American Idol Season 7 : Goodbye JASON CASTRO

It's now down to 3 !

Yesterday Simon Cowell harshly said "Jason, I'd pack your suitcase," to Castro after he flubbed the words to Bob Dylan's "Mr. Tambourine Man". The dreadlocked heartthrob was voted off "American Idol" today (Manila time) as the show narrowed the competition to three finalists: David Cook, David Archuleta and Syesha Mercado.

Castro said this week he tried to pick songs he knew -- "Mr Tambourine Man" and Bob Marley's "I Shot the Sheriff" -- and yet he "screwed it up."

After Castro's cover of "I Shot the Sheriff," a less-than-impressed Cowell said: "I don't know what you're thinking!"

Castro replied: "I'm thinking, Bob Marley!"

Castro had his share of spacey moments while he was in the running, like when a viewer asked Wednesday what the contestants' biggest challenges were in the competition. Castro answered: "Just the brain being dead."
