Mariah Carey ‘losing weight for Idol debut’ – The superstar singer is believed to have ballooned to a size 18 before giving birth to her twins in April last year. She has since embarked on a strict eating and exercise regime in a bid to regain her pre-baby body. Mariah is believed to be battling to lose the final pounds but wants to look fabulous for her role as a judge on American Idol. “Mariah’s told pals she wants to be a size 8 when Idol starts. She’s cut out salt, sugar, and oils and is focusing on portion control,” a source told UK magazine Closer. – Read more at Courier Mail

Emmys 2012: First-Time Winner Tom Bergeron Talks ‘DWTS: All-Stars’ and Maks’ Exit – After receiving his first Emmy for his 14-season gig hosting Dancing With the Stars, Tom Bergeron had more appreciation for reigning winner Jeff Probst backstage. “I wasn’t kidding when I thanked him for not being nominated,” Bergeron said of the Survivor host, the only person to ever win the young category. “I was stunned when he wasn’t nominated.” But with Dancing With the Stars returning for its All-Stars season in less than 24 hours, and colleague Maksim Chmerkovskiy once again in the news, Bergeron had other matters to discuss — like the fact that the firecracker pro isn’t leaving the show anytime soon. – Read more at Hollywood Reporter

    Is this the fella who was living in that online “Dreamhouse,” and later claimed to be impoverished and living on the street? Is he still represented by one of Simon Fuller’s many companies, called 19 or XIX or 1111111111111111111 or 20 – 1?

    Uh-uh. When Gad says “little changes”, he means little changes.

    They have to know or have an agreement so they can split up the royalties. lol

    I love your rant, it should be featured in a womens’ magazine. I never get the medias’ obssession with a celebrities weight, Kellys’ kick-ass vocals’ does not depend on her weight,Mariah is a diva whether curvy or curvier still when she got pregnant and women are at their sexiest when they are pregnant.Lauren Alaina was taunted and booed in most of her Idol YT videos because of her weight. I love these women for their talent.

     Yes, they do, that’s what Toby would have listed on his original filing with the label – isn’t it  a % split that was agreed upon and not detail as to who wrote which line, or bridge, or base line, etc… or am I wrong?

  • wordnerdarchie

    Yes, that is the guy.  I don’t know who is representing now.

     I was just thinking of budgeting concerns and the fact that the shows are similar when I said Fox may chose between Idol and X Factor.

  • elliegrll

    Neither show is expensive to produce in comparison to scripted shows.  And given Fox’s track record, there is no guarantee that they’d be able to find another show that could at least get a 3.4 rating in the demo.  It’s not like Fox has a lot of shows that are in the top 40 shows for the season.

    MJ, thanks so much for linking to http://alex-lambert.com, we really appreciate it! Few things to answer from other comments…Alex is getting paid it was just an oversight in crediting that was the problem. No clue how that happens, but it did and is in the process of being fixed thanks to the amazing Toby Gad. Also, I don’t want to slander the name of Scooter, Justin, or Carly, etc. We have no proof that they did anything on purpose…hopefully it was just a simple mistake. Thanks again MJ! ~ Molly (admin for Alex-Lambert.com)
