So many Idol albums were released in 2009, I wondered who from the show was left to grace us with new music in 2010. I shouldn’t have feared. Looks like the season two Idols are coming to the rescue. Clay Aiken is preparing for a March 12 show in Raleigh, N.C., where he will debut…

So, you’ve been waiting to see that episode of “How I Met Your Mother” that features Carrie Underwood in a guest star role. Well, your wait is almost over. The episode airs at 8 p.m. Monday on CBS. Carrie plays a pretty pharmaceutical sales rep named Tiffany. She’s a love interest for Ted, played by…
Idols on the Music Chart
Kris Allen’s single cracks the top 20

February 27, 2010 By Mark Franklin 0

Pretty good week for Kris Allen, right? I mean, he returns to American Idol, makes a plea for Haiti relief and performs “Let It Be.” (Go here for photos from the performance; here for the pre-show interview with Kris about his trip to Haiti.) To top it off, his “Live Like We’re Dying” single hit…
Janell Wheeler, Season 9, Season 9 Semifinals
Janell Wheeler, the Sunshine Cowgirl, plans to play on

February 26, 2010 By Mark Franklin 0

Janell Wheeler admits she might have made a strategic mistake during the first round of the ladies’ semifinals on American Idol. She had tried to inject a country flavor into Heart’s “What About Love,” but felt like the song lost its edge. So she performed more of a rock version of the song Tuesday night….

Joe Munoz: Did he get a fair shake on Idol?

February 26, 2010 By Mark Franklin 0

Joe Munoz would certainly have every right to feel as though he didn’t get a fair shake on American Idol. After all, viewers had lots of time to get to know Big Michael Lynche. They watched Kara carry on about Casey James, and Shania Twain swoon and spark over John Park. Heck, even Tyler Grady…

Ashley Rodriguez: Idol judges came out throwing punches

February 26, 2010 By Mark Franklin 0

So did it seem to anyone that the American Idol judges were a little cranky during the first round of the season nine semifinals? Well, it apparently seemed that way to Ashley Rodriguez and some of the other Idol contestants. “We’ve all kind of agreed that Simon and the rest of the judges were a…

Tyler Grady: Watch out for Wailing Waters

February 26, 2010 By Mark Franklin 0

If anyone had any question about what Tyler Grady will be doing now that he’s been eliminated from American Idol, he cleared it up Friday afternoon. The 20-year-old from Nazareth is coming back to Pennsylvania to perform with his band, Wailing Waters. He dropped the name of the band at least three times during a…
Idol Gives Back, Kris Allen
Idol’s true gentleman, Kris Allen, makes a plea for Haiti

February 25, 2010 By Mark Franklin 0

Nice seeing Kris Allen back on the Idol stage tonight, wasn’t it? I mean, Kris might not be the most talented or the best-selling contestant ever crowned as “the American Idol.” And I’m not a huge fan of his music. But you’re going to be hard-pressed to find more of a gentleman among contestants from…
Ashley Rodriguez, Janell Wheeler, Joe Munoz, Season 9, Season 9 Semifinals, Tyler Grady
Shocked by Idol’s Thursday night eliminations

February 25, 2010 By Mark Franklin 0

Did I think Janell Wheeler or Ashley Rodriguez had a chance of being the season nine American Idol? Not really. Ashley has a better smile than singing voice. Janell proved her vunerability with two poor song choices in a row. But for crying out loud they were miles better on opening night than Haeley Vaughn…
Season 9, Season 9 Semifinals
Final predictions for the 1st Idol results show

February 25, 2010 By Mark Franklin 0

Well, viewers have made their decisions on who will come and who will go. Tonight at 9 p.m. — well, likely closer to the close of the show at 10 p.m. — we’ll find out who’ve they given the boot. Will those with the weakest round one performances be packing their bags? Don’t count on…
