6/24/2008 Sandy Paul Nashville Star hopeful Justin Gaston lost the battle to be one of the this season's top ten finalists last night after singing his “pop goes country” version of Cyndi Lauper's “Girls Just Want To Have Fun.” The show’s host, Billy Ray Cyrus, announced Gaston received the fewest votes from fans and would be ending his Nashville Star dream. Gaston was up against Tommy Stanley, who sang “Maniac” by Michael Sembello. Gaston isn’t letting his defeat get the best of him, though. “I’m glad for the experience, and I had a great time, so thank you everybody,” he said. Finalists performed Madonna's "Like a Prayer" as a group this week before each individual did a song of their choice.  Stanley will join the other nine finalists and move on to the next round of Nashville Star.
