AMERICAN IDOL is one of the saddest things in recent memory. More people vote for this show weekly than vote for the President of the United States...
Thinking about it, aren't all these pop stars just pretty faces that are owned by corporations, with all their music composed and lyrics written by a company like the old HARDY BOYS novels? So, millions of people vote every week for which fresh new face they want to represent their force-fed, manufactured pop crap.
I guess it's more like the Presidency than I originally thought...
