Idol Tonite!
First of all, congratulations goes out to Jennifer Hudson for winning the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress last night. That bitch is tearing it up in awards season and is now the official front runner for the Oscar. She also, along with America Ferrara, had the best speech of the night and even got some people in the audience to have tears in their eyes. You go girl!
But tonite finally begins the American Idol 6 season! Am I excited? Yes. And no. I am very excited that Idol is finally back on TV and will very quickly consume my life like it always does. But I'm not excited because we have a full 24 hours of pre-competition crap. That basically means about 3 weeks of auditions and one week of Hollywood Week. I don't mind the Hollywood Week stuff because those people can actually sing but watching 3 weeks of crap is a lot to take. And it seems like they keep adding more and more "bad singer" coverage each year. It feels like we have to wait until Hollywood Week before we really get to see anyone talented. Hopefully it won't be that bad this year but I do remember getting tired of auditions really quickly.
From all of the press out right now it sounds like it's a wide-open contest this year. There's no clear cut winner and the judges all seem to have different favorites. That's awesome! I felt like last year there really was no clear winner and anyone of the Top 5 could have easily won the whole thing. It definitely made it more exciting to watch. I'm looking forward to the same thing happening this time around.
So here's to the new season of Idol (and goodbye to the next 5 months of my life)!

Paula Abdul has never been drunk. Allegedly.
"Last year, when no one understood what I was saying, and even though I’ve never been drunk in my life, I’m accused of filling my Coca-Cola cup with alcohol,'’ Abdul says. ‘’Yeah, that was really fun for me.'’ [Entertainment Weekly]

Katharine McPhee is HOT
WOW! Katharine has really stepped it up and found a phenomenal look! Not that she was anything awful to look at when she entered American Idol last year (see first picture below) but I have to say that her stylist/make-up artist is fantastic.
