Todd Bridges In the House!
Or did I just dream that?
No, no, I'm pretty sure I saw Willis lurking in the American Idol audience last night, leering at the Unsinkable Kat McPhee as she titillated the foot-fetish community by tearing off her pumps.
Re Elliott Yamin: I'm gonna miss the Amish Leprechaun, mainly because my chances to use the words "Amish Leprechaun" are coming to an end.
But also, in a rather sweet final twist, I found new respect for Elliott last night. After all, did you see that "first pitch" he threw at the welcome-home baseball game? Impressive arm, especially when you switch to the Devil Rays game during commercials. Plus I'm a sucker for all that Mom-son stuff.
And finally...the Forever Fiancee says that all the people who voted for Elliott (Claymates, Moms, etc.) would NEVER vote for that curvaceous femme fatale Kat McPhee. By that logic, Taylor Hicks is your 2005 Idol champ. Sounds good to me.


Sean Daly is the pop music critic for the St. Petersburg Times. His CD collection -- from Journey to Dylan, Prince to U2, Public Enemy to Stan Getz -- is much bigger and better than yours.
I thought the same thing- damn, the little leprechaun can throw! Truth be told, I actually like Elliott (and no, I'm NOT a Clay Aiken fan)and thought he was one of the few performers on the show who wasn't full of himself and could really sing. The big question- why would Idol's producers want to point out that Todd Bridges was in the crowd?? I thought it was rather blatant that the producers were pushing for Taylor to be in the final 2.. and that they obviously have a thing for Rebecca Romaine (kidding) after they let Taylor sneak in an extra performance via her 'impromptu' request.. Didn't she sound like Paula last night when she was cross-promoting her new flick? "Oh you've entertained us.. gush, gush." But Todd Bridges??? Who's next- Scott Baio?

Yes - that was me. I'm Back! Gotta out of jail and just signed a deal to fight Screech from Saved by the Bell on Fox in June in Celebrity Boxing 17. Anybody know where I can get some crack?
