American Idol Season 7: Bye Bye Jason Castro
I know, I know – I predicted Syesha to leave tonight, but given how Jason Castro performed last night, his departure wasn’t at all surprising. I think MSNBC summed it up well when they wrote:
It was obvious after Tuesday night that Jason Castro was ready to go. He struggled with his first song, forgot the words to his second, and didn’t make any case for himself to stay in the post-performance interviews with Ryan Seacrest. Had he made it into the final three after a night like that, the scrutiny on both him and the show would have only increased. [Source]
He didn’t look at all surprised when he found out he was eliminated. Guess he saw it coming too. With him gone, I still think Syesha has a large mountain to climb if she wants to overtake David Cook or David Archuleta. My money is still on both of them being in the finals.
