The X Factor USA (New Poll!)

[Kevin Bacon]

I actually thought that Josh might win due to the insane underdog factor, but I guess not. Hey, that's America for you.

Glad Melanie won, she did an amazing job throughout the season.

For people who watch the British version, when does the winner release their single? For American Idol it's right after they win but I haven't heard anything from Melanie or her team.

In order, the top 4:1. Marcus Canty2. Josh Kracjik3. Chris Renee4. Melanie Amaro

It goes on iTunes a few hours after the act wins. British charts don't factor airplay in so they always do really well.

My only problem with Josh is his eyes when he sings. When he goes for those huge notes, it's almost like his eyes are going to pop out of his head.

[Jim Shorts]

Of the three finalist, I think Chris Renee will have the most immediate success, but Melanie should have the longest career, especially if she puts out Christmas and gospel cds.

What's with the giant blue url pic Jim?

Does that mean "Listen" is Melanie Amaro's first single? I can't find a studio version of it... I hope the live performance song isn't the official single.

[Water Bottle]

It looks like Jones, Schrezinger, and Abdul are out of the show.

[Jim Shorts]

But Jones made it must see tv! Not on purpose though.

I'm glad Nicole left she was useless but why did Paula have to leave? I guess they really wanted to change the dynamics of the judges table.
