Jasmine Murray, the not-so-memorable top 13 contestant from American Idol 8, performed "Single Ladies" at the 2009 Mary Kay Seminar. An odd venue, but Jasmine shows 100 times more personality and better vocals than she ever did on the show, so good for her. Hopefully this will lead to other opportunities, like the 2010 Avon Convention and the 2011 Ms. Regional Tupperware Reunion Tour.

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.

A list of the top 36 was just sent to us via e-mail. How reliable is this list? It looks like it! We've talked to JoesPlace and done some more research and we're all pretty sure this is right. Thanks to JP for helping us out with this, we make a good team. So here you go, without further ado, more likely than not, your top 36 (click read more for the list). That's a pretty big spoiler!
