6/13: Katharine McPhee on Neutrogena, Taylor Hicks on Regis doing Grease
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Katharine McPhee is going all infomercial on us, just like Paula Abdul. She is selling Neutrogena skinID, a personalized acne solution that claims to beat proActiv. (Did McPhee ever have anything but perfect skin on “Idol”). You can check her out here. Click on her face to see the commercial.
Watching her, it’s still fair to say she is the prettiest gal ever to finish in the top 12 on “American Idol.” And she’s carved out quite a (non-singing) career outside of “Idol” so far.
-MJ provided the clip of Taylor Hicks doing “Beauty School Dropout” on “Live With Regis & Kelly” yesterday. I can’t seem to embed it so here is the link.
Taylor sounds great, but he doesn’t do it with quite that glinty-eyed sarcasm that Frankie Avalon pulls off so well in the film.
-Carrie Underwood’s first seven singles have gone to No. 1 on the Mediabase airplay charts. (One of her singles “Don’t Forget To Remember Me” peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard country charts.) “Last Name” is the latest success. Clearly, Mediabase is not counting non-official singles like her “I’ll Stand By You.”
Have a great weekend everybody!
