As you can see in the picture above, our homeboy John Park is sitting on the ultimate prop for this season of American Idol: the stool.
He’s not the only one that has utilized this wondrous, yet simple piece of furniture to accessorize his vocal performance this week. Alex Lambert, Andrew Garcia, and that one homegirl [...]

The delightful little PR devils of “Kell on Earth” (from left): Emily Bungert, Andrew Mukamal, Kelly Cutrone, Robyn Berkley, Stefanie Skinner

Boone! Claire! Charlie! Rose! Bernard! Australian stewardess homegirl!
