Recap: Wow. A woman can win a show like this. Talent can prevail. After a season full of missteps, after becoming a mega-miss instead of a mega-hit, The X Factor got the most important thing right. Or at least fans did, crowning diva-voiced Melanie Amaro as the show’s first winner Thursday night. She was one…
Recap: So, for the first hour and 15 minutes of tonight’s hour-and-a-half X Factor, the only thing that made me smile was a Walgreens commercial where a busy mom holiday shopping with her kids creates her own parking space. Then Melanie Amaro showed up on stage for her final performance, slew “Listen,” hit notes the…
He might not have won Season 8 of American Idol, but Adam Lambert was that year’s undisputed star. And he released a new single — “Better Than I Know Myself” — today. You can hear it below. At one point, Adam had hoped to release his second album in 2011. After all, we’re more than…
We won’t be hearing new music from David Archuleta over the next two years. But it’s for a good reason. Last night, during a hometown concert in Salt Lake, Utah, on his “My Kind of Christmas” tour, David announced that he’s going on a full-time mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints….
And then there were three. Three X Factor contestants still in the running for a fat $5 million prize and the chance to appear in a Pepsi commercial. Though I’m a little baffled by the latter. When you have an adorable commercial starring Sofia Vergara and David Beckham, why would you want a new one…
The X Factor wraps up it’s first season this week with a performance show Wednesday (8 to 9:30 p.m.) and a two-hour grand finale on Thursday (8 to 10 p.m.). And, honestly, this mess can’t end soon enough. Recognizing Simon Cowell’s contribution to making American Idol a mega-hit, I was looking forward to the debut…
Listen back to the judges’ comments last night and you’ll find that … * The judges pretty much told Josh Krajcik he earned a spot in the finals. * The judges told Melanie Amaro the finals would seem empty without her, as well they would. * The judges told Chris Rene he should be in the…
The X Factor is down to a final four, and tonight we finally get to hear those Pepsi choice songs viewers helped pick. You know, the ones we were supposed to hear last week before some glitch forced the contestants to sing their save-me songs instead. And, we’ll find out if the show will continue…
Maybe I’ve been watching American Idol play favorites with contestants for so long that I see conspiracies where they don’t expect. But I suspect last week marked just the beginning of X Factor pushing Chris Rene as a contestant worthy of a spot in the finals, and perhaps alongside Melanie Amaro when and if the…
Luck of the Draw
