Something rare is happening on American Idol. Two weeks ago, Skylar Laine and Hollie Cavanagh stood in the bottom three alongside Heejun Han. And Heejun went home, despite entering the finals on a wave of popularity, even if it had more to do with his sense of humor than his singing ability. This week, Elise…
Kelly Clarkson’s smash single “Stronger” continues to be the bright spot on the Billboard music charts among former Idols. The song is at the top of three charts this week — pop, radio and adult pop.

If Ryan Seacrest ever leaves American Idol as his role on NBC increases, we saw a potential replacement Thursday night. Her name: Kellie Pickler. Don’t laugh. I’d vote to see Kellie in the role of Idol host in a Nashville heartbeat. Think about it. She’s one of the biggest personalities to ever hit the Idol…
Hey, look, the producers of American Idol listened.
