DIVA Idols

The action on the Billboard Top 200 albums chart has all been downward lately. Season 5 Miss American Idol 3rd runner up Chris Daughtry is making the best showing this week as he's hanging on in the top 10 at #9 with his latest release, Leave This Town.

This aren't looking so well for the latest release from Season 6 Miss American Idol winner, Jordin Sparks. After only five weeks on the chart she has fallen all the way down to #63 with Battlefield. Season 1 Miss American Idol winner, Kelly Clarkson, is at #80 with her former #1 album All I Ever Wanted, but that's not so bad after 24 weeks on the chart.

Over on the Billboard HOT 100 Singles chart, Jordin is still putting in the best showing of the bunch with her single, Battlefield, logging in at #16. Turns out that her peak position with this track so far has been #10 a few weeks ago.

Chris Daughtry had to settle for peaking at #15 with his single, No Surprise, but this week it is slipping down to #23. Kelly Clarkson's 3rd single from All I Ever Wanted, Already Gone, is taking a very slow climb up the chart resting at #65 this week. Another Idol represented on the Billboard HOT 100 this week is Season 7 Miss American Idol winner, David Cook. His single, Come Back To Me only managed to peak at #63 and this week it has dropped down to #80.

My favorite Idol song still making a splash is from Season 5 finalist, Kellie Pickler, whose incredibly fun and catchy Best Days Of Your Life is just behind David Cook at #81.

I have to strongly recommend checking out the latest from Jordin Sparks and Kellie Pickler. These are both great representations of the finest in pop music!

While the action on the charts isn't the most stellar news, the VH1 Divas concert is shaping up to be quite the American Idol extravaganza. Kelly Clarkson is already announced as the headlining diva, but she will now be sharing the spotlight with both Jordin Sparks and Paula Abdul!!!

Paula may have been dropped as a judge on the next season of Idol, but VH1 Divas has asked her to be the host of this year's concert. It's turning out to be a CAN'T MISS night of Idol DIVA entertainment! Circle September 17th on your calendar and set the TiVo to record this show you will surely be watching again and again.
