Adam Lambert might not have won American Idol this year, but he was the first to release his first solo singles. Not just one but two of them apparently with Time For Miracles from the 2012 soundtrack and For Your Entertainment from his solo record.
However, now it seems the American Idol winner Kris Allen is catching up. On Friday, he released his first music video for the first single off of his record due out November 17th. The video is for Live Like You’re Dying, and apparently this was his first ever music video. An exciting life since he won American Idol, but the runner up isn’t doing too bad since the series ended.
American Idol returns this January to Fox with all new judge Ellen Degeneres taking over for Paula Abdul. Check out Kris Allen’s video below.
You wouldn’t think a CD cover would cause any trouble, but appparently one has. Adam Lambert released the cover for his first CD earlier this week. The CD, which is set for release on November 23rd, is titled For Your Entertainment, and the cover shows him glammed up and ready to party. He took to his Twitter to defend the cover this week.
Thank you to those who appreciate and understand that the album cover is deliberately campy. It’s an [homage] to the past. It IS ridiculous. For those that don’t get it: oh well… Glad to have gotten your attention.
It looks like he is already moving on from it. He debuted the first single from the new CD, the title track, today on Ryan Seacrest’s Morning Radio Show, and the song is a funky disco inspired track truly fitting of that glam CD cover. It is now available to listen to as a stream on Adam Lambert’s official website .
The singer just released his first solo single earlier this month, Time For Miracles. That is included on the 2012 soundtrack. Check that out on the stream from his site as well!

Yes, folks you’re reading right. The CW has decided to give full season orders to two of its series, Vampire Diaries and the all new imagining of Melrose Place. It is no real big surprise that Vampire Diaries was picked up. That series has had the best opening of the season with its numbers since its premiere. Vampires are still a hot ticket, and this one with a set of brothers bouncing back and forth is getting watched.
As for Melrose Place, this one has been struggling since the very beginning, but it isn’t dead in the water yet. The network is hoping that the return of Heather Locklear will make things pick up for the series in a big way, so they are putting faith into the series and picking it up now before her return in November. She is set to make her first appearance on the November 17th episode.
What do you think? Are you ready for more Vampire Diaries and Melrose Place?

Yet another American Idol alum is releasing their album soon, and this one will be the first for Adam Lambert, who came in second during this year’s competition. The song leaked earlier this week, but the official video for Time For Miracles hit the Internet on Tuesday. This one is from the soundtrack for 2012, which is set for release on November 13th.
In this month’s issue of Details Magazine, the singer has a sexy photoshoot that might be worth a look. Lambert came out as gay shortly after the American Idol competition ended this year. His record, For Your Entertainment, is set for a November 23rd release date. For more of the racy Details photo shoot, go here.
There’s a feeling of entitlement [with the fans] because they voted to get us where we are. But you know what? I am responsible for what I created on the show – you voted for what I created, and thank you, but I created it, you didn’t.
All the readers of this blog know I’m a huge fan of the Showtime series, Californication. We are only two episodes into season three, but we already know now that there will be a season four of the popular series. That decision was made based on the performance of the first episode. Ratings shot through the roof, and Showtime just couldn’t let this series go.
This season, Hank is dealing with his lady love being on the opposite side of the country while trying to raise his daughter and find a way to make money, whether that is selling his latest novel or working as a professor. Something that will most certainly pose some problems for the sex crazed author.
Californication airs on Sunday nights at 10pm on Showtime. What do you think? Are you ready for another season of the series already? Twelve more episodes of the series will hit Showtime in 2010. Check out the preview for the current season below. This season is full of new faces that will certainly make things interesting.
Melrose Place has returned. This time its on the CW instead of Fox, and it is following 90210. That series is in season two. Melrose Place is struggling with the ratings right now. We’re only three episodes in though, and the network is hoping this announcement is enough to make those ratings pick up.
Heather Locklear has finally agreed to return to Melrose Place. She had originally said no when asked. Others have returned to the series including Laura Leighton and Thomas Calabro. Others are set to make appearances as well.
Locklear was a major force in the original series, so having her return now is huge. What chaos will she manage to cause in the series? She is set to return to our small screens as Amanda on November 17th! What do you think of the new Melrose Place?
Vampires are one hot ticket right now it seems. All you have to look at is the record numbers set by The Vampire Diaries this week on CW. The premiere of that series brought in the highest numbers of viewers the CW has ever had! It will return to the network for its second episode on Thursday night, and if those numbers continue I see a full season of The Vampire Diaries ahead of us.
That will help those vampire loving people going through True Blood withdrawals. Yes, True Blood returns to HBO tonight for the finale of its second season. The series took a week break last weekend for Labor Day, but now we’ll get to see how this season ends up. What will happen to the town of Bon Temps and Maryann? Will the Queen of the Vampires come in to save the day?
No matter what happens, I’ll be tuning in to watch at some point tonight. Season three is already in the works, and Alan Ball gave TV Squad some spoilers for next season. Looks like we’ll have some new faces to deal with including The Vampire of Mississippi.
Also, it seems no matter what happens on-screen, the off screen happenings are just as interesting. We’ve already had one couple formed by the actors on this series with Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer engaged to be married, but now it looks like Evan Rachel Wood and Alexander Skarsgard have also hooked up during filming. News of the hook-up comes from Perez Hilton. Who is next?
Check back here later tonight to see my thoughts of the season finale of True Blood. Check here for more on True Blood.
Over the summer months, Paula Abdul shocked the world when she announced via her twitter that she wouldn’t be returning to American Idol to judge another season. Apparently the powers that be at the series weren’t willing to pay her the money she wanted to continue on. Simon Cowell even tried to push for her to be brought back in, but a search was made instead for a new fourth judge. We saw many join the other three in cities around the US as the contestants for this year’s competition.
Now we know who will join them at the judge’s table when the series returns in January. The powers that be have chosen Ellen Degeneres as the new judge for American Idol. She will sit at the table with Simon, Randy and Kara. Fans of her talk show don’t have to worry though. That isn’t going away at all! She plans to do both during those months. We will have to wait and see what happens and how well she is able to handle both jobs. American Idol is a full time job all its own.
Ellen looks to be there to stay though. She has signed a five year contract with American Idol, and she will start with the series in November. What do you think of this decision? Was Ellen the right choice for American Idol?
Yes, everyone. The fall television season is now getting under way. We’ve all suffered through those long boring months with nothing on television but reality programming and some series on cable. True Blood’s season is coming to an end, and from what I’ve heard Hung wasn’t a bad series. Might need to head to my on demand to check that one out before it is pulled by HBO. The CW is ready to premiere two of its series tonight with season two of 90210 ready to start, and an all new Melrose Place ready to hit your small screen.
I was a fan of 90210 last year, but the series lost me a bit around mid-season. I finally managed to catch up on all that I missed from Summer going nuts to Ethan falling for her. Don’t forget Naomi falling for the bad boy only to have them both screwed over by her sister. Him, literally. In the midst of all that, Annie is labeled a narc and tossed out on her butt from Naomi’s prom party. This means revenge is needed as Annie decides to play her label and actually narc on the party. This all leads up to what is supposed to be a cliffhanger ending with Annie doing a hit and run.
As for Melrose Place, an all new set of tenants of twenty-somethings with their messed up lives are ready to move in and let us follow their loves. A familiar face or two are going to be around, and those behind the place are still trying to get Heather Locklear to make a big return as Amanda Woodward. No telling if she will do it, but I’m hoping she does.
I will be watching both premieres tonight on CW, and I’ll come back with some thoughts then. Feel free to chime in with your own in the comments below!
As we all know I’m a big fan of Grey’s Anatomy, and I’m waiting to see what will happen when the series returns later this month with season six. However, we’re learning there are some big changes in store with the series. All new cast coming in, a merger between Seattle Grace and Mercy West, Meredith taking a bit of a break, and word has it Katherine Heigl will even be taking a break from the series for about five episodes this season to go off and film another movie.
Everyone was wondering if we had seen the last of Izzie at the end of last season, but we quickly learned Heigl was sticking around while T.R. Knight was indeed leaving the series. No more George! There are some big happenings to come though. Derek will finally get some air time that doesn’t involve his relationship with Meredith, Owen and Cristina will continue on, and yes even Mark and Lexie are still together. Grey’s Anatomy returns to ABC on September 24th. What do you think? Are you ready for more from Seattle Grace?
