Hmm... here's something interesting - just perfect for the obsessive idol fans out there. A chance to buy Idol postage stamps - fifty different designs for each of the seven winners, so 350 different stamps. And of course people will be collecting sheets of stamps. Now, if they made Carrie Underwood's or Kelly Clarkson's stamps "scratch and sniff", I'd be there.

Idol’ winners to appear on postage stamps
Fans will get a chance to lick all seven winners — in the form of a stamp
Fans of “American Idol” will get a chance to lick all seven winners of the hit Fox reality show — in the form of a stamp, that is.
Fox has announced a partnership between “Idol” and Photostamps.com to release unique collectable postage stamps of past “Idol” winners Kelly Clarkson, Ruben Studdard, Fantasia, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Hicks and Jordin Sparks, along with the upcoming season seven champ.
All 50 U.S. states will get an exclusive design. Every week, Photostamps.com will print 100,000 sheets of each winner, with each state having its own design featured on 2,000 of the sheets.
A stamp of season one champ Kelly Clarkson is already available for purchase on Americanidol.com and Photostamps.com. Past season winners stamps will be available for purchase online every Tuesday for the next six weeks.
Proceeds from the “Idol” stamps will benefit the “Idol Gives Back” charity organization, which benefits Children’s Defense Fund, The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, Make It Right, Malaria No More, Save The Children, and the Children’s Health Fund.

I was thinking you had to be dead to be on a stamp, but I guess this photostamps thing doesn't count.

Now wait 6 years/ and 6 cycles of AI until Archuleta is age eligible and bam! he can become the chosen one.

Out of iTunes Top 10 songs, four are from AI (looks like stuff from America Gives Back):
3. Jordin Sparks & Chris Brown - No Air
7. Chris Daugtry - What About Now
8. Carrie Underwood - Praying for Time
10. Shout at the Devil - Various Artists
(OK, it's actually Shout to the Lord, but it would have been pretty cool if they had covered the Motley Crue song)

It is very disapointing that Michael Johns got the boot because he did NOT deserve to go home...CARLY DID! I think that Ryan was told by the American Idol creators to not say what name was actualy on the card because you know AI chooses who they want to stay and go some of the time. But Whatever at least my favorite is still in the competition which is David A. LOVE HIM! I have to call it right now but he is gonna win the show..you can just tell! And if not then he WILL finish 2nd at least!

Man, Jordin Sparks is shitty at lip synching.
