Simon Cowell on American Idol’s Final Two

Simon Cowell said that this year’s “American Idol” contest has come down to a “brilliant entertainer” (i.e Blake Lewis) and a “great singer” (Jordin Sparks). “I can’t call it at this stage,” Simon said in regards to who he thinks will win. “For Blake, he’s a brilliant entertainer, but the negative is he’s not a fantastic singer.

The advantage for Jordin is she is a great singer and the negative is she hasn’t done one performance yet which I can remember as a wow.”
