Is American Idol Rigged? If the Paula Abdul "Gaffe" doesn't convince you maybe this will.Did you know American Idol is having a songwriting contest this year?They also had one last year.They charged ten dollars per entry and according to American Idol they had over 25.000entrys last year and thousands this year.So at ten bucks a pop they made at least $500.000Last years winner was Scott Krippayne & Jeff Peabody for the song This Is My Now. I found something about this years songwriting contest you might find interesting.One of this years top 20 songwriting finalist Regie Hamm--The Time Of My Life Regie Hamm and last years American Idol Songwriting Contest Winner Scott Krippayne have Co-written together.I will say that again because it bears repeating--------------------------------Regie Hamm and last years American Idol Songwriting Contest Winner Scott Krippayne have Co-written together.In the search box put in Regie Hamm Scott Krippayne and search by keyword and see what pops up[cocatalog.loc.gov] Melinda Doolittle was the 3rd place singing finalist in last years American Idol -----over 100,000 people tried outand in a completely different contestScott Krippayne was the winning songwriter in the American Idol songwriting contest last year.Regie Hamm is one of this years top 20 American Idol songwriting finalist this year.THE TIME OF MY LIFE - Written by Regie Hamm Now think about this for a minute.What are the odds in three different American Idol contests Regie Hamm Scott Krippayne and Melinda Doolittle all appear on a cd in 2005 called After The StormCheck out the picture gallery---[www.musicforthesoul.org] And this is not all there is a lot more, It's time for this show to end.
