Season 6 update:

Carrie Underwood and Kellie Pickler both attended the Idols Nashville concert last Sunday. You can watch lengthy interviews with hometown girl, Melinda Doolittle, Phil Stacey, Sanjaya Malakar, Chris Sligh and Jordin Sparks at WRKN’s Music City TV Blog.

Phil Stacey, Chris Richardson and Chris Sligh will all be moving to Nashville in the next couple of months. Phil Stacey plans to pursue a career in country music. He’ll be leaving the Navy once the tour is over (he had put in a request for an extra year of service, but with his changed circumstances will begin processing out when the tour is over). Chris Sligh will go the indie/rock route. Melinda Doolittle, would love to make an album where ”old school meets the new school, with a little funk, soul and jazz.” Melinda says she’s not “positive” if she’ll be staying with “the 19 folks.”

Sanjaya Malakar plans to move to LA, and get a tattoo. He says his album will be “R&B-based, with world infusion and jazz and rock energy.” Jordin Sparks, in the meantime, is a little cagey about her future plans, though she’d love to work with some Nashville writers. She’s previously worked with the Nashville-based Christian artist, Michael W. Smith (she hung out with him in Nashville before the show). Jordin has completed one song for her upcoming album, while Mr Ambitious, Blake Lewis has completed six.

Akon is on a Hit List and Idol Alum Camp Counselors Announced

Published by mj April 14th, 2007 in American Idol, Katharine McPhee, Chris Daughtry, Bucky Covington, Jon Peter Lewis, Carrie Underwood, Kimberley Locke, Carmen Rasmusen and Vonzell Solomon. 18 Comments

In Wednesday’s recap of the Top 8 results show, I wondered why a pre-recorded performance of Akon singing his hit “Don’t Matter” was inexplicably part of the show. me: except Ryan did mention it right before Akon’s appearance. Bad me, I missed it FFing through the boring Farmers Market segment. Ryan says the top 50 is culled from all the Billboard charts. Thanks Sarah.

Here is the reason. Akon’s performance is part of a new americanidol.com website feature called The Hit List. Fans who visit the site can vote for 5 favorite songs from a list of 50 songs posted on the site. The votes are tallied, and announced on the show.

Each week, an artist on the list will perform a song on the show. Some of the artists you can vote for: John Mayer, Justin Timberlake, Beyonce, Katharine McPhee, Carrie Underwood, Chris Daughtry and Pink.

I believe Robin Thicke is slated for one of the upcoming shows. He recorded a performance the same night as Akon.

Also, while poking around the official American Idol website, I found this. A partial list of Idol Alums who will participate in this summer’s brand-new Idol Camp has been announced. Spending part of the summer in the beautiful Massachusetts Berkshires will be, Bucky Covington, Carmen Rasmusen, Vonzell Solomon, Kimberley Locke and Jon Peter Lewis.
