Any swimmers (or your kids) going to audition for American Idol Season 6

Any swimmers (or your kids) going to audition for American Idol Season 6? I confess the show is one of my guilty pleasures. Ande AMERICAN IDOL begins its search for the next singing superstar and will host auditions in 7 cities across the country starting this August! The quest to become the next American Idol starts now. Auditions for the sixth edition of AMERICAN IDOL begin in Los Angeles on Tuesday, Aug. 8, at the Pasadena Rose Bowl.

  • I've recently started indulging in "America's Got Talent" and even allowed myself a foray into "Last Comic Standing" (which didn't grab me, tho there were some funny lines). The British judge (I forget his name) on "America's Got Talent" is sometimes funny, sometimes gratuitously nasty. I suppose eventually those who go on that show will know what they're getting into and will not take him too personally, but there were some pretty vulnerable looking people being raked over the coals by him. Also some pretty interesting acts, some singing, some gymnastic or other feats. Some, I admit, were kind of odd/over the top. When they'd announce the acts, I'd try to guess whether the judges would show them the door or send them on to the next round. Sometimes I was surprised b/c things I didn't think I'd like and didn't think the judges would care for either turned out to be much better than expected. Haven't watched American Idol... as for trying out... even if I were in the age bracket, singing's never been my forte. But I can play a mean radio or tv. ;)
