Casey was sent home!

I missed American Idol last night, but am not surprised by the outcome as Casey to me was stuck in a rut. I did like him better than most of the other contestants, but he continued to sound the same....he will do well either way!

I was beautiful, amazing and not what I expected.....I really did not want to watch it, but got sucked in this morning! Such a beautiful bride and groom. Here is a link offering a complete recap with videos and pics!

Idol tonight features music from Carole King!

The Top 6 perform songs from Carole King tonight on American Idol! Bruno Mars is supposed to perform as well!

The Voice...I liked it!

Did you see the new singing contest last night? Judges, ooops, I mean 'Coaches' include Christina Aguilera, Cee-Lo Green, Adam Levine of Maroon 5 and Blake Shelton do not get to see the contestants as they sing. They judge them strictly by their voice. There was quite the competition between coaches as they are to build their own team of 8 contestants to work with and mold. Cool concept and I think it will do well. Here's the website if you wanna learn more!

Here is the new voice of Aflac!!

Here is a look at the new voice of Aflac...and he is from Minnesota!!

Simon and Paul reunite!

The X Factor will bring them back together! Simon says, "I've always wanted Paula. Always been very vocal about that. I missed her the second she left American Idol. Always loved working with her even though she can be a pain...I don't know what it is about her, but I've always clicked with her." Our 4 contestants are on their way to Chicago this week to compete!! Good luck!
