American Idol 8 Finale Red Carpet Pictures
May 21, 2009 by Jeanne
There were so many stars on the red carpet last night for the American Idol season 8 finale that I wouldn’t even dream of trying to list them here.
Of course, there were the finalists, Kris Allen and Adam Lambert, along with the rest of the Top 13 and judges but the celebrities (and former contestants) came out in droves to see who would win the singing competition.
It looks like season four winner, Carrie Underwood, hurt her knee somehow since she’s got her “owie” all covered up with four Hello Kitty bandaids. She still managed to look absolutely …read more
Ruben Studdard’s New “Together” Video
American Idol season 2 winner, Ruben Studdard, has released the video for his single “Together.” I really like the song which is from his upcoming album Love IS (available on May 19, 2009). The video is pretty cute too.
Here’s the tracklisting from the album which was produced by the dynamic duo, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. I’m looking forward to hearing the full album because I think they, along with Ruben, could make a really great combination.

March 10, 2009 by Jeanne
Sister 2 Sister magazine publisher, Jamie Foster Brown, caught up with American Idol season 2 winner, Ruben Studdard, and took the opportunity to ask him about his new album, as well as clear up some rumors.
He talked about his upcoming album (due out the day before Mother’s Day) on which he had the chance to work with Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis who, in case you aren’t familiar with them, have an incredible track record in the industry. I’m really looking forward to hearing what they came up with! When Jamie asked what fans can expect from the album, …read more
Inside Disney’s American Idol Experience
I cannot put up pictures yet of what I saw while I was inside the American Idol Experience attraction at Disney’s Hollywood Studios but I can tell you a few things! There were five finalists and we were given instructions about how to vote for the person we liked best (there’s a voting panel on the armrests). The only problem is that you can accidentally change the vote of the person sitting next to you, which happened to me (fortunately, it was my husband).
At the event, all of the former American Idol winners were brought on stage where they were …read more

February 14, 2009 by Jeanne
I just came back from the private opening of the American Idol Experience at Walt Disney World’s Hollywood Studios and I had a blast. I’m thoroughly exhausted but it really was a lot of fun. Disney really knows how to put on a show and I am extremely grateful to them for the fabulous trip!
I will cover the event in three parts (motorcade, American Idol Experience show and the after-party) over the next three days. Today, I’ll kick things off by telling you all about the American Idol motorcade.
The blue carpet was rolled out for …read more
American Idol Season 2: Top 10
January 7, 2009 by Jeanne
This is our second day in our week-long countdown to the start of American Idol season 8!!! So, what do you remember about the second season of your favorite singing competition?
It was the season of Ruben Studdard and Clay Aiken. Even back during the competition, I just could not decide. I loved them both so much for two entirely different reasons. Ruben had a smooth style and teddy bear-like quality that made him so lovable during performances like “Music of My Heart” but then Clay brought so much skill and growth to songs like “Bridge Over Troubled Water.”
I …read more

American Idol season two winner, Ruben Studdard, will be performing at the Bessie Smith Heritage Festival next month. He has never performed in Chattanooga, where the event is taking place, but he seems pretty excited about it: “It’s going to be fun. It’s like inviting people to my living room. We have a party, and I’m sure it’s not going to be any different here in Chattanooga”

July 25, 2008 by Jeanne
Here’s a video of the medley that the top five contestants on the second season of American Idol performed. I thought they did a great job but they were a really strong group of singers. How can you go wrong with Ruben Studdard, Clay Aiken, Kimberley Locke, Trenyce and Joshua Gracin? It was a nice mix. Check it out:

American Idol Flashback: Ruben Studdard "Music of My Heart"
July 7, 2008 by Jeanne
Ruben Studdard, the winner of the second season of American Idol performed “Music of My Heart” and, of course, he did an amazing job! I really loved his velvety, teddy bear voice. I’m really surprised that he hasn’t been more successful but that’s the fickleness of showbusiness, right?
