Siobhan Magnus petition to have her return to 'American Idol'
Siobhan Magnus petition to have her return to 'American Idol'


A petition with over 5,000 signatures has been circulating the web in an effort to get Cape Cod native, Siobhan Mangus, reinstated on "American Idol".

Fans are insisting that she be returned to the show as a wrong number posted by a third party to a Siobhan fan-site on Facebook was wrong.

So instead of voting for their favorite contestant- in this case Siobhan- fans were calling a number for other contestants.

Outraged at the mistake, Siobhan fans have taken to the Internet looking for signatures to get Siobhan back in the game.

Unfortunately we all know that isn't going to happen.

The only way Siobhan will make it back onto that stage will be in the final episode when the top 10 are brought back for a celebratory song.

Even though the digital petition is not going to make any difference, it's nice to know that Siobhan has so many fans who care so deeply for her.

Hey LoveDoolin, Siobhan was NEVER screaming. Learn something about singing along with greats such as Aretha Franklin and Kelly Clarkson, who were both considered to be "screechy screamers" by t_ards like your self. It's a style of singing called "belting". Simon was doing that to make sure Siobhan had no chance of going up against his two favorites Crystal and Lee in the finale. And the uninformed sheep fell for it. If Simon had panned maybe only 1/2 of Siobhan's performances he would have been believable. But no, he had to pan like 10 of 11, or 10 of 12 of them. That made it obvious he was out to make her look worse than she was. Even Tim Urban got more love and was praised on 4 different nights by the judges. While Siobhan was on, Crystal got praised nearly every time but one, and then was told she was beaten by Siobhan. Notice Simon was always comparing the two because he was worried Siobhan was going win it. He couldn't let it go. Siobhan is an amazing singer, took chances and brought amazing performances. Crystal while very good tended to be a little boring, play-it-safe, one trick pony that sounded the same from week to week. IN fact, the judges finally hinted she need to step up her game last week. A little late... Siobhan is no longer on idol because every last thing was stacked against her. I thought she should win. But even if she didn't, she should have at least made the finale, or the top 3.

Had Siobhan stopped the weekly screaming in her song, I think she would still be there. She followed her conscience instead of the advice given to her by the judge - that's why she's no longer aspiring to be the "American Idol".

Clear this up. So, you are saying that fans got the call-in number off of facebook instead of from the the T.V.show? Who was the facebook number for? Was that person in the bottom two?
