In the worst marketing decision of the 21st century, a company named Beckley has apparently decided to use Syesha Mercado, Carly Smithson, and Brooke White in their new commercial. We found pictures of the commercial at Entertainment Hotline. How Carly made it into a commercial that isn't about anti-nausea medication is beyond us, but we fully expect sales at this store we've never heard of to plummet even lower. What would be a more appropriate commercial for these 3? Let us know in the comments.
Vote for the Worst has raised $2500 for Relay for Life and the American Cancer Society this year, but we'd like to do one more thing to help out. We're starting a charity auction with 6 great items that you can bid on where 100% of the proceeds will go to help the fight against cancer.

Well that's no fun! Brooke helped us take out CarlyPlant, in the amazing results show last week, a true VFTW victory. But as soon as we said hello, we had to say goodbye. It was a great, crazy few weeks, filled with awesome VFTWness. But now, we move on. Probably to Jason, right? No poll is necessary this week as there aren't many choices left. Leave a comment and let us know what you think. Or give us a call at the radio show (on live now!) and tell us who we should vote for. The show's not over till the fat lady sings... and Carly won't be back until the finale!
To vote for Brooke this week, dial 1-866-IDOLS-03 or 1-866-IDOLS-08 as much as you can. You can also text 'VOTE' to 5703. "I'm a Believer" was awesome in its head-bopping awkwardness, one of her best (worst) ever and definitely the worst of the night. Her second was better but the squeaking and shaking was still characteristically Brooke. And Paula's slip-up to prove that the show is scripted? PRICELESS. This show is derailing faster than you can say "canceled before season 8." Oh, this is so bad! We must help Brooke get to next week, as it's rumored to be iTunes top 100 week and that would be CLASSSIC!
CARLY'S GONE!!!! Oh this is too delicious. Thanks to everyone who helped us vote for Brooke this week to make this magical moment possible. The season is finally interesting for a week.
Carly is gone!!!! YAY!!!!! Brooke wasn't even in the bottom 2. VFTW VICTORY! The icing on the cake was Carly looking pissed as Syesha sang, complaining to Ryan about being in the bottom 2. Go home. No one likes you, Sanjaya hating failure. Let's celebrate this bitch home on the radio show. Listen at 10 PM Eastern, 9 PM Central. And you can call 218-486-1300 and put in the code 556833 to talk live. Check back in this post an hour before the show for a "listen live" link that you can click on to listen to us on the All Digital Radio Network.
Brooke White is awkward television at its best! 1-866-IDOLS-03 or 1-866-IDOLS-09, you can call either number (call the least busy number), or text 'VOTE' to 5703. She again messed up the song, stopped everything, and started again because it flustered her so much. Imagine her at the finale. "THIS IS MY.... Wait... I need to start over. Guys. I can't." The silence was deafening as Paula struggled to think of a compliment. Lots of silence. It was amazingly awkward, and a true VFTW victory. Brooke must forget the words every week for maximum entertainment potential. Thanks for not letting us down, Brooke! Make sure to vote as much as you can for her, because when you forget your words for the 3rd time in a season, sympathy starts running dry. So let's keep it from running dry, get the waterworks flowing. Vote for Brooke for the whole 2 hours!
Apparently Guitar Hero is sponsoring the Idol tour this summer. Whatever. The fascinating part of the article is this picture.
Everyone remember this when you think about trying out for AI8. You have to do this. And again... Carly manages to look like an idiot in every picture she appears in.
