American Idol Season 2: Top 10

Jeanne — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 16:59:34 +0000

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 couldn’t wait to find out who won and then the day of the final performances, I went into labor. It was high-risk so I was in a special unit with no television for days. Naturally, having just had a preemie, I wasn’t even thinking about Idol so, I ended up finding out by chance when some nurses were chatting in my room. What an experience!

Here’s a Top 5 medley featuring Ruben, Clay, Kimberley Locke, Trenyce and Joshua Gracin to help bring back the memories!

Check out the Top 10. Who did you like best?

What Idols Are Colts Fans?

Considering I live in Indianapolis, an interesting news story on tonight’s local news was about which Idols are Colts fans as opposed to Chicago Bears fans.

Here are the Colts fans:

Chris Sligh
Jordin Sparks

I knew I liked both of them for a good reason.

Does Jordin Sparks remind anyone else besides me of Kimberley Locke?

Kimberley Locke’s New Album

Jason — Fri, 18 Aug 2006 02:57:05 +0000

Kimberly Locke’s sophomore album will be available in stores in October. Her second album, “Based On A True Story” will feature her current single, “Supawoman” which is available at iTunes. The album will be released by Curb Records.

I still haven’t purchased her first album, I’ve yet to see it in a store. Should probably just purchase it online. Kimberley was one of my favorite Idols of past seasons. She was 2nd runner-up, 3rd place on Season 2. She’s got a great voice and a great attitude. Being from Gallatin, TN, it’s funny to think I may have run into her sometime by accident when I was living in TN, my sister-in-law is from Gallatin too.

Kimberley’s blog is available on her official website, as well has having her own MySpace page of course.
