Aaron Kelly Is The Person Who Got Kicked Off American Idol May 5
The voters spoke, and Aaron Kelly is who got kicked off American Idol May 5. Harry Connick Jr was the Celebrity Coach for Frank Sinatra week. It wasn’t enough as the voting audience saw Kelly sing the Chairman of the Board and were themselves bored. Since he is old enough to apply for a no fax payday loan, let’s hope he gets a free plane ticket home.
Boots put to Aaron Kelly and he is sent packing
Tuesday May 4 was Frank Sinatra night, and Aaron Kelly didn’t win over voters with his take on “Fly Me to the Moon.” Regardless of what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars, the American Idol results May 5 episode saw him booted. He reprised the song for his send off. (Granted, Harry Connick took over the band, so it’s not like he had a chance to cover Megadeth as a parting shot.)
Mike Lynche almost eliminated once again
You have to give it to Mike Lynche for at least bringing consistency to American Idol Season 9. He consistently has been at the bottom for the last few weeks. The remaining American Idol Top 4 as of the American Idol results May 5 update are Crystal Bowersox, Casey James, Lee DeWyze, and Mike Lynche. The Casey James take on “Blue Skies” caused Irving Berlin to spin in his grave, and Mike was compellingly mediocre with his version of “The Way You Look Tonight.” He’s consistently been in the bottom for the last few weeks running, so unless he manages a miracle soon, the fans are probably going to pull the plug.
Oh yes, and Lady Gaga appeared on the show too
The other guest performer, besides Harry Connick Jr was Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga performed her song “Alejandro,” albeit abridged. Still, there are only the American Idol Top 4 left, so that means we only have four weeks to go. Who would you pick to be this year’s American Idol winner?

Ignore the plot and enjoy the numbers, especially Astaire’s marvelous “Puttin’ on the Ritz,” which is breathtaking… |
