O.K., I admit it. I love American Idol. And this year has been great, thanks to the unbelievably talented Adam Lambert. I cannot believe that he is not already a star. And I was just shocked tonight when he was in the bottom 3. This must be some kind of joke...to keep everyone watching, since we all know he is in a class alone, a true ARTIST. If you did not call in this week, shame on you!

The last time I enjoyed the show and contestants as much, was 2006, the year Taylor Hicks won. I was fortunate enough to go to Birmingham, AL to see the American Idol tour. Birmingham is Taylor's hometown, and the Soul Patrol was out in full force. One of Taylor's fans is depicted in the photo.

If you are not an American Idol fan, oh well...you are missing out on some fun....
