I've never been fond of Lil and I've been waiting for her boot since last week. But there's a long-lived tradition in the American Idol World about \"The Diva That Lives Forever\" (case in point: Syesha Mercado) so it's not  really  a surprise that she is still there. Her vocals are great but she's been sucking with wrong song choices week after week thus the whole world is asking WHAT is she still doing at Idol. Her elimination became more evident last night when she persistently talked back to Simon after he gave her another bad critique for her Bette Midler cover.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eAnd THAT, Ladies and Gentlemen, was one of the reasons why Matt Giraud was SAVED tonight from elimination!\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eConfused? It's actually very simple. \u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eThey said that the \"save\" was reserved and created for the \"Three Anointed Ones\" - Adam, Danny and Lil. Since the judges can only use the save once before the Top Five - and there's no doubt that Adam and Danny will be on the Top 5 - then the save looks like it will be  put into use for Lil. Unfortunately, Lil proved last night that she's not worthy of the Top Five (more so the Finale).\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eWith two weeks to go before the expiration of the \"Judges' Save\" they have no choice but give it to Matt who's probably the \"next better\" after Lil Rounds.
