We have big news tonight!!!
Yes, it's bigger than the pictures of Lindsay Lohan using recreational drugs AFTER rehab along with the post by her friend.
Yes, it's bigger than the video of David Hasselhoff drunk.
Yes, it's bigger than the report that Bon Jovi hated Blake's "You Give Love A Bad Name".
Yes, it's even bigger than the clip of Bush forgetting when America's bicentennial was, the news that Clemens is coming to the Yanks, and the rumor that Sanjaya might be a contestant on "I Love NY" combined!
Want to know what it is?
The dates for the summer American Idol tour have been announced!!!!!
Going through the list, I see they are coming to various locations in FL, CA, IL, GA, CT, MA, NJ, NY, WA, and NC, so I expect to be reading reports from all of your trips to the shows over the summer.....
Tampa tickets go on sale on 5/19. I'm looking at you Paul, Dina, Crystal, and Missy.
This week is Bee Gees week on American Idol with Barry Gibb. Ugh. We can only hope we get some of this:
I can only hope Barry Gibb talks about chest hair and crazy cool medallions.
Although, here at AI HQ, we might have to check ourselves. After all, we were down on J. Lo and Latin week, and we were pleasantly surprised. Then we were down on country week, and we were pleasantly surprised. And then we were down on Inspirational Week, and we were very pleased........we were never down on Bon Jovi. He's awesome.
Want to know how awesome? After he performed last week, Adele wrote us and said this:
Dear Idol Pool Master,
Bon Jovi is like Leo and John Mayer and horses and Beni Hana all wrapped into one. I love him so much.
Love,
Adele
Anyway, back to Bee Gees.....we're guessing it's not just Bee Gees, but music that the Bee Gees wrote, because the rumor was that Phil was going to sing "Islands in the Stream" this week if he was still around. Although, truth be told, we have no idea what other songs the Bee Gees wrote that they didn't perform.
We do know one thing, though....Idol contestants better not do any songs that the Bee Gees performed but didn't write.
I'm talking about this:
Or anything else from this:
No No NO NOOOOOOOOOOOO
Of course, if we get too much disco on Tuesday, there's always this option for the American Idol studio audience.
OK, let's look at the standings really quickly.
Enjoying his one (and probably only) week in first place is AI Pool Founding Member Will Beekman. Will was 4 for 4 last week, but his 4 are in this order - LaKisha, Melinda, Blake, Jordin.....that just seems like the wrong order at this point, so we're not sure how long Will is going to last in #1.
In 2nd place sits Marybeth Heyd. MB can go 3 for 3 if Blake goes home - her top 3 is Melinda, LaKisha, and Jordin. So, if it's Blake's week to go home on Wednesday, MB will leapfrog Will into 1st.
In 3rd place is Missy Minock. Missy has Melinda & LaKisha 1 and 2 and her #3 is out, so she really needs Blake or Jordin to go home.
Kirstin is lurking very dangerously in 4th place. She was also 4 for 4 this week and her top 4 read thusly - Melinda, LaKisha, Blake, Jordin. So, like Will, Kirstin will be in great shape if Jordin goes home.
Team Zach & Sarah is still hanging around the top 5. They can go 2 for 3 if Jordin or Blake goes home.
One person who doesn't want Blake going home is Paul Peters, currently in 6th. Paul has Blake #1 overall, so the further he goes, the higher Paul will climb.
However, there are lots of people out there who can go 3 for 3, and we should mention them all here:
#1. Will if Jordin goes
#2. MB if Blake goes
#4. Kristin if Jordin goes
#9. Crystal if Jordin goes
#23. Yvonne if Jordin goes
#24. Jon if Jordin goes
#26. Cindy if Jordin goes
#30. Grant if Jordin goes
#33. Dina if Jordin goes
#39. Don if Jordin goes
#44. Darby if Jordin goes
#46. Peter B. if Blake goes
So, there are lots of Jordin haters out there this week. She was one of our favorites two weeks ago, but she really fell apart on Bon Jovi night. However, we're betting she's going to pick a good song this week and regroup.
If we were betters, we'd say LaKisha is going home this week. The word is that she was having trouble picking a song this week, and that seemed to spell near disaster last week.
And if LaKisha goes, it'll mess up a good number of remaining entries. She is, after all, the 2nd most popular pick for this year's winner in the pool.
Enjoy Tuesday night!
The Master

Awkward hug between Blake's parents and his... boyfriend??? He just said he is an only child and yet who was that celebrating with his family??? Very interesting.
