Label bosses at RCA and Sony BMG were allegedly unimpressed with her latest efforts on her forthcoming album ‘My December’ - but the American Idol star has laughed off the claims.
Rumors circulated earlier this month that Clarkson had returned to the studio to re-record the tracks, but the star admits she’s used to the negative publicity.

She tells MTV.com, “This time everybody made a big deal about the record, but that’s happened every record.”

“I’ve never once compromised myself. I don’t think you should, that’s when you start to lose fans and credibility. I think you definitely need to keep doing what you love, because I’m the one that needs to sing it every night.“

After over 45 million votes, we’ve come to a rather obvious result for the night. It’s Lakisha Jone’s time to go. Somehow, we all had it coming. American idol is getting more predictable by the minute.

We’ll see you on tour, Kiki!

Wow, every webmaster’s dream is to have a lot of web traffic, be famous, be a buzz maker, and eventually earn from it. But if a webmaster is getting a lot of shout outs and TV guestings because of his website…Man! that is way cool… It’s the greatest indication that the site has ARRIVED.

Votefortheworst.com has been around for a few years now. The webmaster, Dave Della Terza, has well maintained the integrity of the show by seriously picking the worst possible singer who’s still in the running on every season of American Idol. This year was probably his most momentous of all. His latest pick was Sanjaya Malakar, and boy did he get a lot of web traffic just by picking this guy. He even got the support of, no less than, Howard Stern, the mighty SYRIUS DJ. And now, he’s been on the David Letterman show. Talk about being famous, huh! Dave surely knows what he’s doing.

Kudos to you, Dave. There’s nothing more ego-feeding than the attention of the American Idol producers themselves. Applauses to you, fella

But now that our dear Sanjaya is no longer in the running, you might want to start thinking of the latest victim…er… lucky one.

Now, we know how to get first base with the “Idols”. At least we got a visual head start from someone on the audience during the latest performance night.

All you have to do is to cry and cry like CRAZY for no reason (well, it helps if you’re overly sensitive, or just greatly awed with the IDOLS and everything that’s happening, this crying stint will be easy). Then, after overly sobbing for quite a while, the cameras will notice you and focus on you (like every 10 seconds) amidst every IDOL performance. The key is, TO BE A SCENE STEALER. Catch the attention of the camera men and the director, and show just how gaga you can be for the show.

Okay, okay, about 4 IDOLS have sung and you’re still crying like you’re watching an ultra mega drama movie. Nice. Ryan Seacrest will then ask one of the IDOLS to go near you and give you a hug (with hopes that the tears will be replaced with big grins). But no, the exposure, still too little, should not be over yet. So you go on and cry like crazy again for the cameras to see. You really have to be emphatic that the show is really sooooo good you can just cry tears of joy the whole day.

And then, after the show, as a form of reward, you can get to the IDOL stage and get hugs and attention from all the IDOLS. Sweet! First base to the idols and worldwide exposure, SWEET! NO SWEAT!

Okay, enough of the sattire. I think this girl was just really overwhelmed and happy to be present in the live performance. I would’ve cried myself (but not as much as she did, let’s keep that straight). I think she’s sweet. Let’s just hope this girl won’t be some “wasted” superstar (pornstar) when she grows up.
