Idol Review – Blogging American Idol 9

Crawling out from my hole

Hi kids! Happy New Year, and happy New Idol! I am crawling out from my hibernation to tell you that American Idol Season 8 (I can’t believe we are already at 8!) begins January 13 meaning there are 12 days until we resume the craziness. Here at IdolReview, because I want to get back into the Idol spirit (and because I have yet to de-Christmas my life) I will be doing the 12 days of Idol, meaning a fun new post with a new gift for you every day until the premiere. Today, the first day of Idol, you get one new masthead (see above). Yay!

Double Yay! In fact, make that a triple Yay!

So, guess who is GOING TO THE FINALE IN LA ON WEDNESDAY! Omg Omg Omg.

I got vouchers for tickets, so it is not 100% guaranteed, but when given an opportunity like this I HAVE to try. So I am flying out Wednesday morning. And hope to use my good Idol luck, favor with the Idol Gods, and if necessary, a lot of begging to get in. More as this transpires…

Late Night

I won’t be able to watch until late tonight (or perhaps the wee hours of tomorrow?), so I’ll post as soon as I can get home and watch. But I hear Paula was in rare form tonight. I’m looking forward to the spectacle!

weekly gossip and such

Bits and pieces while you are anxiously awaiting the big stage…

>>Quiz your knowledge of those (almost) forgotten Idol Starlets.

>>Love to see these two in a cage match – it would be quite a smackdown.

>>I would also love to see these two in a cage match (Rosie and Simon, that is). Now THAT would be a great fight.

>>Simon’s Thoughts on Britney – My thoughts? Get well soon, Britney! Then you can go back to being hot!

>>Is this the reason Sanjaya is still here?

>>Bucky singin at the Opry

>>When all is said and done, you have to feel bad for the girl…

>>Is something in his pocket, or is Mario REALLY happy to see us…

A little housekeeping – I have updated the music section, so all the info is current and all the links work (as of today).

Also, I have added a forum tab above – this is still a work in progress, but I am using a service by toptensources.com, and their people are actively working on improving the service. It’s better than me having an individual forum, which may not see much action. So this way, users from several sites are contributing to one forum discussion. Right now, you can click on a topic thread and it pops up in a new window, but they are working to eliminate the popups. If you do use it or check it out, please give me feedback, so I can let them know how to make this service work better.

See you tonight!

who said blogging wouldn’t make you rich and famous?

Well, I don’t have the rich part yet, or really the famous part yet, but this is the first step: I got IM-interviewed by Blender Magazine’s blog this morning along with MJ, Judge Jru, and Amanda. How much fun is that?
