In a recent interview, the recently-eliminated American Idol contestant Naima Adedapo blamed teenage girls for keeping the male contestants while eliminating nearly all of the girls in succession.

They dominate, and that’s all right, but I feel like [the female contestants] didn’t really have too many conversations about it because we are all pretty confident in our work. It is the reality of the situation. The teenyboppers, once they fall in love…they’re in that generation. My audience was more kind of the older crowd who are not necessarily as technology savvy sometimes. So I would get people saying ‘Yeah, I voted for you three times!’ ”
