Ruben Studdard - Undeserved. Clay Aiken should have won Fantasia Barrino - Undeserved. Jennifer Hudson should have won Carrie Underwood - Deserved it 100% Taylor Hicks - AN UTTER TRAVESTY. Daughtry should have won Jordin Sparks - Cop out. Melinda should have won David Cook - Acceptable. Could be argued however. Kris Allen - Acceptable. Could be argued however. Agreed 100! The only thing is, though, had the people who should have won actually won, their career would be lacking in creative control and they may not have been as successful as they are now, so it is a good thing that they DIDN'T win. But I agree, talent-wise, they should have won. | |

Kelly Clarkson - awful dresser boring Ruben Studdard - you ain't Luther boring Fantasia Barrino - too much gums boring Carrie Underwood - pretty, blonde and boring (Jesus, take the wheel and crash that mofo) Taylor Hicks - gray and boring Jordin Sparks - young, gigantic head and boring David Cook - five o'clock shadow boring Kris Allen - Starbucks CD coffee shop boring I can't stand Taylor Hicks, he was too corny for me. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

I agree, Daughtry definitely should have won over Taylor. Daughtry's first CD has some great music on it. There's a new Daughtry CD that is coming out in July. I can't wait to hear it. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

Tamyra Gray is clearly the best talent I've seen on the show. I should've given up on it when she didn't win the 1st season. Thankfully, I gave up a couple of seasons later. "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

I wonder if the "it's all crap" posters have even listened to any songs by the artists outside the show. Kelly and Carrie are true artists, write their own songs and go out of the box for the genres. Who now can claim to be a power country singer other than Carrie Underwood? Even Reba was quoted as saying she had to "rock" it up abit after playing with Carrie. She's a real deal. When Kelly won, the show was still honest.
But look at the list of winners. Only Carrie and David Cook look remotely like pop stars in our supposedly looks-obsessed country. A guyliner-wearing, obviously not straight guy ALMOST took it all. Jordin is no skinny-mini. Rueben was well fed, Clay needed to be fed. The show just needs to quit pimpin' certain contestants and ban anyone who even sniffed a record studio. THEN it will seem more honest. | |

It may only be a symptom of the real problem, but American Idol is emblematic of everything that's wrong with the music industry. Feel free to join in the Prince Album Poll 2018!

Out of all the past winners, the only one I've listened to is Fantasia, and that was only her first album. Didn't care for the second one at all. To me, she's a Soul singer and Arista tried to surpress that, like the did with Jennifer.
Rueben was supposed to be the next Luther Vandross. It didn't happen, though. [Edited 5/29/09 3:29am] "It's not nice to fuck with K.B.! All you haters will see!" - Kitbradley
