Celeb Tweetup: Amen to Amenities
One awesome perk about being a special little snowflake in Hollywood’s blizzard is all the free…well…perks. From the White House to the Tower of London to North Korea (possibly, oh god, we hope so!), some of our favorite stars are riding first class all the way to some places we don’t want to go to!
Is Chris Colfer (@chriscolfer) trying to bump off Corey Monteith (@frankenteen) so he can get all the solos in Glee?
You’re 16 and going to North Korea…. More »

Watch Out Justin Bieber: Kina Grannis Proves Girls Can Find Success Through YouTube, Too
YouTube has produced many successful artists — Justin Bieber comes to mind — but singer-songwriter Kina Grannis has taken a different tack — using the social media site to help her win a Doritos Crash The Super Bowl contest and propelling her self-released album Stairwells into the mainstream and snagging her songwriting work with the likes of Daniel Beddingfield and David Archuleta.
Although 24-year-old Kina says winning the Doritos contest in 2008 made her “100% focused on music and getting it… More »
Father’s Day Special: The Worst Celebrity Stage Dads
When you celebrate Father’s Day this weekend, take a chance to think about how fortunate you are…that you aren’t the offspring of any of these crazy middle-aged men.
So forgive your Dad for the time you thought he pushed you too hard in Little League or got mad at you for staying out past curfew–at least he didn’t tell the whole world that you were flying around in a hot air balloon.

An AP Impersonator Is On The Loose, Writing Smack About David Archuleta
Someone out there has been impersonating The Associated Press in order to spread wild gossip about American Idol alum David Archuleta. Filled with spelling errors and vague anonymous sourcing — both AP no-nos — the lengthy article was released Monday on the website Free Press Release. It cites “dozens of tips” from supposed witnesses who allege that the young singer is gay and had a relationship with another man.
“The person behind the ‘Free Press Release’ is clearly not an employee… More »
5 Songs That Need to Be Banned from ‘American Idol’
American Idol is on its tenth season and, like any show, they’ve had to make some changes to keep things fresh. The judges’ save, allowing competitors to play instruments, and the additions of Kara DioGuardi and Ellen DeGeneres were all ways Idol tried to keep the show interesting. But might I suggest that the show get rid of some dead weights? I’m not talking about firing Randy Jackson (at least not this time). No, I’m suggesting Idol ban some of… More »
Between The Lines: Why ‘American Idol’ Is Selling Lee DeWyze
For today’s installment of Between the Lines, our feature exploring the hidden aspects of popular culture, I will address the judges’ always-glowing endorsement of Lee DeWyze on American Idol despite Lee’s lack of stage presence, vocal power and potential to win the ninth season. Add to that his predilection for bad ’90s alterna-rock (Chris Daughtry also had this issue, but his ridiculous talent trumped his bad taste). Call me a cynic, but I don’t see a Daughtry-like future in the… More »
Sandra Bullock Takes Off Wedding Ring
It’s Tuesday morning and there is tons of stuff that people with more money than you have screwed up over the night to make you feel better about your own life. Clear eyes, full hearts, can’t lose, right guys? We’ve got news about Sandra Bullock, David Archuleta and Snooki. More »
No, Ryan Seacrest Is Not Ruining ‘American Idol’
When a beloved reality series jumps the proverbial shark, we need someone to blame — and in the case of American Idol, that someone has become Ryan Seacrest, the show’s longtime host and traffic cop.
Seacrest is known — and routinely mocked — for his metrosexual appearance, uber-Hollywood tan and cheesetastic delivery, the coiner of catchphrases such as, “Seacrest out!” and “THIS. IS. AMERICAN IDOL.” But he’s an unflappable showman and tireless workhorse, making a gig as ringmaster on the biggest… More »

David Archuleta, Rihanna Breathe Life Into ‘Idol’
So Michael Lynche was spared on last night’s American Idol, after Simon Cowell and company debated throughout the show whether to use their much-hyped, one-time-only “save” or cut loose a contestant. And Michael — who sang for his life — got lucky, re-joining the rest of season 9′s hopefuls, who are all kinda meh save for soulful Crystal Bowersox and quirky Siobhan Magnus.
But the contestants got a dose of undeniable talent when Rihanna and Idol alum David Archuleta paid the… More »
‘American Idol’ Blues: I Won’t Give Up This Fight
You know how you know American Idol has officially jumped the shark? Appearances by Diddy, Usher and Justin Bieber are far more memorable than this season’s contestant pool. Man, everyone but Crystal Bowersox is weak, the show is tedious as hell and the judges have nothing good to say.
I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again: What is WRONG with season 9?
Last night, when Didi whatsherlastname got voted off, and I couldn’t care less, I came to the… More »
Kara Sobs, Ellen Gets Huggy on ‘Idol’
There was lots of hugging and crying on tonight’s American Idol — it was like Paula Abdul was back!
Sadly, no. But wow: Ellen Degeneres actually jumped up from her perch on the judges’ panel to hug contestant Tim Urban for doing an impressive job on that old Idol standard “Hallelujah.” And Kara Dioguardi let her steely guard down, sobbing uncontrollably over new dad Michael Lynche’s R&B stylings.
What is going on?! Tim’s cute and all — and Michael seems like a really… More »
Jordin Sparks & David Archuleta sing “No Air” duet
I’ve always loved Jordin Sparks’s song “No Air” and I was pleasantly surprised to hear that she had done a duet with it with David Archuleta. As great as the original is, Chris Brown can’t follow Jordin around for all her performances, and besides ever since he assaulted Rihanna he’s not exactly the most popular guy in the world.
While hosting a special three-day event at the Edec roc Renaissance Miami Beach, Jordin did a few performances but it was “No… More »
David Archuleta performs on “Regis and Kelly” holiday episode
Today, December 22nd, David Archuleta performed on Live With Regis & Kelly for their special holiday-themed episode.
Instead of doing a well-known Christmas jingle, David got personal and decided to sing a special song that he wrote about what Christmas has meant through his life, called Melodies of Christmas.
His parents must have been so happy to hear him put their family traditions into a song like that! Regis is on hiatus post-surgery so Kelly Ripa’s husband Mark Consuelos guest hosted… More »
