Seamonkey, the difference is JLo needs the exposure and Stephen doesn't.

I doubt her husband's career needs the push...(from Wikipedia) since he is the the top selling tropical salsa artist of all time. The two-time Grammy and three-time Latin Grammy-winner has sold more than 30 million albums worldwide. He is best known for his Latin salsa numbers and ballads. He has been married to Jennifer Lopez since June 4, 2004.

Anthony has won numerous awards and his achievements have been honored through various recognitions. He was the recipient of the 2009 Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute (CHCI) Chair's Award. He also received the "2009 CHCI Chair's Lifetime Achievement Award" on September 16, 2009.[1] As of 2009, he ties with Víctor Manuelle for having the most number-one singles in the Billboard Tropical Songs chart.

Anthony is a minority owner/limited partner of the Miami Dolphins NFL team.[2]

I apologize if I violated the rules...I tried to give the website the credit it is due???

I have loved Marc Anthony's voice for a long time (or at least a decade or so before he married JLo). Sea - don't know if you saw Zorro with Antonio Banderas but Marc Anthony and a great Aussie female singer, Tina Arena, did the theme song. It's really beautiful:

I've seen JLo and Marc Antony singing on some awards show together. He sings circles around her. He has a much better voice. She, of course, is way more beautiful than he is and she started as a dancer before she became an actress/singer. Anybody else remember her from In Living Color? She was one of the Fly Girls. (I know. I'm old.) I still think JLo is stunningly beautiful, especially when you consider she's in her 40's. I always love to see what she's wearing or how they've done her makeup. I think she totally outshines Randy and Steven at the judges' table.

I remember watching one of those "E True Hollywood" stories and they said that he had been in love with her for years (despite either being married or having long-term relationships with other women, at least one of which was his baby mama) and when she finally was available (after her breakup with Ben Affleck perhaps) he wasted no time in pursuing her. Kind of romantic (except for the dumped baby mama part).

Sorry, I meant no disresect to the poster, just to Randy, a little. He said before that Ellen would return. but not.
If JLo gets offered some top movies, I think she will be gone. Steven is an odd duck, who knows what he is going to do, this season seemed to cause a problem between his band mates and Steven. I can't believe they did not appear on the finale considering they have a tour coming up.

It isn't really a matter of liking any of them or their performances or not.. I just watch this show for the young SINGERS, not for the judges performances, etc. Just like apparently something planned by one of the young singers was bumped so that U2? could perform in hopes of helping to resuscitate Spiderman on Broadway..

========

But today the buzz is that Jennifer isn't sure she's returning.. she LOVES IT, LOVES IT but she is really busy now. LOL.. could be she isn't returning or is just angling for more money, I suppose.

W T F?

After just winning the American Idol competition, Scotty McCreery wants to distance himself from the show and be known as more than just an Idol winner. But isn’t it a little early to start bashing the show that just made you famous?

In an interview with The Boot.com, Scotty says, “I want to go down the same road that Carrie Underwood did . . . kinda separate myself from ‘Idol’ . . . because when you think of Carrie Underwood now, you don’t think ‘“American Idol” Season Four winner,’ you just think ‘Carrie Underwood.’

But Scotty just won, even though a lot of people didn’t want him to.. Isn’t it a little too soon to talk about separating from Idol? He will probably be forced to ‘explain’ himself soon and say that he is grateful for the show

I never felt Carrie did that.

I don't think so either, RSLover. In fact, a couple of years ago she had a concert here and some friends of mine went to it and she acknowledged that had it not been for Idol, she wouldn't be where she is today.

I've always thought that Carrie is one of the most enthusiastic of the Idol winners. She has appeared many times on the show since winning. She was on the finale this year!

But maybe people are misunderstanding Scotty. Maybe he is just saying that Carrie has become so successful that some people no longer think of her as an Idol winner but as a superstar.

I just saw where JLo and Mark Anthony are splitting up. I wish both of them the best. I am guessing that perhaps her marriage difficulties played a part in her uncertainty as to whether or not she should do Idol next year.

Jimmer, I think you have it right. I don't think he meannt literally having nothing to do with Idol. I think he meant it more in how he will grow in his career.

For some of the past idol contestants, they really have little or no career identity aside from American Idol. Carrie has progressed to the point that she is more than just an Idol winner. She is a star in her own right.

I think that is what Scotty is aiming for and it is what he should aim for. I don't see Scotty as a person who would not appreciate what Idol has done for him and I imagine he will always support it. Anything else would go against his "raising."

Has it been posted somewhere that all three judges are officially returning? JLo was the last to confirm but she became official recently.

Oh wait - I can't find a confirmation. Apparently it was reported as fact and a few "news" services picked up on it. Naturally.

But I can't find anything official. Oopsie!

Apparently Scotty is not going to be one of the Idol winners who is never heard from again.

I'm not a big country music fan but I like his debut song. He has a lovely distinctive tone and I'm glad that the first song he released was an upbeat country song.

I just like him...he seems to be a great young man and genuinely pleased with what has been given to him...plus I'm a sucker for the low baritone voice!
