Well, as some might have heard already (it's posted on youtube and it happened in front of 15,000 people)...Gina got engaged tonight to her longtime boyfriend Joe. Joe is seriously one of my favorite people in the world, and he's marrying one of my favorite people. Congrats to Joe and Gina.
It was great to watch...good day for all.
My name is Chris Sligh. As an artist I'm award-winning, critically acclaimed & mildly-to-not popular; I wrote a number 1 song (Here Comes Goodbye) for Rascal Flatts. I'm married to Sarah and I'm deeply in love. Most importantly, I am a Christ-follower.

I saw the video on youtube. It was freakin cute. Congrats Gina and Joe! I'm so excited for them, they're such a sweet couple.
I saw front row tickets for tomorrow night's show on ticketmaster, it was very tempting! Unfortunately I'll be on a plane back home, bla.
Awww, good for them. Gina's one of my favorites.
How cute is that?? :) I'm so happy for them!! You'll have to tell them that your blogger girls/core group/fro patro tell them congratulations! Will you do that for us? :)

My little sister and I were in the audience for Joe’s proposal. It seemed like Phil had a little secret during his duet with Gina (just prior to the proposal), he was singing the love song to her in such a way that it made her laugh. When Phil introduced Joe… we said, how cool would that be if he was proposing…
I think we figured out what was happening just as Gina did, as she put her hand over her mouth in shock right when we started screaming… then when he got on one knee… it was all over… the girl-y-ness took over.
It was so cool to see her so surprised and excited. And it was an honor to be a part of such a special moment. It truly seemed like she was floating on a cloud the entire evening… and I bet that made you happy to watch.
Just my little take
Please pass on my Congratulations to Gina and Joe… and please tell her that there were two girls (her age) in the audience that were cheering for her moment!
My wife and I were at the show last night. This was our first AI tour so we have no comparisons to prior years. We both thought it would be fun since Gina is a hometown girl, and while she wasn't either of our favorites from the top ten we both liked her.
It was crazy to see the proposal live. For a second I was worried she'd say no, but of course she said yes...
As for the concert itself, I was absolutely astounded by the crowd response to Blake, I think he may be the big winner from this years group. Jordan sounded a bit hoarse and kept drinking water so perhaps she had a cold. Although it was cool to see Jordan play the guitar!!!
I also enjoyed the boys singing with instruments... Great to see that side of you all. Phil on the keys and Richardson playing drums was something I didn't expect!
Your solo was very cool... only really bad comment was the venue... Allstate is a horrible place for a concert and the sound sometimes wasn't the best...
I had fun.... and it looked like you all had fun too! Congrats again to Gina!!!
Oh! I'm so happy for them! They are just perfect for each other. I'm going to go check it out on youtube now
Congratulations Gina + Joe! <3
Happy B-Day Risa! Have you started counting backwards yet?
And a big congrats to Gina and Joe - I just got married July 7th and am still walking on a cloud. She was my second fav (after Chris of course) and was sorry to see her go. Best Wishes to them!

Risalea--Happy Birthday!! Aw, Sanjaya could've done the hula for you ;-)
You and Gina were my favorite contestants this season. I saw the video and I'm really happy for Gina and Joe! It was so cute and romantic. Good luck with the rest of the tour Chris!

Chris it was so cool of you to give Carmen a shout out in your tv guide interview! I'm glad that you're just as excited as I am that Carmen's coming up to the DC show - *attempting to contain squeals of excitement*.
And I also find it fascinating that you're related to the ventriliquist on America's Got Talent! He was great. His turtle doing Kermit impression was amazing. I didn't watch my tivo yet this week so I dont know if he made the cut, but I hope he did!
Quick question that you may or may not want to answer - Carmen and I were wondering if Sarah would be coming up to the DC show on September 9th, since you're hoping to see her every couple of weeks now. If so, we'll definitely hook her up with some Chinese for dinner (the Verizon Center's in China Town). It'd be great to have so many of your Core Group (myself, Carmen, Girlygirl) get to hang out with her.
Have a great rest of your week!
Lori
Thanks, Lori, for the heads up on the TV guide interview. I found that online. And go, Carmen! You girls are going to have the best time in DC. And thanks again, all, for the birthday wishes. You helped make my day. Risa
Congrats to Gina & Joe. Nice to read how much admired they are by our man!
