Dose Of Sanjaya
Seven seasons of American Idol has passed and so far, we have a bunch of people to report about. Whether they've disappeared from everyone's memory or have permanently placed themselves in everyone's consciousness, we have a lot to talk about when it comes to American Idol. Right now, there's a crowd of AI alums who are struggling to keep their careers afloat, with a few successfully keeping the spotlight on themselves. As for David Cook, the future is surely bright. Others like Sanjaya will have to keep trying. Project Runway, probably? Still, others like Katherine McPhee has fought to keep her career as glamorous as she is. Now that the summer tour is nearing, let's check back on some of our favorite American Idols.
David Cook. Is there anything else to say? He's on fire! Less than two weeks after he was crowned American Idol of 2008, he landed a recording deal and was able to land 3rd place in the Hot 100 charts, following Leona Lewis and the first single from Lil' Wayne's “The Carter 3.†The studio songs of the songs he sang in the competition have been selling like peanuts, with 11 songs currently on the Hot 100 charts and 17 total on the Top 200 charts.
Clay Aiken. So far, he's released another album and artificially inseminated his 50-year-old friend and record producer named Jaymes Foster. Nothing much going on. Fans should be happy for him as TMZ reports that they are having a baby boy. So soon?
Sanjaya Malakar. He could seriously be mistaken for a valet parking person. Anyway, it seems that Sanjaya has still been keeping himself busy. With what, you ask? He recently shot a Nationwide Insurance commercial for their “Life Comes at You Fast†campaign, which he flew to India for. The commercial sees Sanjaya going to an Indian monastery seeking advice. The spiritual advisor then tells him to come up with a retirement plan and change his hairstyle. The question now liesâ€"will he follow this piece of advice?
