Blogger JD Matthews attended this past weekend’s Reality TV Convention, Nashville TN. He moderated the American Idol panel that took place Sunday. Idols in attendence: Season 6’s Dani McCulloch, Scott Savol, Will Makar, Lindsey Cardinale, Perla Meneses, The Maynard Triplets, Heather Cox and Jon Peter Lewis.
After spending the weekend with the Idols on hand, JD has come up with a list of juicy tidbits for you all to chew on.
Don’t shoot me, I’m only the messenger, mkay? Thanks a bunch.

Noooooooooooooooooo. LOL.
Heh - Scott Savol seems to be fixture at these things.
I wasn’t surprised by anything in this list - not a single item - with the exception of #20. The part about the suits etc. just doesn’t ring true.
I should think they’d be more worried about their own careers…or lack thereof. Heh. ;-)
I do hope JPL’s career takes off.
Who is Heather Cox?
I agree RSF.
Here you go Lu.
Heather Cox:

I’m shocked by some of these revelations. Shocked, I tell ya. (not) If I remember correctly, Heather Cox is the daughter of a minister. Also, I think she was one of the girls eliminated where Simon whispered something about watermelon and salad, to Paula, and, she repeated it during their elimination. I’m not sure about this, so, someone correct me if I’m wrong.
So, A lot of male contestants in Season 5 had a crush on Heather Cox ( including Taylor and Ace ) huh ?
Here’s a gallery of her pictures :

She could give Kat Mcphee a run for her money ( Depends on whether you prefer blondes or brunettes ).
I can’t help but think #12 is pretty sad. :(
I agree. What a cruel show in so many ways. You have incredible success and then obscurity for so many of them. Gideon is a sweet guy and I hope something better comes his way.
I’m kind of surprised JD’s “informants” said that Ace Young, Taylor Hicks, and Ryan Seacrest all had crushes on Heather Cox and that Ryan even asked her out but they failed to mention that she actually dated Anthony Fedorov briefly during season 5.
I don’t even have a clue about Heather Cox and several others he mentioned. I thought Brenna was the one they made look really bad so am not sure about that one. Interesting if they were really baiting the season 6 people to forget their lyrics. Several did early on.
Dani McCulloch? Perla Meneses? The Maynard Triplets?
WHO??
LOL, seriously.
Ryan Seacrest asked out a girl?
*shock*
Late to the party, but interesting dirt here! I’m glad to hear that JPL was nice and suspect that when he said John Stevens was disliked, he meant by the judges/critics. I could be talking out of my butt here, but I know he’s a spacey angel bebe and might have misheard a question.
I’m bummed to hear about Gedeon hustling at the AI6 auditions, but it could be worse, he could be Corey Clark!
