The final was last night -- and Paul won! If you youtube search for "britains got talent" and "paul" you'll be able to find all three of his performances -- the audition, the semifinal and the final. He sang Nessun Dorma for the final, too. I also recommend watching Bessie and Connie's performances. They are 12 and 6 respectively and just sweet things. Bessie's final performance was a bit of pitch (think it was loud and her adrenaline was through the roof), but they are both talented little girls. Simon told Paul he would be in a recording studio this week!

Jordin Sparks is Living The Idol Dream
quote:In addition to rehearsals for the tour, which will feature music not performed this past season on the show, Jordin has already begun reviewing songs for her album. "I actually got a couple of songs the other day," she reveals. "I love them. I am so excited about them. I haven't gone and recorded anything yet. We are still in the starting stages of it." That means Jordin is going to have to fly back and forth between Los Angeles and the cities where she is performing to get the job done. "I am just praying that my voice stays up," she adds.
--- Former 'Idol' finalist Melinda Doolittle going to Africa with Laura Bush
quote:"Traveling to Africa has always been a life-long dream of mine," said Doolittle. "I am very excited to travel with the First Lady and Malaria No More and to show the impact the viewers of American Idol have had through their help and support during Idol Gives Back."
--- 'Idol 6' runner-up Blake Lewis already in studio recording debut album
quote:"I've been working for such a long time writing a lot of songs in different genres," Lewis told TV Guide on Wednesday. "The first album is really a testament of who you are." Similar to Idol sixth-season champ Jordin Sparks, Lewis finds himself with a busy summer ahead as he's working on his debut album while at the same time preparing for American Idol's 2007 concert tour, which kicks-off Friday, July 6 in Sunrise, FL and spans 56 dates and 35 states over the course of two-and-a-half months. Lewis said he hit the studio on Monday, June 18 in Los Angeles to begin laying the groundwork for his debut album, with electronic musician BT already signed on as a producer, according to TV Guide. "I just recorded my first track last night," Lewis told TV Guide. "I've already written seven songs." In addition, Lewis said fellow beat-boxer Doug E. Fresh -- with whom he performed a memorable duet of the rapper's 1986 hit "The Show" during Idol 6's finale -- is currently "in talks" to beatbox on one of the album's tracks. However Lewis' eagerness to perform with others from the industry doesn't stop with Fresh. "There's a couple of emcees I'd like to work with," he told TV Guide. "I'm going to have four or five people beatbox between tracks." Lewis also doesn't want to just collaborate with some of his musical inspirations, as he's planning to pay them homage through the album's sound. "I'd classify it as electro-funk-soul-pop if you need to label it," he told TV Guide. "I really love the sounds of the '80s so I hope to ring some of that back. I'm really inspired by electronic music." Lewis told TV Guide his debut album can be expected to drop before the end of the year "because they want it out by Thanksgiving or Christmas."
Here are a couple of articles about the top three. The tour starts next Friday July 6 for 56 dates. The idols are going to be exhausted by the end of this tour.

DH and I are going to the AI concert in Portland Maine tonight. I've read mostly good reviews of it and seen a few youtube videos. It should be fun.

Just out of curiosity, why do Constantine things keep getting posted in this thread? Why aren't they posted in his season's thread?

Jordin Sparks' Debut Has Weakest-Ever Opening For An 'American Idol' Champ: What Went Wrong? No easy answer for why singer failed to catch fire in first week. So far, Jordin Sparks is making Taylor Hicks look like Jay-Z. In December last year, Hicks had the dubious distinction of landing the weakest debut week on the Billboard albums chart by an "Idol" winner at that point when his self-titled album — which had stood as the lowest-selling debut by an "Idol" winner so far with less than 700,000 copies moved — bowed at #2 on sales of 298,000. But Sparks, the youngest winner in the history of the show, bested that dubious distinction this week when her own eponymous debut squeaked in at #10 on the Billboard 200 on sales of just over 119,000. Sparks appeared to have everything going for her: a winning smile; a powerful, versatile voice; strong stage presence; a host of hot producers lined up for her album (Stargate, Underdogs, Bloodshy & Avant); and a label deal with Jive, which has a track record of breaking young R&B/pop superstars, including Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake. So what went wrong?

Yes, I don't understand why American Idol isn't backing Jordin. She looks on paper to be the perfect AI -- she is young, beautiful and peppy -- and in a market that, except for Hannah Montana, seems to be bereft of young women for little girls to model themselves after the lack of promotion is puzzling.

Yeah I haven't heard or seen anything about Jordan at all. I only saw her last week during the parade. But that was it. I don't even know what genre of music her cd is.

ITA about the lack of AI support for Jordan. And I do not like her new single either (i love you like a tatoo?? wth??), which is a shame b/c they could have done so much with her and her talent. It's not to late but I think they may have blown it!
