Billboard updates its music charts Thursday night. Here’s the latest on where the former Idols stand: * Kelly Clarkson: Two weeks after owning the top spot, Kelly’s “All I Ever Wanted” CD has skidded to number 14 in its fourth week on Billboard’s Hot 200 albums. Keith Urban and Prince own the top and second…
So, Adam Lambert finally got his critiques Wednesday night. Of course, that was 22 hours after viewer voting had ended for the weekly Idol results show. And, wow, Idol sure lucked out that the last singer Tuesday night was Adam as opposed to — well, let’s say Anoop Desai or Scott MacIntyre. In case you,…
Scott MacIntyre had a simple explanation for playing electric guitar while singing Survivor’s “The Search Is Over” on American Idol earlier this week. During the judges’ lukewarm critiques of his Tuesday night performance, Scott said it was his “punk side coming out.” That made everyone laugh. Turns out, Scott MacIntyre has a punk side. Or…
One of my fellow York Dispatch bloggers — Andy Shaw, who can tell you anything you ever wanted to know about “America’s Next Top Model” — pointed out something about last night’s Idol show that I didn’t realize, watching it live. The show ran late, about five minutes late. Meaning anyone who watched the show…
Talk about two shows with totally different tones. A week ago, you could tell the judges weren’t exactly saddened by the departure of free-spirited Megan Joy. Simon was perfectly blunt when asked about a judges’ save for Megan. He didn’t care. Then came tonight, when Scott MacIntyre’s fate was on the line. Two judges wanted…
Here we go. The Idols will be singing songs from the years of their birth tonight. That pretty much means it will be ’80s night on Idol. The lone exception is Allison Iraheta from the birth class of 1992. Three of our remaining finalists — Kris Allen, Scott MacIntyre and Matt Giraud — were born…
The Idols got to sing songs from the years of their birth Tuesday night. And wasn’t it great hearing all those stories about their childhood? I mean, that footage of Matt Giraud performing in a church play as a young boy was priceless, right? And how about that story about Allison Iraheta. About how she…
Once again this week, our remaining Idols will be left to their own devices. I mean, the theme is songs from the years of their birth. So each should have the freedom to pick a song that fits his or her musical style. Of course, that nearly spelled disaster for Anoop Desai and Matt Giraud…
Fans who just can’t wait for Michael Johns’ first post-Idol album will have to wait a little longer. In a press release issued Monday, Michael announced a new release date of June 23 for “Hold Back My Heart.” The originally announced release date was June 2. But the delay wasn’t surprising given that Michael’s first…
Wow, we’re 10 minutes into the Academy of Country Music awards show, and I think we’ve already heard as much music as we do doing an American Idol performance show. Carrie Underwood, looking lovely in white, already sang a snippet of “All-American Girl,” and we’ve heard from Taylor Swift, Sugarland and others. Carrie and fellow…
