'American Idol': Top 24 finally revealed

Here's Janell:

 

Whoa, I did not know this episode would be another 2 hours. After everything they crammed in last night, tonight they’ll just stretch out the pain and agony. And, spoiler alert, you might not be happy at the end.

Oh, but first, remember how Jennifer Lopez was sad last night, and they replayed it a lot, and built it up, like, could she even go on? Ryan Seacrest’s voiceover has everything hanging on Jenifer Lopez’s mental stability. Can she pull it off? Executive Producer Mr. Nigel Lythgoe (Sir!), makeup artists, and random people are hovering around her. Then, like a summer hailstorm, suddenly it’s over. J.Lo’s a professional, she pulls it together. I think this was a case of overenthusiastic editing, and Jennifer’s probably embarrassed that they built it up so much.

Karen Rodriguez is now introduced as Jennifer Lopez’s biggest fan, instead of MySpace’s K.Rod. I guess that’s progress for her. She sang a Selena song during her Airplane Hangar Solo. The judges put her through.
