More surprises with the American Idol finalists, though in this case it was with someone who didn't make the top three: Leah LaBelle. As expected, Latoya London was in the top three, but the other two spots went to Amy Allen and Jon Peter Lewis, who is best known for taking a comment from Simon about looking like a pen salesman and turning it into a gimmick that got him camera time earlier in the season.

Latoya and Amy wound up going through as finalists. We were treated to several shots of Leah in the aftermath of her rejection, and while I think they were trying to evoke sympathy given her crying, it didn't work. She had this pissy teenager look to her face which makes me hope (in vain, I'm sure) that we don't see her and her "potential" in the wild card round.
