Crystal Bowersox Wary Of ‘American Idol’ Changes

‘I think that ‘American Idol’ producers … were a little disappointed on how many rootsy, folksy people they got,’ season nine runner-up says. By James Montgomery, with reporting by Jim Cantiello Crystal Bowersox Photo: MTV News There was a common misconception — both during her time on the show and immediately following — that Crystal Bowersox considered herself to be “above” “American Idol,” or at the very least, that she viewed everything that happened on it as slightly corny and/or ridiculous. But now, with her post-“Idol” debut in stores, Bowersox is speaking out about her time on the show, and, as it turns out, she’s grateful for everything the show did — and continues to do — for her career. “I don’t take for granted for a second what ‘American Idol’ did for me, the life that I have now. I’m sitting here now because of ‘American Idol,’ ” she told MTV News. “I wouldn’t have anything that I have now if I hadn’t tried out for the show. It’s changed my entire life.” That said, when asked for her thoughts on the upcoming season of the show — which reportedly will have an increased focus on “reality TV” elements like the contestants making music videos and living in a house together, in addition to new judges Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler — Bowersox wasn’t shy about expressing some reservations. “I think that ‘American Idol’ producers … were a little disappointed on how many rootsy, folksy people they got. And they’re really looking for a pop icon to come through. But, I don’t know, we’ll see what happens,” she said. “With Steven Tyler as a judge, you’d think you want to stay with that rootsy-rock thing, but then there’s J.Lo, and Randy’s still there. It’ll be interesting to see what happens next season.” And now, as an “Idol” alum, will Bowersox still tune in to the show? Perhaps. “I don’t know. I might catch it on YouTube or something,” she said. “I’ve been so busy I haven’t been able to catch anything. But it’ll be fun to see.” Will you watch the upcoming season of “American Idol”?

T.I. ‘Might Feel Disappointed’ In Album Debut, DJ Drama Says

Despite #4 debut, Drama says Tip probably regrets not being able to promote No Mercy. By Jayson Rodriguez T.I. and DJ Drama Photo: Atlantic T.I. is sitting behind bars, but if the rapper can take any solace from his situation, it’s that his latest effort No Mercy had a strong debut, landing at #4 on next week’s Billboard 200. But T.I. associate DJ Drama, thinks the rapper probably has mixed feelings about the news that his album pushed nearly 160,000 units last week. “Tip is the type of guy that, I’m sure, no matter how high it debuted, he might feel disappointed, because he’s not here, [and he might] feel like he could have done better,” Drama told MTV News. “If it does whatever numbers it does, with him being here, it might have done double that. I think this [release] is the toughest one for him. I been a part of his career for the last 10 years, and I seen him in and out of legal problems. But I think this one is a little bit different. Hopefully, this one is the most life-changing one for him. I listened to the album, and I watched it being made, and it’s some quality work. You know, at the end of the day, it’s about the music. And he still comes with that music. “But I don’t think he’s sitting there celebrating and thinking, ‘Oh, we did a good number,’ or, ‘We debuted high,’ ” Drama added. “He’s probably thinking to himself, ‘Damn, I could have done a lot better if I was in a better position by being home to work.’ ” Currently, Tip is serving an 11-month sentence for violation his probation, stemming from his arrest in Los Angeles in September. The rapper and his wife, Tameka “Tiny” Cottle, were pulled over for a traffic violation and police discovered drugs in the vehicle. T.I. was let go without being charged in the incident and traveled back to Atlanta, where he later faced the same judge that sentenced him to one year and one day in prison on weapons charges.
