American Idol Season 7
vanillalatte:
Did anyone see the AI follow-up on the Today Show this week where there was a short snippet of an interview with David Foster? I caught it but can't find the video online anywhere...anyway, Foster is a record producer who has worked with several of the previous Idols and has served as a guest mentor a few times over the seasons. I believe he played piano for Katherine McFee when she was a guest performer on one of the results episodes. He's known for turning talented unknowns into huge recording artists.
The video showed him saying he doesn't see any of the remaining idols as star material. He doesn't see a Kelli Clarkson or Carrie Underwood in this group. I thought that was quite an interesting comment coming from Foster. I think he's generally right about Syesha and David A...but I still think David Cook could be big.

hi ya! vanillalatte :waves: i didnt hear this! WOW! that dude might be big at getting some huge recordings BUT he has it all WRONG...COOK will be big!..i cant believe he would say something like that I know there is a David, cant remember his last name, that is the ceo of the record lable for AI, his last name isnt forster, so i dont know this other David.
....i still think DA should be in a play or sitcon, [not] the next AI!....but nancy grace, had her whole show last night on a person who tried out for AI this season, he is 19 and he was caught trying to pickup 10-12 year old boys......[GOD HAVE MERCY]...the guy that she was talking about didnt even make it to hollywood, he was awful...but she made it sound like he was on the show! his name is Langle [i think i spelled it right???] he was one of the ones AI shows as the worse of the worse, but Grace made it sound like he was on the show! breaking news and all! talking about back ground checks,
AI does do back ground checks ONLY if you make it on the show..i wanted to jump in the TV and tell her NO AI cant do back ground checks on thousands and thousands of people who try out, BUT AI does do them if you make it to hollywood, in which this guy didnt even get to sing 4 notes , cuz he was so bad!

Eh...Nancy Grace is only one step up for tabloid TV. And it's a SMALL step! The guy on E!'s The Soup loves to hack on her...he's hysterical! And yes, AI does background checks on everyone who goes to Hollywood week because any of them could make the show. Their background checks have gotten MUCH stricter since Corey Clark.
