Music Blogs

Good news, readers! This week makes it four out of our last six blogs that we've featured someone from American Idol in Framed! They say that only God is perfect, but--to be perfectly blunt--we're starting to wonder.

Ahem.

Even better, our featured star is our personal favorite Idol performer of all time--none other than Kellie Pickler, the Flower of the South. When Kellie was an Idol contestant, Framed was riveted by her performance of that one Queen song, the one where she was wearing that tight leather outfit. By which we mean, she sang it very, very well. That Kellie only came in sixth place that year was probably the greatest injustice in American pop culture since George W. Bush was denied a popular vote victory back in '00.

Now, of course, Kellie is a big star, and we couldn't be happier. Kellie has proven--proven, we say!--that any ol' "small town girl" (get it?) from North Carolina can become a great and acclaimed singer and not have to be a waitress. That's the lesson. This week, Kellie will be commenting on "I Wonder," the second smash single off her album, so do nothing but enjoy.

See you next week!

4 - "I mean, heck!  I can't even see the ground anymore!"

5 - "And I used to be able to actually button this jacket!"

6 - "But I wonder if, in gaining something, I also lost something."

7 - "Nah.  Jeez, they're all so jealous."

8 - "It may be silly, but I also wonder if the guys have noticed that, in several ways, I'm different. Better."

9 - "I bet they have! I probably could've won that silly contest show if I'd shown this side of myself."

10 - "Oh, well. I guess I'll open the show with ‘Dueling Banjos,' as it were."

11 - "Boy, I used to think singing was hard! Standing up is what's hard!"

12 - "Still, my plan is to be even bigger. This big!!"

13 - "So I guess I showed everyone who said my career would be a big bust!"
