Taylor Hicks Gets a Role in Grease

Why do they even call the show American Idol anymore? They might as well call it Fail At Releasing An Album Then Have a Role on Broadway Idol. VFTW winner Taylor Hicks joins the long line of Idols who received a Broadway role. He'll be performing as Teen Angel in Grease, singing "Beauty School Dropout", for 3 months from June through September. Though honestly, even he can do better that that. His second album is also due out soon, and Taylor says it will have country influences and political songs. Whatever you do, don't piss off your rabid, overweight, delusional haus frau fanbase. They're the ones buying 100 of your albums each. So you might want to write a song called "I Like to Sleep With Menopausal Fat Chicks" as a precautionary measure to guarantee a gold album.

Was Taylor Hicks hanging with a hooker?

We don't quite get the obsession of Radar Magazine with Taylor Hicks (they seem to know more about his sex life than the creepy obsessed Soul Patrolers), but they let us all in on a possible tidbit. Their speculation is that the girl who was pictured romping on the beach with Taylor a little while back may actually be an escort. Taylor truly is the VFTW winner in every sense of the word, and we love it, though we're sure even he can get some without paying for it. But hey, let the man enjoy his hookers! After suffering through a traumatizing stint on AI and being forced to sing awful karaoke songs, you might need a high priced ho to cry on too. (Picture from Splash News)

American Idol 5

Posted by thefunnystone on Thursday, June 01, 2006 at 10:00 AM EDT

American Idol 5 ended up being one of the worst seasons of American Idol ever! We started off the season by supporting the hilarious Brenna Gethers, loveable Bobby Bennett, and strange face-making David Radford. Next, we set our sights on Chicken Little, Mr. Kevin Covais, in the last round of the semifinals. Kevin miraculously made it into the top 12 with our help, and then he sailed through to the top 11 with his hysterical performance of "Part Time Lover". Buzz for the website grew again, as news outlets around the country blamed VFTW for Kevin's seemingly impossible stay in the competition. The following week, Kevin was voted out and VFTW set its sights on the untalented Kellie Pickler. Her ridiculously dumb sayings and naive act were perfect for our cause. Kellie progressively got worse each week, singing subpar versions of "Suds in the Bucket" and "Walking After Midnight." Then, Kellie had the balls to go all out and make VFTW proud with her slutty rendition of "Bohemian Rhapsody." Not content to stop there, Kellie then butchered "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered" and "Unchained Melody," all the while making stupid comments about spinach salads and ballsies. She was unchained from the competition in the top 6 and VFTW set its sights on the wacky Taylor Hicks. With his wacky wardrobe, crazy facial tics and spasms, and his hate for Simon Cowell, we knew that Taylor was perfect for the cause. That week, he gave VFTW a shoutout by singing "Play That Funky Music" and spasming around the stage. In the top 4, Chris Daughtry, who many people thought would win, was miraculously voted out of the competition in another hysterical moment reminiscent of Scott Savol and Constantine. It was a gigantic VFTW victory that helped our man sail to the next round. The following week, each constestant received almost 1/3 of the votes, showing that VFTW's votes may have been what kept Taylor safe that week. With the Soul Patrol and VFTW behind Taylor, there was no way he would lose in the end. He ended up winning the entire competition.
