Sorry - but Jamar out at the expense of at least two other singers is wrong! Comments?

    If you can...you might want to edit your title. It hasn't aired in the UK, yet.

    Real reason why Jamar is out because they wanted to create drama between Danny and Jamar when one of them got eliminated, that is the only reason. He definately was good enough to make it, the producers do shady stuff like this all the time. Disregarding real talent just to show some drama.

    To be honest I was just surprised they didn't make them sing off against one another...

    It was obvious it was just done for the "drama".
    Especially when Paula asked if he'd come back next year.

    Doh!

    This doesn't air in the UK until tonight. I'm not going to have a hissy fit about it but some people rightly really don't want to know spoilers.

    Putting in the thread title may get you some flak...

    It really does spoil it doesn't it? I don't know the full list but I am sure that when I watch there will be more than one put through purely for entertainment value and nothing else. Tatianna seems an obvious candidate for example!

    Ok, they are probably not replacing an eventual winner but even so it seems to devalue the whole thing by diluting the overall pool of talent.

    Very disappointing IMO.

    Not surprised to hear this when it was obvious from the judges mutterings when picking the people to go through in yesterday's show when Randy commented on a girl being only 16 as if this was a reason to not put someone through and also one of the judges saying about their being too many girls and they need to even it up, so for even it up's sake they sacrifice a couple of the girls to let some average guys through. (haven't seen tonight's show by the way, but they always have an equal number of boys and girls and it bothers me!)

    Yeah it's just a couple of days behind so it's not too big a delay - that's why I don't bother watching it online.

    Oh well, at least you can do something else with your Friday evening now. :D That's not as bad as me during the X Factor final - I had a party that night so was planning on watching the repeat, then on my way home this woman came down the train and announced "Alex won the X Factor"! Let's just say I wasn't happy. :mad:

    To be fair to the OP, it's an easy mistake to make if you don't know about the different broadcast times... (especially when they keep changing them!) Wonder if they could put something at the top of the forum about spoilers?

    In my opinion they dumped Jamar so as not to split the vote with Danny when the public start phoning in. Otherwise who will their friends and people from their town chose? I think they have Danny down as a potential winner and don't want to risk anything. This way everyone they both know will just keep on dialling Danny's number and Jamar gets to come back next year due to the stage he was eliminated. That's the only thing I can come up with because I thought he was great and much better than many others like Alex who were more bland.

    They couldnt risk putting him through cos they knew he would be popular and might knock out one of the chosen ones. If it was based on vocals he should be on the show though.

    mrs.deschanel - Good points, but I think Tiffani has hit the nail on the head. In fact I said the same thing on another thread. I hope Jamar goes away, gets lots of experience and comes back next year to prove the judges were wrong.

    I thought exactly that too, also it's a very intense friendship, they want them split up because they'd become a 'force' between the two of them in the group chemistry, and one of them might crumple later when the other went. But I think you're right, they were both in danger of going out too soon because they'd split the vote between them.

    I was totally gutted about Jamar!
    He was one of the best by far!

    I really wanted Jamar to get through. He was one of the ones I remembered. It was annoying seeing all these other people getting through who they hadn't shown any clips of. Hopefully he will try again next year.

    They're the ones you should be cheering on as they've got through on talent alone and aren't the producers chosen ones or plants.

    I'd go along with this, it's a real shame, as I thought Jamar was really good, a bit different too. It was quite annoying sitting watching some go through who weren't as good.

    And also the annoying ones going through too, Tatiana & Nathaniel, ok I know they have good voices, but their personalities seem so false & very over the top, but I suppose the producers want that sort of thing, to add more entertainment, at the cost of the nice guys!

    I was shocked. He's got a great voice and an individual style, he could have gone far.

    Hopefully, some record producers will have seen him on AI and offer him a deal anyway.

    I dont think they wouldve split votes. They can put them in different groups, guaraNTEEING both make the top 12. And after that, one of them will eventually be eliminated. So either way, one of them coulve easily won, with both in the competition. I think it was ovious they only did it for the OMG factor. The reacction they got from the other contestants. It really makes a bit of a joke out of the show to be honest. Very dissapointing

    I really liked him, i was so shocked when he didn't make the cut, i thought he stood out more than some of the others who got through. Loved his rendition of 'Deliah' during Hollywood week, infact, loved everything he did during Hollywood week, and was looking forward to seeing him in the live shows. :(
