Now, we've never heard this girl sing. But we've read her Facebook. And so far, can we say, we love her. If she's as fun as we think she is, we're hoping for her inclusion in the top 24. From her Facebook:

Alex sure has a voice on her. She's a pretty good singer, but she also overdoes it a bit. So she could either be someone who sings well or someone who completely overindulge and annoy us. Time will tell. She was spotted at the Idol auditions with braids in her hair, like in this picture.

There are some strong VFTW vibes coming from this one. In the video above, he apparently wins "Grand Champion" at a vocal competition. The guy can barely stay on key throughout the song. So will he become a VFTW favorite, or will he be cut before we even see him on camera?

The judges are going to love this one since she prefers to sing terrible songs. Will she be the requisite teenage girl who makes it to the finals?

It's another Gaspy, but seemingly more annoying and with a country twang. But if the judges start to become irritated with him, he could make a good VFTW pick.


American Idol 9 Hollywood Contestant - Katie Bernard

This video of Katie Bernard, who apparently has made it to Hollywood for American Idol season 9, is too VFTW-tastic not to share it. From the dress to the hair to the facial expressions, this girl is an early frontrunner for our votes because she's just too awesome for words. Loving her!

UPDATE: Video's gone. Looks like we're on the right track.


A poster at IdolForums claims that American Idol season 9's Hollywood hopefuls will look familiar to us. Not because they are all plants like in season 7, but because many of them have made it to Hollywood before. Among those to watch out for in Hollywood according to this poster:


This is awesome news! Digital Spy is reporting that our favorite terrorizing twins, John and Edward, are performing the "Ghostbusters" theme as their song selection on the upcoming episode of the X Factor. And yes, they'll be wearing the Ghostbuster outfits. We hope this is true. John and Edward are now in their 5th week of competition. One more week, and they'll be tied with Sanjaya's VFTW record of longevity.
