By MARK FRANKLIN American Idols go for four straight Sunday night in downtown Los Angeles. That’s four straight years in which a former American Idol contestant has walked away with a Grammy. Kelly Clarkson started the streak back in 2005; Carrie Underwood extended it each of the last two years. This year, four Idols are…
Trivia question: Chris Daughtry was among the season five contestants. Which of his fellow season five contestants received a Grammy nomination for helping write Daughtry’s single “It’s Not Over.” By MARK FRANKLIN Idol flashback time again. We’re up to season five runnerup Katharine McPhee. Two years after her Idol run, Kat still looks Idol-licious ……
By MARK FRANKLIN Way to go, American Idol. Hollywood Week episode two was thoroughly entertaining. Team Compromise. Team Tatiana. Team Diva. The intrigue. The drama. The backstabbing. And the tears. More tears than Ramiele Malubay and Brooke White shed in all of last year’s episodes put together. And that, folks, is a helluva feat. I…
By MARK FRANKLIN I guess they call that entertainment. How else can you explain the fact that the American Idol judges didn’t cut Nick Mitchell, aka Norman Gentile, in Tuesday’s episode? I mean, the guy acts like a clown every time he’s in front of a camera. And how else can you explain the inordinate…
Trivia Time: What season five contestant finished eighth, then put out a first CD that generated three top 20 hits in his genre.

Auditions from New York to San Francisco; Salt Lake to San Juan. I’ve endured them patiently. OK, sometimes impatiently. And I’m still wondering. Where is she? Where’s the country…
By MARK FRANKLIN Some updates … Wow, we didn’t get to see much of Kelly Clarkson’s new video on last Wednesday’s Idol episode, did we? For those left wondering, Kelly has come through. You can go to her Web site and watch the entire video to “My Life Would Suck Without You.” It’s cute. She’s…
By MARK FRANKLIN Yes, Miss Pickler is coming to the area. And if you plan to attend David Cook’s March 24 concert at Penn State York, you’d better get your tickets soon. First up, Kellie. And this will be great news for country music fans. She announced this weekend that she’s joining Taylor Swift’s Fearless…
By MARK FRANKLIN Hey, it’s Super Bowl Sunday. You just knew there would have to be an Idol blog with a football slant. So now there’s another reason to despise the Dallas Cowboys. I mean, I’ve never been a fan. Somehow I grew up rooting for Roman Gabriel and the Los Angeles Rams in the…
