Up next was Big Mike, who sang "Will You Be There For Me" from Free Willy. But Simon seemed more preoccupied comprehending what Free Willy was while the judges explained why they weren't thrilled with his predictable performance. His wife, Christa Angelelli, was still a permanent fixture, clapping and smiling from ear-to-ear after his performance.

Michael told reporters about Simon's comments, "Focus on what's real, focus on what we're here about... But I love that guy."

"It's a very intimate song," Lee told reporters. "It's a very emotional song. If anything, I think it helped me to just get into the song by being that close and singing."

Crystal added with a smile, "I like Lee and his music. We had a great time."
