 | | The show is a competition in which viewers can call in and vote on contestants to determine the best "undiscovered" young singer in the United States, with the winner receiving a major record deal, although some runners-up have achieved enough fame to ink record deals of their own. | | | One of the most popular portions of each season are initial episodes showcasing American Idol hopefuls auditioning before the panel of judges. | | | American Idol Season 2: All Time Classic American Love Songs (2003) |

| | American Idol is not about longevity in the music business. | | | Now, I dare ANYONE to tell me the fact that her song is currently #1 on the Hot 100 charts is due to her own merits, and not the marketing muscle (read: big bucks and ass-kissing) of the American Idol people, the record company, sponsors, and whoever else gets a stake in her fame. | | | But I digress.....the shark made this show it's BITCH when FAUX announced that Kelly as the winner of this talent show (and it IS just a talent show) would be given the honor of singing "The National Anthem" on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial for the Sept. 11 Ceremonies. |
