Before Brian Dunkleman was hosting American Idol, he was acting on Dharma & Greg. He looks the same now as he did when he was 27 in that 1999 episode.

Yesterday on The Late Late Show, Jennifer Hudson and James Corden sang songs from the Public Domain and made them age appropriate for us.
They made Skip to My Lou something that we could skip to. Old McDonald is now a rap for our generation. London Bridges Falling Down is something we can get down to. But the last tune was by far the best. They turned Happy and You Know into a Gospel song and I felt the spirit! Did you feel it? Then clap your hands!
Simon Cowell and Terri Seymour might not have been able to make things work out between them, but looks like their kids might have a better shot at love. The Extra TV correspondent shared a photo of her daughter Coco sharing a kiss with Eric Cowell, and it’s the cutest thing you will see all day.
I know the 1 year old girl and the 2 year old boy are decades away from getting married, but at least they have the first photo for their wedding video.

I remember the magic we all felt during the first season of American Idol and watching Kelly Clarkson win it all. But as the show went on, it lost that loving feeling. So much so that this is the final season.
Now almost 15 years later, Clarkson is about to give birth as the show that made her a star is about to die. Before both of those things happen, she graced the Idol stage one last time and sang her song Piece By Piece. A song with so much emotion and heart, that not only wasn’t she able to complete the song because she broke down crying, so did several of the judges, the contestants, the audience and me. It was like that scene in The Natural when Robert Redford hit it out of the park. Instead of sparks raining down, it was tears.
This is American Idol. Too bad the current singers aren’t creating a moment like this. Maybe if they were, the show wouldn’t be ending. But it is, piece by piece.
Remember when Clay Aiken was on The Celebrity Apprentice and should’ve won but didn’t. Instead he came in second behind Arsenio Hall? Well, tonight Donald Trump came in second and American Idol’s runner-up had a message for his TV his boss. He said, “Hey @realDonaldTrump, remember that time you made me come in 2nd place? Doesn’t feel good does it? 😉 I do still love ya, but #karmasabitch.” Booya!
It might’ve taken him almost 4 years to get his revenge, but I am sure it tasted just as sweet!
