Tonight's
American Idol will not be live—not because the producers are in a post-Sanjaya mourning period, but because tomorrow night's two-hour "Idol Gives Back" special will probably exhaust everyone involved, especially if
Spectral Elvis shows up as threatened. (Don't forget: We'll be liveblogging the whole affair, starting at 8 p.m. ET.) So the spoilers for this week's episode
were out in full force all over the Internet, and we've got them after the jump, along with a thumbnail of the judges' reactions and, oddly, each contestant's sartorial picks. (We figured that, given Bono's presence as the kids' mentor this week, they'd all wear items from Project (RED), but we guess that was a little too crass.)

Idolator
David Cook. 
With six hours to go until the final episode of this American Idol season, our poll, DialIdol, and Zabasearch are all claiming that David Cook's grunge revivalism has won the Internet version of the show, despite the three judges last night being firmly in the tank for David Archuleta. Whether or not those predictions are correct is an outcome we'll all have to wait many hours for, but in the two hours between the show's opening sequence and the confetti-filled finale, we're going to have lots of entertainment to fill the time (and live-blogging space! what, you thought I was going to miss this?) between commercial breaks. Rumors are flying that Madonna, the Jonas Brothers, and Seal (?!) are going to show up—we've collected a bunch of finale spoilers after the jump.
