Wednesday night, Scotty McCreery was named the American Idol for Season 10. Thursday afternoon (well, morning where he is), Scotty talked to the media about Idol and his future in music. “This is pretty wild, I gotta say,” he said. “A whole lot more than I bargained for when I got into this. It’s been…
Congratulations, Scotty McCreery. And congratulations, American Idol voters. For the first time in three years, you picked the deserving American Idol finalist. And didn’t fall for the bull the show was dishing out Tuesday night. The 17-year-old from Garner, N.C., arrived on the Idol scene in the Milwaukee auditions, surprising the judges with his deep…
Random thoughts on American Idol’s Season 10 finale. Another male winner: Scotty McCreery marks the fourth straight male winner of Idol. And some folks are already calling anew for changes to Idol voting, saying a female will never win again. Truth is, Scotty was the deserving winner. (Go here for the Scotty McCreery victory blog)….
Here’s a photo gallery from last night’s manic episode of American Idol. You won’t find photos of Taio Cruz singing the new Pepsi … oops, Coke song. None were provided. I wouldn’t include them if they were. What a waste of time. Nor of the judges. What a waste of … wel, everything. But here…
OK, I gotta confess. I’m a little flabergasted, dazed and bewildered by what we all just witnessed. But I’ve recovered enough to declare this: Not for a moment do I believe what the judges said at the end of tonight’s last performance show of American Idol. All three judges declared that Lauren should win. What…
Nod-off time at the Nokia Theatre has almost arrived. Whoa! Stop that! OK, I’ve adjusted my attitude. It’s time to stop sulking over the fact that Haley Reinhart or James Durbin aren’t in the Idol finals tonight and enjoy this teen vs. teen, twang vs. twang showdown between Scotty McCreery, aka Mr. Consistent, and Lauren…
Apparently, for the second straight year, we’ll be spared the horror of an Idol coronation song. Each of our American Idol finalists will be performing three songs Tuesday night (8 p.m. FOX). And instead of a coronation song, Idol will follow the same format as last year and allow each finalist to sing their first…
So, have you seen David Cook’s new video for “The Last Goodbye?” If not, you should check it out. It’s not at all what you’d expect from a video for a breakup song. Quite a hoot, actually. And beat this deal: You can download it for free this week from iTunes. We’ll also apparently be…
Create the most-watched show in the land, and I guess you deserve a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. That’s the honor bestowed on Simon Fuller Monday, which marked a nice way to kick off the week that includes the Idol finale. All the Idols from Season 10 were on hand for the festivities,…
Not happy with the pairing for American Idol’s Season 10 finale? Not excited about the prospect of watching a teen vs. teen, twang vs. twang showdown? Here’s a suggestion: Boycott Idol Tuesday night. Check out The Voice on NBC (10 p.m. Tuesday) instead. You’ll have to overlook a large dose of hokey, like battle rounds…
