Based on his facial expressions each week after surviving the vote, John Stevens wishes the American public would just let him go home. It’s getting excruciating for me to watch this kid, but we have the judges to blame for this. Had Randy, Simon and Paula not been so incredibly rude and mean-spirited in their comments a few weeks ago, Stevens would have been voted off without question. But now America feels protective of him. I do, too, and that’s why I hope he’s voted off this week so he can get on with his life and try to salvage some good memories from all of this.
