Was It A Fair Fight?

Following last week’s shocking American Idol finale where Kris Allen was crowned the champion of season eight, the New York Times reports that one of the show’s corporate sponsors, AT&T, may have given the winner an unfair advantage.

Celebs React to Prop. 8 Decision

George Takei and his longtime love, Brad Altman, are still legally wed. So are Ellen DeGeneres and Portia De Rossi. Both couples tied the knot during the five-month window when same-sex marriage was legal in California.

But the state Supreme Court's decision Tuesday to uphold Proposition 8, the gay-marriage ban approved by voters in November, made legal nuptials impossible going forward, and Hollywood isn't happy.

Gay.com Reader's Choice: Adam Lambert

If it were just up to Gay.com users, Adam Lambert would be crowned American Idol at the end of season eight, but not by a wide margin. We polled users and rocker Lambert pulled in around 53% of the vote over competitor Kris Allen. This reflects the general voting which has reportedly been very tight all season.

Some of the comments expressed a choice based on pure talent:

Simon Crowns Adam...Almost

Are there boundaries to declaring the next "American Idol" champ early? Apparently, nothing can contain the likes of Adam Lambert — not even a difficult new ballad co-written by Kara DioGuardi.

Simon Cowell all but crowned the California glam rocker the winner of Tuesday night's final performance show over Kris Allen, the acoustic guitar player who struggled mightily to stay in tune on "No Boundaries," co-written by the fourth "Idol" judge.

Lambert had no such trouble with the upper-register pop ballad, and Cowell said he genuinely believed the show had found a true star in the 27-year-old theater actor.

Catching Up with Kim Deal From the Breeders

If musicians were only as dynamic in Q&A's as they are on record, then music interviews would remain as unforgettable as classic albums.  But those are few and far between.

During one recent interview with a world-renowned pop star, I asked a simple question:  "What part of the creative process do you enjoy most when making a new album?"  Granted, the question was a bit cliche, but hardcore music fans tend to be interested in those kinds of things. After three minutes of silence, I thought we'd been disconnected.
