    Just Amazing! And Jessica didn’t win?

  • dougenn

    out of this world performance by Ms Holliday and for Jessica to be able to hold her ground beside this brilliant performer … speaks a lot of what she is capable of doing and more after AI … she did not win idol but she absolutely earned her official divahood title tonight

    how amazing the duet and the power of the voice……but it’s so sad to us filipino that america didn’t vote jassica to win…..but still we’re proud of her bcoz she has an incredible voice….

  • Anonymous

    She more than held her own during that performance. But no need to wonder why she didn’t win, I’m sure she’ll make it far. Winning doesn’t always mean success.

    We were quite frightened. I thought it was an excellent performance, and would play great as a SNL skit.

  • Randomlibra

    OMG stop bringing race into everything. It is sad to me, a human being, that someone like Jessica has no gotten tons of exposure and will most certainly have a wonderful career and all you can do is find the negative in it and turn it into a racial thing. Just stop.

  • Randomlibra

    It is a popularity contest, but the smart contestants know that it is exposure to millions of people, including producers and record executives, so the most talented, even if they don’t win, do well after.

  • Tita Mila

    We were there and totally incredulous that such powerful performances are possible. They brought down the house! This will be talked about for years to come.

  • xoxox

    and she didn’t win…. thank you for those little girls who voted for the guy that they desperately wanted to sleep with but wont get it…

  • TheVoice

    WOW!!! WOW!!! WOW!!! It really brought me tears. It’s incridibly unbelievable. What amazing voice they have both. It’s a pity Jessica didn’t win. She deserved to win. It shows again that American Idol is a popularity contest and that most of the callers are giggling girls who are very shallow.

    tears here too… and I am in Brazil… and that Home Singer won?! I think they failed Jessica at American Got Talent when she was a kid and now in American Idol. Call me back in ten years and check who is going to be a voice around the world: that little Sanchez, of course. She DOES sing. And she is sweet. There is no sense in giving PP the crown. Little Boy will be remembered as the one who took an underserved first place.

  • Rick

    The talk of the town is about this, Jessica’s performance with JH, not PPs crowning glory..ha..ha..ha..GOOD Jessica. In about a year or two, we will ask: “where is PP?” and JS is all over…that is American Idol ! where are the past White Guys with Guitars? …oh…they are around…not in in Billboard charts!! what a shame !!

  • Tolentino59

    it is really amazing what a wonderful voice of jessica .you are the real winner even philip is popular american idol you are great singer ever.

  • Christinercervantes

    Jessica is really amazing…..

  • wondering

    so why didn’t jessica get the top vote?

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000026784216 Tony Salcedo

    Check out the “vote for the worst singer on AI” they are the reason why we have 5 WGWG consecutive winners. They really did it again….How sad coz the winner is not going anywhere just like the other four.. I’ll take it back looks like Mc Creery is doing something.

  • mynameisjayee

    the reason she lose is because of some Filipino who always brags… Proud to be Filipino, Proud to be Filipino, blah blah blah… shut up and watch the show… and she is a Fil-Mexican… and she is so PROUD TO BE AMERICAN CITIZEN !

  • Joy

    The producers used Jessica as a hook to increase Filipino and Latin viewership in the states. They had no intention of making her win. And that ploy of her being eliminated and then saved? Give me a break! I wonder where all those horny teen age girls are going to be when Phillip’s album comes out and there is another cute guy on the horizon. They will not spend their allowance money to buy it. True talent will eventually come out in the long run. And as for the other Idol contestants seeming to support Phillip more than Jessica, I probably can attribute that to envy. She is the most marketable of all of them. This American Idol season has been a total sham. If the producers do not change the voting system, there should be a sign on the door of the audition area, “GIRLS AND NON CUTE BOYS WITHOUT GUITARS NEED NOT APPLY”.

  • Peoj_08

    A number truly fit for a Finale!

  • Lex

    ikr. im filipino but putting that tag when there is one bit filipino-related stuff involved is just overkill.
    and almost every one in my country is so pressed at this. it’s not like her career has ended. i was rooting for her but Philip did really good too. and ngl his song Home is something id actually buy and listen to.

  • 727

    I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED JESSICA DID NOT WIN DESPITE HER VOICE. PHIL IS GOOD BUT DIFFERENT – JESSICA WILL GO FAR.

  • Wilson

    Of course she was robbed. For that matter, the 2nd runner-up, is also a better vocalist than the winner.

  • Anonymous

    you’re annoying. i’m filipino and yes it sucks that jessica didn’t win, but why are you bring the race in here again? she did fantastic and that’s all she can hope for. at least she went far, and maybe there’s more to come to that amazing voice of hers. you suck and makes every filipino look desperate.

  • Anonymous

    true, look at the other idols who won, they’re good for a year or two and then BOOM gone in a second.

  • Anonymous

    jessica doesn’t want people to like just because she’s filipino or mexican, she wanted others to like her for her voice.

  • Robbomac

    The national anthem of overmodulation – both of them sucked.

    stop watching this show. they used this 16 yrs old girl.

    History has proven that actually winning this competition has little to do with your future success. Just look at past “losers” like Jennifer Hudson, Chris Daultry – neither made it to final 3, let alone win… What this show does is give these singers exposure and intense training that they never would have had otherwise. The true talents will rise and shine no matter how the vote goes. I am disappointed though, that the viewers did not get to see Jessica’s duet with Kristen Chenoweth. I was there on Tuesday night when they taped it. Jessica was so nervous, that when they finished, Kristen had them do it again, and it rocked! I could see Kristen telling Jessica how good she did has they hugged. Wish they would have cut the annoying Ace proposal (with built-in jewelry store plug which made it all the more “sincere”) and shown that instead.

  • Johnny SoCal

    Why is no one else seeing this? All I read is how great the performance was. But we also thought it was very scary. That woman is crazy! All up in someone’s face singing “YOU’RE GONNA LOVE ME!!!” No thanks, lady.

  • JustSaying

    Jessica, you may have not won the American idol title, but in our hearts, you have won the competition!!! TRULY AMAZING OVER THE TOP DUET PERFORMANCE!!!

  • Anonymous

    If that is the cause of not voting for her because of the word proud to be filipino, so american is a racist. Anybody can say what they fell on youtube because of pride. What is the problem of saying that. America should have to vote for the voice and not because of the color. Many Filipino did not vote for her I noticed. now who is the looser people who did not vote for her or Jessica?

  • Melco_93

    matay

  • Len

    Does anyone else find the faces they make in this video hilarious?

  • sharon

    She is a Broadway Singer,thats why she does the facial expression like that..lol

  • mynameisjayee

    Americans doesn’t want to be tagged as racist… however, they don’t want their ego to be stepped on… reality

  • Anonymous

    I agree with you . in fact it’s the best in the history of american idol so far.

  • deborah

    They both were goo.jessica and phillip.no doubt.I believe phillip will make it in the songwriting field. I loved his humility. The duet was the bomb!!!!

  • JSF

    the same reason why Lauren Alaina lost to Scotty McCreery last year!

    so was that due to her race as well. American did not vote for Lauren because she was white? LOL. how can you not enjoy this performace without talking about race? why do u have to wonder why jessica did not get the top vote. is it because u are too stupid to realize the logic behind it or is ur racism clouding ur judgement and u no longer see the logic behind the skin colors? either way, go jump off a bridge and save humanity a favour will yah. TANG INA MO! racist ka na nga, TANGA KA PA!

  • JSF

    TANGA! think before you comment and do not make it seem like you represent the views of FIlipinos. mga tanga lang and mga nirerepresent mo! Lauren Alaina who is white lost to Scotty McCreery last year. she lost because girls power voted for the last cute guy on the Idol stage. being Filipino has nothing to do with it!

  • josephalexis

    Ms. Holiday shared her talent and gave an opportunity to Jessica to show her best…bringing out the best in her…If Jessica’s training will be consistent like this, her singing career will be very very successful.

  • Guest

    Yes. You are correct. The only reason that Philip got more votes is because they just dont want Jessica to win. It’s not that Philip is better. They just dont want Jessica to win. Reality.

  • Mdsalva

    LOL!. These girls are nuts. They dream to much of a handsome guy.

  • Jeckerz

    Singing in a contortion face while hitting notes as if he was having a diarrhea?Don’t find it handsome,finds it a turn off. Not a cute thing after all.LOL
