Who's your BET for the next American Idol?

I still think it's too early to pick a favorite on Idol. I haven't yet seen what all of the people who will be finalists can do. Every year there seems to be someone who makes it all the way through that they never show us in these first few weeks. However I feel like the talent this year is far and above the talent at this stage last year.

I love Carson as well, but he is a professional actor, and a good one at that, so I'm not sure if this is just a stunt to increase his exposure.

I really like many of them- the 16 year old girl who sang "I don't wanna miss a thing", the Adam-like guy(HIGH voice)... BUt I like the guy who played the double bass ( I think ) the most...he also played this small piano that he blows (don't know what it's called. His voice is just awesome,and has lots of tones and can really hit the notes well- he has good stage presence too.

Well, it's too early to pick yet. I'll have to wait until they trim the number down to top 24. But if Thia Megia makes it to top 24, I believe all of us here in the Philippines and the Filipino community in the US will be supporting her. So far, I'm very impressed with the number of talents this season compared to last year.
