As the seventh season of American Idol has ended, Vote for the Worst has compiled a list of the 20 performances that make us actually take the time to watch Idol. These are not the 20 worst performances, nor are they 20 performances with bad singing. They are our 20 favorite, most entertaining performances that really define what VFTW is all about. Did your favorite make the list? Click "Read more" to see how the members of this site ranked our top 20, watch the performances again that you love, and check out some new ones you may have never seen that are true classics.

Vote for the Worst has raised $2500 for Relay for Life and the American Cancer Society this year, but we'd like to do one more thing to help out. We're starting a charity auction with 6 great items that you can bid on where 100% of the proceeds will go to help the fight against cancer. To bid on the items, simply follow these links over to eBay, and bid generously to help an oustanding cause.
Vote for Kristy! 1-866-IDOLS-05 or text 'VOTE' to 5705. It was her worst performance in weeks, meaning she is in huge trouble. She was pitchy and everything we hoped she could be. The judges strained to comment on it. Can we let our girl go home in 7th place like Sanjaya last year? No! So keep on voting all night if you have to. All night long for Kristy Lee Cook. And she can last "Forever!" (Really though... vote lots. She's in huge trouble.)
Michael Johns is eliminated. The only thing funnier would have been Carly's swan song. The open mouthed friend in the audience was pretty hilarious. Bye bye Aussie douche bag. "Last year for Idol Gives Back, no one left us. This year, Michael... it's the end of the road." Awesome. Always good to make Paula cry. Continue to victory, Kristy!
