American Idol Updates
Kris Allen - Live Like We're Dying Music Video
Danny Gokey - It's Only
Oh God, Danny Gokey has a single. It's terrible as you'd think it would be, trying to be inspirational but sounding corny as all hell.
Syesha Mercado on The Wendy Williams Show
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?
Adam Lambert's "Time for Miracles" Completely Falls Off the Billboard Hot 100
As if the #50 debut last week wasn't embarrassing enough, Adam Lambert's "Time for Miracles" has completely fallen off of the Billboard Hot 100 after 1 week. That's right, people hate the song so much, it just completely disappeared. Just goes to show the low #50 debut was completely due to Sparkle Cow purchases, as no one else buys Adam's music. Hate to say we told you so, but...
Adam Lambert Already Has a New Boyfriend
That fast, huh? According to Star Magazine, Adam Lambert has moved on from Drake LaBry in a matter of minutes and has found himself a new man: singer/songwriter Ferras Alqaisi. You may remember Ferras because he sang that stupid song "Hollywood's Not America" that was featured in the Hollywood rounds of American Idol a few years back. Now, we're just waiting for the tell-all from Drake about what a loser Adam is. Come on, Drake. Open up to any media outlet you choose and spill.
Blake Lewis - Heartbreak on Vinyl Video
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)
John and Edward To Perform the "Ghostbusters" Theme on This Week's X Factor
This is awesome news! Digital Spy is reporting that our favorite terrorizing twins, John and Edward, are performing the "Ghostbusters" theme as their song selection on the upcoming episode of the X Factor. And yes, they'll be wearing the Ghostbuster outfits. We hope this is true. John and Edward are now in their 5th week of competition. One more week, and they'll be tied with Sanjaya's VFTW record of longevity.
Late Halloween Scare: Listen to Snippets of Adam Lambert's Upcoming Album
If Halloween didn't frighten you enough, Amazon has Adam Lambert's album preview up so you can experience a new form of horror. The lowlights are the hilariously bad "Music Again", campy "Strut", terribly cheesy Broadway sounding "Soaked", and his ridiculous sounding vocals on "Fever". Adam's voice sounds absolutely horrendous on the ballads, which are by far the weakest tracks in the previews. We can say though that the album clearly has higher production values than the standard Idol rush job. And tracks like "Sleepwalker" and "Whataya Want From Me" would blend in easily to top 40 radio (if you can consider that a compliment). But will anyone be able to look past the stupid album cover to even listen to the music? Adam better count his lucky stars that people can now download the album anonymously or he'd have negative sales the first week.
Popeater premiered Kris's first video today. It's not bad, but what's the point in having a clock counting down if the numbers constantly jump around and nothing happens when it hits zero? Kind of anticlimactic, don't you think?
