Yeah I agree with 12:14, Jordin is too big for hollywood. I'm sorry, but the reality is no one cares about overwieght stars. and NO, 50% of america is not overweight, and even if they were, thats awful.. are country would be dead.

11:52 hobbashonnas- sounds like you have some chubby issues you need to work out, its ok it happens to alot of people but dont go bashing girls who dont need to lose weight! So there not thin unless they look like nicole richie? Puh-lease! Can you tell me what weight Carrie Underwood had to lose? She looked perfectly healthy when she won! When i saw her on tv last night i thought she looked too skinny not anerexic just too skinny. I think thats the problem in the world today we have people like you telling us your not beutiful and your not going too make it anywhere unless your a size 0,and too me thats sad.

I'm happy with the results and Jordin winning. True, Melinda was good, however you have to think about what type of music she'll be doing, which genre. Jordin will most likely do pop which is the biggest market. You can't tell me that Melinda would be doing pop--no, she's more adult contemporary. So, the right person won for this type of show. Blake is a great beat boxer, and the collaboration last night with Doug E. Fresh was hot, but he was a mediocre singer at best; very karoake sounding. He'll still be a hit but mainly as a collaborator, I have a feeling. Anyhoo-just my opinion.

I am very happy that Jordin won but I also think it really should have been between Melinda and Jordin. That would have been one heck of a competition!!!

Love Daughtry's album and his perfomrance rocked...but I'm also not into the eyeliner look. He's good lookin enough without that crap on him.

back off the weight comments. It has nothing to do with her singing, she is a big girl overall. Kelly has always been chunky, but that doesn't make her sell albums either. Stupid comments like that are just hurtful to be hurtful. How would you feel if it was you????

shes OK, but she's not like, im gonna say WOW. she's good, but isnt d'best one out there. she's NOT a stand out. for me, melinda's d' one who really has it. jordin is pretty normal, good but ordinary. this season is d' weirdest and most boring one ever!

uh..lobos...maybe you need glasses but Kelly Clarkson is not exactly a size zero herself. Yet Breakaway was one of the biggest selling albums of 2005. I don't think Jordin is even fat or chubby. She's a tall girl and just has a larger more solid build.....has nothing to do with fat. As far as critics go, they would "eat her for lunch" regardless of what size she is because (hello!) that's their job.

great voice but she needs to lose weight. I'm not being mean or cruel here...well maybe a little cruel but let's face it, the music industry can be a cruel business. CVritics and certain media junkets are going to eat her for lunch if she doesn't drop some pounds. Kelly did it. So did Carrie. Jordin's probably a nice girl all around but she's wayy too chubby to be a mainstream success. I didn't know if she was wearing dresses last night or a circus tent!

I am happy to see that America got it right this season.

I think it is great that jordin won. She is very classy and she had what it took to win american idol

well, i knew that jordin would win, even tho i voted for Blake. before this week tho, i was voting my arse off for MELINDA! BUT - as we have seen from season 5, it doesn't even matter if the contestants don't win.....if they are talented and get hooked up with the right people they'll be fine - AKA - DAUGHTRY!

All this means is that Blake won't be tied down to the AI contract and will be free to do what HE wants after the tour. :) we'll see more of him for sure!!!!!
