Know What Idol Gave Me?

Very seriously I ask myself, "Melissa, how many episodes of American Idol have aired that you haven't even made one comment on?" Not to mention last week's Idol Gives Back. That was pure genius to take such a popular show and make it do good for others. What other show raises over $60 million for charity and has Jack Black singing "Touched by a Rose." Can't beat that, not even with a stick.

Wasn't Josh Groban phenomenal as always? My husband even liked his performance. But I think he's secretly a Groban fan and just won't admit it.

And Kelly Clarkson is still my favorite Idol winner—of all times.

I knew I was in to a really good show. I love that so many people's lives are going to be helped. Like I said, Idol Gives Back is pure genius. But I'll tell you what Idol gave me: a near heart attack by making me think Jordin was being sent home.
