When Taylor was given this shirt and told about the soldiers who were his fans he was visibly touched and overwhelmed, in a good way.

Thanks for telling us about that.

The good news is judging from that photo it looks like he's been punched in the nose a few times.

Then came a photo of Taylor. Simon seemed less passionate when he said he'd "do well." Damned by faint praise.

More verification that Simon doesn't like or get Taylor. That's ok, I think Taylor will do just fine.

What would Taylor's be? Hurricane Heads?

Soul Patrol! They are organized and already planning events and how to prove Simon wrong. It's not just about Taylor's success but getting other similar artists who are out there more in the mainstream again.

Yes, he just looks like the picture of a Kerry supporter doesn't he?

So Simon thinks Ace will be more successful than Taylor?

That's okay, I don't think Taylor likes or cares about Simon to be honest. Like he said, what does Simon know about American music and what we like? Taylor made Simon irrelevant this year. Simon was unable to manipulate Taylor's fans.

He does. He also reminds me of Al Franken right down to the glasses.

I think those two engaged in a bit of a battle of will and wits over the course of the season, and Taylor won. Simon's shoulder shrug, saying "that's show business" while declaring Taylor the new Idol seemed to me to be the white flag.

Simon failed to manipulate America into Chris or Kat, he failed to kill Taylor's spirit, and he wound up with egg on his face. That's why he recently described Taylor in one word: "Strong".

Simon's bluff has been called by none other than Taylor himself. He really is clueless about what we want here. Ace is cute but he's a weak singer and doesn't have that wow factor to be more than maybe a soap opera actor IMO. Kellie may do well if she's given an appropriate sit com but I don't see her making it as a long term singer.

Simon actually preferred Kellie to Carrie Underwood. He hated Clay. He bashed Taylor. He promotes Il Divo, the cheesiest group going.

He's laughing all the way to the bank, so I guess it's cool with him. The guy knows how to make money, but he doesn't know REAL American music if it kicked him in the bum.

"You're always available, until you have a ring on your finger, you're always available," Katharine laughed.


In speaking with someone who had a chance to be around her a great deal these past few months (and no, not E) the impression was that she is not all that bad as in evil but EXTREMELY immature and a bit self-centered which is fairly consistant with a lot of people her age.

He sure does look like Al Franken now that you mention it.

So Tay is taking off in Country stations. That makes a great deal of sense ot me and he may end up doing a lot of country stuff. A good venue for him. The cowboy soul patrol.

I guess they are getting the hint that people don't like having their favorite shows preempted all the time! :)

Well, it wouldn't have been so bad, but they were just chatting about the possible hail and the possible tornado and the possible deluge of rain and remember back when "blah" happened?

Yeah I know but I think that at her age she could choose her words better.

Well, there were several, a good deal younger than her this year and they carried themselves a heck of a lot better than her.

I agree Kat is not evil! And also agree on the immature and self-centered bit, I have attributed that to her indulgent parents. But at some point one has to break away and become an adult. It will be harder for her is she continues to receive this level of adulation.

BTW, mrob, as one with inside info, can you confirm or deny what Taylor is/was like around AI, or at least throw us some hints? Mucho gracias!

Constantine Courts Kellie Pickler

Rumors have been swirling that former American Idol finalists Constantine Maroulis and Kellie Pickler are an item. Recently, Maroulis went shopping at Santa Monica's L.F. boutique and told store staff that he was looking for a "rock and roll look" for a "very special friend." The singer then admitted that he was in fact shopping for Pickler.

As he browsed through the aisles, Maroulis spotted a pair of lime green shoes emblazoned with polka dots and exclaimed, "These are so her." He purchased them along with a sexy black-and-white dress. Talk about having a personal shopper.
