Allison Iraheta Signs Record Deal

Friday, June 12th, 2009

Allison Iraheta, this year’s American Idol fourth place winner, has also signed with 19 Recordings. The 17-year old singer said in a statement released to Entertainment Weekly saying “I think I’m still in shock that this is happening — getting to record my first album and this whole awesome experience is a dream come true!” Earlier this week, both Kris Allen and Adam Lambert also signed their record deals with 19. I wonder if her album is also going to come out this fall. It will be an all out Idol competition for sales. I also wonder if third place winner Danny Gokey will get a contract.

American Idol Final 2 Revealed

Friday, May 15th, 2009

The final two contestants who will be competing on next week’s American Idol finale have been revealed as the last Idol hopeful to be given the ax was announced to be Danny Gokey. Danny had a pretty emotional journey throughout the competition and a lot of people were rooting for him. Ryan Seacrest even said that there were only just over 1 million votes separating Danny from another contestant. If more fans of his rallied for him, he could have been in the finale. Oh well, it doesn’t take away from the fact that he’s a good singer. The 2-part finale will be on live next week. Who do you think will win, Adam Lambert or Kris Allen?

Taylor Hicks Returns to American Idol Stage

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

If you’re wondering which American Idol alum will be going back to the Idol stage as the guest performer for the night, look no further than Taylor Hicks. He’s probably the least successful of all the Idols that have gone back to the stage so far. Heck, this is probably the biggest gig he’s had in years! Mind you, I wouldn’t be watching for his performance but for who’s going to be eliminated. Going on last night’s performances and the trend of voting, it will be Allison Iraheta, Matt Giraud and Kris Allen in the bottom 3. Kris gave a stellar performance but I just don’t think that he’s as popular as Adam Lambert or Danny Gokey.
