I don't know, Blake's the only guy left, and that could give him an edge.
Though, to be fair, the show seems to want a female to win this year. They don't have a female pop idol right now, and wasn't it about 75% of the people who made it to Hollywood were female?
I work in the entertainment business, and trust me, there's no such thing as 'reality' tv. Only when a contestant gets bigger than the show can the public change what the 'higher ups' want. IMO.
In any case, I want the final two to be Melinda and Blake.
I do think Jordin has a long career ahead of her, however I think she would be better suited to Broadway. Plus girl's voices do change (though most people don't know it) it happens between the ages of 21 and 25. Her voice is a bit too strong to make the transition easily. She'll be fine, but I don't think she's ready to carry a show on her own.
Melinda is a real pro, but I don't sense much of a stage presence. Her vocals can't be beat, and she seems to love music, it's like her alter ego. Yet, I'm not drawn to her the way I want to be. I think she's been in the back too long, but I think she can learn to connect more. And I really hope she can be more current.
Blake is a true artist, musician. I think he will go far, and I hope he gets to do his own music. Many of his arrangements have been musically brilliant, and difficult. But I'm afraid that he might be too much a musician and not enough of an entertainer. I'm glad to see someone willing to take risks and stick to their own style.
I'm glad it has come down to these three (though I'll get Phil's album if he goes country). I would like to see Blake win, but I still think a girl's going to take it.
