Oh No Most shocking eliminations

What eliminations shocked you the most?

Season 7
Michael Johns. He should have at least made the top 3.
David H. getting voted off instead of Kristy Lee.
Asiah getting voted off instead of Kristy Lee.
Alaina getting voted off instead of Kady.
Chickeze going home before Kristy Lee.

Season 6
Haley making the top 12 instead of Sabrina.
AJ and Rudy both going home before Sanjaya. (And anyone else who went before him.)
Sanjaya finally going home at 7th place. (He lasted longer than Michael Johns! )
Phil going home instead of LaKisha.
Melinda not making it to the final 2.

I didn't watch before season 6.

Season 1
Tamyra Grey getting eliminated at 4th place, and Nikki getting 3rd. RIDICULOUS. and it was the first Idol shocker ever so it was probably the most effective. not that i saw it originally. but...yeah

Season 2
Clay losing to the much less popular Ruben.

Season 3
the 3 "divas" being the bottom 3 on top 7 week, and Jennifer Hudson getting 7th.
LaToya getting 4th, Fantasia being in the bottom 2 with her, Jasmine not even landing in the bottom 2 that week despite 2 atrocious performances.

Season 4
Constantine being eliminated at 6th place while Scott Savol magically floats into the top 5.

Season 5
Chris Daughtry's elimination at 4th place. probably the biggest shocker ever.

Season 6
Melinda not making the finale.

Season 7
Michael getting eliminated so early. unbelivable.

Michael Johns. I'm still in shock, and it's so upsetting.

Constantine's elimination in season 4 is the biggest shocker to date, for me. Although I dislike him strongly now and was never really a big fan, I did NOT expect him to leave that early. Biggest disapointment, though? Chris Daughtry, for sure. But sadly I saw that one coming.

Sorry, but Fantasia is my least favorite winner in American Idol history so far. I thought she wore out her welcome by the Top 6. The lovely and talented Diana DeGarmo totally should have won that year.

i agree and i dont like Fantasia either, but i wouldnt call her losing a "shock" since TPTB and the judges were obviously pushing for Fantasia.
