Phil Stacey -- The New Sanjaya?

31. Who cares HOW you get votes as long as you get them? The press is giving way more credit to Howard Stern and the "vote for the worst" web site than they deserve. Besides, there's no way Phil's the worst.

People will vote for Phil depending on his performance - he's not a rock star or a guy women scream over, so he doesn't have that huge fan base, but he has the best male voice in the competition and is always a treat to listen to.

33. Vote for the Worst is the biggest joke on the web. The owner just wants to get famous. All those sheep over there need to watch out of the kool-aid getting passed around by the asshole owner, Dave. I wonder how much money they donated to get their personal subnics.....idiots

Who gives a crap about AI anymore. They all suck

34. I love Phil's voice and his bald head and his ears in fact he has the best male voice up there. Keep sing Phil, I am voting for you.

35. Phil has the best male voice on Idol.

He has nice eyes. The night Tony Bennett was on he sang fantastic.

36. I do not agree that Phil ought to be voted next for the vote-for-the-worst. Phil has a good singing voice, and his only liability is that he is bald! But who cares? It is a hundred times better to see a bald headed guy with a good singing voice, than a scrubbly looking and awfully smelly-looking guy be seen on TV. Phil may not be the next idol, but let's not take his being bald against him!

37. I hope that for the next season, the judges should be more careful during auditions. They should really scrutinize those who audition with the agenda of having their 5 minutes of fame even if they croak like a frog! And be wary of those who "kinda sounds OK"...and include them for the first round, then later lambast them and humiliate them!

If they do not sound very good, oust them! If they sound very good, let them in. Personality and looks can be improved and made over...but a singing voice? Either one has it or not! Viewers have had enough of the Hungs and the Sanjayas...get serious, judges!

39. American Idol: Famous First Auditions,

This article is cool because it captures the exact moment Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson and Chris Daughtry morphed from a college student, waitress and car salesman into combined 21x platinum award winning artists.

40. Poor PHIL is a MAX SHRECK look-alike!!! No one will subconsciously 'vote' for someone that reminds them of 'NOSFERATU' in the black-amd-white classic early movie!!! PHIL may have all kinds of talent - and his thinness bald head and expression conjure visions of the deranged COUNT ORLOF!!!

41. What is it with people who post on here not being able to spell? Did any of you people go to school? Geez, it's pathetic!

Chris Richardson needs to go next. He is horrible, but the judges have pimped him through. Not once were they critical of him until last week. He looks like a deer in the headlights. He has no personality and his voice is a weak imitation of Justin Timberlake, which is really no big deal because Timberlake is also highly over-rated.

And people making fun of Melinda's looks should be slapped upside the head. Good grief this woman has an uncommon birth defect where the cervical spine is shorter than normal and the jawbone is elongated. Leave her alone - she blows away everyone else left this season! I would buy her CD the day it's released.

42. Phil was nominated not because he's the worst singer but because the people at VFTW don't think he's marketable. Let's face it, in the entertainment industry, looks matter. Unless he goes into Country music, where being lame and weird looking doesn't seem to matter...I'll continue this latter...Flavor of Love Charm School is on.

45. Actually, I think Phil has by far the best voice of the men. I think he has a problem connecting with the audience (but did great last week)), and that keeps people from realizing how good he is. I close my eyes sometimes when people sing and I ask myself, "Would I buy this voice on a CD?" Blake and Chris do absolutely NOTHING for me, and while I'm not a Phil fan, I think he's by far the BEST male voice there. He is NOT the worst.
