Melinda has such wonderful style. She made every song her own, and with most of them, hers was the best version I've ever heard! That's an amazing accomplishment for a novice singer, yet she still didn't win. It's sad that young people in this country have no idea what true talent is. Well, we older folks do, and Melinda, you're truly one of the great singers of all time!
Brilliant! Lee DeWyze who can't sing wins, and an outstanding singing and performing talent like Melinda Dolittle just disappears once the show is over - How could Idol just let her slip away like that? They should have promoted her more!!
i love melinda!!! she should've won the AI6... it's really unfair for her.......... i've never had a dull moment watching her every week... This season 2010 is really boring, i thought it'l be gonna be a good season but they evicted those great singers with more potential on winning this season.......... melinda big fan here!!!!
i wonder if the Americans thought that : oh, Melinda will get enough votes so we should vote for other losers first. then the tragedy happened and AI totally lost the Doolittle!
anyway, Melinda does not need to be starred by the AI, she is already the sUn!
hey everyone check out my videos i have some new ones on the way theyre still processing so its gonna be a while but one is done it just need time to show on my profile comment and rate plz

This was her 'answer' to Simon's week-before comment about lazy and wooden (Sway). She absolutely won the night; but she received faint acknowledgment of that fact from the producers on results night with that tired "choose the group that's safe' bit. I could watch this performance over and over - but that's no different from any of her performances! And the crowd goes wild - again!
If you were an avid-fan, you might know that; but what about the casual or new viewer tuning in to see this charade. I can't remember: did that also hold true for George Huff and Bo Bice? Did the top vote-getter automatically get this 'honor'? Anyway, Ryan says "Everybody loved you!" Well, gee, thanks. That reminds me: they did the same thing on Idol Gives Back. Who was the top vote getter? Ryan says, "In no particular order (but Melinda you stand first)..." ;-)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This was Melinda's best performance. I, do, however, believe that Jordin was the rightful winner of the crown that season. Melinda was good and the most consistent but at times she came off as boring. Jordin was and still is an exciting entertainer and that, along with her powerful voice and bubbly personality won her the title.
i just do hope that they will give melinda a break, cus the voice of jordin now is deteriorating. I even wish melinda to win, but i think when they will her a time to do recordings, i know it will really work
Yes some people were deaf! Did you hear Jordon MURDER that Bon Jovi song on Rock night? How anyone could vote for anyone who can do that is beyond me. Melinda is class plain and simple.
I'm kind of annoyed they chose someone over her, but it just means she doesn't have the shackles of American Idol over her. They don't control her. :)
Trouble is... with the way AI is set up. I don't blame America. Millions love her. America loves Cool, Jazz, great artists. And Melinda gives us all just that.
But no-one with a life has time, or inclination to repeat dial for hours...!!!
People forgot what real humility is! It's not this fake shit people say "Well it's just something in me"
Humility is KNOWING that it has nothing to do with you. Talent is a god given gift and humility is knowing that. People shouldn't criticize it they should learn from it.
This is where Melinda got hot..I mean she was always beautiful but she is HOT in this performance..and ofcourse her voice is just out of this world..she was my fav. through and through, never let me down
She is so amazing. I like how everything ended up in the end. But I love her! this is my favorite proformance of her! She shows so much additude and her voice is well suited for this song! YOU ROCK MELINDA!
melinda i miss you you should have not got voted off i cried so hard when you did so when you put out and album i will buy it and im going to the AMerican Idol tour so i will see you there love your biggest fan!!!!!!!!
Melinda is very likely to win. I am not sure about second. Jordin is the better singer but Blake has the young vote because of his beat boxing. (I know that last sentence was a run-on but you are not my english teacher. Now are you?)
Today's, 5/3/07 Chicago Red Eye newspaper says this....
"So your Final Four is: Jordin Sparks, LaKisha Jones, Blake Lewis and Melinda Doolittle. And we're going out on a limb to say they'll go home in that order."

Winning the season is not a guarantee of a successful career.
Her post AI career is what it's all about. I mean, look at Daughtry, Yamin and Pickler.

What do these artists (and a few others) have in common...?
Bing, Nat, Frank, Perry, Roy, Johnny, Glen, Tony, and Rhydian...
Ella, Jo, Karen, Nina, Gladys, Gloria, Shirley, Billie, and Melinda...
Answer:
They have excellent enunciation... they pronounce words clearly and articulately...
After all...
Why have words if they can't be understood...!!!
