And then there were three. Three female contestants, that is. Now that voters have given the boot to Jasmine Murray (not surprisingly) and Alexis Grace (quite surprisingly) in consecutive weeks, this year’s Idol is starting to remind me of season three. Except in reverse. Season three was the Fantasia year. Remember the Fantasia year? Back…
The prospect of a drive of more than six hours was not going to keep Tracey Hague from watching David Cook perform live for the first time. Nor was a broken tibia, suffered when she slipped on ice a few weeks back. Tracey couldn’t snare tickets to a Cook concert scheduled for New Haven, Connecticut,…
Simon Cowell summed up the 2008 American Idol finale with two words: “a knockout” — for David Archuleta. Funny thing though, Idol voters saw it differently. And when the season seven winner was announced the next night, David Cook was the one receiving congratulations as the confetti fell all around him. A year later, his…

Whatever became of little ol’ Kellie Pickler, the small-town girl from Albemarle, N.C.? First, she becomes a celebrity spokeswoman for the Sexy Hair ad campaign that kicks off next month in Cosmopolitan, Allure and the like. Then she shows up at Fashion Week in New York, mingling with the likes of Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian…
Oh, my, the influence Sanjaya Malakar has had. Fellow season six contestant Blake Lewis posted a vlog on his MySpace page recently in which he introduces us to his pet dog. And the dog sports … what else? … a mohawk. OK, I have no idea if Sanjaya inspired the mohawk or not. But Idol…
First, we heard from Kelly Clarkson. Then Carrie Underwood. Next week on the Idol results show, we’ll hear from Ruben Studdard, who will sing his new single, “Together.” After all, it will be Motown Week on Idol, with Smokey Robinson and Berry Gordy serving as mentors to the contestants. In fact, eight of the 10…
The new American Idol judges’ save took an almost cruel turn Wednesday night. Alexis Grace had been told she was the night’s low vote-getter, that only the judges could rescue her from elimination, from becoming a part of Idol history. Then Simon Cowell told Alexis the judges were considering doing just that. But, first, she…
OK, Ryan wasn’t kidding at the beginning of last night’s show. That was a bit of a shock. I mean, I had Alexis Grace’s performance of “Jolene” graded as the worst of all 11 Tuesday night. But I really thought the 4-foot-11 blonde dynamo would have enough appeal with voters to survive one poor performance….
