Sanjaya Wins

Cheese and crackers, it could happen. OMG, he's in the top 5 or 6 on DI. Who would have thought he would have gotten to the top 10! I'm creeped out by it myself! Votes are votes!

Wowzers.

two questions:

how much do the top 10 make for the idol tour? i'm thinking $100-$200K each, just a wild guess though.

are all the top 10 now under contract to the show or simon or whatever the recording company is? or at least an option on their side??

How far did chicken little make it last year?

Remember, Howard's show was not involved if I am correct.

They make 50 k for the tour, Elliott's girlfriend told me that.

chicken little hit the chopping block this week last year.... sanjaya >>>>>>> covais, in terms of phenomenon.

Considering 30 million votes, I would assume that VFTW and Stern could not have make that much of an impact, hopefully it will be diluted as most viewers vote who don't go to their sites over the next two weeks.

That being said, I wonder when Sanjaya's fans need to switch votes who they will go for next?

thanks, wow, that's a low number .... so, in some ways it's not that great directly financially.... someone like stephanie or brandon or antonella got alot of publicity already.

No one. Most of those votes will probably go away. Even if they keep watching the show, a lovestruck kid who voted 100 times per week for Sanjaya is not going to do that for anyone else.
