Another American Idol has just been proclaimed!!!
Was it the paint salesman? or was it the single mom?

We’ve seen how Lee DeWyze (Mt. Prospect, IL) evolved from shy guy to a potential winner. And we’ve witnessed how Crystal Bowersox (Toledo, OH) remained consistently good throughout the season. They both auditioned from Chicago on the same day, both have come a long way in this competition, both of them are after one title and only less than 2% of the votes separated them… so, who won?

Dressed as high school kids, the Top 12 opened the show with “School’s Out” along with Orianthi, who looked so cute in her pigtails by the way, and Alice Cooper himself.

Other legendary acts who did cameos were The Bee Gees (who sang with Siobhan Magnus and Aaron Kelly), Michael McDonald (who sang with Michael “Big Mike” Lynch), Daryl Hall & John Oates (who sang with the top 6 guys), Chicago (who sang with Lee DeWyze) and Joe Cocker (who sang with Crystal and Lee).

There were also performances by season 8 winner Kris Allen, Christina Aguilera (with the top 6 girls), season 4 winner Carrie Underwood, and Janet Jackson (with the top 12); but my favorites of the night? Crystal Bowersox with Alanis Morissette (“Ironic” and “You Oughta Know”) and Casey James with Bret Michaels (“Every Rose Has Its Thorns”). Can you say perfect combinations?

ei guyz! sorry i haven’t updated for a week.. i’ve been pretty busy with school stuff…
hopefully i’ll be able to make a real post soon.. but for the meantime i’ll just make this quick random update…

i’m sure everyone of you has heard of Taylor Swift’s catchy tune of “You Belong With Me”. it’s got a cute music video and the song is just really entertaining to sing along with. well, for a while now, i’ve been addicted to this OPM acoustic cover of the song. this duet version is sung by Rey Cantong and Kaye Malana of the band Six Part Invention from the album Acoustic Duets.
i think it’s a great idea that they made this one a duet. it just fits so well! you can listen to the track below.. enjoy!

another update that i’m just dying to tell you guys about is this new product Apple just launched! the iPad!!!
OMG! it’s just soooo cool… check it out HERE!

oh well, i know i’ll never be able to afford one. so i’ll just feast my eyes with this unbelievable device and keep on dreaming what it must be like to actually experience its great features and specs.
