LOS ANGELES (UPI) -- Syesha Mercado was the latest contestant voted
off of the TV singing competition series "American Idol" by viewers.
Remaining finalists David Archuleta and David Cook will compete for
the "Idol" title in next week's finale.
"I don't know what to say," People.com quoted Mercado as saying when
host Ryan Seacrest encouraged her to comment upon learning she had
been eliminated from the show. "I just want to say, thank you."
Alicia Keys's "If I Ain't Got You" was the last song Mercado sang on
the series.
"We're going to have a real humdinger," "Idol" judge Simon Cowell said
of next week's finale.
