    20/20 Vision

    June 16, 2009 /

    Adam Lambert was on 20/20 last week to discuss his recent interview with Rolling Stone magazine. The interview, with Chris Connelly, touched on his run on Idol, growing up, and, of course, coming out. If you missed the interview, have no fear – check it out below, along with an exclusive interview with Lambert’s brother that did not air on the original telecast. Also, Adam recently won a Young Hollywood award for Artist of the Year, which was presented to him by Idol judge, Kara DioGuardi. This news made us wonder, can you even be nominated for an Artist of the Year award without an album? And, “Wait…who won Idol…

    The Return of Zack Morris

    June 15, 2009 /

    I know this is a non-music related post, but it’s nostalgic! In his attempts to reunite the Saved By The Bell cast, Jimmy Fallon had Mark Paul Gosselar on his show Monday night. Check out this hilarious interview where Gosselar stopped by in character of Zack Morris, high tops, tight rolled jeans, cell phone and all. Now, that’s a blast from the past! Gosselar also confirms that he and Elizabeth Berkley, Jesse Spano, will be in for the reunion, leaving just Tiffani Thiessen (Kelly) and Dustin Diamond (Screech) left to confirm their appearances. We sure can’t wait to see Tiffani Thiessen’s return to our television sets – I hope she…

    Three’s Company

    June 13, 2009 /

    The season just ended and already Idol contestants are getting signed to record deals. It comes as no surprise that Kris Allen would be signed to a deal, since he won this year’s competition, but it was confirmed this week that he will be joining Britney Spears, Ciara and fellow Idol, Jordin Sparks, on Jive Records. Kris announced his excitement in joining Jive’s roster, as well as saying he can’t wait to start work on his album, which will feature music much like what we heard from him on the show. Also, not surprisingly, Adam Lambert will be recording an album for release in the fall/early winter, which will feature…

    "I’m A Little Bit Square"

    June 12, 2009 /

    As she promised, Tiffanie Anderson, officially announced her departure from Girlicious yesterday on her YouTube page. In the announcement, she explains that she was let go due to a change in the direction of the group – making the group less urban, which is why she was initially chosen. Less urban? So she was let go due to the color of her skin? I guess Chrystina is safe because she’s only half “urban”. And Tiffanie says she found out about the “new direction” and new label (??) at the airport. Really? Wonder how that all went down and I wish someone would have caught that moment for YouTube. Tiffanie stayed…

    Circus Continues

    June 10, 2009 /

    Britney Spears has brought fans her “Circus” worldwide for the majority of 2009. The Queen of Pop, who has been in London for the past few days, added some new remixes and songs to her set, which initially launched in the U.S.. The most noticeable change is the addition of “Gimme More”, which was unbelievably absent from her U.S. tour dates. And now, The Circus Tour, which has become the highest grossing in the United States in 2009, has been extended! In September, Britney will make her back to the U.S. for a second leg of the tour, then she will take over Australia for the first time in November.…

    It’s No Surprise

    June 9, 2009 /

    American Idol runner up, Adam Lambert, continues to take the spotlight off this year’s winner, Kris Allen, as he graces the cover of Rolling Stone this week. The new issue promises to feature “The Liberation of Adam Lambert”, which apparently means focusing on his sexuality, rather than his career. And it comes as no surprise, at least to the majority of the population, when Adam Lambert announced in the article his sexual preference, saying “I don’t think it should be a surprise for anyone to hear that I’m gay”. Lambert says he’s proud of who he is, but that he’s “trying to be a singer, not a civil right leader”.…

    JoBro Dissed by YouTube

    June 8, 2009 /

    Last week the Idol Insider brought you a clip of the oldest Jonas Brother, Joe, doing his best impression of Beyonce’s “Single Ladies”. Well, if you didn’t get a chance to see it, you likely never will. After the video became knowledge of those running the popular video clip website, YouTube suspended the JoBro’s profile. Beyonce’s label, SonyBMG, were not pleased that the Hollywood Records artist was using music in his video without receiving the proper permissions to do so. So, sorry ladies, I guess you’ll have to keep waiting to see Joe Jonas running around in high heels. Well, at least until his drag show opens in Vegas, but…

    We reported earlier this week that Tiffanie from, the Robin Antin created girl group, Girlicious was rumored to to have been ousted. Now, after many cryptic messages via the girls’ Twitter accounts, Robin Antin confirmed that the Girlicious girls are moving on without Tiffanie Anderson. On Antin’s twitter this morning, she announced, “Nic, Nat, and Chrys r getting ready to record a new single, new video, & tour the world”. Tiff’s name was absent from the list and then to follow it up, the group’s MySpace account has been updated to reflect the three remaining members, including cropping Tiffanie out of the promotional photos that once featured all four girls…
