American Idol

I will admit to the guilty pleasure I have of watching "American Idol" each week. Last night they voted off my gal, Mandisa. Before that happened, though, just she and Elliott Yamin were standing up there, waiting to see who would go. When she learned it was her, there was a confusing moment when the camera panned to the audience who seemed happily shocked at something on stage. In the audio, I could hear Elliott saying, "I love you," and when the camera cut back to stage, Mandisa and Elliott were hugging. Mandisa then went on to say her thanks and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ.

The Jewish white guy and the Black female Christian hugging in a competition after one has lost. Sometimes, you get a moment like that when you realize all is right and good.

Good luck, Mandisa - you keep singing for God's glory as you have and He will reward you!

Amy liked Mandisa, too. Now we're hoping for Taylor (a longshot) or Chris.
