American Idol results 5/12/10: top 3

The top four contestants sang songs from the movies Wednesday night, with Jaime Foxx as the mentor. Although they had a lot to choose from, all of them chose really strange songs.

Wednesday’s results show reminded us that the top three gets to visit their home. Joy. More fodder for filling airtime.

Tonight’s fill took the form of performances by Fantasia, Daughtry, and Bon Jovi.

Despite his best Tiny Tim impression, Casey ended up being the first member of the top three.  Lee joined him soon thereafter, leaving Big Mike and Crystal in the bottom two. (Edit: host Ryan Seacrest said that the contestants in the top three were being identified “in no particular order” so we really don’t know who was in the bottom.) There was no third chance for Big Mike, who benefited from the judges’ save earlier this season.  Crystal rounded out the top three, with Mike going home.

I still think Crystal is the candidate to beat.
