Jason's OFF!
Posted on Thu May 8, 2008 07:54 AM PDT

The dreaded Jason Castro was cut from American Idol last night after performing Bob Marley's I Shot the Sheriff and Bob Dylan's Mr. Tambourine Man, during which he forgot the lyrics!
Simon ripped Jason and told him, "I'd pack your suitcase."
Did you like him or are you sad to see him go?
My real question is, how'd he make it this far?!

I think hes very cute and surprisingly he looks really good with dreads which i think usually dont suit white guys. He has beautiful eyes, a cool style and a nice voice. He just wasnt that ambitious and didnt care that much about AI, hes just a regular down to earth guy whos not interested in hollywood, which is fine.
Who is this guy? He looks like a character from Lord of the Rings!!
Freak.
Jason is really beautiful. His soul shines through, those eyes and teeth to die for. His was the performance I most looked forward to each week
i'm sad to see him go, hes gorgeous. and if i had to pick someone whos music i'd listen to it'd probably be his.. he's so chill... very jack johnson like. so maybe he'll be picked up by some label :)
jason was so cute, and sincere, i really loved him!! i was sad!!
He's too girly looking for me. I don't care for guys with feminine curves.
I think he is cute but he could not sing.Everytime I saw him, it was terrible.I think he made it this far on his looks.
i am soooooooooooooo glad to see him go. he should have been gone a long time ago. his sound is way past its prime. if this was done back in the 70s, he would have won.
I don't watch this crap anymore
I didn't think he had a lot of talent, but I'm sad to see him go. I found his pothead demeaner rather cute.
OH MY GOD. You are so right.
You move me Jason. And on your second song. Oh wait you haven't sang that one yet. Give me another drink.
Very talented guy (some of his performances are amongst the best AI has showcased, IMHO), but certainly not AI fodder: he's not malleable and not interested enough in stardom. Having said that, I do hope he does take the singing further, because when he's good, he's exceptional!
I think some people have lost sight of the fact that American Idol....is a SINGING competition not a "cute, adorable,dreamy, gorgeous" competition, and Jason can't sing. Period. And last night you could tell, that he didn't want to be there anyway...so he deserved to go. I'm only sorry that other far more talented people got voted off before him because people were voting for him for the his looks and not his talent, (or lack thereof)
I agree. Like I said befor, he got to where he was because of his looks.He can't sing a lick.It's not far to the ugly people that can sing.OK not ugly.I'm sorry.Less attractive.
Okay...this guy was cute but he had absolutely NO talent! He should have been gone a long, long time ago! How is this dude better than Michael Johns??? It's a joke! He only got as far as he did by his looks...not his talent! Guess what people...it's a talent show!!!
Is that his real hair? Remember some other guy had a wig on.I dont think he would even be cute without long hair.Can you picture him with a shaved head. That nose would be huge.
Just ew.
"Mr. Karaoke" - all his songs sound the same. Even William Shatner does a better job at singing. Winners are made with heart & soul not looks... Glad to see him go.
Did Julianna Margulies have a sex change?
Just wondering.
He is a beutiful man, and he could sing but i think he didnt care that much.
I love some of his performances, still my favorite was always david cook, he's soooo hot and sing so fuckin cool, i really hope he wins ;P
Very talented!
he has no talent whatsoever
I don't get it. He's ugly and his singing sucks. Those who say he got by on his looks, do you see what I see? He always has such a stupid look on his face, like he's smoked too much ganga. And he really massacred both the Bobs in his last (thank God) performance. And then there's that beak on his face....he looks like some freaky Predator-alien buzzard.
Love Jason Castro!!! Very Jack Johnson, Jason Mraz type singer. And he's gorgeous and has a goofy personality. I hope he comes out with a CD.
He's awesome and hot! I can't wait to buy his CD.
What a loss! We love him at our house. He is very talented and entertaining. He made the show, but has bigger and better things in store!Opportunities will flow in.
It's because he's drawn so many fans because of his style of music. That's what people love to hear these days. I always wanted the likes of jack johnson and john mayer and jason mraz. you'd always want to hear their songs no matter what you're feeling at the moment, and they always make you feel good. that's why he made it it to top 4. your question should be why didn't he win?
I would absolutely buy his music.
He is original and I won't forget him.I forgot David Cook already.Yawn.
jason was so good looking and i loved his draids. he had very beautiful eyes. and an amazing voice. and i love guys that have a cool sense of systle.
