Paula Abdul Comes back, Janelle Arthur Will go Home


The many interesting point we discovered on last night's episode of American Idol is that will Paula Abdul will not returning Randy Jackson's phone calls or tweets, however will arrive when Idol by itself calls. Randy had attained out to his previous panel colleague after Candice Glover sang Paula's "Straight Up" on the show, however she never ever bothered getting back to him. When Randy whinged regarding Paula disregarding him and was about 2 secs away from performing "She's a Cold Hearted Snake," Abdul walked on stage to big surprise Candice.

After Paula made the obligatory oohs and ahhs over Candice's talent and her version of "Straight Up," Ryan Seacrest insisted that Abdul take a seat at the judges' table between Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj. Randy and Keith Urban smartly cleared out of the way and let the divas take center stage. Seeing Mariah, Nicki and Paula holding host on stage was a sight to behold.

Of course last night was not just about triumphant, if somewhat awkward returns. It was also about sad farewells. The writing was on the wall for Janelle Arthur after her own country mentor, Keith, told her, "Your voice is angelic, beautiful, you were hitting all the notes . . . it was perfect . . . but I didn't feel it."

America must not have felt it either, because Janelle had to sing for the save. While Randy claimed it was a split decision, the judges opted not to use the save. You can't blame them, either. Janelle will undoubtedly have a long and prolific career, but she's not even close to the level of Candice or Kree Harrison. If the judges had saved her, she would probably have gone home next week. At least she has the knowledge that Dolly Parton watched her performance Wednesday of "Dumb Blonde." Afterward, Parton wrote a letter that Ryan read on-air telling Janelle not to feel bad about the poor reception she got because, "We know you're not dumb and we know you're not blonde." 

Idol's Season Two runner-up Clay Aiken returned to the stage to talk up the good work of UNICEF and to sing "Bridge Over Troubled Water" for no apparent reason other than that he wanted to. Also on deck was Fantasia, the winner of Season Three, who reminded us that when she was good, she was very, very good. The judges were on their feet before her she even finished performing her new single, "Lose to Win."

Since for the remaining participants - Candice, Kree, Angie Miller and also Amber Holcomb - these people are all powerful rivals. When Candice will probably reign great, is actually really anybody's game.
