Normally, this would not be too big of an issue since American Idol has a delay built in specifically for Steven Tyler and anyone else who may decide to swear or say something objectionable during the live broadcast of American Idol. For some reason, the producers of the April 20th edition of American Idol managed to miss Steven Tyler Swearing live on American Idol. I guess they also moonlight as nighttime Air traffic controllers during their off time.<br /><br />During Steven Tylers critique of Casey Abrams's rendition of 'Harder To Breathe' by Maroon 5, Steven Tyler emphatically stated <blockquote>"There are millions of people in America that are really angry because you piss them off because you are f**king good" </blockquote> The network quickly went to commercial and when the show came back Steven Tyler was sitting at the judges' table with a piece of duct tape across his mouth. American Idol Judge Randy Jackson joked, "We had to silence him just for a second." Steven Tyler then removed the tape, stating "You can't keep me quiet!"<br /><br />Whatever the case, Steven Tylers F-word moment went out live on the East coast and is sure to hit youtube until it gets censored out. For that reason, we will be including video of the uncensored American Idol episode where Steven Tyler swears and says the f-word live on American Idol. Why? well because all the teenagers who watch American Idol get all giddy when someone says "fvck" come on people, it is just a word that starts with an "f" and ends with a "K" Kinda like Frank, except with one less letter.<br /><br />The big issue now is what the FCC will end up doing to FOX network, Fremantlemedia, and Steven Tyler. Remember the ever popular superbowl "wardwrobe malfunction" aka "Nip-slip" of a few years back when Janet Jackson showed the world her nipple? Well, that little publicity stunt ended up costing Jackson a fair chunk of change and the FCC is sure not going to let the Steven Tyler prime time swearing incident from American Idol slip under the radar.<br /><br />So what are your thoughts? Is it really that big of a deal that Steven Tyler swore on American Idol last night? Do you think the Producers of American Idol specifically hired Steven Tyler in a big plan to have him say the "f-word", ah Fvck it, the word is fvck? Or do you think, maybe, just maybe, Steven Tyler is an FCC plant just to increase department revenues?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6657337299518702415-5968321970749697400?l=american-idol--results.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>HTBWnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6657337299518702415.post-44763810097949983902010-04-11T10:42:00.000-07:002010-10-14T20:05:50.130-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_CvXEhdXFheY/S8ILgBKs99I/AAAAAAAAJi8/vTPwmwwRXi0/s1600/ADAM+LAMBERT+AMERICAN+IDOL+TOP+10+TOUR+pictures+7.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:left;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_CvXEhdXFheY/S8ILgBKs99I/AAAAAAAAJi8/vTPwmwwRXi0/s400/ADAM+LAMBERT+AMERICAN+IDOL+TOP+10+TOUR+pictures+7.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5458938343023507410" /></a>It puzzles me how millions of teenaged girls are swooning over American Idol Adam Lambert and searching for picture of American Idol Adam Lambert...

In addition to going through annual contract negotiations with American Idol Producers, American Idol Judge Paula Abdul hired a new manager in David Sonenberg. With her new management in tow, Paula Abdul reportedly demanded $20 million from the American Idol producers to stay on as an American Idol Judge, but her manager David Sonenberg recently said, "Very sadly, it does not appear that she's going to be back on Idol." <br /><!-- Begin: AdBrite, Generated: 2008-09-11 10:16:17 --> <br /><script type="text/javascript"><br />var AdBrite_Title_Color = '6C82B5';<br />var AdBrite_Text_Color = 'FFFFFF';<br />var AdBrite_Background_Color = '32527A';<br />var AdBrite_Border_Color = '32527A';<br />var AdBrite_URL_Color = '6C82B5';<br />try{var AdBrite_Iframe=window.top!=window.self?2:1;var AdBrite_Referrer=document.referrer==''?document.location:document.referrer;AdBrite_Referrer=encodeURIComponent(AdBrite_Referrer);}catch(e){var AdBrite_Iframe='';var AdBrite_Referrer='';}<br /></script><br /><script type="text/javascript">document.write(String.fromCharCode(60,83,67,82,73,80,84));document.write(' src="http://ads.adbrite.com/mb/text_group.php?sid=840306&zs=3330305f323530&ifr='+AdBrite_Iframe+'&ref='+AdBrite_Referrer+'" type="text/javascript">');document.write(String.fromCharCode(60,47,83,67,82,73,80,84,62));</script><br /><div><a target="_top" href="" style="font-weight:bold;font-family:Arial;font-size:13px;">Paula Abdul Manager - David Sonenberg</a></div><br /><!-- End: AdBrite --><br />Since David Sonenberg's announcement on the possible fate of American Idol Judge Paula Abdul, Fans of Paula Abdul launched several campaign's in support of keeping Paula Abdul on American Idol.

Displaying a little ego, Paula Abdul's line "being a part of a show that I helped from day1become an international phenomenon" is an obvious indication of some unresolved conflict or discontent over an apparent producer lack of appreciation of Paula Abdul's contribution towards Americian Idol.<br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Paula Abdul's Twitter post on Leaving American Idol</span></span><br /><blockquote>"With sadness in my heart, I've decided not to return to #IDOL.

Insider reports, however, indicate Paula Abdul rejected an eight-figure deal from American Idol producers, which in essence represented a 30 percent raise. Whatever the case, as it sites now, the American Idol Judge team for Season 9 of American Idol consists of Randy Jackson, Kara DioGuardi and Simon Cowell. It is unclear if American Idol producers will bring on another female judge to replace Paula Abdul or if they will be going back to the 3 judge formula.

Perhaps it was <strong>ADAM LAMBERT's TRANSEXUAL KISS </strong>expolits or the over reliance on theatrics. Maybe America stepped up and said they would rather have a "wholesome" AMERICAN IDOL KRIS ALLEN over a sexually unsure ADAM LAMBERT.

Aside from that, staying power is not on the side of AMERICAN IDOL winners who must both battle and embrace the fame and expectations tossed upon them after winning the AMERICAN IDOL top spot.<br /><br />This season's consensus favourites are Lambert and 29-year-old church music director Danny Gokey, but Clarkson's choice is a more unlikely pick: just-turned-17 long shot, Allison Iraheta.<br /><br /><br />Iraheta is the only woman left in the competition. More important, she has a preternaturally mature voice and an old-soul vibe - more rock queen than pop princess. Clarkson has said the key to performing well on Idol is staying determined, being authentic and refusing to compromise, even when the popular winds seem to be blowing the other way. And Iraheta is by far the most unique, uncompromising singer of the final four, even as Gokey and Lambert appear destined to go all the way to the end.<br /><br /><br />The season's other contender is 23-year-old Conway, Ark., gospel singer Kris Allen.<br /><br /><br /><strong>ADAM LAMBERT</strong> is still the overwhelming favourite to win - his landing in the bottom two this week was likely a one-time anomaly. His talent for working the crowd, his Freddie Mercury-tinged vocal stylings and his canny song selection - Johnny Cash, Tears for Fears, Queen, Steppenwolf - give him the edge.<br /><!-- Begin: AdBrite, Generated: 2008-09-11 10:16:17 --> <br /><script type="text/javascript"><br />var AdBrite_Title_Color = '6C82B5';<br />var AdBrite_Text_Color = 'FFFFFF';<br />var AdBrite_Background_Color = '32527A';<br />var AdBrite_Border_Color = '32527A';<br />var AdBrite_URL_Color = '6C82B5';<br />try{var AdBrite_Iframe=window.top!=window.self?2:1;var AdBrite_Referrer=document.referrer==''?document.location:document.referrer;AdBrite_Referrer=encodeURIComponent(AdBrite_Referrer);}catch(e){var AdBrite_Iframe='';var AdBrite_Referrer='';}<br /></script><br /><script type="text/javascript">document.write(String.fromCharCode(60,83,67,82,73,80,84));document.write(' src="http://ads.adbrite.com/mb/text_group.php?sid=840306&zs=3330305f323530&ifr='+AdBrite_Iframe+'&ref='+AdBrite_Referrer+'" type="text/javascript">');document.write(String.fromCharCode(60,47,83,67,82,73,80,84,62));</script><br /><div><a target="_top" href="http://www.adbrite.com/mb/commerce/purchase_form.php?opid=840306&afsid=1" style="font-weight:bold;font-family:Arial;font-size:13px;">Your Ad Here</a></div><br /><!-- End: AdBrite --><br /><br /><br />Iraheta has a shot, however.

Gokey said he wanted to try out for Idol, "to find new hope."<br /><br />A devout evangelical Christian, <strong>DANNY GOKEY</strong> has said he wants to tap the mainstream music audience rather than focus on contemporary Christian music. He cites Brian McKnight, Kirk Franklin and Lauryn Hill as musical influences, though his Idol song list has ranged from Marvin Gaye and Rascal Flatts to The Temptations and Earth, Wind and Fire.<br /><br />Of <strong>DANNY GOKEY</strong>'s Rat Pack night performance of Harold Arlen and Johnny Mercer's Come Rain or Come Shine, Randy Jackson said, "This is a singing competition and, dude, you can sing."<br /><br /><strong>DANNY GOKEY</strong> has said that if he doesn't win AMERICAN IDOL, he will continue to sing and record his own music. He has established a heart-disease foundation in his wife's name, and has vowed to use his music to support the foundation, "to help people."<br /><br /><br /><strong>KRIS ALLEN</strong> , 23<br /><br />Hometown: Conway, Ark.<br /><br />Odds of winning: 5-1.<br /><br /><strong>KRIS ALLEN</strong> is the pure musician in this Idol group. In addition to being an accomplished singer, in Idol terms, <strong>KRIS ALLEN</strong>is also proficient with the guitar, piano, viola and ukulele. Like Gokey, <strong>KRIS ALLEN</strong> is a devout evangelical Christian. Like Gokey, he, too, wants his music to touch a mainstream audience.<br /><br /><strong>KRIS ALLEN</strong>'s song list on Idol has ranged from Leon Russell and Michael Jackson to, interestingly, Michael Buble and Marvin Gaye. After <strong>KRIS ALLEN</strong>'s performance last month of Bob Dylan's To Make You Feel My Love (the song became a hit for Garth Brooks), Cowell told him, "I am genuinely beginning to think you have a shot of (winning) this competition."<br /><br />By Rat Pack night, though, Cowell had changed his tune somewhat, calling Allen's subdued performance of Jerome Kern's The Way You Look Tonight "a little wet."<br /><br />"It's like taking a well-trained spaniel for a walk," Cowell said. "I don't get the feeling from you tonight that you can win this competition."<br /><br />If he doesn't win Idol, <strong>KRIS ALLEN</strong> has said he will stick with his music and do as best he can.<br /><br /><br /><strong>ALLISON IRAHETA</strong>, 17<br /><br />Hometown: Los Angeles<br /><br />Odds of winning: 10-1<br /><br /><strong>ALLISON IRAHETA</strong> is the Cinderella story in this year's group. She turned just 17 the day before Rat Pack night, but her growly, old-soul rocker's voice and stage presence belie her young age. Kelly Clarkson and Reba McEntire have both cited Iraheta, who's of El Salvadoran descent, as their favourite singer in this year's group.<br /><br />"You sing like Pink, but with nine thousand more octaves," Randy Jackson told Iraheta after her performance of George and Ira Gershwin's Someone to Watch Over Me.<br /><br />That was telling, because <strong>ALLISON IRAHETA</strong> has cited Pink as one of her musical influences, along with Beck, Katy Perry, Mariah Carey and Heart.<br /><br /><strong>ALLISON IRAHETA</strong>'s not new to TV singing competitions: In 2006, at age 14, she won the Telemundo talent search Quinceanera, earning $60,000 and a recording contract.<br /><br /><strong>ALLISON IRAHETA</strong>'s Idol song list has ranged from Heart, Patty Loveless and The Temptations, to Bonnie Raitt, Aretha Franklin and, improbably, Aerosmith.<br /><br />Music has helped her grow and become a better person, she said on her Idol blog, adding Cowell is her favourite judge. ("Who doesn't love Simon? He's fun!") She has vowed she will keep on singing, even if she doesn't win.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6657337299518702415-7480072811049651443?l=american-idol--results.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>HTBWnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6657337299518702415.post-79210007650412874372009-04-30T20:07:00.000-07:002009-04-30T20:23:47.207-07:00<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_CvXEhdXFheY/Sfpq1Tzu5sI/AAAAAAAAH6M/SQz-fRiyVMs/s1600-h/ADAM+LAMBERT+GAY+BI+SEXUAL+KISSING+GUY+MAN+GIRL+WOMEN+FRENCH+KISSING+AMERICAN+IDOL+3.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 369px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_CvXEhdXFheY/Sfpq1Tzu5sI/AAAAAAAAH6M/SQz-fRiyVMs/s400/ADAM+LAMBERT+GAY+BI+SEXUAL+KISSING+GUY+MAN+GIRL+WOMEN+FRENCH+KISSING+AMERICAN+IDOL+3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330690573029271234" /></a>A recent rumour which has outed AMERICAN IDOL TOP CONTESTANT ADAM LAMBERT as GAY has the cyber world buzzing.

All but 16-year-old Allison Iraheta were born in the 1980s. <br /><br />Lambert performed a haunting rendition of the 1982 song "Mad World" by Tears for Fears, though the version he sang was more like composer Michael Andrews' interpretation recorded for the soundtrack for the film "Donnie Darko." <br /><!-- Begin: AdBrite, Generated: 2008-09-11 10:14:43 --> <br /><script type="text/javascript"><br />var AdBrite_Title_Color = '6C82B5';<br />var AdBrite_Text_Color = 'FFFFFF';<br />var AdBrite_Background_Color = '32527A';<br />var AdBrite_Border_Color = '32527A';<br />var AdBrite_URL_Color = '6C82B5';<br />try{var AdBrite_Iframe=window.top!=window.self?2:1;var AdBrite_Referrer=document.referrer==''?document.location:document.referrer;AdBrite_Referrer=encodeURIComponent(AdBrite_Referrer);}catch(e){var AdBrite_Iframe='';var AdBrite_Referrer='';}<br /></script><br /><script type="text/javascript">document.write(String.fromCharCode(60,83,67,82,73,80,84));document.write(' src="http://ads.adbrite.com/mb/text_group.php?sid=840302&zs=3330305f323530&ifr='+AdBrite_Iframe+'&ref='+AdBrite_Referrer+'" type="text/javascript">');document.write(String.fromCharCode(60,47,83,67,82,73,80,84,62));</script><br /><div><a target="_top" href="http://www.adbrite.com/mb/commerce/purchase_form.php?opid=840302&afsid=1" style="font-weight:bold;font-family:Arial;font-size:13px;">Your Ad Here</a></div><br /><!-- End: AdBrite --><br /><br />That version is also featured in a commerical for the video game "Gears of War."

Six hours later, Tack emerged with a blend of the two songs that was seamless, combining Travis' low-register vocals to Underwood's higher voice on the chorus. <br /><br />The song was an instant hit on the station when it debuted on January 14, and when country music consultant Jaye Albright got her hands on it, she sent it out to 75 other stations she works with. "After I put it together in the studio, within five seconds I thought, 'This is going to be something special,' " said the Iowa-born Tack, whose identical-twin brother, Joey Tack, is a hip-hop radio DJ in Tennessee. <br /><br />The phones at 'UBE lit up instantly. Tack said he began getting calls from all over the country every night from listeners and DJs praising his work and asking for copies. To date, the YouTube video he created has gotten nearly 100,000 views, but the biggest compliment was when Tack found out the country superstars would be performing the song on "Idol" and had recorded an official version. <br /><!-- Begin: AdBrite, Generated: 2008-09-11 10:16:17 --> <br /><script type="text/javascript"><br />var AdBrite_Title_Color = '6C82B5';<br />var AdBrite_Text_Color = 'FFFFFF';<br />var AdBrite_Background_Color = '32527A';<br />var AdBrite_Border_Color = '32527A';<br />var AdBrite_URL_Color = '6C82B5';<br />try{var AdBrite_Iframe=window.top!=window.self?2:1;var AdBrite_Referrer=document.referrer==''?document.location:document.referrer;AdBrite_Referrer=encodeURIComponent(AdBrite_Referrer);}catch(e){var AdBrite_Iframe='';var AdBrite_Referrer='';}<br /></script><br /><script type="text/javascript">document.write(String.fromCharCode(60,83,67,82,73,80,84));document.write(' src="http://ads.adbrite.com/mb/text_group.php?sid=840306&zs=3330305f323530&ifr='+AdBrite_Iframe+'&ref='+AdBrite_Referrer+'" type="text/javascript">');document.write(String.fromCharCode(60,47,83,67,82,73,80,84,62));</script><br /><div><a target="_top" href="http://www.adbrite.com/mb/commerce/purchase_form.php?opid=840306&afsid=1" style="font-weight:bold;font-family:Arial;font-size:13px;">Your Ad Here</a></div><br /><!-- End: AdBrite --><br /><br />He hasn't heard from either artist so far about his grassroots experiment, but Tack can't help but feel like he helped get the ball rolling.

One of the show's staffer's reportedly has gone around telling anyone she can of who is to be entering despite the singing of the final 13 to begin.<br /><br />According to NY Daily News, "One of the hit show's staffers is running around telling anyone who'll listen that the team of producers and judges has already picked the final four contestants — despite the fact that 11 kids are still battling to be the latest pop star."<br /><br />So who are the final four you ask? The female American Idol staffer is proclaiming it will be Danny Gokey, Lil Rounds, Adam Lambert, and Alexis Grace according to NY Daily News. The female staffer said that those contestants WILL be the people in the final four. FOX has yet to comment and people are pretty upset right now.

First there was the whole regional voting which brought certain talentless hicks to the top, purely based on their geographic location. After that there was rumours of race based voting and now we have autodialer voting programs.<br /><br />These programs use your computers modem to automatically dial a certain idol number and vote for that idol. The program also logs all the dialing attempts and reports them back to their server. At this point, fans of Danny Gokey seem to be the ones using the program the most.

The eight contestants who got a lifeline from the judges at the end of Wednesday night's show thought they were fighting for the final three spots in the top 12, but in a surprise reveal at the end of last night's show they found out that for the first time in "Idol" history the top 12 would actually be a top 13. <br /><br />That was good news for Jasmine Murray, Megan Joy Corkrey, Matt Giraud and Anoop Desai, all of whom got to take a seat after performing one more time for the <strong>AMERICAN IDOL</strong> judges, who said that the choice between Giraud and Desai was so hard that they just went with both. <br /><br />The four <strong>AMERICAN IDOL WILD-CARD</strong> picks join the nine audience-chosen finalists — <strong>Danny Gokey</strong>, <strong>Alexis Grace</strong>, <strong>Michael Sarver</strong>, <strong>Kris Allen</strong>, <strong>Allison Iraheta</strong>, <strong>Adam Lambert</strong>, <strong>Scott MacIntyre</strong>, <strong>Jorge Nuñez</strong> and <strong>Lil Rounds</strong> — when the finals begin next week, with shows that will feature guest spots from Kanye West and season-one <strong>AMERICAN IDOL</strong> superstar Kelly Clarkson. <br /><!-- Begin: AdBrite, Generated: 2008-09-11 10:14:43 --> <br /><script type="text/javascript"><br />var AdBrite_Title_Color = '6C82B5';<br />var AdBrite_Text_Color = 'FFFFFF';<br />var AdBrite_Background_Color = '32527A';<br />var AdBrite_Border_Color = '32527A';<br />var AdBrite_URL_Color = '6C82B5';<br />try{var AdBrite_Iframe=window.top!=window.self?2:1;var AdBrite_Referrer=document.referrer==''?document.location:document.referrer;AdBrite_Referrer=encodeURIComponent(AdBrite_Referrer);}catch(e){var AdBrite_Iframe='';var AdBrite_Referrer='';}<br /></script><br /><script type="text/javascript">document.write(String.fromCharCode(60,83,67,82,73,80,84));document.write(' src="http://ads.adbrite.com/mb/text_group.php?sid=840302&zs=3330305f323530&ifr='+AdBrite_Iframe+'&ref='+AdBrite_Referrer+'" type="text/javascript">');document.write(String.fromCharCode(60,47,83,67,82,73,80,84,62));</script><br /><div><a target="_top" href="http://www.adbrite.com/mb/commerce/purchase_form.php?opid=840302&afsid=1" style="font-weight:bold;font-family:Arial;font-size:13px;">Your Ad Here</a></div><br /><!-- End: AdBrite --><br /><br />Before the <strong>AMERICAN IDOL</strong> judges made their decision, they put all the singers through the wringer one more time. First up was Minnesotan <strong>Jesse Langseth</strong>, who sang Rufus and Chaka Khan's funk classic, "Tell Me Something Good," while wearing a dangerously short, shiny black mini-dress and giving the sexy tune a slow grind feel that split the judges. <br /><br /><strong>Kara DioGuardi </strong>liked her "swagger," and<strong> Paula Abdul </strong>was impressed with her tenacity and determination. But <strong>Simon Cowell</strong> thought it was a bit indulgent, even if he was glad the panel had made the last-second choice to giver her another shot. <br /><br />Dueling-piano player Giraud knew he had to bring the blues, so he chose the Jackson 5 version of Smokey Robinson's "Who's Lovin' You," rocking a fedora and pouring all his blue-eyed soul into the tune while throwing in a spin and some gospel adlibs. Kara loved the bluesy, soulful return of the singer they fell in love with. Paula said Giraud picked the perfect song. Simon called it "a billion times better" than Giraud's last performance, but not before turning the dagger a bit and trashing Giraud's outfit and resemblance to gray-haired season five "Idol" winner Taylor Hicks. <br /><br />Utah's <strong>MEGAN CORKREY </strong>picked a jammer, "Black Horse & the Cherry Tree" by KT Tunstall, again busting out her signature hip-swiveling dance and throwing some jazz grit into the acoustic pop tune. The judge's were unanimous in their love for the model-pretty tattooed mom, and all agreed that <strong>MEGAN CORKREY </strong>has the contemporary look and sound the karaoke show desperately needs. <br /><br /><strong>Von Smith</strong>, 22, who was eliminated just 24 hours earlier, picked the Elton John weeper "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word," leaning hard on his feathery falsetto but still looking a bit nervous as he stared intently into the camera. Simon said it was boring and ordinary. Kara said he got too serious and dark, sealing his fate once again. <br /><!-- Begin: AdBrite, Generated: 2008-09-11 10:16:17 --> <br /><script type="text/javascript"><br />var AdBrite_Title_Color = '6C82B5';<br />var AdBrite_Text_Color = 'FFFFFF';<br />var AdBrite_Background_Color = '32527A';<br />var AdBrite_Border_Color = '32527A';<br />var AdBrite_URL_Color = '6C82B5';<br />try{var AdBrite_Iframe=window.top!=window.self?2:1;var AdBrite_Referrer=document.referrer==''?document.location:document.referrer;AdBrite_Referrer=encodeURIComponent(AdBrite_Referrer);}catch(e){var AdBrite_Iframe='';var AdBrite_Referrer='';}<br /></script><br /><script type="text/javascript">document.write(String.fromCharCode(60,83,67,82,73,80,84));document.write(' src="http://ads.adbrite.com/mb/text_group.php?sid=840306&zs=3330305f323530&ifr='+AdBrite_Iframe+'&ref='+AdBrite_Referrer+'" type="text/javascript">');document.write(String.fromCharCode(60,47,83,67,82,73,80,84,62));</script><br /><div><a target="_top" href="http://www.adbrite.com/mb/commerce/purchase_form.php?opid=840306&afsid=1" style="font-weight:bold;font-family:Arial;font-size:13px;">Your Ad Here</a></div><br /><!-- End: AdBrite --><br /><br />Another <strong>AMERICAN IDOL</strong> judge favorite, 16-year-old Murray, went the big ballad route, taking on Christina Aguilera's "Reflection" with a powerful, soaring vocal that showed her confidence and range. It paid off in a big way, as Simon gushed about her "brave" choice of song, and Kara marveled at the "really big voice" she'd never noticed before. <br /><br />It's been a few weeks since we saw Ricky Braddy, but the 26-year-old North Carolina native gave it another shot by biting into Steve Wonder's "Superstition." The latest male "Idol" to rock a somewhat lame faux-hawk, he wore skin-tight black jeans, a white shirt, black tie and gray vest, as he bounced all over the stage. His vocals also jumped all over the place. The judges all praised his energy and personality, but Simon said that in the end, it was all a bit "clumsy" and karaoke. <br /><!-- Begin: AdBrite, Generated: 2008-09-11 10:16:17 --> <br /><script type="text/javascript"><br />var AdBrite_Title_Color = '6C82B5';<br />var AdBrite_Text_Color = 'FFFFFF';<br />var AdBrite_Background_Color = '32527A';<br />var AdBrite_Border_Color = '32527A';<br />var AdBrite_URL_Color = '6C82B5';<br />try{var AdBrite_Iframe=window.top!=window.self?2:1;var AdBrite_Referrer=document.referrer==''?document.location:document.referrer;AdBrite_Referrer=encodeURIComponent(AdBrite_Referrer);}catch(e){var AdBrite_Iframe='';var AdBrite_Referrer='';}<br /></script><br /><script type="text/javascript">document.write(String.fromCharCode(60,83,67,82,73,80,84));document.write(' src="http://ads.adbrite.com/mb/text_group.php?sid=840306&zs=3330305f323530&ifr='+AdBrite_Iframe+'&ref='+AdBrite_Referrer+'" type="text/javascript">');document.write(String.fromCharCode(60,47,83,67,82,73,80,84,62));</script><br /><div><a target="_top" href="http://www.adbrite.com/mb/commerce/purchase_form.php?opid=840306&afsid=1" style="font-weight:bold;font-family:Arial;font-size:13px;">Your Ad Here</a></div><br /><!-- End: AdBrite --><br /><br />One of this season's most controversial <strong>AMERICAN IDOL</strong> contestants, Tatiana Del Toro, 24, the Puerto Rican weeper who all of a sudden developed a much thicker accent Thursday night, again chose the fittingly dramatic warhorse, Whitney Houston's "Saving All My Love for You." Wearing a shimmering black-and-silver cocktail dress, Del Toro came out a bit tentative at first but got stronger as the tune went on and proved, despite all the distractions, why she was back in the competition. <br /><br />The <strong>AMERICAN IDOL</strong> judge's questioned the sudden accent — Del Toro said it creeps back when she's "emotional" — as well as her decision to sing the same song for the second time in a row. That led to a tense, loopy back-and-forth with Simon about song choice that likely sealed the judge's decision. <br /><br />Up last was Chapel Hill, North Carolina's Desai, who was out to prove that "Noop Dogg" was back by busting out Bobby Brown's "My Prerogative." He worked the mike, popped his collar, brought some serious attitude and got the crowd on their feet, even if his vocals were a bit shaky and the backup singers ended up doing too much heavy lifting. Simon compared him to "an enthusiastic dog." The judge also said that while he wasn't the best singer, people clearly liked him, and he might offer the cast of the show some personality. (Has Simon ever referred to the singers as "the cast" before?) <br /><br />Kara said he made her want to dance, and she's not one to dance. Paula actually did get up and dance during his performance, which she loved. When the judges told Desai he was through, he covered his face in shock, then gave a shout out to his college town of Chapel Hill, which was in the news because of a memorial service for University of North Carolina Student Body President Eve Carson, who was murdered a year ago Thursday. <br /><br /><strong>AMERICAN IDOL</strong> settles into a regular schedule next Tuesday, when the top 13 perform during a two-hour show. They face elimination the next night (March 11), when Clarkson will sing her new hit, "My Life Would Suck Without You" and West will perform "Heartless."<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6657337299518702415-4430732737775307886?l=american-idol--results.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>HTBWnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6657337299518702415.post-67519547505737839492009-02-04T22:40:00.000-08:002009-02-04T23:15:11.554-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://holamamasita.blogspot.com/2009/01/megan-corkney-american-idol-milf.html"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_CvXEhdXFheY/SYqQtYMzk0I/AAAAAAAAGW8/JoMKm6vZpg0/s320/MEGAN+CORKREY+AMERICAN+IDOL+SEASON+8.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299207020819485506" /></a><br />OK, so I have to admit I am a fan of Hot MILF contestant <a href="http://holamamasita.blogspot.com/2009/01/megan-corkney-american-idol-milf.html">MEGAN CORKREY</a> as are quite a number of AMERICAN IDOL VIEWERS, judging by the webstats.

The producers of "Idol" apologized Thursday on behalf of its judges, who apparently misinterpreted what a contestant in Louisville, Ky., said after a failed audition.<br /><br />On his way out, Mark Mudd said: "Take care and be careful." Paula Abdul and Simon Cowell took that as a threat. Abdul scolded Mudd, telling him: "You don't say that to people, 'Be careful.' That's just not a normal thing to say."<br /><br />It turns out "Be careful" is a regional parting expression. American Idol's producers say they had not heard that from any other contestants, so it took everyone by surprise.

I cannot have any private or professional life without her infiltrating it,'' Ms DeGarmo said in a statement. <br /><br />"No matter what I do I cannot get away from her. She is still to this day stealing my online identity and harassing my friends, family and myself,'' she said. <br /><br />The court heard Ms Quattrocchi allegedly sent emails stating the singer wanted to have sex with her brother, loved older men and was a lesbian. <br /><br />"Diana is a lesbian whore. I don’t want her small hands touching me. I love guys and have sex with them,’’ Ms Quattrochi wrote to the singer’s sister-in-law. <br /><br />Ms Quattrocchi was released on bail under the condition she not use any computer or device that allows internet or email access and not communicate in any way with Ms DeGarmo. <br /><br />She must now appear at the County Court in January 2009.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6657337299518702415-2099742117646108322?l=american-idol--results.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>HTBWnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6657337299518702415.post-7912556512886623652008-10-06T07:58:00.001-07:002008-10-06T08:00:17.081-07:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_CvXEhdXFheY/SOonyrf8boI/AAAAAAAAEdo/0DNgIPfggB0/s1600-h/lakisha+jones+wedding.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_CvXEhdXFheY/SOonyrf8boI/AAAAAAAAEdo/0DNgIPfggB0/s400/lakisha+jones+wedding.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5254055666904755842" /></a>Former "American Idol" contestant LaKisha Jones has tied the knot.
