As another season of American Idol is underway, it's amazing to think that the show is already in season 13. Since the show first began, Idol alum have shown that there is life after singing for votes, doing everything from reality TV to winning major movie awards. But one former contestant is looking away from entertainment and towards politics.
Few shows have gone through as many permutations and growing pains as "American Idol". Fox's flagship talent show is back with (yet again) a tweaked cast.
One look at her Facebook page with the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Elton John, Ludacris, Faith Hill and Tim McGraw, you'd think that 16-year-old Stephanie Marie Hanvey, of Howell Township, has already arrived, but the lineup of who's who in the music industry is just the beginning in her quest to reach super stardom.
Last season's go-round for American Idol may not have been the best in the show's history. But things may not be changing as drastically as we've been lead to believe.
FOX's 'Glee' might be absent from Comic-Con for the first time in years next week, but that doesn't mean the long-running FOX musical dramedy lacks for big news going into season 5. 'American Idol' runner-up and glam icon Adam Lambert has been announced to join the cast of 'Glee' season 5, and frankly, we're surprised it took him this long.
I openly admit that I am a heavy TV viewer. I have two TiVo DVRs that usually have a good number of shows waiting for me each evening. But the last two weeks or so have been pretty quiet.
