Instead of screaming on the soccer sidelines like an overzealous mother, I supported their desires and boosted their self confidence by listening, supporting and dreaming with them.

So, could the black and glistening guyliner, the crystal cage shoulder pads, the inky Kelly Osborne bangs, been a factor in Adam Lambert's loss on the Idol finale?
Paul Katz | Posted 06.21.2009 | Entertainment

I am sick of all this idle chatter. And then.... Last night millions (100? 50? Does it matter?) watched the annual crowning of their Idol on FOX. Ye...

Yes, homophobia is alive and well, which is why Lambert lost the ultimate title. Go ahead -- give me another reason.

Idol needs to look relevant: the problem with being the most-watched, biggest moneymaker on network TV? There's nowhere to go but down.

Well, Kris Allen gets to join Clay Aiken and David Archuleta as Idol contestants who never were put into the bottom two but failed to win it all.

Now that we're down to the final battle between Allen and Lambert, I've come to believe that American Idol is like great literature, offering us the classic conflict of good v.s. evil.
