Just in case you haven't seen it yet
Vote for the Stoned Supports Jason Castro
You knew it was coming. Everyone's favorite pothead is our new pick. The way that he doesn't seem to care what happens on the show is so refreshing, and his "I don't care" attitude must be annoying the others by now. Which of course makes us cheer. And of course, Paula and the gang tried to get him out this week with the scripted comments. Could it be any more obvious that he's supposed to go home next? So we say, let's give it the old college try. Pizza pockets and beer pong for all!

The Truth About the Contestants of American Idol 7
When American Idol debuted in 2002, its supposed goal was to find the best undiscovered talent in America. Singers like Kelly Clarkson and Clay Aiken, who had dreams of stardom but never had the connections, were catapulted to megastardom. The producers found diamonds in the rough and launched their careers. But a disturbing trend has surfaced with the spoiled contestants of American Idol 7 – they’re no longer even remotely undiscovered talent. A large percentage of them are failed singers and entertainers who have already had their shot at fame. Yet Idol thinks that repackaging these failures is a good idea to make us watch their show. Gone are the days where you or your friends could try out for Idol and make it big. Now you have to already have connections. Read on to find out more about how this year’s show will just be a boring hash of recycled pseudo-celebrities who weren’t good enough to make it the first time around. And keep checking back as this article is updated almost every day with new information.

This video of Jason has been going around the internet for a while, and now that he's an official VFTW pick, we can totally embrace it. Jason is just having a blast, playing his guitar and messing up while feeling pretty good. At around 1:00 in, he talks about being sauced. Did you just have a pasta dinner, Jason? Well we urge you to bring this to your performances this week and just give us an entertaining show. You know you want to! Can some of his fans ship him some extra strong "oregano" for his sauce this week? Thanks much.
