I have noticed on the intro to American Idol this year that Taylor Hicks isn’t shown on the background as all the past winners are. Am I just not seeing him?

I forgot to mention that Taylor said in his book it’s very hard to get crowds in arenas to maintain interest in you…particularly when someone has a sign saying they voted for Daughtry. P.S. Did you know Ruben has sold a few more CDs than Fantasia. I think most of the Idol voters and viewers are pop/country fans, not r&b. Doesn’t make sense. I’ve read AI is one of the few prime-time shows seen equally by blacks and whites.

I know Kat had a lot of promotions lined up for “Over It”, which according to her (and myself – however unimportant my opinion to others may be), it’s just not a song that’s going to move album sales. So if anything, I think RCA did a poor job in picking her first single. Secondly, there was little to no promotion for her second single, Love Story.
Kat’s contract was only set for one album anyway and after she mentioned how much she had to compromise on her debut album with the things that RCA wanted her to do and what she wanted to do, I think it pretty much already ended there.
I think she’ll be better off with another label and she’s already in talks with David Foster. And with the few movies that she’s doing as well, I think everything will work out just fine for her.

Seems like every Idol whose album isn’t successful always claims that the label didn’t support them – a poor excuse to me. I saw Kat promoted everywhere, she just lacked the formula that say Chris, Kelly, or Carrie had, which included having standout songs and an identity. You can’t mimic Beyonce or Mariah Carey because that genre is totally saturated for a newcomer, she should have targeted an older crowd, but even to do that she really had to clean up her act and hone your skills. She was way too inconsistent as a vocalist to compete with the incredible talent out there that didn’t need AI exposure to be successful.

i am not surprised that kath was dropped. her album was not succeesful. it seemed that bmg is clearing houses for the new idols. clay is the only runner up remaining from any season and i think that when his contract is up he will leave unless rca get their act together, after all he has been them now in his 6th year.
