast.
1.Phil, Melinda, and Blake ARE NOT the bottom three.
2.Chris S, LaKisha, Jordin ARE also NOT in the bottom three.
3. Sanjaya, Haley, Gina? Nope, NOT the bottom three.
Which only means one thing:
Chris R and Stephanie ARE the bottom two.
