All you Fanjayas it is time to kill yourselves celebrate, because Sanjaya Malakar’s EP, Dancing to the Music In My Head is coming out on January 20th!!
What sucks is that the music sound is coming out of his mouth and not STAYING in his head!!
For those of you who don't remember the terrible American Idol season 6 singer, here's a little song to bring back your memory...
...Ahhhh THE HORROR!!
Fantasia (remember her??) was spotted the other night attending Jermaine Dupri and BET's Hip Hop Awards Pre-Party in Tucker, Georgia... Umm... WTF is she wearing?! I still remember Simon Cowell's face after she performed on American Idol last year... It was priceless!!
Anyways, I give her a 3/10 - CLICK HERE to rate her for yourself on HotOrNot.com!!
Here's some exclusive photos & a video of Jennette McCurdy and American Idol runner-up, David Archuleta on the set of Nickelodeon's iCarly yesterday...
In the episode, Archuleta plays a contestant in a talent competition called America Sings...
...I wonder if he can act as well as he sings??
We all knew American Idol runner-up, David Archuleta was goin' to be big, but not THIS big!! Covering 12 acres, Archuleta, along with the phrase, "Archuleta 4 President," is cut into the cornfield at the 2008 Cornbelly's Corn Maze and Pumpkin Fest....
The maze's founder, Brett Herbst explained the creation earlier today,
"We really thought of Obama and McCain at first, but everyone we talked to was sick of the candidates... Then we said, 'Let's do Archuleta."'
I wonder if David would be able to find his way through the maze... Without his father!!
Clay Aiken has finally admitted he is gay (as if you didn't know) in the new issue of People Magazine...
Good for you Clay - Such a shock to us all!! Clay's story, along with pictures of his son Parker are featured in next week's issue... I wonder which magazine is goin' to get the exclusive on Lindsay Lohan's coming out story?!
Ryan Seacrest and Randy Jackson raised eyebrows on earlier today when The Rachael Ray Show released a promotional still of the American Idol personalities sharing a snack during a taping for the new season of Rachael’s Emmy-winning daytime series...
Fill In The Blank: Ryan likes Randy because _____________________!!
As I reported a couple days ago, American Idol will have 4 judges this upcoming season!! New judge, Kara DioGuardi met up with fellow judges, Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul, and Randy Jackson for the auditions in New York City yesterday...
So I ask you - Is Kara HOT or NOT??

She's not really my type... I give her a 7/10 - CLICK HERE to rate her for yourself!!
Some BIG American Idol news today!! The FOX show (for the first time ever) is adding a permanent fourth judge... Hot/sexy songwriter, Kara DioGuardi has officially been added!!
Creator and executive producer Simon Fuller said, "We are turning the heat up on 'Idol' this year and are thrilled to welcome Kara to the judges' table... She is a smart, sassy lady, and one of America's most successful songwriters. We know she will bring a new level of energy and excitement to the show."
I can't wait for the new season - Paula must HATE that another woman is being added!!
Kevin Covais aka Chicken Little from season five of American Idol was rushed to the hospital this evening due to a problem with his diabetes... His rep. reports that Kevin got sick, but that he'll be fine and out of the hospital in soon...
Kevin is currently promoting his new flick, College, which comes out next Friday... Get better soon dude!!
Have a listen to American Idol runner-up, David Archuleta's 1st single titled, Crush... It premiered on Z100 this morning...
It's a good song, but it doesn't beat winner, David Cook's first single!!
Season 6 American Idol contender, Melinda Doolittle has signed an exclusive record deal with Hi Fi Recordings...
The new album will hit stores this fall according to our insiders!!
American Idol runner-up, David Archuleta did the weather report on MyFoxUtah yesterday...
...I really have no comment about this!!
Unlike his nervous performance the other night at the Laker's vs. Celtics game, American Idol winner, David Cook was ON his game last night on The Tonight Show...
I really do like that song!! Listen to the studio version here.
American Idol runner-up, David Archuleta posted his first video blog last night thanking all his fans... Obviously he saw our post about David Cook and wanted to steal the spotlight!! Just kiddin'...
American Idol winner, David Cook was seen singing the National Anthem at the Lakers vs. Celtics game earlier tonight... Poor guy should just stick to singing rock & roll... By the look on his face during the song you could tell her was nervous and mad at himself once he finished the anthem...
Rock on David... Rock on...
Taylor Hicks who was a winner a couple seasons ago on American Idol is now Teen Angel in the new Broadway show, Grease... Taylor + Broadway = Career Over!!
I gotta rate poor Taylor a 1/10... The only thing cool about him is the fact that he's a soul music singer... He looks like an old man trying to be a "cool"!! What do you rate him?? CLICK HERE and add him to you Hot List if you're a fan still!!
Good idea - Wrong timing!! It was announced Monday that American Idol runner-up, David Archuleta would perform at a "thank you" concert on Friday night at the E Center as a token of gratitude for his Utah fans... Tickets would be sold this week, and the proceeds would go to charity... But as good as that sounds, it apparently didn't mesh with "the man"...
Last night, Archie's agent, Roger Widynowski said there would be no concert due to contractual obligations between the 17-year-old and American Idol... Starting Saturday, Archuleta and the other Idol contestants will begin touring the country as part of the show's summer concerts!!
American Idol winner, David Cook was on Live with Regis and Kelly this morning and he spoke about his date the other night with season 2 contestant, Kimberley Caldwell...
He also performed his new single, Time of My Life, which is currently number one on iTunes!!

It's back to Toronto today for me... L.A. / American Idol was such a fun time - I hope you all enjoyed the pictures and videos...

The Jonas Brothers will be performing their hit song S.O.S. on the season 7 finale of American Idol next Wed. night... But that's not all, the Jonas Brothers spoke out earlier today about how they wanna find some summer lovin'...
Joe, with his brother's agreeing said, "Summer romances are good. We all went to camp a lot, and one of the best things about it was that we would always meet girls there. I love natural beauty with cool sense of style who stands out a little because she's happy being who she is. For me, it's when a girl has confidence. And it always touches me when a girl is encouraging, it really makes you feel she honestly cares about you."
All three boys are single, I guess we'll see what the summer brings... Stay tuned next week for full American Idol coverage on Isthishappening.com as we'll be live in Hollywood for the finale!!

Umm... okay??
American Idol's Syesha sang If I Ain't Got You earlier tonight... However, she ALREADY sang that song years ago as a contestant on The One... Way to be ORIGINAL!!

David Archuleta’s vocal coach, Dean Kaelin, was on The Early Show this morning talking about the reports that David’s father, Jeff, has been banned from rehearsals by American Idol... He says that there are NO family problems and that American Idol asked Jeff to not be backstage in order to be more fair to David Cook and Syesha Mercado who do not have someone behind-the-scenes providing guidance & support... Hmm...
Do you believe it??
American Idol reject/cry-baby, Brooke White now stars in this "video" about her failure on A.I.... The joys of being voted off!!
Video courtesy of Best Week Ever!!
Jeff Archuleta, the father of 17-year-old American Idol contestant, David Archuleta, has reportedly been banned from the show’s set according to TMZ... Inside sources say, David's dad has been attempting to interfere with the entire production for weeks now, even nagging the producers, band, vocal coaches and other contestants...
"The final straw came this week, when Jeff wanted to change the lyrics to David’s first song, ‘Stand By Me.’ Jeff insisted on adding a verse from Sean Kingston’s hit, ‘Beautiful Girls.’ Producers sent him an e-mail telling him the lyrics could not be changed. They were beyond pissed when David sang the song with Kingston’s lyrics during the live show.
We’re told by changing the lyrics, it created problems with the song’s publisher and cost AI a lot of money. Jeff was ordered to sit with AI lawyers on Wednesday, who told him he was ‘banned from being in the rooms where David was learning or rehearsing his songs."
So basically, his dad CAN sit in the audience during the live shows, but he is not allowed anywhere near the backstage area... I wonder how well all this will go over with David... Hmmm... I still says he wins!!
Jason Castro totally took the whole American Idol thing as a joke... He didn't care to get his lucky shot, and it proved over the last few weeks... Jason was given the boot last night finally, leaving Syesha, David C. and David A. as the top three!! Check out Jason screwin' up a couple nights ago while singin' Mr. Tambourine Man...
How stoned out-of-it does he seem in this interview...
It's gonna be a David-David final... Just you wait and see!!
Female American Idol runner-up from seasons ago, Clay Aiken was seen at the Virgin Megastore in Times Square yesterday signing copies of his new album, On My Way Here... Does anyone really still care about this person?? I never thought he was any good...

I give him a 0/10... What do you rate him?? If for SOME REASON you think he's "Hot" than you can add him to your Hot List by clicking here.
The American Idol contestants are in Las Vegas this week to drum up publicity for the final four, and the worst of the four Jason Castro continues to show why he's the weakest link... In this clip, he tries bonding with a dolphin, even shoving his dreads out of his face to steal a kiss, but is quickly spooked and runs away like a lil baby...
Seems nobody likes him but the dogs!! Have a look at this video from his high school where he's MAKING OUT with a dog... Ahhh!!
Can you guess who this high school grad is based on their yearbook picture??
CLICK HERE to find out!!
American Idol contestant, Syesha Mercado put down her hair this week and it might have saved her from goin' home!! I don't know about you but I never found her very hot up until a couple of nights ago when she revealed this new "look"...
I rate her an 8/10 and I hope she sticks around one more week until Jason gets the boot... CLICK HERE and rate her and the other American Idol contestants!!
Natasha Bedingfield was on American Idol earlier tonight and she was HOT HOT HOT!! I love her music, and I love her personality... There's not much more to say...
The other hot blonde I'm goin' to talk about is my future wife, Carrie Underwood... Check out her new music video for Last Name...
Now if I could only get these 2 blondes together!! Hmmm...
Finally!! It's about time America got it right... Brooke White was sent packin' earlier tonight on American Idol [insert tears here]... The next to go will either be Syesha Mercado or Jason Castro!!
Next week's theme is Songs that Inspired Rock 'n Roll!! Can't wait!!
On American Idol earlier tonight, after the FIRST performances from the top 5, the judges were asked to comment... After looking down at her notes, Paula commented on both of Jason's performances... Only problem was, Jason hadn't performed for a SECOND TIME yet... Then she tried to cover it up by saying she had meant David Cook's performance, except the comments had been negative... Hmm... Somebody wrote notes durin' dress rehearsals!!
Anyways, based on tonight's performances, I think Jason or Brooke are the next to go tomorrow night!!
Carly Smithson was voted off in a shockin' American Idol earlier tonight... I really thought Jason was going to get the boot...
Next week, the final 5 American Idol's will work with singer, Neil Diamond!! CLICK HERE to vote for your favourites!!
