It's funny. Today, different things for Cook fans were put on sale: A bio book (seems directed at kids though, it's called "Dream Big: American Idol Superstars", apparently Kris and Adam have one too), a tab book for guitar and vocals of the songs from his album (people are sooo happy about this) and a new iPhone application with the lyrics from his album. Anyway, it shows that it's a slow news time for David, people are excited like kids over the new stuff!

ETA: Aw, and Cook's father joined Twitter (he locked his tweets, which is perfectly fine with me) and he's following Kris!

I liked Kimberly. And I'm baffled how Simon thought that she was more old-fashioned than that Lloyd guy. He was likeable, but I found him old-fashioned.

Erica was very meh, but the Barney thing was funny.

Yay for Neil Patrick Harris. Bleh for whichever Jonas bro is coming up.

You know, I very much hate sob stories, but increasing conciousness about Tourette's Syndrome is a good thing I believe. And Dave Pittman was pretty good too.

Those Cook men love them some Kris. Can't blame them really. :)

Cool about the iphone app that's really neat. And the Books - hee! I'm a little tempted to buy Kris's .. that's so wrong. lol.

Neil Patrick Harris is awesome-sauce. I wouldn't have let Erica through.. Barney or no Barney. I liked Kimberley, Tawdric ??? Is that his name.. liked him.

ETA: Dave was pretty good I agree.

Yay, Kris commercial!

I heard Whataya Want From Me on the radio today. It's #19 on iTunes, Kris is #18. They were separated by about 4 or 5 spots yesterday. Wonder if Adam being featured last night on Idol gave him a jump? Or was it Ellen?

Toddrick Hall (I think?) supposedly makes top 24 and some stories about him were in a few places. He has a lot of experience, but he also dupped some people of some money from what I read. The season 3 runner up Diana DeGarmo worked from him in a theater production and she pretty much said it was awful. So I admit I was coming in with a negative opinion. I thought he was somewhat likeable, but I didn't like his voice, too many runs once again.

I liked the little little bit of Stephanie Daulong we saw (blonde girl in a montage).

I didn't understand what they found in Meagan, I thought she sounded awful.

We saw Michael Castro make it to Hollywood really quick.

I'm a bit surprised we're not seeing more of the people who actually are in the top 24. Not only in Dallas, but in the other cities as well.

Just read this post on the blog:

Don’t know if this has been posted – Kris’s interview with Hot 99.5 in Washington DC.
For me some of the interviewer’s comments were totally inappropriate. Not fair to either Kris or Adam. The podcast on site has now been edited and the ending removed.

In the interview I listened to, there was no mention of Adam. Was it already edited when I heard it?

I haven't watched the YouTube yet (posted below):

I'm about to watch the president. I'll be back in a while.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised that we don't see the people who made top 24, they only show a few good auditions (tonight was better, though) and they concentrate on the sob stories.

In the end, Joe Jonas was pretty invisible, I think we only heard him say "yeah" a few times.

I zoned out during Christian, I guess I didn't really like her.

Ha! SleepinIn posted that interview on the previous page and I even made a comment on it! The host loved himself some Kris!

ETA: Why am I in blue? And something happened at the end of the interview? I only listened to the edited one, I guess, the ending was weird.

Yes, I know she did, missaddicted. I listened to it, myself, and I made a comment on it, too (I wrote "Nice interview", above).

What I was asking was, had it been edited after she posted it? Because someone said it was 'unfair to Kris and Adam." And I have no idea what they're talking about.

I'll listen to the YouTube version after I watch Obama.

Yeah, I edited my post! I have no clue what they're talking about either. Did you take away the video?

ETA: Oh, it's back!

Me EITHER!

And didn't the Jo Bro disappear into the woodwork?

Missaddicted you are BLUE again. :) And now I am too.. :angry3:

The interviewer for that interview took a lot of flack on twitter, people calling him homophobic, etc. He said that wasn't his issue. ;) And he actually liked both Kris and Adam.

Blue, I am so Blue.......Da Ba Dee Dabba Di

YouTube - Eiffel 65 - Blue (Da Ba Dee) (Original Video with subtitles)

Oh, and yes. They must have edited the podcast if there was no mention of Adam - the youtube is the unedited version that I listened to.. or the same version anyway - since when I downloaded it the file name was Kris Allen edited.

I don't know why people get so hysterical. He said it wasn't his best interview..

This is his twitter. http://twitter.com/tkradio He explains it better than I can.

People are freaking out on him and he just had a bad interview - it happens. He said he was intimidated to interview Kris so asked stupid questions.

@eternalblue8 basically i was being an over the top timid interviewer who was afraid to be silly or stupid with an idol.

OMG! You did not post that! Memories from last year of High School...

The interviewer got flack for that? Come on, it was benign. Okay, maybe he thought he would be funny and it definitely wasn't, but it wasn't an attack on either Kris or Adam.
