Los Angeles (CMR) - The votes are in and Syesha Mercado’s dream of becoming the seventh American Idol has ended.

Given the overwhelming popularity of David Cook and David Archuleta, the elimination this week really wasn’t much of a surprise.

After Syesha sang “Fever” on Tuesday, Simon simply said she would “regret the decision.”

Paula Abdul –who usually is positive — told Mercado that she thought her performance of “Hit Me Up” wasn’t “good enough to get into the finals.”

Apart of the elimination, former idol contestant Fantasia Barrino performed Wednesday night as well.

For her last time on the Idol stage, Syesha sang Alicia Keys’ If I Ain’t Got You.

Who do you think will win American Idol?

    PROOF OF AMERICAN IDOL FRAUD!!!!

    This is the second year in a row that American Idol has had a songwriting contest. Since the contest ended last year I’ve researched the contestants from last year and this year….FYI there were over 25,000 entries last year at $10.00 for each song. 20 songs were then chosen out of the 25,000 for an online vote. The winner’s song is then performed on the American Idol Finale. The problem I have is that one of THIS years Top 20 Songwriting Finalist is a Co-writer of LAST years Top 20 Songwriting Winner.

    Somebody from American Idol has some explaining to do.

    THERE IS A LOT, LOT, LOT MORE!!!!!
