Our Version of Idol

Yes, American Idol started up again last night. As they announced the changes (goodbye Simon!) I completely forgot about it until I read everyone's posts on twitter. Some folks were widly excited and others called the show "tired and old". In 2009 I spewed the snark at Idol (me and The Huffington Post), but its a new year, and I have vowed to not be so harsh towards fellow gays like Adam Lambert. For me personally, as you know, I don't care about this show, but many of you do. I should really watch it for it's pop culture glam and glitter, but I ended up watching the emotionally-charged and fabulously fucked-up film Savage Grace starring the absolutely stunning—even for a woman—Juliannne Moore and her brooding homosexual son Stephen Dilliane.

Anyway, I realized that HOMOPOP sponsored its very own "Idol"-like show back in the summer called Queer Idol where all of the usual suspects: Mike, Dwayne, Al and Nick Starr all got up in front of the audience and belted out their favorite tune.

(I know they are all going to kill me for posting this, but oh well. We hide no footage. It make take us 7 months to put it out though!)
