Is the number of Twitter followers a measure of how popular an American Idol finalist is?
In a way, yes, because Hailey and Naima have the least followers, and during the previous 2 weeks, they were in the Bottom 3 of the competition.
However, it's not always the case as Casey Abrams, who has the 2nd highest number of followers, had the lowest number of votes from the viewers for this week and both Hailey and Naima were not part of the Bottom 3.
Anyone of them still has equal chances of winning American Idol.
And for Thia, the youngest finalist, I hope she survives 'til the end of the competition.
