LOS ANGELES (GaeaTimes.com)- “American Idol” May 19 result episode went on to declare the top tow contestants in the Season 9 of the reality show. On the Wednesday episode which was made exciting and entertaining at the same time with the performances of Justin Bieber, Travis Garland and some others, saw Casey James the 27-year-old musician from Fort Worth being ousted by Crystal Bowersox and Lee DeWyze. The host of the “American Idol” Season 9, Ryan Seacrest declared that Casey James had received the least number of votes among the three semifinal constants.

The decision of “American Idol” May 19 has not shocked many viewers as on Tuesday night Casey James delivered the weakest performance among the three contestants. While Crystal Bowersox’s rendition of Melissa Etheridge’s “Come To My Window” and “Maybe I’m Amazed” of Paul McCartney was praised by the judges, Casey James‘ rendition of Eric Hutchinson’s “OK, It’s Alright with Me” could not satisfy the judges and the audience. His performance was marked by many as dull and judge Simon Cowell went on to compare his rendition to a salad. Lee DeWyze also secured his portion in the final by impressing the judges with Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Simple Man” and Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah”.

As Ryan Seacrest announced the results, Casey James said that he is thankful for the opportunity that he got at the “American Idol” stage. He added that his journey till date in the “American Idol” has been amazing and that he is honored to have come so far in the show. After the “American Idol” May 19 result episode, the show is left with few final episodes and performances by the contestants.
