American Idol 8: Final Four Chosen Already?



Is the ongoing American Idol singing contest a farce and that the judges have already determined who will be in the final four? If you believe an unnamed Idol “insider”, the answer would be “Yes!!”

From the Daily Mail:

According to US reports, a member of staff claimed that producers and judges have earmarked Danny Gokey, Lil Rounds, Adam Lambert and Alexis Grace for the final four.

This is despite 11 contestants still remaining in the show.

The female staffer reportedly said: ‘Adam Lambert and Lil Rounds are better singers and musicians than Gokey and Grace, but they’re too much like past winners and successes.’

Adam is apparently too similar in style and sound to Chris Daughtry, the rock singer who came fourth in the fifth season of the show.

And Lil Rounds is said be a ‘dead ringer’ for Fantasia, who won the third season of American Idol in 2004.

The woman added: ‘The producers really want it to be Danny or Alexis. They think they’re very commercially viable, have a good image and a great story.’

Hmm. We’re not sure if this is true or not but we are inclined to believe that it is not. What do you think? Could it be true. Or is it just one of them conspiracy theories?

Well – that just blows your theory . . . Alexis is gone. I don’t think there are any Idols “ear marked” although I do believe there are those that the producers and even the judges expect to go to the final – and it is shocking when something happens (like last night).

Adam Lambert is a shoo in…there is nobody that can touch his range and look….go to Google and search Adam Lambert and you’ll see over 3,000,000 hits…not so much for Danny.
