Another Week, Another Idol Dream Shattered

When it comes to the singers on American Idol, everyone is an armchair judge. Though even the most avid fans will admit that sometimes Simon Cowell is a little cruel and unusual with contestants, he is also usually right in what he says. Last week’s elimination round saw the end to long-legged Haley Scarnato, whom Simon said during the first weeks of competition was “forgettable.” During her last few weeks on the show, it wasn’t Hayley’s voice that got notice from judges and fans alike – it was what she had going on (or off) below the waist. Fans weren’t the only ones noticing how skimpy Hayley’s outfits became – even Simon Cowell said it was a good idea for her to show off those legs. Hayley spoke about Simon’s comments and her own wardrobe choices to Ryan Seacrest during his radio show: “It’s just a costume, I would never wear that out on the street or anything…If my dad can handle it and my fiancé can handle it, then I’m not overstepping anything.” But it is interesting to note that Hayley, whether intentionally or otherwise, took the advice of the trio who host TVGuide Channel’s Idol Chat. On the air, hosts stated that Hayley’s got great legs – “she should show them off.” The very next week, Hayley was doing just that. Could be a coincidence. What’s not coincidental was Hayley’s elimination, which occurred after her rendition of “Turn the Beat Around” last week. Her departure has led to all sorts of conjecture on which Idol will be the next to get the boot.

Jennifer Lopez Guesting On American Idol This Week
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, FOX, American Idol, News,
This week, pop princess and movie star Jennifer Lopez will join the ranks of famous celebs to play mentor and guest star on American Idol. Tonight’s show will feature J Lo in mentor mode, coaching Idol wannabes on how to reach the high musical heights she has achieved…or, at least, get through this week’s competition. Lopez’s appearance and subsequent performance (scheduled for Wednesday night’s results show, where another Idol will leave the stage for good) coincide with a recent album release. There is no official word from FOX on what Lopez will perform or what tonight’s theme will be, but fans assume that a Latin-inspired evening is in the works. Will Sanjaya give crowds another rollicking performance? Will Haley Scarnato wear something incredibly revealing? Will Paula say something inane, while Simon reams competitors? It certainly wouldn’t be American Idol 6 otherwise, would it? Look for Lopez-coached performances tonight, before the diva herself takes the stage to show the Idols how it’s done during tomorrow’s live episode.
