How Do American Idols Pick Their Songs?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, FOX, American Idol, Gossip, Rumors, Spoilers,
If you watch American Idol, you know that the judges do a lot of harping about “song choice.” We’ve seen it make or break many a contestant, and we know it’s a pretty big deal. It’s hard to vote for a song you hate, right?
But how do the American Idols pick their songs? Well, you see, they get a list every week. And we’ve got the same list of songs the Top 10 received for their R&B week performances, which will air live Tuesday. Will your favorite be one of the picks?
This week’s list includes a mix of decades and performers, from Al Green to Alicia Keys, tunes like “Can’t Get Enough of Your Love” and “My Prerogative.” You can read the entire list (122 songs in all) at Vote for the Worst.

American Idol 9: Tuesday Performance Spoilers
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, FOX, American Idol, Gossip, Rumors, Spoilers,
UPDATE: New sources report that the theme has been changed from Teen Idols to Billboard Hits, so it looks like we’ll be hearing a random collection of chart-toppers…again. Why did they change the theme? There’s no official word from the American Idol camp, but we’re guessing the original theme was just too ambiguous.
Rumor has it that the Top 11 will be singing to the theme of Teen Idols on Tuesday, something of an ambiguous category. Are we talking early Spears, Aguilera and Timberlake? Or are we looking more along the lines of Justin Bieber? We’ll just have to wait and see - or, dig up more spoilers!
Either way, check out all our other American Idol 9 posts.

Glee to Go (Lady) Gaga
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Music, Prime Time, FOX, Gossip, Spoilers,
Attendees at PaleyFest 2010’s Glee event got a number of juicy spoilers concerning the show’s remaining episodes.
What musical moments can fans look forward to when the program returns on April 13? A Madonna-themed episode, duets with Neil Patrick Harris…and even a Lady Gaga cover.
“She’s arguably the most important pop star right now,” co-creator Ryan Murphy said about the “Bad Romance” singer. The unnamed tune will appropriately be featured in an episode about the “power of theatricality.” (Let’s hope lesbian prison porn is not included.)

First Look: 90210 Introduces the Lesbian Kiss
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip, Spoilers,
The CW may have had 90210 on hold for months now, but they’re ready to bring back the show with a bang.
Yes, girl-girl kissing is nothing we haven’t seen a thousand times by now. (How many years ago did The O.C. do that?) And yes, Melrose Place has already gone there this year (and it hasn’t exactly helped their ratings). And heck - it’s so fashionable even the ladies of the Desperate Housewives have tried it a few times.
But this particular smooch involves Rumer Willis (you know, Demi Moore and Bruce Willis’ daughter), so it’s got to be considered a bit more interesting….right? Eh.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, CBS, Gossip, Spoilers,
Did someone get a hold of James Franco’s idea bin?
She may have already racked up four Academy Award nominations, but that doesn’t mean Julianne Moore is afraid to star on primetime - or even daytime - television.
Earlier this season, the actress appeared alongside Alec Baldwin in a few episodes of 30 Rock. Now she’s scheduled to return to the show that helped launch her career: As the World Turns.

Preview Kathy Griffin’s Appearance on SVU
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, NBC, Gossip, Spoilers, Video,
Kathy Griffin has always been vocal about loving her “gays,” so it’s only appropriate that she defend them in primetime.
On next Wednesday’s episode of Law & Order: SVU, the comedienne will guest as Babs Duffy - the president, founder, spokeswoman of a lesbian-rights organization. Despite the serious tone of the drama, Griffin still manages to infuse a bit of her famous humor and salty language in the scenes included here. (She also gets a chance to check out A.D.A. Alexandra Cabot.)
For the full episode, make sure your DVRs are set to 10:00 on March 3—SVU‘s new hour. (Thanks, Jay!)

First Look: Carrie Underwood and Jennifer Lopez on HIMYM
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, CBS, Gossip, Spoilers, Video,
I can almost hear Britney Spears saying it right now: “This How I Met Your Mother show is so fun, y’all. You should try acting on it too!”
In the next few weeks, the CBS comedy will be welcoming a few more of the music industry’s biggest names. First up, Carrie Underwood.
Although she sings about cheating men when she’s on the stage, Underwood’s pharmaceutical sales rep character is the one who may be stringing Ted (Josh Radnor) along. You can see more clips from that March 1 appearance - including Carrie dressed as a flight attendant and a cavewoman - after the jump.
