Will Phillip Phillips, Jessica Sanchez or Joshua Ledet get cut? It's hard to tell this season who'll make the final two.

In most years, the penultimate week of “American Idol” serves to finally eliminate the interloper, the singer who’s clearly at a disadvantage compared to the top two. Last year it was Haley Reinhart, whose exit paved the way for the Scotty McCreery-Lauren Alaina finale that everyone expected, and Casey James ceded the floor to Lee DeWyze and Crystal Bowersox in season nine. (Hey, it made sense at the time.) In most other “Idol” seasons, by the time we got to the middle of May, everyone knew who the two favorites were.

That’s not true in season 11. And while a gambler would probably lay the odds on a Joshua Ledet-Phillip Phillips final with Jessica Sanchez going home Thursday, there’s a legitimate case to be made that any of the remaining contestants could be in danger this week.

Phillip got the most criticism of anyone on Wednesday, as nobody liked the song he chose for himself (Matchbox 20’s “Disease”). But that was only one of his three performances, and when he closed the show strong with Jimmy Iovine’s pick, Bob Seger's “We’ve Got Tonight,” he came through with best individual effort of the evening. He’s the only one of the remaining finalists who has never been revealed as one of the lowest vote-getters, so he’s the best individual bet to keep going.

In sharp contrast to Phillip’s easy road to the final three, Joshua nearly didn’t even make it out of the first week. Imagine how different this season would have gone had he been eliminated back in March instead of Jeremy Rosado. Joshua was again in the bottom three when there were seven contestants remaining, but he’s been the strongest of anyone since that latter scare. He seemed to be the favorite of the judges (again) on Wednesday, even if his final song of the night -- Mary J. Blige's "No More Drama" -- was a bit over-the-top in its frenzy.

And speaking of struggling, the same week in April that Joshua was in the bottom three, Jessica would have been eliminated had the judges not used their save on her. She’s sailed through the past month since then, but this wasn’t her best week. None of her solos stood out, and she was the lone finalist to not get a standing ovation from the judges.

If Phillip and Joshua do make it to the finale, they will both owe an assist to Jimmy. The mentor is the one who picked “We’ve Got Tonight” for Phillip, as well as prodding Joshua to go with Blige’s tune – the only one of Joshua’s three songs that wasn’t at least 35 years old.

For Jessica? He picked “I’ll Be There” by the Jackson 5, an attempt to make her sound younger. It didn’t work because she literally can’t make herself sound her age. She’s an old singing soul in a young body, like it or not.

Also noteworthy was that Phillip got credit for a “moment” with his final number, though that might have been for the distracting way he was petting his leg with his left hand as much as it was for his vocals. He also earned an “in it to win it” from Randy Jackson for the last effort.

Meanwhile, Jessica had to content herself with an endorsement from the last-place San Diego Padres. The last “Idol” finalist to be touted by a sports team having a mediocre year was Hollie Cavanagh, who got support from Liverpool's English Premier League (that’s soccer, for the non-sports fans). That didn’t seem to help her much.

Then again, Steven Tyler did insinuate early in the show that he expected Jessica to win. So who knows? Unlike most years, it’s truly anybody’s competition with just one week remaining.

You can't kill off Charlie Sheen that easily! Sure, the folks behind "Two and a Half Men" had the actor's playboy Charlie Harper meet a bloody end when he was hit by a subway, but that's not the end of that joke.

In a new teaser for his new FX comedy "Anger Management," Sheen embraces Harper's death and uses it to launch his upcoming project. The trailer shows the actor walk into the path of an oncoming train, then later emerges from the fiery wreck unscathed.

"C'mon, everyone deserves a 24th chance," he quips.

Check it out:

When the new series was announced, the actor said he chose the project because "while it might be a big stretch for me to play a guy with some serious anger management issues, I think it is a great concept." The series is based on the 2003 Jack Nicholson film of the same name.

"Anger Management" premieres at on June 28 at 9 p.m. on FX.

Jenelle Evans now has a flashy accessory to go with her new chest: an engagement ring from Gary Head! The "Teen Mom 2" star tweeted a picture of herself and her sparkler on Wednesday. "I'm the luckiest girl in the world to have @gary_head in my life," she wrote.

A close friend of Jenelle's tells E! News that Gary "surprised her on a Monday when she was dropping (her 3-year-old son) Jace off at her mom's and (proposed) there on one knee and all."

Sources say "Idol" judge Jennifer Lopez is bidding the show farewell after the season.

Jennifer Lopez may have just been named by Forbes magazine today as the most powerful celebrity, but her reign at "American Idol" is coming to an end.

While J.Lo has publicly said she has yet to make a decision about her future on "Idol," sources exclusively tell me that she she's planning on calling it quits.

More from E: Jennifer Lopez Talks Marc Anthony, Casper Smart 

"She's just too busy," one source said.

That's so very true.

She's about to launch a mega concert tour with Enrique Iglesias that kicks off this summer in Latin America and the U.S. She plans to go worldwide in the fall.

I'm told Lopez will be on the road, at the very least, through the end of the year.

The next round of "Idol" auditions will begin while she's overseas.

The superstar apparently wants to free up her schedule next year, possibly taking a little hiatus from work to be with her kids.

"It is just like any working mom's dilemma," Lopez told us at Monday's premiere of "What to Expect When You're Expecting." "It's tough. It's a balancing act. You put them first and then you have all these other things that you have to do, that you have to give your time to as well, and you have to make sure that they're OK in the process."

Fox declined to comment on Lopez's future with the show.

Lopez has been on "Idol" for two seasons with one-year contracts for both.

Now the question is, will Fox try to change Lopez's mind with a much bigger payday?

Some fans were surprised to see Maria Menounos and Derek Hough get the ballroom boot on Tuesday night, but it wasn't exactly a shock to Hough.

It was a shocker for many ballroom fans to see Maria Menounos, who received a chart-topping 59 (out of 60) points on Monday night's "Dancing With the Stars," sent home just before the finals. But that’s just what happened.

Who wasn’t surprised? Menounos’ own partner Derek Hough.

"I had a feeling," he told Today.com shortly after the ouster. "(Monday) night was so much fun. I almost felt like, 'OK. That was it.'"

In fact, both Menounos and Hough were ready for the elimination play out the way it did.

"I had a real sense of calm (on Tuesday)," Menounos admitted. "I said, 'Whatever happens will happen.' I’m going to be good. But yes, Derek told me, ‘Babe, I think we’re getting eliminated.’ I was like, 'Really?' He said, 'Yeah.' I said, 'OK. I’m going to prepare.'"

Hough, a three-time winner of "DWTS," felt that it was his duty to help prepare his partner. He also feels that it’s better to either come in first place or fourth in the competition. Now, he and Menounos won’t have to prepare for next week’s dances, which include an all-out freestyle routine.

"The finals are really stressful," he noted. "It’s harder to be that close (to winning it all) than this close (where we come in fourth.) We literally had not had a bad dance. I felt like Monday night was Maria’s night. She kicked butt and got five 10s from the judges."

After Katherine Jenkins was injured at the conclusion of her second dance on Monday's performance show, Menounos dispatched her medical team to Jenkins. "Later, my team came up to me and said, 'Maria, we took care of (Katherine), but we shouldn’t do that anymore. She’s your competition.' I said, 'Guys! This isn’t the Olympics. She’s my friend. Go take care of her!'"

While Menounos and Hough now leave the finals to Jenkins, Donald Driver and William Levy and their pro partners, it won’t be long before "DWTS" fans see the eliminated pair again. The duo, along with all the other ejected pairs from this season, will return for next week’s finale and perform one last routine.

"That’s what is so great about (leaving just before the finals)," Hough pointed out. "You go the whole season long. You have a couple of days break and then you come back for the finale and you do one more dance!"

The Kardashian clan keeps the rumor mill churning: Is Khloe really a Kardashian? Did matriarch Kris Jenner have cosmetic surgery? And what about Kanye and Kim, aka "Kimye?" TODAY's Matt Lauer grilled Jenner Tuesday on each and every one of these important slivers of gossip.

"Ridiculous!" said Jenner to both whether she's about to get fired as "mom-ager" to her daughters and to whether Khloe's real dad is Robert Kardashian. "The girls sell magazines ... it's easy fodder. So the girls and I work together every single day, and we have an amazing relationship and ... I know when to take that (mom-ager) hat off and when to put it on. We have a nice relationship."

Jenner on Kim and Kanye: 'She knows what she's doing'

As for that fat lip Jenner sports in an upcoming episode of "Keeping Up with the Kardashians," which is now in the midst of filming its seventh season, there was no cosmetic surgery, but Jenner remained coy as to the reason behind it. "You have to tune in, because it's unbelievable," she said.

Yes, yes, but ... Kanye! What about Kim's relationship with Kanye? That's where Jenner buttoned her lip. "I stopped commenting about the details in my kids' friendships and relationships, because I get nothing but in trouble," she said, then added, "He's great and she seems happy."

With all of these rumors and misinformation that gets out there, though, Lauer had to wonder: Why keep doing the show? Jenner recently signed on for three more seasons, and he asked about losing private time. "It's almost unusual not to have all the cameras in our lives," she said. "It's an opportunity for me as a mom -- I get to wake up every single day and work with my kids.... It's somewhat addictive in that ... we can't wait to do it."

"Grey's Anatomy" viewers, buckle up: you're in for screams, blood, exposed bones and a completely stressful episode if the first six minutes of Thursday's Season 8 finale are any indication of what's coming.

STORY: "Grey's Anatomy's" Shonda Rhimes on the deadly finale: "We're literally saying goodbye to people"

After a plane carrying some of Seattle Grace's best and brightest crashed into a forest, Meredith (Ellen Pompeo), Derek (Patrick Dempsey), Cristina (Sandra Oh), Lexie (Chyler Leigh), Mark (Eric Dane) and Arizona's (Jessica Capshaw) lives were left hanging in the balance.

Showrunner Shonda Rhimes has warned that the episode, fittingly titled "Flight," will include what she calls a "pretty big death."

STORY: "Grey's Anatomy" Recap: Whose lives are hanging in the balance?

"We're not talking [about] some guest star [who] is going to come in and die kind of thing; it's a big death and it's fairly shocking," she told The Hollywood Reporter during a recent interview. "It was hard, it was hard to write, it was hard to listen to at the table read. It is a difficult thing to do and not done lightly. When one of your main characters dies, it always affects the heart and soul of the hospital."

So who will survive the first six minutes? Watch the clip to find out, but be warned: it's graphic and severely cringe-inducing.

"Grey's Anatomy's" Season 8 finale airs Thursday at 9 p.m. on ABC.

Who's "Got Talent"? Granny G, the 80-year-old rapper, does, if Tuesday night's performance was anything to go by.

Howard Stern likes opera-singing nurses and rapping grandmas. Who knew? Night two of "America’s Got Talent" auditions brought the traveling circus to San Francisco, where the acts got more compelling — and so did the backstories.

No one captured the hearts of the judges — and the audience — like 21-year-old Alonzo “Turf” Jones, an “extreme hip-hop contortionist dancer” who was homeless for two years after being kicked out of his home by his mother. Turf, it seems, can do things with his body that hurt most of us just to watch. But he is certainly impressive to watch.  And when he started crying tears before the judges even spoke, you could feel potential voters already throwing their support behind him.

“You are a true original and I think you are what we’re looking for,” Howard told him.

Turf will easily make it to New York — and he’ll probably have some company from his hometown.

Ratings Slip with addition of Howard Stern

Among the night’s other standouts:

TIM HOCKENBERRY, 49 (singer)
Tim showed up with his girlfriend, 3-week-old baby girl and a standard issue back story about battling the bottle. Singing in public made him nervous, he said. “The only time I could pull it off is if I had enough beer or wine in me. I knew I was an alcoholic pretty early — around 17 or 18 years old.” Now clean and sober, the Binghamton, New York native took the stage to deliver a raspy version of “You Are So Beautiful” that Joe Cocker might have had a tough time beating. Tim has the look, sound and story to win the whole thing.

LUIS MENAGHIN, 54 (nurse)
Up until now, the only audiences that had heard Luis’ amazing opera voice were the folks at the old-folks home he works at.  “Every day down at work they gather after lunch in the lobby, and I sing for half an hour for them,” he explained. “I tell them that I sing opera for them because it helps them with their bowel movements.” Turns out the Brazilian import (by way of Utah) has quite a voice.  He’s no Susan Boyle, but impressive enough to make it to Vegas and probably beyond.

DAVID GARIBALDI & CMYK’S, 25 (concept painters/dancers)
Both original and amazing, David had the audience roaring as he performed a dance routine with his team while each of them took turns splashing colored paints on a huge canvas. In less than 2 minutes they had created an incredible portrait of Beethoven (though Howard admitted he thought it was a painting of him).

See the boy Howard Stern made cry

GRANNY G., 80 (rapper/comic)
Where else in prime time can an octogenarian come on stage with a walker, grab her backside and earn a free trip to Vegas? Granny G performed a rap that basically warned young men to be responsible and not ditch their baby mamas. But all she really had to do was come on stage and smile. If the judges let her advance to New York, expect Granny G to be a shoo-in for the Top 10.

Derek and Maria may have delivered what the judges considered a perfect Argentine tango Monday, but viewers voted not to advance the pair.

Monday night may have been “a triumphant victory” in TV personality Maria Menounos’ opinion, but viewers apparently felt differently.

Sure, she topped the leaderboard and had the judges gushing over her “perfect” Argentine tango (which featured some posture and line issues) and 29-point jive that lacked content. But viewers weren’t as impressed and gave their votes to finalists Donald Driver, Katherine Jenkins and William Levy, thus denying Maria’s pro partner, Derek Hough, a fourth mirror ball trophy.

Was it an attempt by fans to balance the judges’ questionable scoring? Hard to say. But it was strange that head judge Len Goodman -- who has always been quick to slam performances that didn’t contain very many moves of the assigned dance -- actually pointed out that her jive lacked enough of the signature moves, but still opted to ignore the omissions. He busted out his 9 paddle while fellow judges Bruno Tonioli and Carrie Ann Inaba raised their 10s. (Perhaps Len had enjoyed a few of his "happy pills" with his fellow panelists prior to the show?)

Still, they were impressive scores, especially considering Maria apparently hadn’t nailed down her dances prior to the performance show. “We didn’t know our dances (Monday) until we got on the floor, really,” she admitted during her exit interview.

With her ouster, viewers will also be missing out on more of her infamous laugh and ear-piercing screams of excitement, not to mention the crying. Since premiere week, the TV personality has treated viewers to quite a few tears, some thanks to the stress of the competition, others due to the numerous injuries she has reportedly suffered (bruised ribs, fractured feet and a hard face plant, to name the big ones) during the season. “I learned how strong I was. I learned how to persevere,” she said after her elimination. With such serious injuries, she certainly did learn how to persist despite the pain!

Speaking of injuries, host Tom Bergeron revealed that Katherine – who was the first contestant declared safe -- will be able to continue on in the competition despite suffering a back injury during her salsa Monday night. As proof, after the opera singer learned that she would be moving on to the finals, she jumped around with abandon and later laughed that she may have retweaked her back while celebrating. Oops!

Wendy Williams Show

On Tuesday, the Robertson family of A&E's "Duck Dynasty" paid a visit to "The Wendy Williams Show." But they weren't there just to promote their program or the family business (they create top-of-the-line duck calls out of swamp wood, and it's very profitable). No, the clan wanted to share a little something from their dinner table as well.

As fans of "Duck Dynasty" may know, matriarch Miss Kay is quite happy in the kitchen, cooking up the critters that her family brings home. And for their appearance, she whipped up a batch of fried squirrels for their host to nosh on.

"Now, I know you probably know, but I included the head to give you the ... I just wanted to give you the effect," Miss Kay told the self-proclaimed foodie.

After taking a tentative little bite, Wendy declared, "It tastes like chicken!"

David Caruso and Jonathan Togo on the now canceled "CSI: Miami."

A procedural drama with a bigger audience than the renewed "CSI: NY." A teenage drama with a bigger audience than the renewed "Gossip Girl." A crime show with a bigger audience than almost everything.

Here's a rundown of some of the top-rated TV shows that got axed as the broadcast networks unveiled their new fall schedules:

1. "Unforgettable": A Top 25 show, the one-and-done Poppy Montgomery series was TV's most-watched drama or comedy to rate a pink slip. But like "Rob," another show offed by CBS despite a similar- and good-sized audience of about 12 million, "Unforgettable" appears to have been punished for being the weakest link, relatively speaking, on an otherwise powerhouse night for the network.

More from E: Check out Connie Britton's 'Nashville,' Scott Speedman's 'Last Resort' and more

2. "CSI: Miami": In its 10th season, it averaged 10.5 million viewers, not far off from its ninth-season performance. At the same time, it was not far behind "CSI" (12.4 million) and was a bit ahead of "CSI: NY" (10.5 million), both of which are coming back. Speculation on its demise has centered on its production costs.

3. "Terra Nova": The freshman dinosaur drama was declared dead in March, but its audience of 10 million viewers still looms large, and larger in fact than every Fox series, canceled or renewed, save for "American Idol" and "The X Factor." The closed-down "Alcatraz" (9.6 million viewers) was Fox's second-biggest snubee.

4. "Missing": ABC didn't take out a bigger show than the midseason-launched Ashley Judd thriller, which averaged 8.9 million viewers but lacked for a young-adult audience as badly as Kathy Bates' "Harry's Law" (8.9 million viewers). The latter series, by the way, wasn't just NBC's most-watched cancellation victim, but also the struggling network's most-watched scripted series overall.

5. "The Secret Circle": With 2.1 million viewers, the only CW drama with a bigger audience than this forsaken freshman series was its lead-in, "The Vampire Diaries." Once again a series seems to have suffered for being awarded one of its network's golden time slots.

When Kim, Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian get together, you know you're in for an entertaining time. Particularly when some good-natured sibling ribbing is the order of the day.

When the E! stars sat down on "The Tonight Show" Monday night, the sisters gabbed about everything from Kanye West to the impending birth of Kourt's new baby girl to the rumors that Khloe was leaving the reality business to even -- yes, they went there -- Kim's still-fresh pending divorce.

Jay Leno wasted no time in questioning Kim on her relationship with Kanye, asking her about his song, "Theraflu," purportedly about his new girlfriend.

"I don't know if he wrote it for me," she began.

"I feel like the lyrics kinda say he wrote it for you," Khloe interjected. "I think the song is self-explanatory. I think it definitely says it's for her."

"I think my name's in it," Kim conceded, prompting laughs from the audience. A fairly good indicator, then, as clues go.

That wasn't the only time Khloe got the best of Kim during the interview. While promoting the seventh season of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians," Kim began rehashing the paternity drama that recently surrounded Khloe, explaining that her late father's exes were to blame for fanning the flames of the rumors.

"My dad's ex-wives that he was married to for two seconds..." Kim began, but Khloe quickly -- and to applause, "oohs" and entertained gasps from the audience -- said, "Runs in the family."

Oh yes, she went there. Kim good-naturedly rolled with the punch. "That was a good one," she said.

Meanwhile, Khloe also denied that her and Lamar Odom's temporary hiatus from their eponymous reality show signaled the beginning of the end for them on the small screen.

"I understand that people need to sell magazines," she said. "I didn't pull the plug on any show, we just wanted the summer (off)."

"I mean, Lamar and I have fun doing what we're doing. 'Keeping Up' is a show that we're taping and that we always do. I don't know how something spun so far out in the media. We're just doing what makes us happy, so until it doesn't make us happy, we'll do it. We're just taking the summer off. It's like we're in school, and now it's summer."

Which also means that the birth of Kourtney's second child is drawing ever closer. But can viewers expect to be treated to another video of the birth like her infamous footage delivering Mason?

"I don't know," she told Jay. "We're gonna film it again ourselves, and honestly, my experience last time was so peaceful and calm and everything you don't see in the movies. And I really wanted to share that with people so they knew it doesn't have to be a crazy screaming session."

Kourtney said that she and Scott Disick will decide after the fact "if we're into sharing it or not."

Now that would be must-see TV.
