Vote for the Girls (U.S. season 3) picks
The third season of Vote for the Girls, also known as Vote for the Girls 2012 premiered on November 1, 2011, and concluded on July 12, 2012. Moderators Ava Zinn, Robyn Hurd, and Holly Everman returned. On May 24, 2012, Robyn Hurd died after suffering a stroke caused from blood clots, thus making Hurd's final season as a moderator. This was the final season with three moderators.
This season has marked four firsts in the site's history: this season had moderators choosing their picks to win, as opposed to the single pick (of which were decided by Zinn under her sole discretion) to win format used in previous seasons; guest moderators were brought in as a 4th moderator; a female was not amongst the contestants remaining in the competition in the finale (Duets); and lastly, a female is the winner of the competition (Melanie Amaro of The X Factor).

- American Idol 11
- ↑ The 'Top 13' results featured 'Bottom 3' groups for each gender, with Elise Testone and non-VFTG pick Jeremy Rosado receiving the least votes among their respective genders. The judges subsequently opted to save Testone, thereby eliminating Rosado from the competition.
- ↑ Non-VFTG pick Jermaine Jones was disqualified for failing to disclose his full criminal history prior to the voting rounds commencing.
- ↑ Due to the American Idol judges using their one 'Judges' Save' per season, in order to save Sanchez, the 'Top 7' remained intact for another week.
- ↑ Zinn initially chose Hallie Day and Erika Van Pelt, but after the first week of the Top 7, decided she had "made a huge mistake" in not including Sanchez as a VFTG pick.
