Wednesday’s ‘Now & Then’ performance show brought tears for James, praise for Scotty, a parachute gown for Lauren, and some serious “WTF”-ery aimed at the judges from fans sick of hearing about who is “in it to win it”…and not much else. Earlier today, we asked What’s the judges’ beef with ‘Idol’ contestant Haley?; then later on, over 92 percent of you predicted it would be Jacob Lusk heading home tonight. Update:

Jacob Lusk has been eliminated.

Lauren Alaina joined Jacob in the bottom two.

Look for my full recap later tonight.
