What viewers think of the new American Idol judges
So, I just collected a bunch of comments on Twitter about the new Idol judges. Gotta say, some people love Nicki. Some hate her. Same with Mariah. Anyway, here it is.

OK, episode one of Season 12 is in the books. We’ve seen the judges in action. We’ve met some contestants. So, in true Idol Chatter fashion, let’s dole out some grades.
Angela Miller, an 18-year-old from Boston, was one of six female singers we met on Wednesday’s episode of Idol who made it to Hollywood. She auditioned with “Mama Knows Best” by Jessie J and got a yes from all four judges. For the live blog, head here.
We met Sarah Restuccio on Wednesday’s episode of Idol. She’s the gal who sang “Mama’s Song” by Carrie Underwood, then followed it up by rapping “Super Bass” by Nicki Minaj.
Tenna Torres, 28, of Queens, N.Y., was featured on Wednesday’s audition episode of American Idol. Last year, she made it all the way to the Las Vegas round before being cut.

Jason Castro released “Only a Mountain,” his new Christian CD, on Tuesday. I’ll post a mini review later this week. In the meantime, here are live versions of my three favorite songs from the album.

Since Monday morning, Lee DeWyze has been tweeting about great news he was going to announce today. The news: He’s signed with Vanguard Records and expects to have an album and single out soon.
Phillip Phillips announced today that his debut album has gone gold. That signifies 500,000 copies sold of “The World from the Other Side of the Moon” in about seven weeks.
