Haley Scarnato, “Turn the Beat Around”: 14
I gave her a five in song choice, because it was actually quite shrewd (Simon agrees with me.). There was limited singing and plenty of opportunity to shake her groove thing.
Phil Stacey, “Maria, Maria”: 18
You know I love Phil and I wanted to give him a good score, but I agree it seemed a little lifeless. And there was that crack at the end, but it was a great choice. Plus, is it me or does Phil sound like a guy trying to enjoy himself as much as possible since it could be his last moments on the show?
And I just realized that Sanjaya is getting the final spot tonight. Can you say milking it?
