We could probably confirm this rumor if we knew if Carly had tatooed SMITHSON across her back.

LOL, Lu! Maybe they are going to do a rocked-out Tattoo? Heh.

It would actually make sense that sheÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s collaborating with Chris Daughtry. They might have become quick friends during S5 hollywood week, but their communication cut short due to her getting the axe early. Just a thought.

Very good point. I totally forgot about her season 5 connection when originally reading her blog. It could very well be that they know each other from season 5 and reconnected at some point.

I’d be really curious to hear a Carly/Chris D collab and/or duet. I bet they’d sound great together, and yeah, his co-write could help give her a boost.

As a side note, I’d also really like to hear the song(s?) that Chris and Kelly did.

A lot of times people wonÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t announce what theyÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢re doing until all the contracts are signed. It can be because things can fall thru at the last second and they donÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t want to get their hopes up or disappoint anyone. Also if she announces something and for some reason it falls though a lot of people might see that as having to do with the material instead of outside factors. I hope she gets a chance to record with Daughtry but more importantly IÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢m hoping for any music from Carly.

I could see them doing some exciting music together. Their voices might work well together.

Just for the record, Carly isn’t “leaning towards” rock, she was always a rocker, through and through.

It would be interesting if the rocker ended up being Chris Daughtry. Didn’t we see here on MJ’s photos of Chris and Kelly Clarkson working on some collaborations or possible duets recently? but that those songs will not be included in their upcoming albums for whatever reasons? Maybe Chris is looking for a female vocal powerhouse with whom to do a duet. But honestly, if it does end up being a Carly and Chris duet, well isn’t there a certain irony in that, no? Odd Idol world and all. Didn’t Carly and Kelly both record “Just Missed the Train” for their respective debut albums? Carly in 2001 and Kelly on Thankful? And obviously Kelly’s album did very well. Hm, well, best of luck to them all.

Hmmmmm, love Carly and can’t stand Daughtry’s generic music. What to do? Flip a coin?

If this IS a Chris Daughtry and Carly Smithson collaboration, that would be so perfect! I really hope it is him. Though I wonder why she couldn’t just say it.

I’m waiting for the album. I just hope the songs are as good as Carly’s voice, if so, then all will be well.

Hey, maybe it’s Taylor Hicks. Didn’t he “rock” the house on AI? (lol)

Her description of AI5 rocker certainly makes you think of Daughtry first.
If Daughtry, does he have to get clearance or approval from his label to write with other unsigned artists? Would Carly have to pay something to his label? I don’t know, I’m just asking the question.

Someone upthread asked about Ace Young. Yes, Ace was a co-writer on Daughtry’s first single, “It’s Not Over” for which they received a song writing Grammy nomination.

Interesting. I can’t think of another rocker from season 5 but her hint makes it confusing. I think a collaboration and even better a duet with Chris would be something I’d love to see happen.

Great for Carly! She deserves another shot at the brass ring, and IF it is Daughtry she will be collaborating with, there’s no one better to give her a jump start…. Wishing her well in this effort.

That could be a very cool collaboration!! SheÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s in South Carolina and heÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s in North Carolina at the moment so geographically it makes sense lol.

And I’m practically smack dab in the middle of ‘em (literally! I’m right at the SC/NC state line). How cruel.

*Wishes she were lucky enough to accidentally run into an Idol*

It would really be awesome for her to work with Chris. I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
