The rumor is that AI might be one judge short next season, and no, it’s not Simon Cowell but Paula Abdul. Her manager said that she might not be back. This is quite surprising as Paula recently said that she definitely would be back and the show’s producers stated that she was integral to the show as well. Publicity stunt? We’ll find out soon enough.

The 7th woman to win the Academy of Country Music’s Entertainer of the Year award, Carrie Underwood has wow-ed the music industry ever since she was discovered. Her last album, Carnival Ride, rose to the charts, and fans have been waiting on a follow up album for quite some time now. The good news is that this country girl will ride again, with her third (yet untitled) album, which is to be released in November of this year. I will be among the first to get it!

Gene Simmons: Adam May Have Hurt His Career
KISS front man Gene Simmons thinks that Adam’s admitting that he is gay “effectively stopped the handsome 20-something’s career in its tracks.” I think that Simmons just might be wrong.

Some alpha males may be put off, but I am pretty sure that his being gay has not total ruined his career.
