Apparently Guitar Hero is sponsoring the Idol tour this summer. Whatever. The fascinating part of the article is this picture.

Everyone remember this when you think about trying out for AI8. You have to do this. And again... Carly manages to look like an idiot in every picture she appears in. 

Kristy was in the bottom but didn't go home, VFTW victory! Ramiele, sorry, but you were boring, and you should have given us those pots and pans. Kristy, keep whoring it up on stage and sassing Simon. But please, for the love of God, do something CRAZIER next week. This show is so boring, but since you only have us and horny teenage boys to thank for your safety, please play to us and sing Lil Mama's "Lip Gloss" for Idol Gives Head. We would love you. VOTE HARD, LONG, AND DEEP FOR KRISTY LEE COOK!

P.S. Is it any coincidence that now there are 7 plants left in the top 8? And the producers tried to trick the viewers into thinking past experience didn't matter. Only David Cook is not a plant, yet he might as well be. The plants have taken over. This is your fault, America. Bad job.
