I just came back from the private opening of the American Idol Experience at Walt Disney World’s Hollywood Studios and I had a blast. I’m thoroughly exhausted but it really was a lot of fun. Disney really knows how to put on a show and I am extremely grateful to them for the fabulous trip! I will cover the event in three parts (motorcade, American Idol Experience show and the after-party) over the next three days. Today, I’ll kick… More »
Melinda Doolittle was a force to be reckoned on the sixth season of American Idol. Judge, Simon Cowell, had hoped she would be in the finale but she ended up finishing in third place behind Blake Lewis (runner-up) and Jordin Sparks (winner). Today, Melinda’s first album drops and I hope you pick up a copy! The album, Coming Back to You, was recorded using live instruments and you can feel and hear the richness in the quality of the… More »
The sixth season of American Idol brought us a fantastic Top 12. It also brought me to this site. I started blogging on Idol Stalker right around the time the Top 12 was announced that year so, it always brings back fond memories. What do you remember about that year? Was it Jordin Sparks’ winning moment? Blake Lewis’ killer performance of “Shot Through the Heart (You Give Love a Bad Name)”? Sanjaya’s ponyhawk? To… More »
American Idol season 6 finalist, Lakisha Jones (or “Kiki”) will be marrying her fiancé, Larry Davis, this coming weekend in Beverly Hills. I know it’s probably not going to be some $30 million wedding but, having seen Lakisha’s vivacious personality on the show, it’s probably going to be lavish (in her way) all the same. Her rumored guests include former Idol hopefuls, Melinda Doolittle and Gina Glocksen, singer Chaka Khan and a performance by the legendary gospel singer, BeBe… More »
American Idol season six finalist, Melinda Doolittle, was on the Today show this morning and she looked fantastic. She was on the show to surprise her cousin at her wedding (Melinda told her that for contractual reasons, she couldn’t attend the wedding but she lied!!!). She sang for them and it was really touching and sweet to see the bride come out and squeal with delight when she saw Melinda! Ms. Doolittle also revealed that her album will be out… More »
Melinda Doolittle was eliminated from season 6 of American Idol on May 16, 2007 and it was a sad moment. I was sure she was going to be in the finals. Simon Cowell had expressed his preference for Melinda with lavish praise only to see her get eliminated. He, along with many of us, was shocked to see her go. Here’s her performance of "Nutbush City Limits" Technorati Tags: melinda doolittle,melinda… More »

His elimination on… More »
Melinda Doolittle is currently appearing in a Zaxby’s commercial for fried chicken. First, I just want to say that I am really frustrated that a woman of her talent has not been signed to a label. That being said, I think she does a great job on the commercial and I would buy chicken from her any time!!! Check it out and tell me what you think!

I couldn’t be happier for Melinda Doolittle! It’s good to know that not all American Idol alumni end up opening malls… I read this on the Tennessean website:

For the first time, the show, which will tape Nov. 19, will be held off-campus. The Schermerhorn Symphony Center event will feature more than 400 student voices as well as members of the School of… More »
Kelli Turner, a reader of the Tennessean, won two tickets to Sunday’s Fashion for Everybody!, the Eating Disorders Coalition of Middle Tennessee’s fashion show.
Readers were asked to submit the name of this year’s best role model, someone who is completely at ease in his or her own skin.
“Nashville’s Melinda Doolittle should definitely be considered a role model for today’s young girls,” Kelli writes. “An attractive young woman in her own right, Melinda’s positive attitude and radiant spirit make her even… More »

With the auditions for the next season of American Idol starting next week, some season 6′s top 10 had advice for Idol hopefuls:
Jordin Sparks: Know that they’re watching to see if you’ll crack under pressure. Sing something nobody else is doing, because by the 10th time they’ve heard it, they’re going to cut you off early, and you need all the time they give you. Smile. Dress nice, but not so nice. Maybe smart casual.
