Ramiele Goes Home
Little Ramiele Malubay has a big voice, but it wasn't enough to keep her around -- she was voted off "American Idol" last night. She barely made it through Dolly Parton's "Do I Ever Cross Your Mind?" as she sobbed through her swan song.
Ramiele, 20, was known for her over-the-top tears. She was often seen red-faced with her hands over her mouth each time a contestant got kicked off. Earlier this month, she even dedicated a performance of the Beatles' "In My Life" to booted "Idol" Danny Noriega.
Judge Simon Cowell called Ramiele's performances "forgettable," but guest mentor Dolly Parton had other ideas. "The fact that she's little ain't gonna stop her from doin' big things," said the busty country doll.
Meanwhile, rocker David Cook returned to the stage after Tuesday's medical scare. "The whole thing kind of got blown out of proportion," he told host Ryan Seacrest. "I have high blood pressure, and it spiked, so they took me to the nearest hospital. But I'm cool. I'm not going anywhere."
