Powerfox and Ponymane continue their entertaining videos with a tribute to an awesome 80's kids show. So far this year, Powerfox and Ponymane's YouTube channel is more entertaining than Idol. Maybe we should all watch that instead.

Vered "Didi" Benami, one of the newest additions to the top 24 spoiled list, is 23 years old and from Los Angeles. She used to work as a cage fighting hostess and recently posed in a bikini calendar for charity. After Didi's friend Rebecca was killed in 2005, Didi decided not to take life for granted and moved to LA to pursue a singing career. Hopefully she doesn't share this sob story on Idol, because we've had enough sob stories this year.

American Idol 7-9 contestant Angela Martin's mother, Viola Brown Martin, was reported missing just after Christmas. Radar Online is reporting that it's possible that Viola may have chosen to leave.

“We are not 100 percent sure that she is not off on her own accord,” Glenwood Police Sgt. Derek Peddycord told RadarOnline.com. “There are some sensitive issues that I am not allowed to discuss. Out of respect for the family, they’ve asked me not to have too much contact with the media.”

Either way, we hope Viola turns up safe and sound and everything works out for the Martin family.

By now, if you read this site, you should know American Idol is one big farce. A Chicago reporter caught another lie of Idol's last night. You know the segments where "Chicago" auditioners cursed out the cameras? Turns out there were palm trees in the background. That sure was Chicago, alright. What, Idol couldn't find 3-4 people in Chicago swearing? This just shows the people who work on the show are lazy and incompetent.

The Adam Lambert career trajectory is even funnier than we thought it could be. His performance on Oprah is one of the worst yet: chock full of cheesy faces, bad singing, and pathetic moves. And he's already moving onto his fourth single, "If I Had You", since the others have all failed so miserably. Queerty asks the question, Why Is Adam Lambert Suddenly an Unimpressive Singer? Nothing has changed, you're just finally noticing it. Only the Sparkle Cows still believe this guy can have a career.

Thankfully, Idol is back to an hour of crap, so you might not want to kill yourself when the episode is over. To be safe, we prescribe a trip to the play by play thread to vent your frustrations over plants and boredom. Make sure to look out for Crystal Bowersox and Angela Martin tonight.

Spoiler Alert for the Angela fans: She doesn't make it again this year, her mom went missing right before Hollywood, so it's yet another tragedy for her. Someone needs to buy this girl a horseshoe. Still no updates on her mom :(
