Last years American Idol winner, Jordin Sparks has revealed that she used to have a crush on Simon Cowell…….didn’t we all?
While promoting her very average new single featured below, Sparks told Metro: “I think there was a time when I had a crush on Simon, but it was when I used to watch the show, not when I was on it.”
The singer added: “He’s very cute, but he’s already taken.”
Pop Queen, Madonna has commented that she doesn’t think she would have stood a chance if she had auditioned for American Idol when she was just starting out.
She told New York radio station Z100: “I did it the hard way. I had to teach myself how to play the drums, I had to get into a band. [I played] in crappy little clubs for years before anybody would even pay any attention to me. [ I had to] take my tape around to record companies and have them shut the door in my face. It took a long time. I came up the hard way.”
When asked about American Idol she said: Continue reading ‘Madonna Would Never Get Through American Idol‘ »
British composer, Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber is to jet off to America in two weeks time in order to make an appearance on US TV show, American Idol.
Lloyd Webber will appear on a live link-up from Las Vegas to the Los Angeles AI studios.
Sir Andrew is currently judging on BBC’s talent show, I’d Do Anything and he hinted to The Sun that the BBC may not have been too happy with his extra-curricular activities, saying: “I told them my dates and just said, ‘I’m going!’”
We were watching the American Idol results show this weekend and were really impressed with the American Idol finalists music video. Of course it only took about two minutes to find it on YouTube!
So here ya go, watch the twelve Idol finalists on the campaign trail in Ford’s new music video.
X Factor judge Simon Cowell has admitted that he has installed a telescope in his LA mansion so that he can spy on his rich and famous mansion.
Simon was inspired by the iconic seventies movie ‘10’, where Dudley Moore’s character did exactly the same thing.
He told The Mirror, “I saw that Dudley Moore film and it was great. Afterwards, I got a telescope installed in my kitchen so I can spy on people.
“I look out over the Hollywood Hills into my neighbours’ gardens. It’s an amazing view. It isn’t powerful enough to see into their homes - so you can’t see them in the shower - but you can see into their gardens.
“It’s great fun. I just like to keep an eye on what is happening.”
American Idol judge, Paula Abdul has revealed that she is thinking about adopting a baby in the next three to five years.
Abdul, 44, told Now: “I do [want children]. I’ll probably adopt because I think it’ll be in the next three to five years.
“I wouldn’t necessarily adopt from abroad like some celebs. I just want a healthy baby.”
However, this doesn’t mean that marriage is on the cards for Ms Abdul, as she admitted last week that she was in no rush to get hitched to boyfriend JT Torregiani.
American Idol judge, Paula Abdul has told People Magazine that she has no immediate plans to get hitched to her current boyfriend, JT Torregiani.
“I’m very sceptical about having to have a document that binds your love together,” the American Idol judge reportedly said.
“I know for him, marriage is an important thing, so it’s kind of one of those things I have to balance out.”
I think it is JT that needs to do the balancing out. After watching clips like this, I wonder how anyone could consign themselves to a lifetime with the crazy Paula Abdul!
I was quite surprised to hear that Simon Cowell had called this years season of American Idol “dull”, as compared to the X factor I think it is almost as exciting as bungee jumping off The Empire State Building!
Cowell told The Sun: “To be honest with you I’m really not enjoying the current American Idol season. It actually reminds me of the last X Factor series we did. It’s just a bit dull.”
I’m not really sure how Simon can compare the two TV talent shows without laughing. Any of the people that were kicked out of American Idol last week, could easily have won last year’s X Factor. Continue reading ‘Simon Cowell Thinks American Idol Is Dull!‘ »

Wanya, Shawn and Nathan told Now Online: “We love Simon. He’s not always right, but his approach is dead on. He’s the most truthful. You have to be very straightforward in this business.
