Both American Idol cutie, Jason Castro, and Australian Idol finalist, Daniel Mifsud, sang “Fragile.”  You tell me - who sang it best?

I’ve been getting emails about bringing the Face Offs back and here we are (special thanks to Nick!).  First up - American Idol finalist, David Archuleta, versus last season’s Australian Idol runnerup, Matt Corby, singing “Another Day in Paradise.”  I honestly think this is a great match up since they are both 17 (right?) and are/were clear favorites.  Watch the performances and vote!

American Idol 7 contestant, Luke Menard, and Canadian Idol season 5 Top 3 finalist, Carly Rae Jepsen, both sang “Killer Queen” and this face off marks my first international one of 2008.  Watch the performances and weigh-in!

I’m really curious to see how this poll turns out.  Recently eliminated American Idol 7 contestant, Alaina Whitaker and season 2 finalist, Carmen Rasmusen both sang “Hopelessly Devoted to You.”  Check out the performances!

Okay, I normally only put American Idol (or the international Idols) but I felt that David Cook’s performance of “Hello” last week was so good it could go up against the original by Lionel Richie.  What do you think?  No disrespect, by the way - you can’t touch Lionel Richie!

The Idol Face Off is back on Idol Stalker!!!  I’ve read your emails and have brought back one of my favorite features from last year.  Every day (hopefully!), I will put up a face-off between different contestants from the Idol shows from around the world.  Feel free to send suggestions but please look at these former face offs to make sure it hasn’t already been done!

Hello everyone!  I just wanted to let you all know that, although some of Idol Stalker’s regular features disappeared over the holidays and through this first section of the new season, all the goodies will be returning (thanks for the emails everyone!!!)

So, for newcomers and anyone who just needs an update, the “Face Offs” feature contestants performing (almost exclusively sung on an Idol stage somewhere in the world) the same songs.  You get to decide who sung it better.  I may be using a new polling software to make things more pleasant, lol.  Check out the former Face Offs here!

The “Fan Days” are currently for Elliott Yamin, Kellie Pickler, Bo Bice, International Idols, Kalan Porter, Clay Aiken and Chris Daughtry.  There is also the “Your Idol” day where any of the former Idol contestants can be featured. 

To participate, send in photos that you like (or took), stories, videos, fan art, etc…  Basically, anything relating to your favorite Idol personality (even judges/hosts).  I’m hoping for a large volume of submissions.  Please leave suggestions about your ideas for other Idol days in the comments area of this post. 

*Clay fans note - Friday will be “Clay Day” again!

Camillia Temple (Australian Idol) and Carrie Underwood (American Idol) both sang “Piece of My Heart.”

Which lady took a piece of your heart?

Carrie Underwood

It’s Friday which normally means there is a Face Off with Clay Aiken in it… and today’s no different. Clay faces off against Elliott Yamin. This is a hot one because both American Idol cuties sing “Open Arms” in very different styles. I love them both!

Which will you choose?

It’s two American Idol beauties in today’s face off - Nikki McKibbin and Kellie Pickler. They both sang “I’m The Only One.”

Who is the only one for you?
