Glocksen is still rockin'!

Mjsbigblog just posted Gina Glocksen's, a season six compeitor's song, "List of Regrets". They say it was inspired by Pink. I think it has the same energy as Pink's music, but it sounds different vocal wise. Pink has a very distinctive voice. I can't think of anyone else that has a voice like hers. The background music is kind of similar though. I love it. Gina Glocksen was my second favorite contestant on season six of American Idol (Blake was of course my number one favorite that season). I'd love to buy her album when it comes out. Give her song a listening over at mjsbigblog

News on past idol contestants

Along with all of the spoilers, there has been a lot of news about past idol contestants lately. Anyone remember Nikko Smith from season 4? He's planning on releasing his first ablum, "Revolution" soon. You can hear a few of his songs on his myspace, I'm listening to "Stickin" right now. It's ok, not great though. I predict that Nikko will be another American Idol flop. He wasn't too popular back in season 4 and now no one is going to remember who he is.

There's also news on Season 6's Gina Glocken. She just got married to her fiance. Haley Scarnato and Jordin Sparks were her bridesmades. Gina, Jordin, and Haley all look so pretty! I'm so happy for Gina! But I'd be even happier if she released an album! She was one of my favorite contestants in season 6!





Kristy Lee Cook who recently got dropped from Arista Records is also working on getting a recording contract with Universal. She stated that Carrie Underwood, who is also signed to Arista, may have been the reason as to why she was dropped. Makes sense to me. I mean, Kristy Lee Cook is just ok Carrie Underwood is great. Wouldn't you rather spend your money on someone that's great instead of just mediocre?


There is also news on The first American Idol, Kelly Clarkson. Her new single off of her upcoming ablum is "My Life Would Suck Without You". With a title like that I'm not feeling to confident that this song will be a sucess. Mjsbigblog also posted a picture of the single's cover. It barely even looks like Kelly. It actually looks more like a provocative Carrie Underwood. I don't like it at all. What happened to the sweet innocent Kelly Clarkson?
