Idol 2009: Will it be a Lambert v Gokey final?
Is this year's American Idol nudging towards an Adam Lambert/Danny Gokey final? An interesting comment on this blog post says:
This season, is toast. The producers want an Adam vs. Gokey final, and they'll get it. You should watch The Amazing Race. The producer contrivances are upfront and more people have an actual chance of winning.
If you consider that Adam and Danny have both had massive performances and were given the crucial show closer spots during their respective Top 36 nights. Does it look like they were favoured by the producers?
Lambert is proving a risk-taker. With his exotic twist on Ring Of Fire last week, he could easily have been voted out. But something in the camera angles and stage lighting seemed richer than what the other contestants got for their more conventional performances.
Gokey (who I have a mild irrational dislike for) is conventional, but more of a powerhouse performer. He's kind of Clarke Kent in the verses and Superman in the choruses.
The only evidence to counter this is that Alexis Grace got the same treatment in the top 36 round, but got voted off by the public. However, with the males outnumbering the females, are the rules different for Danny and Adam? We'll have to wait and find out.
