allison iraheta voted off, allison iraheta eliminated, top 3 resultsWho got voted off American Idol tonight (5/6/09)? Who got eliminated from American Idol May 6? Who are the Top 3 / Final 3 of 2009? I’m afraid it’s goodbye to Allison Iraheta of Los Angeles as she was eliminated tonight. Despite a relatively strong performance in last night’s Rock Week performances, singing “Cry Baby” by Janis Joplin, she got the least number of votes from the viewers of the popular reality-competition show. That leaves an all-male Top 3 for 2009: Adam Lambert, a 27-year-old theater actor originally from San Diego; Danny Goeky, a 29-year-old church music director from Milwaukee; and Kris Allen, a 23-year-old college student from Conway, Ark.

I was hoping for Allison Iraheta to be in the Final 3 but it was not to be. The last two were Danny Gokey and Allison and I was crossing my fingers that Danny would be voted off. His performance of Aerosmith’s “Dream On” last night was horrendous and I was hoping the voters would take that into account. But no, they still voted off Allison Iraheta.

This week, the three singers will travel to their hometowns before performing next week. Everyone’s singing two songs – one that the judges pick, the other their personal favorite. Kris Allen has got to sing his head off next week to get into the final two, otherwise it’s gonna be the expected Adam Lambert vs. Danny Gokey showdown. Let’s hope it will be Adam vs. Kris in the finals.
