John Park, one of American Idol season 9's least memorable semifinalists (besides the time he got Shania Twain all hot and bothered) has decided to audition for Super Star K, which is basically Kroean Idol. TopIdol reports that since John is Korean-American, he figured he'd try his luck on the other side of the ocean. It's not a bad decision since people like Jasmine Trias who suck horribly have then had success in Asia. But John didn't seem to have a whole lot of personality, so he may just be putting the Korean TV audience to sleep now. And trying out for 2 televised karaoke shows in one year screams desperation. Either way though, no one really cares and we anticipate this story being the last we hear about this.

The American Idol contestants are allowed to use Twitter, Facebook, and MySpace this year as Idol finally comes into the 21st century and embraces social networking. Of course, the results are homogonized and bland due to Idol's tight grasp. VFTW reader Mikey sent us an interesting e-mail comparing the times that the various contestants post on their Twitter. For example, on February 18th, all of the contestants posted between 6:48 PM and 7:11 PM. The pattern continues each day. All of the contestants post within the same half hour window. This tells us that the contestants are either forced to tweet at the same time each day, or more likely, a production assistant or someone is required to update the contestant Twitters with random stuff. How non interesting.

TheTVAddict.com also anaylzed the contestants' social media to see who is the most popular. Not surprisingly, Andrew Garcia is in the #1 spot. Rounding out the top 5 are John Park, Tyler Grady, Tim Urban, and Aaron Kelly. The least friended contestant is Michelle Delamor, so we'll probably be saying goodbye to her on Thursday. These stats only take into account Idol fans that use social media, but it's probably a good thing to take into account.
