]]> American Idol season 8 contestant, Danny Gokey, must be thrilled at  the fact that he has officially been signed by 19 Recordings/RCA Nashville! This makes him the last of the top 4 contestants for that season to be signed with a record label, following Allison Iraheta, Adam Lambert and winner Kris Allen.  Actually, Danny is making history because this is the first time that Idol’s label has signed the top four contestants of a single season!.

Joe Galante, chairman of Sony Music Nashville said of Gokey, "We absolutely love Danny. We haven’t had anybody like that (in country) since Ronnie Milsap or T. Graham Brown." He also praised Danny’s "soulful edge", which made viewers and the Idol judges fall in love with him on the show.

Danny also spoke on his choice for turning to country music, saying that while on the show, "I was so wet behind the ears, I didn’t know where I wanted to go. But I most related to the message and the music of country."

I’m sure Danny’s extremely excited and proud! I can’t wait to hear some music from him and see where he goes with this label. Hopefully, it’ll go well for him!

]]> Did you guys catch American Idol season 8’s top 10 contestants on Larry King Live tonight? If not, I’ve got some videos here for you! Larry wasn’t the one interviewing them, though. Who better to do the job than Idol’s own Ryan Seacrest?

Danny Gokey spoke a bit about what he thought might have been the reason why Adam Lambert did not come out as the winner for this latest season of the show. He had some reasonable explanations! Alison Iraheta admitted that Idol has helped her come out of her shell a bit. Scott MacIntyre also joked about needing a recommendation for Dancing with the Stars after all the dancing that he did on the show.
