Since the Top 20, i believe Crystal will win this season.

I've been her fan all season long and if she doesn't win. You bet i'll be darn disappointed. Come to think of it, i never had an american idol favourite whom i supported from the beginning till the end and won.. except for Jordin Sparks.. but i only started liking her at the Top 8/9.

TexasLady:
I really hope she wins. Once in awhile my favorites win.  :lol:

Tonight on our local Fox news showed Casey going to the Fort Worth Stockyards to meet his fans and the crowd looked huge. He performed at Key's Lounge with his band and he was on fire, playing his guitar. His mom also sang a song with Casey accompanying her. I hope AI shows her singing. She's pretty good. Someone at the lounge said  he should let go and play on the show like he played there.

"American Idol" contestant Casey James has come home to North Texas before the grand finale, and he visited FOX 4 on Friday morning.

Casey, who made the 'Idol' final three on Wednesday night, was live on FOX 4's "Good Day" from 7 a.m. to 8 a.m.

A t 10:30 a.m. Casey's busy day continued with a meet and greet at a Grapevine AT&T store.

He then moved on to his first public performance  -- a small show at the packed Keys Lounge in Fort Worth , where Casey has a history of performing. A crowd of about 200 watched the jam session, and about 50 people, who could not get into the venue remained outside. During the show, a comfortable-looking Casey sang and performed guitar solos. He told the crowd it was great to be back. Watch a raw clip of the event below, shot by intrepid FOX 4 reporter Brandon Todd. Scroll beyond the video for more details on Casey's upcoming appearances.

'American Idol' finalist Lee DeWyze comes home

Lee DeWyze's Chicago-area homecoming has begun.

The Mount Prospect native and "American Idol" Top 3 finalist kicked off his hectic day on Friday -- which includes throwing out the first pitch at Wrigley Field, a parade in his hometown and a performance at Arlington Park -- with a visit to various Chicago radio and TV outlets.

"Being in Chicago ... I've been gone -- it feels like it's been forever," DeWyze told FOX's "Good Day Chicago." "To be back, it's just like ... this is home."

DeWyze is scheduled to appear at an AT&T store in Skokie at 11 a.m. and will visit an unnamed high school later in the day. He told "Good Day" he will play an original song, a cover and something he performed on "Idol" during his mini-concert.

AT&T store in Skokie

Around 200-250 fans showed up for DeWyze's 11 a.m appearance and was said to be "very appreciative." From what I hear, the first fan showed up at the store around 5:30 a.m.

First pitch at the Cubs game

DeWyze hit the field shortly before 1 p.m. (thanks to the help of a police escort), and briefly spoke with Cubs chairman Tom Ricketts. "This is awesome" DeWyze told Ricketts. I asked him if he was able to sleep the night before and he simply responded, "No."

After throwing out the first pitch, DeWyze pumped his fist (the pitch was good, but it wasn't fist-pumping good) and then walked up to the "American Idol" TV crew. "Wow, that was crazy," he said into the cameras. DeWyze left the field after that and was followed by the camera crew, photographers and, of course, screaming fans.

AI is where I turn to get lucky. I've had a 5/5 batting average since I watched in Season 4. :funny:
