I used to be a HUGE fan of American Idol. I watched it starting with the first season, and saw the very end of the second and saw all of the 3 & 4 seasons. I feel that the first two seasons were not rigged. But starting with the third season, I think it was getting rigged. Kelly Clarkson won fair and square, and I also feel that Ruben Studdard won.

But I highly question about Fantasia, and I feel pretty sure Carrie didn't win by number of votes.

So i stopped because Bo Bice and Constantine Maroulis didn't win. They had huge fan bases, the message boards would show that. But they wanted a country hick.



But I did follow the other seasons by hearing the news. I was not shocked when I hear Chris Daughtry was kicked off. He was a rocker, and we all know Simon hates rockers. He has made that clear, and it seems whoever Simon adores would win.

I didn't really pay attention to season 6, as I not believe a rocker was on.


When I heard that this past season David Cook was in the top 12, I figured like the other 3 rockers he would not get far. But once I heard he was in the finale two, I had just a bit of hope. And he won!

So I am happy the a rocker has proven Simon wrong!

BTW:Daughtry has went on and has doen well with his solo career as Bo and Constantine also have made albums.
