It's Destiny!'s own Liza and Tammy continue their coverage of Rock Star: Supernova. Following is Liza's take on the this week's results episode.

LIGHTNING STRIKES TWICE
(Recap by Liza)

With a trip to Las Vegas with the band awaiting the surviving members of tonight's Rock Star: Supernova result show, the stakes increased. And the band decided to decrease the amount of competitors by dropping both Josh Logan and Jill Gioia from the competition in a double elimination.

After a strong set of performances, the rockers toasted themselves at the mansion for a job well done. But drama couldn't stay away for very long, as Jill took the other women to task for not choosing the song with Gilby Clarke, conveniently forgetting that she didn't either. As Lukas Rossi and Toby Rand look on with amusement, Storm Large takes exception and shoots back that she doesn't need to prove to herself or Gilby that she can stand up there with him. She didn't choose the song because she wanted to do "We Are The Champions". Zayra notes that picking a song that doesn't suit you just to play with one of the band members is like hanging yourself.

Back in the studio, Dave Navarro asks Storm what makes her so sure that Gilby knows she can hang with him, and she is a bit flustered for the first time and acknowledges that she doesn't know. Gilby tells the rockers that playing with them is about seeing if they have chemistry with the band, and it's disappointing that no one wanted to play with him (considering that Phil, Patrice, Jill, and now Josh have had less than success with pairing up with the Supernovians, is it any wonder? - Tammy).

Encore time, and the band says they had difficulty choosing between such great performances, so they have two encores. First is Lukas, who gets his first encore and repeats his stellar performance of "Creep". Magni becomes the first to earn multiple encores, and this time does "The Dolphins Cry" plugged in with the House Band.

Brooke Burke next announces the rockers who were in the bottom 3 at some point during the voting period. She calls up Jill, Josh, Zayra, Patrice and Ryan, the latter announcement getting loud gasps of "WHAT?!" The first rocker in the final bottom three is ... not Zayra, who is told to sit down. It's Jill. She decides to sing "Respect" because rock is based on the blues, and she wants to rock it out. And what she does instead is oversing it like she's on American Idol or at a wedding reception. Her vocals are spot on, but seriously, if Supernova booted Matt for doing Duran Duran, you'd think they'd offer up the same punishment for doing Aretha Franklin the way Jill did.

Next up singing for his life is Josh, making Tommy the hatchet-man in more ways than one, since Josh is the second consecutive singer to play with Tommy and land in the bottom 3. Josh sings "Shooting Star" by Bad Company and head bobs while playing guitar, which is partly what landed him in the bottom 3. The difference this time, though, is he sings very clearly this time, without the nasal affectation that hurt his singing voice on "Interstate Love Song".

Rounding out the bottom 3 is Ryan, who went from earning the encore last week to hitting the bottom 3 for the first time this week (is it wrong that I loved how his landing in the B3 was met with boos by the crowd...Patrice probably felt a wee bit unpopular...heh- Tammy). Jason Newsted wonders if he's confusing people with his two different sides. Ryan, who says "this should be fun", chooses "Enjoy The Silence", the announcement of which brings a roar from the crowd. He hopes the crowd cheers as loud after he's done. And they should because the way he modernized that song was wicked! He even survived nearly falling off the stage when he either lost his balance or some idiot fangirl tried to pull him down from the stage.

After noting that Ryan's movements on stage are a bit questionable (I'm guessing it's the herky-jerky lurching backward thing), Supernova tells him that he want to see him have another chance and sends him back to safety, leaving Josh and Jill to face the chopping block. Hatchet-man Tommy Lee says "this has never happened before" and cuts both Josh and Jill. Tommy apparently didn't watch Rock Star: INXS last year when INXS dropped both Heather and Daphna on the same night. The two take it well, and Josh (who looks more relieved than upset- Tammy) breaks the tension by asking "Does this mean I can't go to Vegas?" With that, Jason tells them that their spirit will be missed and that they will do just fine after this.
