RECAP: "AMERICAN IDOL" - EPISODE 3 (MILWAUKEE AUDITIONS)

In this episode, the auditions go to Milwaukee, Wisconsin for the first time.

Walt Disney's PRINCESS... KE$HA??

Ke$ha is undeniably one of the hottest pop performers today. If she were to be offered a lead role in a Disney princess movie, would it turn out like this (thanks to the guys at FunnyOrDie.com)?

I mean, a movie soundtrack'd by Ke$ha? I'm up for it anytime! ;)

RECAP: "AMERICAN IDOL" - EPISODE 1 (NEW JERSEY AUDITIONS)

Tonight was the premiere episode of Season 10 of American Idol, where we're seeing a few changes that will change the game after 9 seasons: one, replacing Simon Cowell, Kara DioGuardi and Ellen DeGeneres are Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler and multi-hyphenate Jennifer Lopez as judges, with Randy Jackson taking the helm as senior judge; and two, the age limit has changed: the lower age limit has dropped to 15 (from 16 in the past seasons), while the upper age limit stays the same at 28. I blame you, Justin Bieber.

DOES IT HURT TO BE NICE?

Last week, a teacher asked for someone to bring over a pair of speakers from the other room, since the ones in the room we were in were not working. Not wanting to get off their butts and walk, everyone yelled out my name, and I was the one who went. A few moments later, the teacher asked for someone to help her with the connections, and everyone yelled my name again. I did help, and got the speakers working successfully.

TOP 5: SONGS THAT I LIKE, BUT DON'T DARE TO TELL ANYONE THAT I LIKE THEM

Most of the time, I'm really open about the songs that I'm obsessed over at the time. However, there are some songs that I like and somehow feel that I should not tell anyone that I like them.
