Steven Tyler said Lauren, who is sick with a very contagious flu, is a shining star. Jennifer Lopez was glad Lauren stayed true to the framework of the song and made it her own. Randy Jackson told her to have a cold every week. That performance was a lot better than last week.

Lauren is safe for another week. I’m really not sure what to say. She is incredible for a 16 year-old, but she needs to mature and blow us away. There is some very tough competition this year!
