David Cook "You'll Always Be My Baby" video

After 3 1/2 hours on YouTube, this video already had well over 20,000 hits, so it's pretty safe to say there's a bit of a buzz about Cookie's American Idol performance of Mariah Carey's "You'll Always Be My Baby." Personally, I though it was like eating a marshmallo …

American Idol recap 4/15: Idol gets Mariah Carey-ed away

Mariah Carey-ed away. See what I did there? I have to admit, I went into tonight 's Top 7 Mariah Carey-infused episode fully expecting a suckfest. But thanks to some interesting (you might even say wacky) performances, it was a good watch. Here's how it went down.

Idol Elimination 4/2: Goodbye Malubay! Yes, I went with the obvious subject line joke. Sue me!

3/19 American Idol results: is there a nurse in the house?

After the Beatles Part Deux left me praying for a Merseyside mercy killing, it's good that this week is over. What's not good is that America threw the hot nurse out with the bathwater.
