Top 2: Kara racks it up!

Posted: 09:02 PM ET

I really don't need to see any more of these faux-awards. It's just sad the delusions that people have about their singing.

But this award was all about bringing Bikini Girl back to sport her itty bitty suit and her new cleavage.

It elicits a "wow" from Simon and the funniest line from Ryan when he says "I was going to ask you what was new, but I think I know."

They really didn't need to let BG sing "Vision of Love,"  but I have to tell you, Kara is a much better singer than she is a judge and kudos to her for flashing HER bikini at the end!

Work what your mama gave ya, Kara!

OK...so this is the ONLY thing that Kara has done this season that has been entertaining...I'll give her props for working it for her charity! Bikini girl just needs to go...

Bob   May 20th, 2009 9:04 pm ET

Kara has some serious chops and I see a future in porn for BG.

Tia   May 20th, 2009 9:04 pm ET

That was the first time I have had any appreciation for Kara on this show! What a riot!

KMH   May 20th, 2009 9:04 pm ET

It was so great to see BG put in her place and to have us reminded that BIG BOOBS do not make you a good singer.

TCJ   May 20th, 2009 9:05 pm ET

Kara was great!!

DitaFan   May 20th, 2009 9:05 pm ET

Kara is so insecure and annoying, but I have to hand it to her for this. Good humor, brave, and great singing.

Loved it when BG tried to sing Kara. She didn't seem to understand she was being put in her place by the song's writer. How humiliating for BG.

kk   May 20th, 2009 9:08 pm ET

You go Kara for putting BG in her place...She looked so pissed to see Kara on stage with her.

carrie   May 20th, 2009 9:08 pm ET

That was funny as h*ll!! She totally sang better than that little girl wanna be!

Mickey   May 20th, 2009 9:08 pm ET

Wow...Go Kara!

Joan   May 20th, 2009 9:09 pm ET

I think Danny should have been in the final 2. I hope something works out for him

jim   May 20th, 2009 9:09 pm ET

Bikina girl beat Kara again! I won't comment on the singing.

Katie C.   May 20th, 2009 9:10 pm ET

This was the most entertaining aspect of the show so far and as much as we laughed and hooted at Kara coming out to sing it was 10 fold more when she flashed her bikini as well.

Kara does have an amazing voice and what a treat to get her to show BG what a truly talented singer sounds like.

petra   May 20th, 2009 9:10 pm ET

and bikini girl didnt look pleased! good! kara was hot, i loved how she showed herself off for charity!!!!!!

Angela   May 20th, 2009 9:10 pm ET

BG is every adolescent boy's dream.....please people this is supposed to be a family show, not a freak show!

knights10   May 20th, 2009 9:11 pm ET

She is so impressive! She finally proved to BG that she is beyond better than her!

I think it was needed not only for BG but also for AI auidences to see that Kara is there for a reason.

TB   May 20th, 2009 9:12 pm ET

It was just so beautiful watching BG get pissed and try to still hold on. Never before have I actually cheered at the TV during Idol. I now have!

Bob   May 20th, 2009 9:12 pm ET

Sorry DitaFan. Pretty sure Mariah Carey wrote "Vision of Love", not Kara.

Lee   May 20th, 2009 9:15 pm ET

Oh Kara! Snap! Nuff said...

Jonille   May 20th, 2009 9:15 pm ET

I liked how Kara came out and did her thang. She totally surprised everyone with her singing and totally looked way better than ole girl.

Angel Fox   May 20th, 2009 9:15 pm ET

That was awesome, I wish Kara would have told her to step aside and then show her how it is done.

C   May 20th, 2009 9:22 pm ET

Kara can sing!!! And BG just got put in place...

Catie   May 20th, 2009 9:25 pm ET

Wow...Idol just gets more and more ridiculous each year. BG and Kara –wow, those are a few minutes of my life I can never get back! Idol, get a life!

Jenni   May 20th, 2009 9:25 pm ET

enough of bikini girl already!!! Let her and her new boobs go away and never come back. uuuuuuuugh.

Ben   May 20th, 2009 9:34 pm ET

Alot of you people seem to have no idea that Kara is a singer, not just a songwriter. That was awesome!

007   May 20th, 2009 9:34 pm ET

Kara is a better singer than a judge, she actually literally shut BG down all together.

Joe   May 20th, 2009 9:36 pm ET

I love how Kara sang live and Paula had to lip sync...

CW   May 20th, 2009 9:37 pm ET

Wow!!! kara is great !!!

Howes32   May 20th, 2009 9:37 pm ET

It is an insult to the female gender to prostitute yourself on national television, but it is nice to see her get put in her place.

DH   May 20th, 2009 9:37 pm ET

The "golden idols" are the lowest, dumbest part of the show.

Annia   May 20th, 2009 9:38 pm ET

Wondering how much the BG gets for making a fool of herself like that? We all know she wants a piece of Ryan's big $$$$$$, she never was serious about her singing anyway.

Ana   May 20th, 2009 9:51 pm ET

Actually Ditafan.,,Kara did not write Vision of Love..it was indeed Mariah Carey and others,,,not Kara.

wordgirl   May 20th, 2009 9:57 pm ET

OH! Kara OWNED Bikini Girl! I'm so glad she did that. It was shocking, though!!!!!

Maverick   May 20th, 2009 9:58 pm ET

What happened to Fox's conservationalism???????????????????

gregg   May 20th, 2009 10:03 pm ET

wooooooowowowwooooooooooooooooooooooowowoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowowwow3owwooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowowowowowowwowwow kris

Tonya   May 20th, 2009 10:08 pm ET

This was one of the BEST moments in the show! I DIED when Kara took her clothes off! If I had a body like that, you'd have to pay me to keep my clothes on! Go Kara!!!

kristin   May 20th, 2009 10:11 pm ET

That was awesome. Way to go, Kara!! That skit was the highlight of the show for me.

RJ   May 20th, 2009 10:14 pm ET

omg adam deserved the title. he was in a different league. kris was shocked and what he said was true. adam will be a superstar anyway

RJ   May 20th, 2009 10:15 pm ET

kara can sing. she is a better singer than song writer

Galoux   May 20th, 2009 10:17 pm ET

For the first time, I liked Kara. That whole bit. Cracked me up!

Barbara   May 20th, 2009 10:17 pm ET

Not only can Kara sing....she's ripped....wow!!

LUCYBELL   May 20th, 2009 10:18 pm ET

Adam should have won idol, he has the talent, its a shame that underdog wins and talent doesn't

Karen   May 20th, 2009 10:25 pm ET

I am so disappointed that Adam did not win the American Idol competition. He CLEARLY has a superior voice to Kris and has so much more stage presence. I know he has a long musical career ahead of him. I don't dislike Kris but Adam is definitely the more talented of the two.

Trixiejo   May 20th, 2009 10:27 pm ET

Shock Stunned Dismayed Adam fans will think 2x before watching next year....That is ok, as Adam can be more creative w/o a contract ....Chris Congrats !?

b t.   May 20th, 2009 10:27 pm ET

Lionel , Steve M. Cindy L. Queen, Rod baby, The icons of today yet!
Kris congrats! But you have to believe in yourself more you are good!!
Adam I wanted you, but I know you will stay around! Your the greatest!
Ruben, I love seeing your face teddybear. Love all the judges as always hope you will all be back next year! Until next year, who knows maybe I'll try out! Love, Peace

Kate   May 20th, 2009 10:28 pm ET

This verifies that people are afraids of gays. Kris Allen is only a mediocre singer. Too bad....... America you got it wrong for the first time!!!!!

b t.   May 20th, 2009 10:28 pm ET

Oh I forgot Kara you have guts. My husband loved it!!!!

BeeJay   May 20th, 2009 10:28 pm ET

I have watched American Idol all 9 seasons. However, this will be the last. I can't believe that the powers that be allowed Chris to win out over Adam. Adam was so obviously the better singer and all around entertainer. This was a joke.

Sharon   May 20th, 2009 10:33 pm ET

I loved all of the music on the show, but have totally lost all respect and will never watch the show again. It was very disrespectful for all of the children that watch this show especially young girls that will now think that that is what you have to do to get on tv. Also, I am happy for Chris, but this is suppose to be a vocal talent show and Adam is by far the best the show has ever had.

I have been a fan for 8 years, but will not watch again

Kate   May 20th, 2009 10:34 pm ET

What a shame.......PEOPLE ARE AFRAID OF GAY PEOPLE. Kris allen is a mediocre singer. This is the worst final vote of all. Good luck Kris......I think you know you are average.

deedee   May 20th, 2009 10:42 pm ET

Okey dokey – I may be old enough to be Kara's mom, but I know music and Kara-girl, you totally ROCK – as both a singer, songwriter, AND JUDGE!!!. I'm hoping like mad that the other judges (Simon especially) reconsider whatever petty brouhaha supposedly took place between Kara and the other judges. IMHO, she provided articulate, informative critiques. PLEASE DON"T LEAVE American Idol Kara!!

danny   May 20th, 2009 10:49 pm ET

omg, they both butchered mariah's best song!

Emily   May 20th, 2009 11:00 pm ET

Does anyone know if Bikini Girl knew that Kara was going to sing with her?? She looked pretty pissed and surprised. Definitely my favorite part of the show.

Madeline   May 20th, 2009 11:22 pm ET

I've hated her guts all season but when she came out and OWNED that stupid girl, I about came off the couch! That was CLASSIC. I, briefly, forgot how stupid I think Kara is.

Jen   May 21st, 2009 12:07 am ET

Kara rocked it! She was awesome! Totally showed up BG... Hilarious!

JerZIdolFan   May 21st, 2009 12:12 pm ET

This was the BEST finale ever and Kara putting BG in her place was the highlight of the entire night!! I also was applauding and cheering at the TV! All she needed was a little spray tan and she could have taken her dress off and stood next to BG–Kara was ripped!! Way to go–you should release one of your own songs!
