Major Elimination On "Idol"

After guest performances from Chris Daughtry, Slash & No Doubt, 17-year-old rocker Allison Iraheta was eliminated on tonight's "American Idol" results show.

Ryan Seacrest told her, "I know I'll be playing your songs on the radio really soon," and the Twitterverse seems to agree, lamenting Iraheta's departure:

1.

   MarcusMichalik Poor Allison. Gokey was beyond awful last night. I guess America wants another Michael Bolton.

   RhonniesTweets Bah. Allison, you're going to go on to do great things, but I think you deserved to be in the top three.

Kris Allen, Danny Gokey, and Adam Lambert make up the top three, leaving no females in the competition. Their fans came out to support them on Twitter:

1.

2.

Fresh on the heels of announcing her former painkiller addiction, Paula Adbul performed her new pop single, "I'm Just Here For The Music" and was eager to know what the Twitterverse thought.
