I Love 'Em Yeah Yeah Yeah

Okay, is anyone as excited as I am about this week's theme - the Beatles songbook? I have been a Beatles' fanatic since I was itsy bitsy....in fact, I remember bouncing on my uncle's bed singing "She Loves You" while he pretended to play guitar in front of his full length mirror.

Of course, the Top Twelve are too young to have similar Beatle memories, but I hope they bring the right combination of exuberance and reverence these songs deserve. The Baby Boomers are watching, y'all, and you're treading on hallowed ground!

In other Idol news, did you catch Rosie O'Donnell's blog invitation to Danny Noriega to join her on a gay family cruise? She invited the openly gay former contestant to enjoy the cruise - and to perform "Tainted Love" on stage. (She even called him "Tainted Love Kid" which really piques the imagination, no?) No word yet on if Danny will be hopping aboard.

Speaking of Danny, many thought he was this year's Sanjaya, which makes me happy he was aufed before faux-hawk night. Anyway, if you're wondering what happened to last year's Sanjaya (who happened to be, well, Sanjaya) check out his latest interview on MTV, where he shares IDOL talk about his musical plans, Stevie Wonder, Martin Luther King.... and Danny Noriega (see how that all ties in so nicely?).

Blue Light Special! Newest on the product front is AT&T's AMERICAN IDOL Framerz, which allows to frame their favorite pictures with Idol-inspired themed frames. So if you want to picture yourself side-by-side with Jason Castro, here's your chance. Read all about it here.
