8/3: Kat injures her foot
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Is this the curse of the runners up? According to people.com, Katharine McPhee fractured her left foot backstage during the Charlotte concert Tuesday night.
She wore slippers that night and will continue to tour. She just may be limping around a bit tonight.
Last year, season 4 runner up Bo Bice broke his foot during an Idol concert in Manchester, N.H. and the year before, season three runner up Diana DeGarmo slipped down some stairs on the stage and was badly bruised. Here’s more info on that incident.
I’m off to the arena soon and hopefully I can blog live from the concert.

I was at the season 1 show they did at philips arena. Jim Veraro triped and nearly fell on his face while running up some steps, but no broken foot.
Charlotte is NOT the same as chastain. Maybe get some proofreaders.

CHArlotte, CHAstain. I guess the writer of the home page headlines got their CHA’s mixed up.

She probably fell because she was top-heavy. That silicone can weigh a lot.

Hey Fantasia…before you go making a movie about your life, how about you GET one first?

I see enough of “who my baby daddy is?” on t.v. everyday. Why would I want to see a movie about it? What else is there to talk about with Fantasia? It sure isn’t her “singing talent” or her command of grammar. I guess one good thing came out of her winning AI. It means there is one less baby momma in the welfare line.

Why are you hating on Fantasia??? I think she has talent and I’m glad she released the song “Baby Mama”. She didn’t stop trying because she had a baby. She didn’t run and have more! There are a lot of people on welfare, I pay my taxes for them, but when they can step up and step out………I’m all for it!! When I heard the song, I went a purchased her CD that day. It was sold out!!! So don’t hate on a DREAMER. If you don’t have a dream, you don’t have a GOAL!! AS

This years show is almost a sell out, unlike the years tour when Fantasia won. I guess people feel like they have less a chance of getting shot in this audience.

Some of your comments are so mean and hateful they remind me of why I’m not a regular here. I don’t think there are many of us who could stand up to our own harsh scrutiny of others. Then again, I’m sure some of you are legends in your own minds…

If there is a REAL other Deirdre on this blog, would you please put a 2 or something after your name….your opinions DO NOT reflect mine. If you are an MPD….get another life….I’m already using this one!
