'Idol' this-n-that
In advance of tonight's Top 12 show, I formally share these thoughts:
1) Chris Sligh and his pre-Idol band, Half Past Forever, are selling their debut CD, "Take a Chance on Something Beautiful," on Amazon.com for $12.97. Hmmm. Wholesome rock from the sarcastic dude.
2) The Philadelphia Inquirer suggests today that teenage girls are leaving the "Idol" fold. A little bit. Maybe. For now. While they're texting their boyfriends. But then how to explain the Haley Scarnato vote?
3) Diana Ross tonight. Which means I'm a little afraid that Sanjaya will sing "Endless Love."
4) I'll be doing a live "Idol" chat tomorrow at 1 p.m. on Boston.com. Please join me; deep dishing is encouraged.
