Amanda Overmyer’s American Idol Run is Over

Last night’s eliminated contestant was no real shock. One of the bottom 3 contestants, however, was a shock. The bottom three of the top 11 were Amanda Overmyer, Kristy Lee Cook, and Carly Smithson. The first of the three to be sent back to safety was Carly. She honestly looked shocked that she wasn’t eliminated. I didn’t make a prediction yesterday, but I was not shocked by Amanda’s departure. I was ready to see her go.
