Well, well, well – look who we have here. Another mystery contestant from American Idol 2012.

Someone else has come out to play with teen heartthrob, Justin Bieber. Canadian songbird, Carly Rae Jepson, has just been signed by Justin Bieber’s label, “School Boy Records”. Who knew he even had his own label? Talk about fast-forwarding a musical career. I remember seeing Carly Rae on Canadian Idol. She wasn’t my favorite singer […]

Tonight, American Idol continues its dramatic presentation of the Hollywood Week audition process. And after watching the television promo and listening to Jennifer Lopez’ interview on Jay Leno, it looks like the singers are dropping like flies. Nerves, fatigue and ill health equal the end of the line for some of these contestants as they […]

Tonight, American Idol begins the singing marathon called Hollywood Week. And I am sure it will be filled with all the drama and suspense that I have come to dislike about this show. It is tedious and overblown. As I said last week, American Idol would have been wise to jump-start the live shows this […]

I have never been so excited for The Superbowl. Seriously. This is nuts. I do love sports but don’t LOVE sports, if you know what I mean. When my choir was invited to sing the American and Canadian National anthems at the Toronto Skydome back in the day, I had no idea who the athletes […]

Tonight, American Idol features the final stop of the Season 11 audition tour – the city of St. Louis. Think we’ll find any blues singers? One can only hope! Wednesday’s Portland show was pretty weak, I thought. Lots of people with back stories and mediocre voices. I can’t see many going far during Hollywood week. […]
