To celebrate the fact that Nigel Lythgoe has quit his job on American Idol, we put together a tribute video that features many awesome moments in the first four years of Vote for the Worst. See if you recognize everyone in the video, and if not, read up on some VFTW history. It's good stuff. Enjoy, and here's to many more years of VFTW victories (that just happen to now be Nigel-free)!

Thoughts? At least the chorus is easy enough for her to remember. Country fans will buy anything, so it'll probably do pretty well no matter how bad/good it is.

Ever since she realized that she can't cry at the end of every performance, and that her "new shoes" have lost their initial buzz, former VFTW pick Kellie Pickler knew she needed a new gimmick for her upcoming CD. So she enlisted the help of Taylor Swift to record a duet called "Best Days of Your Life". Pickler insists that the track with Swift is about ex-boyfriends who wronged them. Look for the accompanying porn video a few weeks later called "Swift Pickles". But good for Pickler, we miss her little catchphrases now that Idol has become a contest on who can be the most boring.

Another week of Sanjaya, and this is great, because Sanjaya is now tied with Scott Savol and Kellie Pickler for longest running VFTW American Idol pick. If we can get him through next week, he'll be the all time record holder. And next week is Latin week. Sanjaya, please sing Shake Your Bon Bon. Please. We'll bake some cookies. Also, Michael Buble outed himself as a Worster when he said he was voting for Antonella. We'll need to get him the updated memo on Sanjaya, but thanks for the help, Michael! And is it not obvious that the producers are just sticking Haley in the bottom every week so people get mad at her and forget about Sanjaya? Lame tactic, producers. Lame.

The typical compliment to a great singer in this day and age is, "You should go on American Idol!" We all have friends that can sing circles around Katharine McPhee and Chris Daughtry, and many of them may have tried out to be on the most popular show in the country. Most of these great singers don't make it anywhere near Simon, Paula, and Randy.
