Irish singer Smithson voted off American Idol
The music of composer Andrew Lloyd Webber marked the end of the road for “American Idol” finalist Carly Smithson on Wednesday after fans of the hit TV talent show cast the fewest votes for her rendition of “Superstar.”
The Irish singer, who lives in San Diego, gave a strong performance on Tuesday of the hit from the musical “Jesus Christ Superstar,” drawing uniform praise by the show’s judges as among her best.
But after 38 million votes were cast by the show’s fans, Smithson came last.
