Frenchie got a gig as a reporter on Entertainment tonight. They had her sing a little last night and Queen Latifah introduced her.

Good for her.

I read in Entertainment Weekly that the guy who founded savefrenchie.com also went to New York last week for the peace marches. So I take back what I said earlier (even if it got deleted) about some people caring more about TV than anything else.

I worked in the record biz for years. I would say that the whole Frenchie getting booted was nothing but a publicity stunt, and the necessary people brought her to the show and generated the buzz with her exposure on AI. Then, they ran with the beginning of Frenchie's "new life" once the buzz began. The timing is so perfect.

Yeah she gets to live now - instead of surviving. I am sure she will have a fantastic future.

Good for Frenchie to get some gigs. As far as signing the petition in the hopes it will bring her back on AI, it's like peeing in the ocean.

Crazydog, I agree, but it is the only way to show support of Frenchie that will get the producers' attention that we want her to succeed. This has probably helped her a lot with getting the new gigs.

I wanna hear Frenchie team up w/ 50 Cent in a song.
Yeah! Give us a duo with Frenchie & 50 Cent!

um who/what is 50 Cent?

50 cent is a rap singer. don't know the name of his latest song, but all through it he says "it's your birthday".

Thanks Jbean. I mainly listen to country so don't know alot of current stars outside of that genre. [OH my wouldn't Paula be proud of me using that word!] It's not that I don't like other types of music [ok so I don't care for Opera or Rap] I just don't listen to much but country.

50 Cent (or "Fiddysent" as the local DJ calls him) is the latest rap sensation. His songs are all over the place right now - he's got FOUR songs in rotation on the local station and his CD just came out a month or so ago. The one that gets played the most is "In the Club".

He's brand new and already overexposed.

Sigh. If Frenchie were still in the competition I would actually be excited about this show - I'd be eagerly anticipating the Frenchie-Ruben showdown. Now it's just kind of boring.

Thanks Crazydog. Sometimes I feel so out of it because I have no idea who people are talking about, yet I still like AI. Usually I just sit and wonder but since I liked Frenchie I thought I'd ask.

Imagine what Frenchie would be doing right now in the competition. It would actually be a little suspenseful as to who the winner would be. Too bad. But I'm glad that she is making things happen for her - I wonder what Simon thinks about her "image" right now?

"I wonder what Simon thinks about her "image" right now?"

Well considering that Simon is always telling Clay he has a "Broadway" voice, and not what American Idol is looking for I doubt Simon would say too much, except maybe that he knew she wasn't Idol type.

GOOD LUCK FRENCHIE!

I've seen Rent 3 times on Broadway and know exactly the part she'll play. Not only does she hold a solo part of "Seasons of Love", she'll play a vagrant coat-seller - with some great lines!! She's perfect for it. All 3 times I've seen it, the woman had the exact same look and sound as Frenchie.

Way to go!!

Ruben just said that he wants to record with Frenchie and that she was the best female vocalist out there. He and Clay are going to go see her tomorrow night in Rent.
