I have thought that since the beginning of the finals, and I am still predicting that to happen!

Here's a little spoiler for those of you who haven't seen the show tonight and additional information for those who have seen the show. It was worse than we knew.

'American Idol' Rehearsal Canceled After Injury, Raining Glass
Stage manager was rushed to the hospital following a mishap on the staircase.

By Gil Kaufman

As if performance night for the "American Idol" top four weren't dramatic enough, just hours before Adam Lambert, Kris Allen, Danny Gokey and Allison Iraheta took the stage in Los Angeles, TMZ reported that stage manager Debbie Williams was injured in a mishap on the show's giant staircase during dress rehearsal.

The staircase, which is supposed to retract as host Ryan Seacrest walks down it, reportedly folded too soon on Tuesday afternoon (May 5), and Williams, who was following Seacrest, tried to hold on but instead tumbled down the stairs. She suffered what was described as a "nasty gash" on her leg and was taken to a local hospital.

"We have had an unconventional day," Seacrest said at the top of Tuesday night's show. "Had a couple of things happen here on this set. Unfortunately we had an accident earlier here on our stage, but it didn't end there."

In addition to the mishap that befell Williams, Seacrest pointed to the two giant globe-like "Idol" logos that flank the stage, one of which was hanging nearly upside down. He said it "collapsed" just a few moments before that afternoon's dress rehearsal, sending shards of glass all over the stage, with TMZ reporting that the studio was cleared as a mild panic ensued. "So the contestants have not had a proper run-through for the show," he said. "But as they say in Hollywood, the show must go on."

Wow!  Allison and Danny did well tonight!

Kris is doomed. And I hate it. :P It's like nothing's going my way. Just wait for Teyona to go, Annie to lose & Coach & Debbie be the Final 2.

On the other hand, the Adam & Allison did great tonight and if any of 'em are in the Bottom 2, then I'll be shocked. :P

This has been one of the strongest seasons yet and they all did well last night. I feel for ya Raymond, no one I like ever wins. (Coach! BLAH! Annie will win..)  :tup:

It well could be that Allison's duet with Adam pulls her through because they were great together. I like that every week she improves as a performer. I don't get all the criticism they pile on her. (Loved that she is finally doing more with her hair, it looks so much better!)

Sadly, I think Kris might be going home tonight, DialIdol has him third and Allison fourth but they have all but Adam vulnerable. (And their accuracy hasn't been as good this year.)
