I am a huge fan of American Idol and have been watching the show since season one. Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood are the only really talented winners, Chris Daughtry should be in that group as well but sadly he ended his idol run finishing a disappointing 4th. Kelly's performance on the Idol Gives Back telethon special was so good, I do not think any other contestant can ever truly compete with her. Hopefullythis year, the true star, Jordin Sparks, will take the idol crown. I thought for a second we were going to have another daughtry moment this year when Seacrest let us all think that Jordin was going home, but thankfully that did not happen. You can view ALL of the American Idol Season 6 performances on SceneMaker.net in case you missed an episode or are located in country that gets Idol a little later on.
