Ellen Judged by AI Alumni and Home Makeover's 100th House

Currently I am watching " Extreme Makeover: Home Edition on CMT"  and its there 100th episode. They are helping a family of nine, soon to be 10 people but I just feel so sorry for the 13 year old nice of the mom. First she's in the truck with her dad when he crashes and dies. Then no longer than a year later her mom's ex-boyfriend shoots her mother and her mother's new boyfriend while she's asleep on the floor next to her moms bed. She now speaks with her aunt who took her and her 3 siblings in (while having 4 of her own) about and against domestic violence. You can too.

A few days ago comedy star/tv talkshow Ellen Degeneres joined the American Idol ranks as a judge. Ellen takes the place of Paula. US Magazine asks American Idol alumni what they think of her tactic. She gets nothing but rave reviews, as is to be expected. The article is linked in the title.

3 for 1-"Lost" Questions; NASCAR Roll-Over and Carrie Underwood+Queen Latifah on 'Pants on the Ground'

Hey all. I've decided to do a special 3 for 1 post today because I did not do a real celeb posting on friday. I may mention TV show "Lost" first in the heading but the title is linked to the NASCAR Roll-over so I'm starting there.

After viewing the YouTube clip, Jill George, driver of the 48 car, hits the apron on the turn of the fourth corner in today's NASCAR race and then flips over his car. He walks away fine.

Second up, the "Lost" questions. I personally never watched the show, but my parents did pretty religiously and I know some of my friends are quite obsessed. So when I came across this article, I couldn't help reading and reporting. This article tries to either answer or explain questions the actors have, such as whats with the numbers or what is the smoke monster. This is because the show is entering its final season, so fans (and the actors) are hoping to find out whats going on.

Last but not least, since the Superbowl is tomorrow (Sunday) this week has been a lot of conferences. On Thursday on one of the pre-game conferences (I believe CBS or some channel), Carrie Underwood who is to sing the National Anthem and Queen Latifah, who is to sing America the Beautiful, were asked a few questions. One TV reporter asks Carrie about "American Idol" audtionee Larry Platt's 'Pants on the Ground'.

Watch what she very classily says and Queen Latifah's response.

Remember Him?

So, do you all remember the greek long-haired "god" Constantine Maroulis four years ago on American Idol? (That was the year they had TWO long-haired rockers, Constantine and Bo Bice). The title links you ti a bio on Constantine. These days Constantine stars in "Rock of Ages" which was nominated for a Tony Award which was aired last night. This article is an interview about how he has grown and such from Star Magazine. This clip is from American Idol Rewind where Constantine dishes on his experience as an AI contestant. 

"Rock of Ages" is a Broadway musical that centers around music of the 80s such as Bon Jovi and Journey amongst others. Constantine plays the star. In the Star interview he says he'd cut off his hair! What do you think of "Rock of Ages" and cutting hair?

Adam Lambert Out or Not?

As you know, it has been in wide speculation whether or not the runner-up on American Idol, Adam Lambert, is openly gay or not. My title links to Perez Hilton's most recent post on the matter stating that the rumour has it that Adam will come out publicly in Rolling Stone magazine. However, judge Kara has..called Adam out and so has the National Enquirer. People are saying that Adam is lame, unprofessional, etc for not coming out publicly but I find this insulting. It is no ones right to decide when a public figure come out to the media. Its his own chocie. What do you think?
