Adam Lambert, Idols on the Music Chart
Adam’s album lands at number three

December 3, 2009 By Mark Franklin 0

Billboard released its new music charts this morning, and here’s the news everyone has been waiting for. Adam Lambert’s debut album “For Your Entertainment” checked in at number three on the Billboard 200. I’m sure there will be much speculation during the next 24 hours — and maybe longer — over whether that now infamous…
Adam Lambert, Idols at awards shows
Adam feels the wrath of ABC, or the FCC

December 2, 2009 By Mark Franklin 0

Hmm, ABC might have been just a little miffed over the way Adam Lambert got “carried away” during his now infamous performance on the AMAs. Less than an hour ago (about 8:10 p.m. Wednesday), Adam alerted fans via Twitter that ABC has canceled his scheduled performances on Jimmy Kimmel Live and New Year’s Rockin’ Eve….

Idols tidbits on Kellie, Carrie, Ruben and Jason

December 2, 2009 By Mark Franklin 0

* A blog I posted earlier this week included a link to video of Kellie Pickler singing “Santa Baby.” If you missed it, here’s the link again. Anyway, “Santa Baby” by Kellie and “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing” by Carrie Underwood are featured on the album, “A Very Special Christmas 7,” released last week. The…

Idol tidbits of various sorts … 1. iTunes released its list of top-selling singles and albums for the week ending Nov. 30. Adam Lambert checks in at number five, behind Lady Gaga, Susan Boyle, Rihanna and John Mayer, in that order. Nowhere to be found: Kris Allen. Stay tuned. Billboard charts are out Thursday. 2….

Watch Allison Iraheta’s TV performance

December 1, 2009 By Mark Franklin 0

Allison Iraheta appeared on Good Morning America Tuesday morning, performing the single “Friday I’ll Be Over” as she begins the promo tour for her new album. That album hits stores today (Dec. 1), perhaps with considerably less fanfare than accompanied the release of the debut albums from Kris Allen two weeks ago or Adam Lambert…
Adam Lambert, Ellen DeGeneres
Adam Lambert tells Ellen: Maybe I went a little too far

December 1, 2009 By Mark Franklin 0

Adam Lambert still isn’t apologizing for his performance at the American Music Awards. But during the taping of the Ellen DeGeneres Show Monday, Adam admitted “it was maybe a little too far.” “I forgot this was the first time people were seeing me on TV again after Idol,” he said during the interview. “I didn’t…

Expect a tamer Adam Lambert on Ellen Tuesday

November 30, 2009 By Mark Franklin 0

Adam Lambert will be back on national TV Tuesday afternoon. But don’t expect a repeat of his performance on the American Music Awards when he shows up on the “Ellen DeGeneres Show” (4 p.m. WHP Channel 21). He’ll be singing “Whataya Want From Me,” a song of a tamer sort and one that lends itself…

New songs to check out from Megan Joy, Katharine McPhee

November 29, 2009 By Mark Franklin 0

Megan Joy posted her first post-Idol songs on her MySpace page. As of 11 p.m. last night, two songs were up, “Incomplete” and “Feel Love.” In a Twitter Tweet, Megan indicated she wrote the lyrics to “Feel Love.” No word on who wrote “Incomplete.” Of the two, that’s my favorite. Megan sounds very good on…

Next up among season eight Idols: Allison Iraheta

November 29, 2009 By Mark Franklin 0

So, we have a first-album flop from Kris Allen. So, we have a first album from Adam Lambert overshadowed by on-stage antics at the American Music Awards. Next up: Allison Iraheta, the gal I still say belonged alongside Adam in this year’s Idol finals. Unfortunately, no one is streaming a full version of Allison’s debut…
After American Idol
Alexis Stone Lopez reflects on the birth of Idol, talks about her tribute to Michael Jackson

November 28, 2009 By Mark Franklin 0

Alexis Stone Lopez was just 17 when she decided to drive from her home in Modesto, Calif., to Los Angeles to try out for a fledgling FOX TV show. She recalls driving about six hours, then waiting in line from 3 a.m. until noon for her “first big audition,” one that lasted just 40 seconds….
