American Idol is down to three with LaKisha Jones, the favorite sure-fire finalist bidding adieu on Wednesday. Jones spoke Thursday morning with WJBK-TV in Detroit, telling an interviewer that she is looking forward to pursuing a recording career and eventually moving into a new home.
With her departure, American Idol is down to it's final three contestants, Blake Lewis, Jordin Sparks and Melinda Doolittle. Jones said she wasn't surprised, especially after judge Simon Cowell predicted moments earlier that she was going home.
I thought, `Yep he's right. This is it. This is where it's going to end.' I kind of figured that me and Blake would be in the bottom. I just thought, `You know what? OK, my time is up.
Paired with Blake Lewis in the bottom two, Jones had little chance of overcoming the fan base of the last remaining guy in the competition. Her last performance where she sang "Stayin' Alive", a Bee Gees original released in 1977, proved to be ironic with her exit.
