America, Here Are Your Judges...

wow, this is just weird for me.. haha it's going to take a bit getting used to... here's one of the first pics of Idol's 4 judges together.. in NYC at Chelsea Piers...

Paula Abdul Excited about New Judge

Paula doesn't feel threatened by the presence of another female judge in the upcoming season of IDOL.. she welcomes her... "It’s about time another girl joined,” Abdul told PEOPLE Monday at the U.S. Open opening night celebration in Flushing, N.Y. “More girl power.”

The two have been friends for a while so there is no tension.. they worked together on a song for Kylie Mignogue back in the day...

But will adding another female judge take the spotlight away from Abdul? “No,” says the singer. “This is great for the show. I’ve been waiting for this. I really have and people will love her. She’s great!”

Crazy Idol News

So with the ratings dropping and the producer leaving the show, Idol has been looking at ways to boost its popularity... they've decided to add a 4th judge!!!!!! Is this not crazy news?!?! They're adding another female... a songwriter, Kara DioGuardi... she's wrote alot of hits for Ashlee Simpson and not sure who else.. haha

Adds executive producer Cecile Frot-Coutaz, "We had originally intended for AMERICAN IDOL to have four judges. We've seen from our international series that having a fourth judge creates a dynamic that benefits both the contestants and the viewers."

I think it might be too much but we'll see... do you think she'll be mean like Simon or another Paula?

Idol tour won't stop the love train for David Cook and Kimberly Caldwell

Unlike the other David from the latest season of Idol, David Cook has it all right now. He's the reigning American Idol, he's about to take off on the Idol tour (53 performances in 49 cities over 72 days), and he has a HOT girlfriend (complete with kissing...poor Archuleta). But a lot of people are saying that the Idol tour could break his relationship with Kimberly Caldwell because it's so demanding. Cook's not worried.

I get to do what I love and love what I do, so no, it doesn't put a damper on anything. Kim's great. She's got a little bit of insight on it which definitely helps. She's very supportive, and not only with me but with my entire family, which is huge. She's great.

The Idol tour kicks off today in Glendale, AZ. I plan on keeping Kimberly company while Mr. Cook is gone. Sorry bro...you snooze, you lose.

Idol Contestant Paris Bennett Pregnant..

anybody remember her? She was a tiny thing... but not anymore... she's expecting.. she's also 19... which is older than I thought she'd be.. so I guess she's not horribly young for a baby...

The Rockford, Ill., native's mother, Jamecia Bennett, told the paper that the father "chooses not to be in the public eye." She added that Paris "has a ring" and is expecting to have a baby shower in August.

Paris was a contestant on the 2006 season and went on to make an album, which featured a duet with the kid who looked like Chicken Little.. and sadly, he was rapping in the song haha it was hilarious...

David Archuleta: Never been kissed

That's right, David Archuleta has never been kissed. The 17-year-old Idol runner-up has gone on record saying he still hasn't gotten his first kiss yet. I can't say I'm all that surprised though.

I mean, he did act like an awkward pubescent teen whenever he was interviewed on TV, and sounded like he had the puberty voice whenever he talked.

Maybe he's just shy? Yeah, we'll go with that before we start any rumors... ::cough::Clay Aiken::cough::

Former Idol contestant kicking cancer's ass

Former American Idol Season 7 contestant Luke Menard is said to be doing very well with his cancer battle. Luke was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma, but fellow contestant Michael Johns said that he's doing great after this second round of chemo.

Atta boy, Luke!

David Cook thinks Archuleta's dad is cool

I didn't realize this was still an issue, seeing as how American Idol ended about a month ago, but apparently there's still talk going on about how people view David Arculeta's dad, Jeff. Idol winner David Cook was the latest to throw in his two cents.

I've never seen Jeff be anything but a caring, loving father, so for me it’s much ado about nothing.

Cook also said he's excited to have Jeff on the bus for the American Idol tour. Maybe now that everyone smells what the winner is Cookin' (see what I did there?), this topic can die quicker than Jackson's attraction to women.

YAYYY IM THE HAPPIEST GIRL ALIVE

Any Archuleta fans out there????? He just scored a record deal with JIVE RECORDS! Old home of Miss Britney Spears!!! And it's the same label that Cook got signed to so that's awesome! Maybe they'll do a duet :)

Simon Fuller, the mastermind behind Idol and the chief executive of 19 Entertainment Label Group, called Archuleta a “genuine pop star” and said he “has a great future ahead of him.”

I'M SO EXCITEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Confirmed: Cook and Caldwell

David Cook IS dating former fellow Idol contestant, Kimberly Caldwell. She appeared in the 2nd season alongside Mr. Ruben Studdard.

How'd the two meet? He appeared on her show on the TV Guide Network and put her on the spot. Cook spewed the following...."I'm just excited because I finally get to talk to you," he told her during an interview Wednesday night on the Idol Tonight show. "I've been hearing you say all these nice things about me all season, So I'm actually going to ask you to dinner right now."

Caldwell accepted, with a hug, telling the camera after Cook left, "I just got asked out on a date."


Hahaha soooo random but they're cute, hope it works :)

Latest Idol Buzz...

now that the show is over and we don't have performances or judge reviews to talk about... how bout the next best thing?!?! hook-ups!!! Latest rumor says that David Cook is now dating former Idol contestant, Kimberley Caldwell, who hosts the Idol Show on channel 58.

Check out the video, what do you think?


Lying to the paparazzi or telling the truth?

Cook Gets New Chopper

I so want one :( Check out the chopper that David Cook received for winning Idol. Ultra Motorcycle Co. of Temecula, California made it for the new winner. It features a few past Idols on the right of the gas tank and all judges on the back! Hahaha

AND YOUR NEW AMERICAN IDOL IS....

DAVID COOK!!! If you missed it, check it out....the moment of truth... sigh, though I am proud of my baby for not crying, he handled it with class and dignity :)

TONIGHT: THE FINAL SHOWDOWN

We've arrived at our final DAVID VS DAVID destination.... who's gonna take it home??

The finale should be awesome tonight... here's what's planned for tonight:

Insider info states that the finale will include a virtual hologram of Gladys Knight singing "Midnight Train to Georgia" with Ben Stiller, Jack Black and Downey Jr. singing backup as the Pips. That should be amazingly funny if it's true! "Idol" did this last season when Celine Dion sang along with Elvis. Though, not sure why they are attempting this again with a well-and-alive Gladys Knight? She could have just sang in person haha

I also heard that the Jonas Brothers, ZZ Top (haha going old school), Seal, Bryan Adams, One Republic, Jordin Sparks and Carrie Underwood will also perform.

Worst Idol performance of the night

Like last week, in no way is this "worst performance" a horrible performance. Archuleta sang it well, but at the same time, I'm so sick of hearing ballads as the winning song. And it didn't stick in my head like Cook's choice did.

That being said, I'm on Team Archuleta to win tonight. He's a true face of American Idol, plus David Cook would be better suited in a band like Daughtry is. But I think Cook can blow Daughtry out of the water, hands down.

Who is the Next American Idol?

Last night was awesome! I thought both Davids did amazing!! I think the praising that Archuleta got from the judges totally worked in Cook's favor though. Cook fans got nervous and kept calling in. According to dialidol.com, he is favored to take home the title tonight! Who do you think will come up on top?

Best Idol performance from last night

I know this is pretty shocking since it's a song that no one has ever heard before, but Cookie KILLED it with his performance of Dream Big. This song was stuck in my head for 5 mins after he finished, and I think that says something. Plus, I'm sick of the winning song being some puke-worthy ballad.

Speaking of Idol...

This is Fantasia Barrino's performance from the results show last night. She looks like an awkward clown and sounds like her testicles are in a vice grip.



Wait, what? She doesn't have testicles? Check again.

And Your New American Idol is... DAVID!

The question is which one?!? It's gonna be a DAVID vs. DAVID finale, just like I was hoping!! Haha Syesha Mercado got sent home last night, which leaves the 2 boys. I think they both have their strong points and weaknesses. Should be an intense finale.. I hope I'm not too nervous to watch! haha
