In other words,America, what were you thinking?
Still, for every Chikezie fan on our message boards, you could also find a detractor.
He sings with more soul than Chikezie and any other singer in season 7.

I think Chikezie should go.
And some readers never warmed to the way this weeks bootee sassed back to the judges.
I didnt care for Chikezies snarky apology for singing to the crowd, said Darren72.
I just dont like this kids personality.
His nice-guy appeal is cloying and Im ready to see him leave.
And Im not alone in my ambivalence.
Syeshas personality is fake, wrote ANTM Freak.
I mean, she IS an actress after all.
She just doesnt have IT.
The producers should tell the audience to cut it out.
And Save Jason had a similar response to the hand-wavers: like MAKE THEM STOP CLAPPING!!
This is not a Wiggles concert!
No one is singing B-I-N-G-O!
Who claps along to a slow, meaningful song?
Worse, they cant even keep time!
How can anyone even play with that going on?
Id love to hear Jasons song without the mosh pit joining in.
It was very distracting.
c’mon, someone give them lighters and show them how to sway.
At least that way, if they are out of time, we will not hear them.
That iTunes commercial masquerading as a behind-the-scenes package on the contestants?
Brookes horrified reaction to Carlys very aggressive Hey, Im safe!
Hilarious and possibly telling!
Kimberley Lockes performance of Fall (in a dress byProject Runways Christian Siriano)?
(Carly, c’mon take notes on how to enjoy ones time on theIdolstage.)
Andy: Why do the judges keep insisting that Ramiele has a big voice?
The only big voice I heard during Alone was from one of the backup singers.
Lunaburning: Carly just REEKS of desperation.
Its less of Hey!
Call and vote for Carly!
and more c’mon, America.
Only your pledge can save young Carlys life.
Its starting to creep me out.
Only its red white and blue!
What did Chikezie have to say today about getting voted off the show?
