Some old "American Idol" trends crumbled tonight. They included:

1) Latino landslide. Remember 2007, when 42 per cent of the top 12 were Latino? That was the year of David Archuleta, Ramiele Malubay, Jason Castro, Syesha Mercado and David Hernandez. Maybe that wasn't a coincidence, we figured. Maybe Latinos are especially popular or have a great voting base. Well, maybe not. Tonight, Ashley Rodgriguez and Joe Munoz were two of the first four dumped. By surname, at least, there's only one Latino (Andrew Garcia) left in the top 20.
