There is a new American Idol and it’s Kris Allen. KRIS ALLEN, ladies and gentlemen.
Gotta give props to Adam Lambert because he was really a superstar all throughout the competition and he brought AI to a whole new level –singing and stage presence –wise.
Kris Allen despite missing some key notes in Kara DioGuardi’s written song, No Boundaries, triumphs as the last man standing in Season 8 of American Idol. Even if Adam did a better performance hitting the notes, I feel that Kris’ acoustic rock voice suits the song better than Adam’s mellow Aerosmith voice.
Other than the star-studded guest list that includes Kiss and Queen, Kara DioGuardi made the season finale more memorable with an epic showdown between her and “bikini girl” Katrina Darrell. Not so long ago during the auditions, Kara pointed out that Katrina didn’t hit the right notes. Katrina made a sarcastic rebuttal that distressed Kara to showing her how it’s properly done.
At the end of the singing duel, Kara unveiled her bikini body by unbuttoning her trench dress to flash a black string bikini she had on underneath. Ryan commented that by flashing the world at the end of the song, Kara won a bet and a donation to charity.
In other news, Hayden Christensen (no, not the infamous local doctor with scandalous videos) and Djimon Honsou stars in Mandrake the Magician adaptation. Anakin Skywalker of Star Wars is supposed to do the lead role in the film “Mandrake.” MTV news however reports that a representative from Hayden’s camp denies that he has anything to do with the film.
The movie co-star Djimon Honsou will follow Hayden’s character, an “underground magician and escapologist” who is approached by the CIA to do some work after “a daring escape from an SUV that has been dropped out of an plane at the Burning Man Festival. Hounsou will presumably be taking on the role of Mandrake’s assistant, Lothar. I love Djimon Honsou in Blood Diamond and I cannot wait to see another film with him in it.
The Zeitgeist and Moon movies are the two movies I want to watch soon. Have you seen Zeitgeist?
Michael Jackson’s Doctor Investigated
Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agents and LAPD detectives searched the residence and office of Conrad Murray, each location a week apart. Murray is Michael Jackson’s doctor who is believed to have given Jackson a lethal dose of anesthetic Propofol.
Propofol is used to induce unconsciousness in patients ahead of major surgery. In hospitals, only a trained anesthesiologist is allowed to administer the drug under strict monitoring conditions.
TMZ.com reported that Murray had told police in an interview he gave Jackson Propofol via an intravenous drip. The website reported police believe Murray may have fallen asleep while the drug was being administered, and awoke to find the singer already dead.
If Murray did inject Jackson with Propofol negligently, he can be charged with homicide.
The federal agents and police came to his office a week earlier with a search warrant seeking evidence for the “offense of manslaughter”
The LA Coroner’s office reported that the toxicology result is due by the end of this week.
