Carrie wins!!!

Ok...so Murph's post about shunning crap reality TV must have hit me at a particularly vulnerable moment in my life because i decided to BOYCOTT the big finale tonight (I watched a DVD and did dishes instead). I did tune in at 9:55 to catch the crowning of Carrie Underwood, who will now be blessed with all the magic celebrity that has blessed the post-Idol careers of Ruben (he starred in an episode of "Life on a Stick"!!!) and Fantasia (she had a Disney movie named after her!!!). May the drop of her new single succeed mightily!

One question though -- did I see Kenny G on stage at the end of the last song Bo sang on the show (and that he will ever sing in front of more people than can fit in a roadside karaoke saloon)? What was that about? For a moment I wondered if I had bought a bad case of PBR or something.

My little Bruiser missed Kenny G and George Benson and Babyface (a former 90210 one-time alum) and some country crap group11 SO SAD.

This finale may have been shittier than those in the past, and not just because of the outcome. I really shoulda drank more to make it through...

even worse, 2 of the idols had to SING WITH Kenny G. Can you imagine the horror? ok kids... you are going to get to sing with a musical celebrity!! Oh, no way, who is it? Elton JOhn? Billy Joel? Dr Dre? No... its the ever popular Kenny G!
