  • michael where are you? you have a great talent!

  • In my option Syesha is the one that should've gone home!!

  • ryan is such a dick for doing that to michael what a douchebag

  • There you have the man who could have been Freddy Mercury eliminated. That's why I no longer watch AI.

  • douchebag Ryan! that was so mean!

    michael's the best contestant in idol history!

  • Injustiçaaaaaaaaa....Canta muito beim!Tem um estilo muito legal!Escolhe musicas perfeitas!E não envergonha a versão na hora de cantar!

    Não era pra ele ter sido eliminado!

  • This is 2011 and I am still pissed off that Michael Johns was voted off. It was totally ridiculous.

  • check out michael johns_david foster!

  • Not cool, Ryan. Not cool. At least if you are going to eliminate him then don't tease him with another shot.

  • btw, what is he up to today?

  • michael johns is one of the most talented to ever be on american idol.  what the heck is wrong with people.

  • Hahahaha the never-ending Paula hug. Damn, I loved Michael Johns. I remember that night so well, haha.

  • Michael should have made the top 3 )= he is the sexiest and most talented male contestant on AI ever!

  • MJ"s rendition of dream on, 1000000000 x better than danny gokey's

  • Dang Paula looks sooo shocked...Why did they have to say goodbye;(

  • THIS IS NOT SURPRISING THAT PEOPLE STILL, AFTER MORE THEN 2 YEARS CAN'T CALM DOWN. PEOPLE STILL REGRET VERY MUCH THAT MICHAEL WAS ELIMINATED SO EARLY.....ON NON-COMPETITION WEEK... ON "IDOLS GIVE BACK" WEEK.... ON WEEK WHEN NOBODY CAN B ELIMINATED....

    .WHAT A GAME....

    BUT MICHAEL STILL WITH US. SHINING.

  • one this american idol never fails to do is to eliminate the best ones first

  • Syesha made it to the top 3 cuz she was the last black person and all the blacks watching voted for her

  • @lovepuppy3451 That's not true at all. Syesha is a very good singer in her own right.

  • @lovepuppy3451 stfu it had nothing to do with black people. if thats the case then all black ppl would make top 3 and that doesnt happen every year now does it... sit down... ppl always gotta bring race into it.. 2011 damn

  • why was he eliminated!?!?! WHY!?!? WHY!?!

  • I know this will sound stupid, but what about what Ryan Seacrest said was mean? Like, I know it was strange how he called on Carly and Syesha at once but I didn't see any noticeable rude remarks from him.

    But anyway, this season had a lot of elimination surprises and this was one of them - the others, in my opinion, were in the top 9, top 7, top 6, and top 3.

  • @TwisterFlipp95 Here's why so many people were pissed at Ryan. Ryan said that the last time they did Idol Gives Back, no one was kicked off. By saying this, it gave a false sense of hope that Michael would be spared. But then Ryan just said Michael would be eliminated anyway, basically crushing Michael a second time with that tease. It's like pushing him down the stairs, going down after him, offering to help him up and then saying "Too bad" and then kicking him in the nuts.

  • @TwisterFlipp95 go to :33 and listen. he tried to create suspense but just ended up looking like a douce

  • Comment removed

  • Syesha should have been eliminated. Her pitchiness was annoying and consistent throughout the competition. And I swear Ryan was a douche for the tease. What a loser.

  • He's up in Edmonton doing the Edmonton Singing Christmas Tree fundraiser for Santa's Anonymous and he is remarkably good. He should have won.

  • Seacrest what a fool you are..............god

    HUGE MISTAKE ..MICHAEL WAS AMAZING...

  • I was so pissed off, he was my favorite and still is. Favorite season of American Idol to date.

  • It's impossible think that Brook was there standing safe and John was eliminated! c'mon... That's the reason this season wasn't that great

  • Still can't believe this. :(

  • between 5:20-5:30, that note was a fail. The song itself wasn't bad though.

  • What did Michael ever do to Ryan to deserve that? What an asshole!

  • I stopped watching the season after this night. The last time this show was based on singing talent was season 1.

  • this honestly pissed me off.

  • he was like my favorite! he should have been in top 4 at least!

    i love his voice haha =]

  • I remember i wasnt able to watch american Idol that night and when I found out he was eliminated I said "no way your kidding me right?" It was a very shocking and sad night. It should have been Michael Johns and David Cook in the finale.

  • That sucked. Just when he was taking off and getting in the "zone" he got eliminated.

    And what a dick move by Ryan to tease him about how someone was saved the year before - NOT COOL.

    If the "save" was available then, the judges would have saved him -- He deserved at least to be in the Top 5.

  • Congratulations, Ryan, for being a jackass to a guy that should have made Top 5.

  • syesha should've gone dude.

    she was in the bottom 2 wen michael and carly was eliminated.

    and they're SO much better than her.

    michael and carly should've at least made top 4. TOGETHER.

  • 2nd worst elimination. the worst was alex lambert's wlimination.

  • @fojemo1661 Alex Lambert really wasnt anything special, though. Lilly's elimination was the biggest pisser.

  • Comment removed

  • couldn't be worse anymore...this elimination was the craziest ever!!!! Michael Johns and David Cook should have been in the finals...!

  • maybe if he ran around makin out with his band america would have voted for him like they did fagboy adam lambert, i'd pay money to see this cat sing that dolly song

  • That was such a fucked up way of telling Michael he was eliminated... poor guy.

  • why are the writers such jerks, "last year during idol gives back we didn't eliminate anybody during this stage of the competition.....tonight you're eliminated"....they gave him a glimmer of hope and then cut him down!

  • he looks like paul rudd..

  • When I heard he got out I started crying and I so pissed I was like WTF American idol sucks balls

  • America must have hearing problems because I just don't get this elimination.

  • It has been two seasons and I still think back on that week and get pissed. Ahh, there are no words!

  • It's two seasons later and this still pisses me off!

  • Its because he wasnt American, dont matter, Europe, Brits and Aussies usually have the better stuff anyway, ugh you americans this guy was talented and a big fuck you to Ryan too.

  • @BeanieBasstard dont say that word to ryan. he did nothing wrong

  • worst elimination ever

  • the best season so far has the most shocking moment so far ..... he got eliminated too early.....brooke should have been eliminated....and i still get angry when i think about that :P

  • All I can say is there was alot of jealous people. This dude can SING!

  • this elimination was such bullcrap

  • I was so heartbroken when Michael was eliminated. He should not have been eliminated so early. I can't believe it; he's so talented!

  • should have been in the top 2 with David C - if they were both were in the finale i would be happy with who won cos they were my two faves for season 8

  • MY ELIMINATIONS:

    Bottom 3: Carly, Syesha, and Brooke

    Bottom 2: Syesha and Brooke

    Eliminated- Brooke White

  • It's like the 3 Hollywood Fighters bonding together lol

    In my opinion those 3 were the 3 strongest Hollywood Week performances that we were able to see. Yet they stand there as the bottom 3...

  • Omg, he is so freaking good !

    Paula's face is so hilarious she looks totally shocked. Well, I am shocked too.

    he's to good to be eliminated.

  • Michael Johns elimination was a rude act . It was against AI Give back rules.

    Ryan didn't explain , why this week they said Good bye for Michael Johns.. Did the rules change? Why nobody knew nothing about that ? Why judges were keeping silence without any explanations? Paula looked amazed , but not Randy and Simon...

  • Brilliant Michael Johns.

    You're will be with us forever.

    People din't vote because you were in strong position and this week was AL Give back.. It wasn't competition. And Nobody could be eliminated.. Why this week ? Why you? ...Wrong, wrong..

    But more thebn year later - 07.03.09 - you,

    dear Michael still here and shaining.. Your new CD -album Hold back my heart is stunning. The best of luck on your August tour and David Foster tour in October..

  • A non american with no guitar sent his ass home.

  • Michael johns is my godfathers brother

  • Paula Abdul turned into a robin because Zoey said that in a silly story. After Ryan lowest number of votes this week. Then Paula turned into a robin.

  • Simon knows all.

  • oh, cook's face is so sad.

    :/

  • Ryan was such a jerk here. Not every moment has to be suspensful....

  • 2:21 lol

  • I love you michael! can't wait for your cd

  • just met him in person yesterday- he's the sweetest guy. He introduced himself and asked how i Was doing and we sat and talked for about 10 minutes. I love that he didn't let fame get to his head- even though he's better than half the people on that stage in the vid. Love you michael!

  • jason doesnt give a crap that he got eliminated

  • Yeahh he's all smilin and cheerin.

  • what does jason have to do with it?? he wasn't even in the bottom three. if you are mad at anyone it should be syesha. where is she now?

  • ok now everybody agrees that ryan seacrest is a dickhead and just such a jerk. you can really see the expression on michael john's face his reaction to ryan's comments but tell you guys what....... michael johns elimination performance was incredibe, awesome, the next chris daughtry....speakin of chris daughtry i think ryan seacrest did the same thing to him too

  • Ryan is a jerk! he toys with the contestants feelings and cruely messes with them! =/

  • Michael's face is priceless when Ryan says "We're going to say goodbye to him tonight" after gettin his hopes up- Michael looks like he's seriously about to b*tch slap Mr. Seacrest!

  • I stll cant get over this moment of idol, michael johns...you are so hot & your voice just blows us away..cant wait for your debut album to be released in May 2009, will be the first one to line up & buy it...keep rocking my aussie mate

  • Ryan was such a dickhead. Sounded like they were going to keep Michael. And then to let him down at the last minute. Ryan sucks big time

  • Ryan Seacrest=Douche Bag

  • Possibly the biggest douchebag moment in Ryan Seacrest's career.

  • He was definitely the best.

  • Syesha should have gone

  • Ryan Seacrest is a dickhead.

  • man american idol was totally rigged. everyone knows michael johns was good enough to be in the finale, maybe even win! but nooo top eight and they didnt even save him! :@

  • Comment removed

  • this performance gives me chills

  • AWESOME curtain call!!!

  • hu hu

  • i remember when this happened

    ryan had to be a jerk and he was like "last year, we saved a person...but this year, SORRY"

  • i know that made me so mad!

  • FUCK YOU!

  • i like michael john he is australian from perth, w.a

  • I cried also! he should have won!

  • david cook is much better

  • i agree

  • david cook might be better- but if he is, he is not by much- my top two for season seven were michael johns and david cook with cook winning

  • I disagree completely, I think Michael was amazing,

  • michael was really good but did you david cooks alwasys be my baby from the previous week

  • i cried when this happened he's still the best...i'd do him t..lol

  • It's SO awesome that we all still remember & are touched by how this REAL winner went out last year - was THE most shocking event on AI I've ever witnessed. I will always be a HUGE fan of this rockin special talent .. & yes, I'd do him too!

  • I cried too :(:(:(

  • He got totally screwed. F-ing hot, sexy, great bod...and he can sing so much better than most of the others. Can you tell I would do him? Damn! Sexy bastard.

  • cant believe he got eliminated! he went before his time

  • i'm going back and watching this, i can't believe it was eliminated before the blond girls. actually season 7 was special cuz everyone was different. but MJ was really a great singer and i always enjoyed his performances. He should've been like top 3 or top 5 at least.

  • damn right david gokey is probably gonna win

  • i hate watchin this video i loved him but now i like danny gokey

  • adam lambert FTW

  • Yes, I can't stand Danny, he seems too cocky and sounds the same every week....Adam Lambert is gonna take it all this year, sorry people.

  • Tears still come whenever I watch this video :(

    This is perhaps the most fitting song ever sang for any elimination...

  • Simon's such a dick

  • 0:27 That's right Paula, no more open bars backstage after the show.

  • hes really good , sad to see him got eliminated.

  • he is soooo good man.... :(

  • That was so UNFAIR !

    Saysha should have gone.

  • He should have been in top 3!

  • It was poor taste how they mentioned how they didnt eliminate anybody at that time last year, just messing with his head, took it too far that time

  • I agree with you that was just cruel to add that

  • Mark my words. Someday Michael will be the most famous in the World and this ridiculous program will be out of TV.

  • muahahahahahahahahahahaha!

  • that david dude was soo happy cause he knew he woulda lost

  • he was the best on american idol and is closly the new rock legend

  • ryan is sucha littel turd he keeps rubbin it in

    micheal shoulda won i mean i wanted david cook to win, but if micheal was up against cook, i

    woulda defiantly supportin micheal i love his voice and

    gawd why'd he have to GO???

  • ryan is a tool

  • david archleta is just like clapping! lol

  • NO!!!!!!!!!!

  • u c, i really hate this stuff but based on the performance and great voice, top 5 should have been david cook, david archuleta, syesha mercado, carly smithson and michael johns!!!!!! i hope the next season, we all can predict the top 12 talented singers will be on a rough time to stay on top, cuz even either one of them, no matter how fabulous he/she is, might as well left the show early.. i hope i was wrong....but AI8 is arrived!!!!

  • he should have won

  • psshhhh ryan seacrest.

  • I and agree that Michael got kicked off because he was not an American but an Australian living a dream in America. If you think about it he had alot of popularity, he was better than anyone in the show. Also I think they just change the votes to kick him off the show since he was a danger to Cook and for me they already planned it on Cook to win the show, since he was not foreign and the judges thought he was the best. While Michael Archuletta and Carly were better but foreign competitors.

  • i thought ryan was such a jerk... "last year at idol gives back we didnt eliminate anyone" so why say that??? michael was amazing he should have won it all... it was because he is not a "true american" but because he is from a different country living his dream in american that truly makes him an american... he and carly did amazing final performances and shouldnt have left because they both did amazing... they shouldnt have left because of where they came from

  • it was for the fact he was from australia thats y he left and i was soo shocked

  • Sry! I ment Ryan.

  • Why is Simon a jerk? What did he say? I've wached it a millon times and can't figure it out...

  • when he sang it before it was wasn't very good. but this was great

  • michael only got eliminated because he was an australian, and they need an amerian to win "american" idol, so that is sooo unfair, and thats another reason why they had no elimination last season because they had no problems like that...so thats screwd up, i bet he wouldve made it big

  • what you are saying is true!!! im sure they just changed the votes or some bullshit like that!

  • yep yep i thought so too. it said before he and carly were the only foreign competitors and guess what they lost. but he does have a cd coming out around summer! cant wait for it!!

  • Oh MJ, I still get choked up, when you touch your hair.....haha I remember telling you about that and you were like oh great I never noticed I did that.

  • 0:28

    I love that second. The judges were like, "what is happening?"

  • what the hellll?????

    kristy stayed longer than michael????!!!

  • I think the show is becoming more of a popularity contest. I thought he did great and he should've stayed for a few more weeks.

  • omg yeah i know why were seyesha and kristy and um jason still on... he was so so much better.. it was so based on popularity and that is such a bunch of bull because it isnt a popularity contest

  • really? syesha was actually one of the stronger contestants on that show so guess what: shut up. camera pans to one of the 5 on the couches. pick one of those 5 to call a joke instead.

  • I just got the best free 5 song concert in my life when i saw this guy sing in Glorietta man. He did this cover of STP's Plush, this guy is goooood!

  • the version of Michael is good, but not better than the original

  • of course its not better than the origonal, you can never top an origonal... but look at all those other posers up there who werent even half as good

  • BULLSHIT!!!!!!!

  • do you mean micheal was bullshit or micheals' elimination was bullshit

  • elimimation

  • this version is better than the first one

  • sry 4 all the comments. I love how every1 thinks its bullshit, but no1 voted. WHERE THE FUCK WERE U PPL!!!!!!!

  • HE SHOULD HAVE WON. SEACREST IS A DIKE

  • America...

    That day...

    You made a big mistake.

    Michael deserved better.

  • do you know something American idol makes there own votes the people dont count this is why I stoped watching this crap

  • my 2 fave people last year wur syesha & david cook

  • nobody should have lost on charity week period! this just doesnt make any since! its hard to believe michael got da lowest votes dat wk!

  • i was crying when that happend!!

  • i think ryan was to harsh on MJ but jonhs handled it well i'll miss MJ but i think we'll be hearing him on the radio because he has great talent!!!<333

  • Ryan's an asshole.

  • he does have some new songs out. Go to his myspace or try and find them on here. I like his song "Its too late".

  • Michael should have stayed to the top 5 4 or 3 or farther!!! I hope he's up there with Carrie and Chris!!!

    However.......

    Ryan U SUCK for saying that!

  • ryan was such a jerk about it.. he should not have said that about last year... i was so shocked and i wanted michael to win so badlyyy... but i know that he is going to do goodd!!! =] i love michael johnsss!!!! rock on!! i bet you are going to come out with an amazing album soon!! =]

  • Sad!...I Love him! Personally I think he should have been in the top 4 instead of Syesha.. :/ Oh well I bet he will have a knock out album out soon!!

  • sad

  • keep in mind tht this is the same country that re elected bush i saw this coming

  • to be honest, even me being amercan, i agree

  • american* sorry lol

  • RYAN SEACREST YOU ARE SUCH A JERK!

    >:-O

  • ryan is such a jerk!

  • DUME AMERICA

  • Thats not true Tribuna333, she was crying because Michael and her where bestfriends. So shut it, if you don't know what your talking about.

  • I lost interest in AI when Michael was cut. I think he was cut way too early. He probably should've made it to at least the top 3. It's like they (producers) start getting rid of the really good & original singers to make way for the cookie cutter performers they think they can promote. IMO Michael Johns is one of the better ones.I hope he continues pursuing his dreams & I'm looking forward to hearing more from him. Rock on, Michael!!

  • Michael was really good i should of voted!!!!!
