American Idol Fan

The latest edition of ELLE Magazine features Carrie Underwood on the cover and there are pictures inside of many of the Season 7 finalists.  Carrie Underwood discusses the rumors surrounding her and Olympic winner, Michael Phelps, and says that she has never met him even though there have been rumors the two have been dating.  She tells ELLE that the rumors about the two of them being involved is a “fabricated lie that came out of nowhere”. 
 
In the same edition of ELLE, the Season 7 top 10 Idol finalists get a makeover!  You can see pictures and a lengthy spread of –Michael Johns, Carly Smithson, David Cook, David Archuleta, Jason Castro, Chikezie, Brooke White, Kristy Lee Cook, Syesha Mercado, and Ramiele Malubay.

The American Idol summer tour for Season 7 will come to an end this weekend.  The Top 10 contestants have been kept busy all summer touring the country and they will each soon have the opportunity to pursue their own interests. 

Obviously, some of the American Idol Season 7 contestants will be busier than others (David Cook & David Archuleta) but each one has their own special, unique talent that keeps their fans wanting more.  Here are some great moments from each of the Top 10 during Season 7.  Enjoy these videos of David Cook, David Archuleta, Syesha Mercado, Brooke White, Carly Smithson, Chikeze, Kristy Lee Cook, Jason Castro, Ramiele Malubay and Michael Johns. 

David Cook - Billie Jean…

David Archuleta - Imagine…

Syesha Mercado - I’ll Always Love You…

Brooke White - Let It Be…

Carly Smithson - Without You…

Chikizie - She’s A Woman…

Kristy Lee Cook - God Bless The USA…

Jason Castro - Somewhere Over the Rainbow…

Ramiele Malubay - You Don’t Have To Say You Love Me…

Michael Johns - It’s All Wrong…

Are you a Syesha Mercado fan?  While I thought Syesha was an excellent singer, I was surprised to see her make it to the top 3 on Season 7 of American Idol.  

In the video above, Syesha blogs, or “vlogs” while on the Idol’s summer tour. You will see with her goofing off in the video are Jason Castro, Brooke White, another one of my faves, Carly Smithson, Chikizie Eze, Kristy Lee Cook and Ramiele Malubay.  As you will see, there is a lot of foolishness in this video but the Idol gang has to unwind somehow from their busy touring schedule! 

Syesha deserves a lot of credit and respect for how far she went in the Idol competition.  Her family’s background of drug addiction (both parents) and homelessness didn’t leave Syesha much hope for a bright future.  But she has beat the odds and has come out on top and is proud of who she is.  Your fans are proud of you too, Syesha!
