Looks like Idol isn't the magic formula after all. While one former Idol at least got something at the Grammies (Carrie Underwood won Best Female Country Vocal Performance, and songwriters for Farmbot and Boomie won in 2 other categories), the other Idols left empty-handed. Major tool Daughtry rightfully lost in all categories except for Worst Performance by a Tool with an Idiotic Tattoo (he almost lost to Blake Lewis), while Mantasia, Kelly Clarkson, and homophobe Mandisa also took home nothing. Don't be sad, kids. You can still come back to sing Idol Gives Head 2.0 since you'll likely be forced to anyway. And we just had to post this funny picture of John Mayer and Daughtry at the finale, courtesy of MJ's Big Blog. Leave us a comment and write a caption!

How ironic is it that Nigel Lythgoe called VFTW a "fly buzzing around a cow," leading us up to this week's Entertainment Weekly cover where ponyhawked fly Sanjaya is buzzing around Jordin Sparks in what looks like a suspiciously cow-like print dress. The latest issue is actually pretty good, letting us remember great moments like Kevin Covais's Part Time Lover, and it even offers up a VFTW question in the trivia section:

49. Who was the first American Idol contestant to be "championed" by the notorious website Votefortheworst.com?

A. Julia DeMato

B. Kevin Covais

C. Jennifer Hudson

D. John Stevens

Jennifer Hudson, known to Worsters affectionately as Boomquisha or Boomie, just won the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress. Jennifer was actually the first ever VFTW pick due to her crazy outfits and over the top singing. Soon after, Boomie became way too good to be VFTW and rose in the ranks. And voila... she wins a Golden Globe. Big things happen for VFTW picks.

In other news, that bitch Whatevia STILL ain't impressed.

Votefortheworst.com was started shortly prior to American Idol 3, and it started to pick up steam as the season began. With no prior support and virtually no audience, VFTW struggled to convert people to the fun side. The first ever VFTW pick was Jennifer "Boomie" Hudson for her crazy outfits and over the top singing style. Votes for Boomie and contestants like the terrible Briana Ramirez-Rial and Lisa Wilson didn't accomplish much. But we realized America loved bad performances as much as us when our wildcard pick, Jon Peter Lewis was voted into the finals after his truly horrific performance of "A Little Less Conversation".

In the top 12, we first targeted Leah Labelle when she butchered "You Keep Me Hangin On". She was voted out that first week. Then we jumped on board the Matt Rogers train when he ruined Lonestar's "Amazed". He was also voted out. We realized that without getting the word out about our goals, we were probably doomed to fail. Then, we chose red-haired crooner John Stevens. He ruined the classic "My Girl" by boring the audience to death. For the first time, our pick stayed in the competition! We were so excited, and Teen Martin didn't let us down. The following week, he sang "Crocodile Rock", his voice cracking hysterically as he reached for the falsetto notes. We continued to throw support behind him and people started noticing the website. Hate mail started pouring in and little tweenyboppers started the very first threats to shut down the site. The following week, John ended up in the top 3. Ironically, first VFTW pick Jennifer Hudson was eliminated after becoming way too good for the VFTW pledge and establishing herself as one of the front runners. A frenzy erupted, and people all over the country called for John Stevens' head on a platter. John stayed in the competition one more week to bore the audience with a Gloria Estefan tune, and he was inevitably sent packing.

VFTW then latched onto Jasmine Trias, the tone deaf 17 year old from Hawaii. Thanks to help from Hawaii, Jasmine also began to outlast better contestants. In the final 4, Jasmine mutiliated "It's Raining Men" and started crying crodocile tears to gain sympathy votes. We voted as hard as we could, and Jasmine stuck around while the incredibly talented LaToya London was sent packing. Jasmine stayed in one more week to finish in 3rd place, and VFTW retired for the season.
