		<description>I mean this isn&#039;t the NFL draft or the NBA draft a lot of the people on their have sung professionally it doesn&#039;t mean anything.  I mean like Simon said just cuz you have a contract with a label it doesn&#039;t make you a famous person.  They are people who sold 399 albums to friends and family.  but every year their are people who have sung back up for the likes of aguilera and others or people who have been in bands that get paid to put on shows.  So i think its a whole bunch of  nonsense to complain about the stuff.  I mean if your currently undercontract that would pose a problem but thats not the situation.  so people need to get over it besides good luck beating david and remeile</description>

		<description>There haven&#039;t been any real amateurs on American Idol in a loooong time.  Everyone on here in the past five years has had some sort of ties to the music business.  They&#039;ve all had a chance but haven&#039;t made it.  That&#039;s why you&#039;ve never heard of them.</description>

		<description>I think the new season of American Idol is just not that good.. I think its unfair that they put these singers in that already had a chance. I thought American Idol was for Amateurs that never had a record deal. Plus these top 24 they have now are noway as good as previous seasons. Im not impressed with any of them..I think Idol needs to come clean about a lot of misconception that just don&#039;t add up..</description>

		<description>Phrankie...love your comments..totally agree about the genius of David Foster!He is a friend of Andrea and of Katharine!
Patti conveniently ignores the truth in favor of her ludicrous predictions and fabrications.She is obsessed with Nick and male enhancement products!I think she&#039;s a man-hating gay woman in love with Kat and jealous of Nick.
PP is,in fact,the epitome of an idolstalker!</description>

		<description>Furthermore:

Foster  has worked as a producer with The Bee Gees, John Lennon, Michael Bublé, Clay Aiken, Josh Groban, Katharine McPhee, Céline Dion, Barbra Streisand, Kenny Rogers, Faith Hill, The Corrs, George Harrison, Ronnie Hawkins, Chicago, Earth, Wind &amp; Fire, Chaka Khan, Filippa Giordano, Laura Pausini, Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Brandy, Luis Miguel, Fred Norris, Richard Marx, Mariah Carey, Destiny&#039;s Child, Vanessa Williams, Anne Murray, Olivia Newton-John, Andrea Bocelli, Deborah Blando, Lisa Marie Presley, Lara Fabian, Dolly Parton, Julio Iglesias, Gordon Lightfoot, Madonna, All-4-One, Ricardo Montaner, Al Jarreau, Kenny Loggins, Natalie Cole, Yolanda Adams, The Tubes, Peter Cetera, Latoya London, and many others.

Quite a resume. And he wants to work with Katharine.

Shove that up your ignorant cakehole pattispage and choke on it.

Oops - shouldn&#039;t mock the mentally ill. Pattispage&#039;s obsession with younger women/older men comes from the time she spent on the street as a teenager. She thinks that all men over 40 must be like the Johns she had to service for $5 a job. LOL.</description>

		<description>I think I&#039;ll go with David Foster and Andrea Bocelli&#039;s opinions of Katharine&#039;s musical gifts, they have won multiple awards between them for the success of their musical careers. What is Simon Cowell? Head clown at a 3 ring circus.

Even if you want to discard everything said by the celebrity guests on Idol as part of the script, you cannot ignore the fact that David and Bocelli have repeatedly asked Katharine to join them in their musical endeavors long after Idol. 

And who is that playing Piano at Katharine&#039;s wedding? Why it is none other than David Foster once again.

From Wikipedia:
David Foster has won fourteen Grammy Awards (three for producer of the year) and has been nominated a total of forty-three times. He has been nominated three times for an Academy Award for Best Song and won a Golden Globe Award for the song “The Prayer” from the film Quest for Camelot and he has been named BMI&#039;s &quot;Songwriter of the Year&quot;.

I think his credentials speak for themselves.</description>
