In an incredibly smart move, Blake Lewis appears in 0% of the video. Apparently he realized making people look at him would sell no records. The tune is decent, but it's probably the worst lyrics he's ever written. (Via MJ's Big Blog)
Week 4 of the John and Edward debacle on England's X-Factor show continues, and it just keeps getting better. This week, John and Edward sing "We Will Rock You". They make up their own hilarious words, they lose their place in the middle of the song, they dance around confused, and the singing is as precious as ever. We love these guys and want to see them win! Let's hope they make it past the next vote. John and Edward are the latest British singing sensations. Since we know they're awesome and will stay in the competition, may we recommend "My Neck, My Back" for next week?
After a hilariously bad performance of "She Bangs", John and Edward were voted through to the next round on Britain's The X Factor. In the bottom 2 were two acts that the judges universally liked, which has apparently resulted in an emergency meeting of the producers. We just hope that John and Edward will stick around for weeks to come! VFTW Victory!
Kris Allen performed at a Miami Dolphins tailgate party and debuted some of his new songs. The clip above is low quality, but you can get an idea of what his original song "Can't Stay Away" sounds like. It's not bad. Certainly 100 times better than "Live Like We're Dying", so Who might have a chance of having a career yet. We shall see. (Via TopIdol)
Looks like Adam is going to be performing at the American Music Awards this year. Hopefully the venue's security has extra Twizzlers on hand to herd the Sparkle Cows. (Via MJ's Big Blog)

The soot all over his face suits him, since is covers up his nasty skin. If the world ends and everyone dies, can Adam go with them?
While we don't really care about the British show The X Factor, we have to applaud 2 performances from this week because they just can't be missed.
First, John and Edward perform "Oops I Did It Again". Yes, this is a real group of contestants on the show. It's like Sanjaya had a twin. They made it past this week too. Why doesn't American Idol realize that we want entertaining train wrecks like this?
And speaking of train wrecks, Whitney Houston's performance of "Million Dollar Bill" helps ease the pain we feel from missing Paula Abdul. Whitney's clearly messed up. The best parts are when her dress breaks in the middle of the song and she looks bewildered, and then when she can barely speak at the end.
Bravo this week, X Factor.
Is Syesha super short or is Wendy super tall? At least Wendy didn't pull out a slim jim and start lighting it on fire. Where's Joel McHale when you need him?
