The Idol season 10 contestants all seem to be getting record deals like no other season before (except maybe season 5). So hey, putting entertaining and fun people on the show really does pay off, huh? VFTW favorite Naima Adedapo is the latest to get a record deal. She's been signed to Peak Records and will have a 3 song EP produced by Warryn Campbell, who has produced for Kanye West and Trey Songz. Not too shabby. Only 2 words seem appropriate for this announcment: BOOM FIRE!

The American Idol tour is usually even duller than the show but this year there's a contestant adding some Boom Fire! to the proceedings. Check VFTW's Naima Adedapo around the 2:05 mark of this video where she either goes into an African Dance or has an epileptic seizure, highlighted by a flip that lands into a split! And Naima does all this while almost convincing us she's not lip syncing. BOOM FIRE!

We love Naima Adedapo and we love strippers, so we're happy to hear that Naima may have been a stripper at Rickey's Strip Club in Milwaukee. Rickey.org says that Star Magazine says a patron of the strip club recognized Naima as someone who danced there in 2005. No matter if it's true or not, we're excited that Naima is makin' that money on the Idol tour. Love her.

JoesPlace has released 18 of the top 24 and also named 5 people who were cut (the site seems to be overloaded with traffic!). Jessica Cunningham and Eryn Kelly were cut (no shock, we haven't seen them), Hoillie Cavanagh was cut (boring), and John Wayne Schulz was cut (haha, frauen) but the big news is that Chris Medina was cut. This was brilliant on the producers' part. Chris would've gotten to the end of the show without even trying based on the pimping of his handicapped fiancee, so kicking him out now saved us months of agony and boredom. Nice call, Nigel!

1. Ashthon Jones
