Oh the VFTW possibilities! Alex Wagner-Trugman, VFTW pick extraordinaire, and Von Smith, could've been VFTW pick extraordinaire if he hadn't played it safe on the show, perform a version of Justin Bieber's "Baby" with the fabulous Jackie Tohn filming. So much VFTW love in one room, so you have to check it out.

Thanks to MJ'S Big Blog for the info. iTunes made a mistake AGAIN and released the sales of the wildcard performers' iTunes tracks. Matt Giraud, Anoop Desai, and Megan Corkrey are way out in front (because Idol's voting and buying audience are frauen, tweens, and crazies), followed by Tranny Alien, Ricky Braddy, Jesse Langseth, Von Smith, and in dead last fabulous Tatiana Del Toro. This certainly bodes well for 3 of the wildcards' survival in this competition. As for Jasmine? No one likes her, even if we have to hear how "commercial" she is every time she farts on stage. The only way we'd like her is if she's the VFTW pick, and even then, she barely has a shot at lasting more than 2 weeks on the show.

Von Smith STILL Makes Babies Cry

Remember how Von Smith made a baby cry when he screamed loud notes? Turns out it's not the screaming. Just the mere act of Von singing causes babies to cry, as seen above. Does this mean Von should be charged with child abuse?

American Idol Makes Babies Cry

Well, this is a pretty ringing endorsement for Von as one of the VFTW picks. Idol makes us cry too, kid.
