AMERICAN IDOL'S LISA TUCKER ON THE OC!
You saw her take the stage each week on American Idol, now you can see her take her date to prom on The OC, Thursday, April 27th!
That should be fun for her. :)
It should. She's a lovely young girl who has already had some professional acting experience. She isn't a strong singer, but she certainly could continue to develop her acting career and might do very well.
Want to see something scarey?

Carrie Underwood's Album Goes Triple Platinum
Some Hearts, Carrie Underwood's debut album, has been certified triple platinum by the RIAA for shipments of 3 million copies. According to her record label, it's the fastest such certification in RIAA history for a debut album by a female country artist. Released 20 weeks ago, Some Hearts has spent a total of 15 weeks at the top of Billboard's country albums chart. Underwood will be touring this summer with Kenny Chesney.
The niche AI has failed to fill so far with their winners is the male pop star.
LOL! What's scary about the poll you posted is that the Pickle seems to be the front runner these days.
Pickler picks Charlotte stylist Carmen will cut Kellie's hair
CRYSTAL DEMPSEY
Style Editor
"American Idol" contestant Kellie Pickler called her favorite Charlotte hair stylist over the weekend and asked him to fly to Los Angeles to cut her hair on Wednesday morning.
On the show, Pickler has talked about wanting a new 'do.
Carmen Cutrona, one of the Q.C.'s most sought-after hair designers, left Tuesday morning to help Pickler, his most famous celebrity client, a representative for Cutrona confirmed.
Cutrona -- who charges $300 for a consultation, cut and styling -- is the owner of Carmen! Carmen! Salon é Spas.
Pickler, who lives in Albemarle, has been a client of Cutrona's for a few years, the hair designer's rep says.
No word yet on whether he's going to tackle the locks of Bucky Covington of Rockingham.

Is it possible they are using Pickler to get rid of the other females and when the field is reduced enough, they will work against her to push who they really want?
So the naive, poor little backwoods girl who doesn't know saLmon and calaMAri has been paying $300 for her haircuts for "a few years." Gag!
I've learned the hard way that anything is possible in this crazy world.
As a Carrie fan, get ready to strap yourself in for a happy ride through the music awards season.
PS to my #3,430: Not only that, but Little Miss Hick from the backwoods can afford to fly her stylist all the way across country just to cut her hair. The show isn't paying for that; AI provides its own makeup and hair stylists.
Exactly!! I knew you'd like that! :)
Uh huh! I don't suppose Seacrest will ask her about that before she sings next week.
Not unless it becomes a big thing on the internet and entertainment media. Then they'd cook up a story about how the cost was donated by the local church group or something.
Maybe she... umm... works it off "in trade", if you know what I mean.
"seems so strange to me that AI would be pushing the Pickle to win"
Not really. The success with Carrie Underwood just causes them to try to run it into the ground. Even if Pickler is nowhere near as good as Underwood, they're probaby thinking "So what if she can't sell 3 million copies like Carrie...maybe she can still sell a million."
After listening to just the audio of Pickler's performance this week, it's clear she has some bigtime weaknesses as a singer(I would have rated her lower this week just going by the audio), but with a little or a lot of help in the studio she may be fixable. I hope she doesn't win though.
I was wondering the same thing! I doubt Sonic pays well enough for $300 haircuts. sheesh
Well, I'm guessing "celebrity hairstylist" and "Charlotte" aren't found together in too many sentences and that this person is doing it on their own dime so they can reap the benefits of the publicity that is sure to come from it.
