A glitch on iTunes might have revealed who’s winning the American Idol race – at least in terms of popularity!
After each episode of AI, the contestants’ songs are placed for sale on iTunes, but the sales figures for each finalist is never revealed. Idol execs don’t want people knowing ahead of the finale who’s got the popular vote.
And, for weeks people have been thinking the final two might come down to Adam Lambert and Danny Gokey. But, if iTunes is any indicator of the popular vote, looks like contestant Kris Allen might make it to the final two instead next month.
A glitch last week in Apple’s software allowed users to see which contestants were selling the most downloads of their “live” performances each week.
And it’s no surprise, the leader – by far – was Lambert who holds 6 of the top 10 chart spots this season. And his cover of Mad World has become the No. 1 selling song this year!
Instead of Gokey coming in second, Kris Allen is actually in the second spot with three performances on the top 10. As for Gokey, he’s got just 1 on the chart.
Is it safe to call it now? Adam Lambert seems to have the first place spot on American Idol in his pocket!
