Life goes on at the top of the Billboard HOT 100 singles chart without the Season Six Miss American Idol finalists. Rihanna is have a great year - again - and Fergie is still cranking out the hits. Meanwhile....
Daughtry drops from 7 to 11 with Home.
Carrie Underwood drops from 10 to 13 with Before He Cheats.
Kelly Clarkson drops from 11 to 17 with Never Again.
And worst of all, both Blake Lewis and Jordin Sparks drop out of the Top 40 completely! Sweet, wonderful, talented teen queen Jordin Sparks was just crowned the Season Six Miss American Idol a few weeks ago and she is already a has-been. Her debut single, This Is My Now, has gotten lost in the shuffle. There is still no opportunity to pre-order the physical single at amazon.com and she's getting no airplay.
It seems like this year the producers of American Idol made an exclusive deal with i-tunes. Music from all 12 of this years top finalists are available for download. It just doesn't make any sense to me. What did Jordin really win this year? Her music is available with all the other 12 contestants. That doesn't seem right. I can understand having some of Blake's songs available since he earned a place in the top 2, but not everyone else. It has become very boring having everyone's music available. In my opinion, Jordin and Blake are being cheated out of the prize this year.
Oh well. Life goes on. We'll see what happens next week. I guess I'm still optimistic this can turn around....
