American Idol label drops 3 former stars.

They recently dropped Taylor Hicks, Ruben and Katharine Mcphee. Seems odd to drop them right before the new season.

When was the last time Clay Aiken had a song on the radio?

Aside from Kelly Clarkson (the first person is usually the only remembered, certainly most remembered), Carrie Underwood- most of the other winners had a month or two on radio and that was it.

Taylor Hicks shouldn't have won jack shit.  But they all 3 suck.  I am going to see if I can check out that fucking beat box dude from this past year.  I am sure it sucks but just curious.  Can't remember....oh yeah Blake Lewis.

I thought Kelly Clarkson was with a different label now?

I thought that's why she was doing so much better than her counterparts as well... The new label put real force behind her... some good song writers and she blew up.

Can anyone confirm or deny my beliefs that she's with a different label?

I know she left her handlers or management or whatever they are called, but pretty sure she was still working with Clive Davis on her last album, I heard they were fighting though.

i don't know about the other two but taylor won due to personality, not talent

his gray hair made him likable

that show is a popularity contest more than anything  but when the show is over it is all about talent

Just what Simon didn't want. He didn't want the f-in' mohawk kid to get soo far because lil girls liked him. Ruben won on talent. He had a album out last year, good R & B stuff.

But I liked that girl who sung to her boss, she was good, she just didn't make it on there.
