JoesPlace has released 18 of the top 24 and also named 5 people who were cut (the site seems to be overloaded with traffic!). Jessica Cunningham and Eryn Kelly were cut (no shock, we haven't seen them), Hoillie Cavanagh was cut (boring), and John Wayne Schulz was cut (haha, frauen) but the big news is that Chris Medina was cut. This was brilliant on the producers' part. Chris would've gotten to the end of the show without even trying based on the pimping of his handicapped fiancee, so kicking him out now saved us months of agony and boredom. Nice call, Nigel!
The contestants who have made it to the top 24 so far are:
1. Ashthon Jones
2. Brett Loewenstern
3. Casey Abrams
4. Clint Jun Gamboa
5. Jacee Badeaux
6. James Durbin
7. Jordan Dorsey
8. Jovany Barreto

18. Scott McCreery
There are still 6 more contestants to figure out. If you know who made it, send us a letter at mail@votefortheworst.com. Anonymity guaranteed.
On our radio show just now, JoesPlace just spoiled that Brett Loewenstern and Jacee Badeaux are in the top 24. VFTW Victory! Thanks, JP.
