Gwen Stefani and some other guy from No Doubt are mentoring the top 8 for the 1980's theme week. This is actually good news. If you remember Gwen Stefani's involvement last year, she dressed the season 10 women up as tacky hookers and it ended up getting Pia Toascano eliminated. And if you remember way back to season 6 when one of the themes was literally Songs Gwen Stefani Likes (seriously), we got the gem in the video above. So basically, everything Gwen Stefani touches turns to shit. And we couldn't be more excited. Please, please help make this season interesting, Gwen.

This shit is BANANAS! Remember how we told you Gwen Stefani would be singing during an episode of Idol in March? Well the awfulness gets even better! Pulse and Z100 are reporting that the last week of March (top 10 week, we believe) will be completely dedicated the vocal vomit that is Gwen Stefani's music. The contestants will get to choose from Gwen's overplayed No Doubt songs or her awful solo music. That's right, one of the worst singers in the history of the world has a whole week dedicated to her music. This will be the greatest week in VFTW history, no doubt. Can you imagine the Idols singing "Wind It Up" and "Hollaback Girl"? We can, and it's going to be a train wreck of epic proportions!

In other updates, it's rumored that Gwen Stefani will be singing her single "The Sweet Escape" on the March 28 episode of Idol. Expect a VFTW victory that eclipses even the worst contestant that week.

Also, our "friends" at Idolforums have posted who they've heard are the contestants who have definitely made the top 24 voting rounds. Want to know who they've pegged so far? Keep reading...
