Beautiful Loser: Jacob Lusk Is Out At American Idol
JACOB LUSK WAS BUMPED FROM AMERICAN IDOL BUT WHAT A CLASSY EXIT HE TOOK.
Lusk was tossed as Idol's 10th season squeaks to a close.
Thursday’s show had Lauren Alaina near the bottom, a spot she hasn't held all season. The high schooler burst into tears over the possibility of getting cut, while Lusk waited calmly to hear the bad news.
But since Idol is not just a star maker but a synergistic machine, Jennifer Lopez performed her hit single On the Floor, looking like MC Hammer dressed her, while Steve Tyler plugging his debut solo single, It Feels So Good.
At the end of the night, Lusk took the elimination in stride. Once the boom fell, Lusk fell a beautiful rendition of Luther Vandross’s A House is Not a Home as his goodbye song. Before leaving the stage, he declared, "I got to share the love with America and I think America fell in love with me.” Indeed they did.
Karen Malmquist is a sophomore at La Salle University, and the head writer and star of In Other News, a comedy series airing in Philadelphia.
