From People.com:

After Wednesday night's show, fans got to stick around to see BOLD "Ryan Seacrest"] flip the coin to see who will kick off next week's finale. The coin had a picture of Jordin on one side and Blake on the other. He tossed it up and Lewis it was – but, when asked whether he wanted to go first or second, Blake said, "Let's let the producers decide." Then, turning to Jordin, the great sport said: "Do you want to go first?" It didn't take Sparks long to decide – so it will be Blake Lewis who will sing the first song in the final performance show live at the Kodak Theatre next week.

I HELLA knew that was going to happen! Blake's a sweet guy...but bad move. :lol: Oh well. More power to the anti-curse! :woohoo:

It's TIME.

I'm so excited! Go Jordin!!

Go Jordin!

Blake was pretty good, Jordin was awesome

k well.

1st Round

Blake - Just okay. Good performance, kinda bad vocals. 6.5/10
Jordin - Bad song choice...also just okay. 6/10

Blake > Jordin (sorry Jordin and fanz :-/)

2nd Round

Blake - I really liked it. I like when he just sings normally and I love the song. 8/10
Jordin - Even better then the 1st time! This was awesome. 9/10

Jordin > Blake

3rd Round

Blake - The Idol single SUCKS this year >_>. Even more then usual. :grr: Anyway, he did the best he could with a crappy song that wasn't suited for him. 7/10
Jordin - Awesome. Emotional, great vocals...excellent. 10/10

Jordin >>>>> Blake

Overall: Both did very well, and it was much better then last year's snoozer. Jordin was better then Blake though. All in all, I think Jordin should win!!

JORDIN FTW!!!!!!!!

Im actually gonna vote which I haven't really done since Chris left last year. WOO! Only like twice though. LOLOL

Go Jordin!
I agree. Go Jordin!

Oh man!! Daughtry was on the end of American Idol!! That man is so damn hot!! Made it totally worth watching!!

Jordin made me very proud tonight. :biglove:

k well.

that was...quite underwhelming actually

anyway, jordin ftw i guess

BLAKE FTW!!!!

But they were both amazing!!!

Well that was boring and disappointing.

Who picks the songs? Was this seriously the best song they couldve come up with in terms of lyrics? The only good thing about it was it made sure that Jordin won. This Is My Now has to be the cheesiest title yet...and the song is too. Ew at that being the winner's first single. I can barely think of the title of a song being "This Is My Now" and not lol inside. Almost as much as "Flying Without Wings." Only "Do I Make You Proud" is worse.

Blake FTW...still. <3333

Dude, that coronation song sucked ass. Taylor Hicks outsang both of them from his last performance last year! :lol:

American Idol’ hopeful Jordin Sparks got the designer treatment tonight (and will do so tomorrow night, as well), thanks to Mark Badgley and James Mischka.

In an attempt to up the finale’s fashion ante, producers of the show sought out the design duo to style Jordin’s last look. Badgley and Mischka kindly obliged and flew to Los Angeles with 100 dresses for the songstress to choose from.

The daughter of former NFLer Phillippi Sparks will be decked out head to toe, rocking not only a Badgley Mischka dress, but also their jewels, shoes, evening bag and even perfume!

Blake Lewis, meanwhile, will be decked out in the latest argyle sweater vest the Gap can churn out.
