American Idol 8: Matt Giraud’s Peaceful Elimination
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, FOX, American Idol, Gossip,
“I never imagined myself the American Idol,” Matt Giraud admitted after his exit from the show Wednesday. “I was kind of at peace with the whole thing,” he said of ousting from the show, which occurred a mere two weeks after he was saved from the elimination noose by the new judges’ save.
Giraud is looking forward to joining the Idol tour this summer, and thinks perhaps he’ll start a band when all his roadwork is said and done. “Maybe something like The Fray,” he suggested. “I’d love to go in that direction.”

American Idol 8: Top 11 Results
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, FOX, American Idol, Gossip,
The mood was appropriately grave at the top of the Wednesday night American Idol hour. It was a somber Ryan Seacrest who started off the evening by saying, “one will face the fire.” He also inferred that the evening would hold “shocking” results.
Could it be that, as suspected, Adam Lambert was up on the chopping block? The audience would have to wait awhile to find out what the evening held.
First, the filler. The Top 11 were seated on the stage, the judges were introduced, the performances of the evening hyped. Clips from Tuesday night aired, which featured mentor Randy Travis.
The Top 11 then performed “Trouble,” which started out with the men. Scott MacIntyre jammed on the piano while the male contestants sang, horribly out of harmony, before the girls appeared to gyrate oddly and screech onstage. I didn’t much care for the group number.

Idol: Coming Soon to a City Near You
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, FOX, American Idol, Internet,
The American Idol summer tour has officially been announced. In case you just can’t get enough of Idol, here’s your chance to catch the top 10 finalists performing live. I don’t want to get too down on Idol, but at this point, I just want the whole thing to be over. Not sure I could endure a live show after a very long season. Finishing in the top 10 definitely has its perks though—they’re booked for 56 shows—so their 10 minutes of fame could get a nice little extension (I’m looking at you, Sanjaya). Check out Melinda Doolittle, Chris Sligh, Gina Glocksen, Sanjaya Malakar, Haley Scarnato, Phil Stacey, Lakisha Jones, Blake Lewis, Chris Richardson and Jordin Sparks at a city near you! Tickets go on sale on May 19th. Visit the American Idol web site for tour infomation.
