Siobahn Magnus Booted From American Idol

April 28 saw Siobahn Magnus unceremoniously dumped from American Idol. Siobahn, Casey, and Mike were the bottom 3 on the American Idol voting results April 28 installment. There was no save for her, so the contestant from Marstons Mills, Massachusetts, (an alliterative place to come from) was sent packing. She had never been within the bottom three before.

And Siobahn Magnus has struck out

Siobahn Magnus had not yet been in the bottom three, but she had certainly had some rocky performances. That said, this one was a bit of a shocker. Siobahn was very easily one of the most original of this year. It might are expected she wouldn’t win, but it still wasn’t expected.

Five remain

The five contestants remaining are Mike Lynche, Aaron Kelly, Lee DeWyze, Casey James and Crystal Bowersox. This year had been predicted to be a girls’ year, but the guys rebounded. The irony here is that Mike Lynche, or Large Mike as he's been affectionately dubbed, has been within the bottom 3 almost consistently. Casey James is also starting to get a bit old. Crystal Bowersox, or Mamasox as she's been nicknamed, is apparently the hands down favored to win, and a little quick cash on her to win would be a safe bet.

The viewers have spoken

In fairness, she had some off nights. Her version of “Any Man of Mine” was a step within the right direction, but too little too late. She had been getting a little screechy. The week to week performances are what matter, and despite how awesome her version of “Paint it Black” she had slipped a bit afterwards. The viewers decided they had had it, and also the only performer on American Idol season 9 approaching interesting is done.
