The New York pop singer Lady Gaga sang her latest hit “Poker Face,” which topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart. On last night's American Idol, Lady Gaga gave viewers a dynamic, hot performance. With killer vocals and weirdo dance moves, you couldn't avert your eyes from Gaga.

Eliminated last night was Megan Joy Corkrey – who had kind of an awkward night when she flapped her arms and impersonated some sort of ailing Pterodactyl upon learning that she was in the bottom three. Ryan Seacrest tried to ignore it, but viewers at home, as well as her fellow contestants stood shell-shocked for a moment. When Seacrest asked her about what she'd thought of the previous night's lambasting by judges, she said that she “didn’t care” about Simon Cowell's opinion.

When Seacrest revealed that it was in fact Megan who would be leaving, Simon snarked, “Just as you don’t care – nor do we." Ouch!
