Sanjaya Does Nationwide!

TMZ is reporting that Sanjya is going the way of ex-idol performers Melinda Dolittle and Diana DeGarmo by hawking a product in a fun, silly commercial. Mr. Malakar will be using his Idol status to promote Nationwide Insurance. Click the link to read the article

sweet news for kristy lee!

Hey Y'all - Kristy Lee's getting hitched! I saw the article above and thought I'd share it with the blog. (I think you can click on it to make it big enough to read.) At least there's a silver lining to Kristy's departure from Idol - and doesn't she look great here?

CMT Awards

A veritable bevy of Idol contestants were present in the nominees for the CMT awards this year. Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood and Kellie Pickler were all multiple nominees. Even Bucky Covincton (Y'all know you remember "Fat Bottomed Girls") grabbed a nomination. And the big winner . . . La Pickler . . . She grabbed up 3 CMT awards! Ms. Underwood grabbed one award to also represent for Idol.

A big holla for La Pickler. . .

However, my clip pimpage goes to one Mr. Bucky Covincton . . . I don't know bout Rubbertoe and TtownIdolFan, but Allison, K&L, and myself very much HEARTED this performance! Enjoy!

Top 8 Results: Um . . . EXCUSE ME!

So, I couldn't do a live blog because Idol came on at 7pm . . . when it always comes on at 8pm . . . UGH!

Anyhoo, I came in when Ms. Sparks was getting her platinum record! Hooray for Jordan! I am very happy for her! Ttown Idol Fan said that she and Chris Brown sounded really good!

When I arrived, Lil David, Rocker David, and The Brooke were sitting on the Couch of Glory!

Up next, The Cuteness and a recap of his little ukulele . . . sooooooo cute! And, of course, he is safe.

Next up, The Comeback Kid (KLC). . . Ryan toys with her a little bit, but she looks confident . . . no "Kristy's Seat" note tonight. As she should be, The Comeback Kid is SAFE!

That leaves The Hotness, Carly, and The Breaker of the Cardinal Rule in the Bottom Three. Carly immediately raises her hand when Ryan teases the commercial with the question "Who has the lowest number of votes?" Not a lot of confidence in tattoo land . . .

Let's skip to the meat . . . Randy thinks that America doesn't really have it right . . and neither does Paula. Simon thinks that he and America are finally seeing eye to eye.

Ryan says that after the nationwide vote, Syesha and Carly are safe . . . um, clearly listening to my ipod for eleventy hours per day has tainted my hearing . . . surely that did not just happen. Ryan tells us that The Hotness has the lowest number of votes . . . But wait, now La Seacrest is reminding us that last year on Idol Gives Back that no one was sent home . . . but this year . . . The Hotness has been eliminated.

Let me just say, I was watching the results with TtownIdolFan, and he was so mad that he turned off the television and slammed the remote down. I cannot possibly express just how cruel La Seacrest was with the teaser that The Hotness could be safe. It was unnecessary! It was just down right mean! Did he wake up on the wrong side of the bed? Did his flat iron have a short? Did he stumble into some unflattering light? What could have possible prompted him to be like that. I realize I shouldn't be so quick to criticize Ms. Seacrest . . . she was probably just reading the script as she was directed, but, I gotta tell ya, it was pretty damned awful.

Hrrrmph! That sucks! The Hotness should have been good on into the Top 5. I'm not happy with America.

Like Allison's sister, LT, I am bitter.

Very, very bitter.

Birthday Post!

This is a post for Lisa, today is her birthday! She requested a flashback to Bo Bice, so here is one of my favorite performances from his season.

Idol Rewind: What did the Idols Sing Last Year for Idol Gives Back?

So, I went a searchin on the internets to see if I could find what the AI6 Idols sang for Idol Gives Back Week. One of the posters over at Idol Forum posted this list.

Blake Lewis - "Imagine"
Chris Richardson - "If I Could Change The World"
Jordin Sparks - "You'll Never Walk Alone"
Lakisha Jones - "I Believe"
Melinda Doolittle - "There Will Come A Day"
Phil Stacey - "The Change"


Also, in that post, they noted that the theme was "Inspirational Songs (Life Anthems). I'm gonna post a little later about what I hope/think the AI7 Idols will sing. What do y'all think?

EW's 10 Worst Performances EVAH!

Hey Guys,
we thought it might be fun to share the link above with you, where EW posts clips of performances past that make this year's top 9 sound like little Mariahs, Whitneys and Celines :)

Another former idol performer slated for Wednesday

The folks over at mjsbigblog are reporting that the Pickler herself will be performing a song from her new CD on Wednesday night's results show. I have to say that considering that during AI 4, I would have rather STUCK HOT POKERS IN BOTH OF MY EYES than watch Kelli Pickler, the girl has actually done quite well for herself. Hope it goes well!
