Interestingly, one of the bigger recent movie hits that was a musical was "Dreamgirls"---and that had an American Idol connection too LOL. If those guys keep at it they will end up revitalizing the movie musical too. For some time Broadway has been hiring Idol alumni--this started out for pure financial reasons to sell tickets, but at the end of the day American Idol is feeding Broadway new stars as well.I can understand their reluctance to make too many changes for a winning formula whether it be format or personalities. Idol ratings generally are higher than ever before this year--never mind that Randy prefaces everything with "Dawg", Paula acts spaced out quite a bit of the time and Simon is more caustic than ever. No doubt the producers are orchestrating the details of 99 % of the bad behavior. Chris Daugherty, one of last year's losers, now has a debut album with his band and it has already sold 1.7 million copies.
Whatever you might thnk of the silly antics, tune in this year just to hear Lakisha and Melinda sing...
If Lawrence Welk were alive today, he would be watching every week in search of just the right American Idol participant to add to his show too--you know, one of the quieter ones with spot on pitch that most of the others had more or less completely overlooked.
