Taylor made (it)

Recorded American Idol last night as I was round Al's and
watched it back this morning. Apparently, the media announced on UK TV who had won BEFORE the show was broadcast over here, which was out of order - luckily I hadn't heard the result.
It was amazing how many stars they managed to get onto the show - Dionne Warwick, Burt Bacharach, Prince, Toni Braxton (although she was pretty rough I thought), Mary J Blige and Meatloaf. It was hugely entertaining and a gob-smacking 63 million votes were cast. I wasn't really bothered who won this year because Chris was my favourite and he unexpectedly exited
two weeks ago - he was so clearly the most talented, such a brilliant voice and a great rocker. I would certainly listen to his cd when it comes out - I say 'when' not 'if' coz I just can't see how he could avoid picking up a contract. I predicted Katharine to win, I suppose because she looks more of an idol than Taylor, but I was proved wrong when Taylor picked up the prize. He definitely has a huge amount of charisma and I wish him a lot of luck in the future. Clearly, grey is back in!
