American Idol Season 7's First Scandal

American Idol | entertainment | famous | people | singer

American Idol Singers like Philadelphia auditioner Kristy Lee Cook, who back in 2001, was signed to Arista Nashville and repped by LeAnn Rimes' former manager, or Australian import Michael Johns (formerly Michael Lee), who fronted a band called The Rising and was set to release a debut on Maverick Records in 2003 (back when Madonna still ran the label). And there's another hopeful from across the pond, Irish-born Carly Hennessy, who in 1999, signed a six-album deal with MCA Records. She was the focus of a Wall Street Journal article detailing the high risk — and cost — of breaking a new pop artist. In the piece, it was estimated that the label spent around $2.2 million on Hennessy, pairing her up with proven songwriters and producers (like Gregg Alexander, who's worked extensively with Simon Fuller clients the Spice Girls) only to see her debut album sell less than 400 copies.

Should the media be giving Paris Hilton so much attention?

Celebrity | fame | famous | gas scooters | Media | Paris Hilton | Prison | public | technology

Yes, simply because that is the nature of the moment and the age we live in. We cannot turn the clocks back to more 'sensible' times when information was controlled, and only certain people with questionable motives set the public agenda and decide appropriate behaviour for all. We are in new technologically dominating times and we have to get over it. The media revolution we are experiencing, especially with its easy access to instant news, makes concentration on public figures one of the more unpleasant side effects of our new age. But like anything else, media coverage is audience driven. If people did not want to hear a thing about Paris Hilton, if she had no fans or anyone interested in her, she would have faded as a distant memory a long time ago, just like many other famous figures who have long since come and gone.

Brittney and Kevin

I've seen several posts today about Brittney Spears, and I wanted to throw in my 2 cents.

I don't know if anyone ever watched their show (chaotic?), but I watched one episode and that was enough.

This kevin dude is such a loser. He already had 2 kids by a previous girlfriend. He has player wrote all over his forehead. He clearly just married her for the money, while she thought she was getting the love of her life. Now, they have 2 kids. So what's going to happen next? He will find someone else to hook up with and all four of his kids will be there for visitation. This man is going to end up having 10 kids by the time he's 40.

Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe

When I saw on tv that these two were getting a divorce, it was a total shocker to me. This couple was an awesome couple. They seemed happy together, and it wasn't like their marriage was in the tabloids every week like Brittney Spears or Jessica Simpson.

Reese was pretty young when she got married by hollywood standards. She has 2 beautiful children. She is so little herself she almost seems like a child. I love her roles. She did an excellent performance in Walk the Line.

The Beatles: "They were just like you and me"

One of the more memorable characters whom I've come across was Michael, a diminutive Englishman who was one of our staff at a record store where I worked for several years. He was twenty years older than most of us twenty-somethings and, because of his age and demeanor, had our respect like few other grown-ups. He was akin to that one peculiar uncle we all seem to have.
