therealljidolI can't say "This is a huge surprise" after last week's results, when a series of ties ended up with the two writers that the bottom with Black Marks. At this point that meant that the only way that we weren't going to say goodbye to both of them this week was if they managed to be one of the top two vote getters. Which, given this mini season, is entirely possible. Certainly not the craziest thing that ever happened.
What ended up happening instead was that both of them were again at the bottom. And by "at the bottom" I mean they finished in 4th and 5th place! Which is still pretty damn incredible.
In 5th place is the writer that I said I wasn't sure how they were floating under people's radar, and if they got to the finale, people were in for a LOT of trouble. (I don't have it in front of me, so that's extremely paraphrased.) People this season knew her aslittlebitofearth but I will forever know her as the LEGENDARY IDOL FIGURE monkeysugarmama!! (also known as messygorgeous later in her LJ days. All of this was mentioned in that introduction post. I can only assume that people somehow either tuned that out, or didn't know what it meant. Either way, absolute legend.
In 4th place is the always amazingflipflop_diva who was the writer that I said something about how she had benefited from having a smaller group and spotlight in a previous season and finally got the attention, and respect, that her writing deserved.All it really takes is that one shot, and she continues to prove why she's so damn good at telling a story (real life and fictional)
Both of these are absolute huge losses, but we've been experiencing huge losses for quite some time now. It's pretty much what to expect the closer you get to the end of any Idol season, mini or not.
Thank you to both of you for coming out this mini season - and for some absolutely amazing entries over the last few months!
