The Top 6 (Melinda Doolittle, LaKisha Jones, Blake Lewis, Chris Richardson, Jordin Sparks and Phil Stacey) compete head-to-head again on Tuesday, May 1 (8:00-9:00 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed). Rock star Jon Bon Jovi will mentor the contestants as they prepare to sing songs by his legendary band.

Tune in the following night to see a live performance by multi-Platinum Bon Jovi and find out who receives enough votes to stay in the competition and who must go home. The AMERICAN IDOL producers have determined that the voting totals from last week and this week will be combined, and the "bottom 2" will be sent home on the live results show Wednesday, May 2 (9:00-10:00 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed) on FOX. This week's voting window will be extended from two to four hours.

the worst case scenario has come true. I was thinking that this lot singing BJ songs would be a mess. And it probably will be.

big whoppa

Interesting week for Melinda and Lakisha.

Another artist lets his work get murdered for the sake of publicity. If only Sanjaya was still around.

Has Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, Chaka Khan, or Christina Aguilera ever covered a Bon Jovi song? If not, I predict disaster.

Autumn

From what I read at EW online, they are covering rock songs. It doesn't have to be a Bon Jovi song.

Here's a link for the suggestions they gave:

GuessWho

Mariah Carey covered Def Leppard, so anything's possible

BJ has plenty of sogs for the vocal runners to do their thing.... "Always" would be good

Groucho

Somebody should do the Paul Anka swing version of "It's My Life".

Rumors that Sanjaya has gotten a agent from CAA, this agent's other clients include, Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, Tony Bennett, the Beckhams, Robbie Williams.

madcougar

I wish Christina Aguilera would cover "Pour Some Sugar On Me." I really, really do.

RichC2

They can make up for this and last week by doing a Songs of Bjork. Why? Because at least it'd be interesting.

mphtrilogy

I predict Blake will bring back the Beat Box as he unleashes his secreat weapon that all of us have forgotten that he has in his hip pocket.

Struz

Lakisha is gone this week and she's taking Phil with her.

Mavis

God I hope so. But because I think that's who should leave, it probably means neither will go...

Goldberg74

I wouldn't mind if Lakisha and Chris went home tomorrow.

SoSpacey

It better not be rock songs. Dont give this group an "out".

Phil will sing "You can't Go Home".

So, how many artists/bands are in Bon Jovi's league, meaning they are smart and talented enough to have written all their own music and sold 100 millions albums? This guy has gotta be hella-rich since he gets the song royalties as well. Has Shania Twain sold 100 million yet?

DVD Josh

Rumor is that Chris Richardson is tempting fate by singing Wanted Dead or Alive. If he doesn't knock it out of the park, he's done.

starman9000

Doesn't Bon Jovi do country now? Could be an out for Phil and Chris.

Dr. Henry Jones, Jr.

Are those worldwide numbers? In the US, Shania Twain has sold 47 million to Bon Jovi's 33 million. (as of 7/31/2006)

brainee

Just what that song needed ... nasally vocal runs!

starman9000

Almost forgot that they are carrying over the votes from last week. How annoying will it be tommorow when they keep going on about how "over 100 million votes were cast for tonights outcome."

TGM

Chris needs to go.

Lara Means

shes a little ruuunnnnnnaway!

GuessWho

yes, Bon Jovi's 100 million is worldwide

The Zizz

Nasally is a form of singing. I don't know if you knew that.
