Fantasia's A Homewrecker!

92356698_e.jpg

American Idol alum Fantasia Barrino's got a new man. The only problem is he's married with two kids!

Fantasia first met Antwaun Cook when he was working at a T-Mobile store in August.

ClASSy!

By September the two were so in lurve that Antwaun peaced out on his wife and two sons, which are 4 and 1 and moved into Fantasia's $1.3 million mansion.

Sounds like Antwaun's found him a sugar mama! Lucky for her if she's ever in danger of losing her house again he could sell it for her since he's also a real estate agent.

And get this. To "honor her man", the homewrecker's already got her new beau's last name tattooed on her left shoulder.

Stoopid!

Justin Bieber Poised To Rock Album Sales! Idol Champ Kris Allen To Debut With A Dud!

wenn5386235jb.jpg

Awesome!

Our favorite new tween singing sensation, Justin Bieber, released his debut album My World on Tuesday and his expected sales for the week are going to fall between 110,000 - 120,000 copies in the U.S.!

Very impressive for Justin!

Set to take the top spot is John Mayer with his new album, Battle Studies, and projected sales of 275,000 - 300,000!

Norah Jones' The Fall should take second at 150K - 160K followed by 50 Cent's Before I Self-Destruct at 140K - 150K.

But perhaps the most disappointing release of all is Kris Allen's self-titled debut! It's only expected to sell between 75,000 and 80,000!

Kris was the WINNER of American Idol!

That's just sad!

Whose album did U buy or are going to this week?

Ryan Seacrest Wants To Rock Your World Town

idolwenn2386615.jpg

American Idol finalists from last season, Kris Allen, Adam Lambert and Allison Iraheta are being forced to want to come to your town for a free concert!

Rapture!

Listeners of Ryan Seacrest's KISS FM radio show this morning were treated to the news that the AI host is arranging a special, free concert for the city or town that garners the most votes on his website. The "Ryan, Rock My Town" contest will run through December 11th and as of now New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago are in the lead for the mediocre mega prize.

Get clicking Glambert fans if you want him to come your way! (Do Kris and Allison have fans?)

But What He Really Wants To Do Is Act

wenn2641313_e.jpg

Adam Lambert has dropped an oh-so-subtle hint that he would like to act.

The American Idol runner-up revealed: "I hope acting's in my future, yeah. It is something that I've done a lot over the past eight or 10 years. If the opportunity came up and it was the right thing, I would love to be a part of a film. Right now, I am going to work on the album first. One thing at a time, right!"

One thing at a time!

You gotta get the music thing right first!

Fox Is #1, But Will It Last?

fox-logo.jpg

Usually, Fox has to wait for the juggernaut known as American Idol to lift them to the top of the network heap.

Such is not the case these days!

Months before we are graced with Idol, Fox has taken the lead against all the other networks. In large part, the Yankees making a triumphant return to the World Series has a lot to do with it, but it isn't the only factor helping Fox stay #1.

This season, the network seems to be in the lead with it's primetime programming, holding strong with it's popular scripted dramas, like Bones, putting So You Think You Can Dance into the fall line-up, and it's new shows, Glee and The Cleveland Show.

If they can hold strong in the weeks between the World Series and the return of Idol, Fox may just win the honor of being the year-around broadcast leader.

Can they do it?

For their sake, hopefully the Yankees and the Phillies will play all seven games.

Couldn't hurt!

Lambert At The Top Of The Charts, Almost

wenn5333405__opt2.jpg

Coming in second place on American Idol isn't so bad after all!

A.I. season 8 runner-up Adam Lambert's first album isn't due until November 24th, but it's already made its way to the number 2 spot on the Amazon.com sales list as of yesterday.

He's second on the list only to Barbra Streisand, who tops the chart with her new jazz album.

And the surprising part about Lambert's album is that it managed to jump to the top of the list on its own.

Lambert's record label, RCA, hadn't announced the album could be pre-oreded. But that didn't stop the Lambert fans from spreading the news.

Have U already pre-ordered your album?

Update: He's done it! Glamber is #1 now!!!
