Mandisa only had 2 bad weeks & has never been in the bottom 3 while Ace has been in the bottom 3 for a while & hasn't done that great so it was country week & MAYBE current hits week that did it for her. We know she's a great performer & has the most powerful voice so it doesn't make sense that she went home.
Btw, Shakira refused to help the contestants on current hits week, which is why most of them sucked, so I blame Shakira for that one :lol:
