He admits to being relieved after he was eliminated but he did not say DONT VOTE.
He says the biggest misconception about him was, "There was an interview this last week [with Entertainment Weekly], and I said I had wanted to go home or something. I think this week, everyone kind of had the idea that I was ready to go. And that wasn't my mindset at all going in. But every week has its ups and downs, and that morning, when I had that interview, I was kind of frustrated with a lot of things. ... There was a lot going on that morning, and that sort of came across wrong. The way I was on the show, people were kinda thinking that I didn't want to be there, which was never my mindset."
He also states when asked about the DONT VOTE accusation, "I was saying, "Vote," and then I said it again. I was kind of trying to emphasize that, but nobody heard me. And I remember going and sitting down and thinking about it, and they kind of have the same syllables, and it's gonna look like "Don't vote." That went through my mind, and I was like, "Dang it." Consciously, the second time, I only said, "Vote," once when they were showing the phone numbers, because I thought of that."
I miss him already :( But I'm proud of how far he's come considering the lack of exposure he was given in the rounds before the TOP 24. He had a good attitude about it, even though he admits that it made him nervous at first. His proudest moment he says was when Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley went to #1 on iTunes after he sang it on the show. "When I saw that, I realized the amount of power that "American Idol" has. ... It was just such an honor. How cool. If people hadn't heard that song, they should've. I'm glad now they have."
And lastly, on his elimination: "I was ready for it to go either way. [When I was eliminated,] I just really felt relieved. The pressure was off. I loved my time on there, and I would've liked to go farther, but I don't think I could handle it. I'm content."
And if he's happy, I'm happy!

Jason Castro Sets the Record Straight

Hot Heidi

Heidi Montag has been placed at number 36 on Maxim's Hottest List this year, beating out Miss Lauren Conrad, who came in at 56! But considering Lauren could have bought a better nose and a bigger set of boobs and placed higher, I think getting #56 the all natural way isn't anything to be embarassed about! Who'd you pick?
If you're undecided...you have plenty of time to decide which team you're on because THE HILLS confirmed this week that it will be back with a 4th season in the fall!
GO LC!

The Newlyweds...
"From the first time we sat down to discuss the video at the Beverly Hills Hotel, we connected," Cannon said. "We had so much in common spiritually, and we laugh at the same things. I didn't have to put on my Mac Daddy suave mode. I was able to be myself with her. We are both eternally 12 years old."
They began a whirlwind romance, and raised eyebrows when Carey was seen sporting a huge diamond ring on her finger at the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of her movie "Tennessee," in which she plays a waitress. Carey said she told "only about four people" about the wedding.
Were Carey's friends surprised?
"Some were, but some weren't," she said. "One thing (few people) knew was we got tattoos a few weeks earlier. So anyone who saw my (Mrs. Cannon) tattoo wasn't surprised." Chiming in, Cannon said, "To me rings are special and exciting, but tattoos mean more than anything. They're forever and ever. They professed our love."
INTENSE! HAHA

Katherine Heigl Checking Out?

A source close to Katherine Heigl says that the actress wants out of her Grey's Anatomy contract. The insider says, “She's working really long hours and is ready to move on.”
She has proven that she's a movie star. Hiegl-fronted flicks Knocked Up and 27 Dresses and both were very successful. I actually just saw 27 Dresses last night on DVD and loved it. Typical romantic comedy but she definitely has the charm to carry a movie :)
A movie industry expert is quoted as saying, “She’s a smart one. She saw what can happen with someone like Jennifer Aniston, who was crazy successful on TV, but can’t seem to carry a film, and she tested the waters early.” Unfortunately, she's under contract so she might have to wait a bit.

Ashlee and Pete marrying next week!

Man, talk about a shotgun wedding!
It's just been leaked that Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz are getting married next Friday on May 16th! Why the rush, I wonder? Is she preggo? Or is Papa Joe Simpson looking for a quick paycheck? An insider says:
The wedding invitations have been sent out, its taking place the weekend of May 16. The location will not be revealed until the day of the wedding but guests are told it will be an hour drive from Los Angeles
So what do you think? Everyone is guessing she's pregnant...and there are some pics making their way around the internet that show Ashlee having pretty big...umm...water balloons? I'm sort of thinking it has something to do with her father though, mainly because he's a total D-Bag. Seriously, I'm expecting him to sell his daughters' bodies to Playboy any day now.

Barack Obama drinks Pabst Blue Ribbon!?

So when me and my buddies are trying to get drunk, we drink crappy beer. Ya know...Coors Light, Bud Light, Pabst Blue Ribbon. Which raises a good question -- is Barack Obama good at flip cup?
Obama was seen yesterday drinking a $2 draft of PBR down in Raleigh, NC. He must've been tanked, because he tipped the bartender $18!
The bartender that served $1 drafts to me and KISS 108 superstars Jackson Blue and Spanky in Lowell didn't even get that much of a tip! I bet if Obama wins, there's gonna be a kegger at the White House.

Did Jason Castro want to go home?
In quite possibly one of the stupidest things I've ever read, TMZ is reporting that Jason Castro may have sent America a message to vote him off of Idol. After Castro sang (if you can even call it that) Bob Marley's I Shot the Sheriff and got humiliated by Simon, Jason mouthed two words while Seacrest was giving out his number.
Now, to me and everyone else in America, Jason said, "Vote! Vote!" But to TMZ, who apparently has now resorted to trying to create their own drama to put on their website, Jason said, "Don't vote!"
I decided to put my keen CSI skills to work and analyze the video tons of times on YouTube. After checking out Castro's mouth more times than I'd care to, it's pretty obvious that he said "Vote! Vote!" If you're that interested, you can check out the video below and fast forward to the end. But just look at Castro's lips and mouth placement when he starts saying the first word. His teeth are over his bottom lip. Now say "vote" outloud and feel where your teeth are. Now try saying "don't" outloud. If your teeth are over your bottom lip when you try saying "don't," then you have some effed up teeth and should see your dentist.
Listen TMZ, I might think Jason Castro is a kiddie-toucher-to-be, but I don't think he's dumb enough to ask to be eliminated.

No knot-tying yet for Joel and Nicole
Joel Madden might love father hood, but he's said he's definitely not ready to turn Nicole Richie into Mrs. Madden. Normally I'd make fun of this, but I say it's a good idea. There's enough Hollywood kids that I'm sure will be making out with padded cells because of bad decisions their parents made (See: Britney Spears and Sons), so not rushing into anything is probably a good thing.
Joel said he wants to do something very special for Nicole for Mother's Day, and he's amped to spend it with her.
She is a great mom. She is super mom!
He's so mommy-spot whipped.

Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer already over?
John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston may be on the road to Splitsville. After spending a boatload of time together, John was seen out in New York City on Friday night with Maroon 5 front-man Adam Levine. That's not the story.
The story is that ole Johnny Boy was seen all over some blonde not named Jennifer Aniston. Maybe they really were just friends? Or maybe they liked to play tag underneath the covers?
I really don't get how Jen has such bad luck in love. She must be psycho or something. She's a good-looking girl with a nice body and she seems nice. I just don't get it. Maybe she has "man parts"?

Is Ashley Tisdale single?

Ashley Tisdale and Jared Murillo may not be together anymore. There hasn't been an official word yet, but one of the members of Jared's band, VFactory, stirred up some controversy after he answered a fan's question on YouTube.
Nicky T was asked if all of the boys in the group were single. His answer?
Yes, and ready to mingle.
Ashley, if you're reading this, I say drop the zero and get with the hero (I'd be the hero.)

Worst Idol performance last night
Jason Castro for Bob Marley's I Shot the Sheriff:
And the second worst performance goes to...Jason Castro for Bob Dylan's Mr. Tambourine Man:
If he doesn't go home tonight, then I'll write-in Paula Abdul as President of the United States of America. And I'd rather have Sanjaya as President than Paula Abdul.
