True...except that Sanjaya is a boy only in the loosest sense of that word, and all his breathy attempts at sexiness are not aimed at those starry eyed pubescent girls who buy CD's. I'll bet Clay Aiken is just dying to mentor him. ;-)
Wolfie, I'm with you on being tired of all the Idol-fan comparisons. When the season is over, it's over. Each contestant, winner or no, still has to forge ahead with their career path. Success (or lack of) comes in various ways and is defined differently for each performer. Most are still way better off then before AI, despite the heavy hand of their benefactor.
