this week on "why you won't be my next american idol"...

welcome to why you won't be my next american idol. i'm your host - an almost perfectly punctual karen seacrest.

it's finally the time we've all been waiting for. the night where the prediction i made oh so many weeks ago has come to past. it is - the season - of the davids. but before we go there - we have business to address first....

this week on "why you won't be my next american idol" we say so long to someone who in all honestly shouldn't have been in the top three in the first place. that's right. hit the road syesha mercado. syesha - you won't be my next american idol because the cycle 9 winner of america's next top model was saleisha stowers. it's too easy to confuse the two of you. you kinda look a little alike. you both have that rihanna thing going on. and we don't even need to mention how similar your names are. you can't both win reality shows where the theme is finding the best "insert talent here" in america. it's just too weird!

so that leaves david. and david. i really hope david wins. david cook of course. he rocks. and he's from missouri. and there has yet to be any weird news hit about david cook. or his dad. and he's just plain better!

vote for david cook!!!!

until next week when we crown david cook the next american idol and i take the cake in my idol bracket by accurately predicting the winner for the first time - this is karen seacrest. out.
