Yup!!! All were ~sources close to the artist or Idol or Fox ... NONE have been from the prospective candidate themselves, except N. Jonas, which is why I've always thought his involvement a total smokescreen all along. If it IS him and A is out, welp, I'll say it right now: I blew it and was wrong. wrong. wrong. There are a few more. I correct my post above. Idol seems to be doing a PR stunt with this to get thru the Olympics and then announce. I really want them to decide soon, almost as much as I want this for Adam. << The thing that I cannot get past is Adam's calendar. >> << New single, no promo is just a ?? for me. >> ETA: IF Adam gets Idol, it will mean a ton of press. Regarding the comment about Mariah's song needing to be in iTunes Top 10 before it gets played. It was about artist who are over 40 -- and I take it as an excuse for the lukewarm response she has gotten for the song. “I think it’s really hard to get on Top 40 radio when you are over 40,” one top radio host tells me. “She’s trying to get street cred by having rappers on the song but it isn’t working. What’s really concerning her team is that most superstars' singles get in the top 10 on iTunes within the first days, just out of curiosity. It’s not like people are listening to the song and deciding they don’t like it; [with Mariah] they are not even listening.”

But the song and concept of Mariah+Rappers does not work. And this song is not going to be a hit.

Is there someone who was considered, really wanted it bad, but didn't get it and announced they didn't get it? I only heard of those who were considered but rejected it, like Pink and Katy Perry. We do not know who is really being considered. We know that Alanis Morisette could be taking it up a notch. Alanis Morissette told Las Vegas CBS radio station Mix 94.1 that she is in talks to take on "American Idol" for the show's upcoming 12th season. And she was positive about it. According to The New York Post, Sean "Diddy" Combs is in talks to join the singing competition show as well. Nick Jonas says he is in the running to judge "Idol". Randy wants to be a judge, but looking dim for him. Brad Paisley, Pharrell Williams and Adam have been mentioned by associates and sources. Oh and everyone in Nashville is talking to Idol. I think there will be 8 judges!! **** Corrected by Q3 **** Maybe I should rephrase. Is there anyone who himself or herself (not associates or random sources) has admitted to being interviewed for the judge position and really wanted it but also admitted they didn't get it? If there is not, then I see no reason why Adam would be the first. It's kinda embarrassing going up for a job you told the world you wanted and not get it. In fact, we don't even know if he was interviewed for the position at all.

YUP exactly!I guess there has been lots of fun today (and most days) just trying to support Adam the best way we can... by being hopeful for him!

In fact, we don't even know if he was interviewed for the position at all. Over the past 5 years there have been dozens maybe even hundreds of celebrities who have been on the Idol rumor list. Plus many more who have been guest judges. I doubt anyone has tallied the whole list. When celebs do not get selected, they usually say they did not want it. When judges are fired, they usually claim they quit or hated it. Look at how Adam handled the Glee rumors -- said he was not talking to Glee, made a joke about the rumor, then said he would love to do the show. He could figure out a way to say it would be great if it happened but he was focus3e on his new single right now. He didn't -- he said he was going to be really busy in September with "stuff". And "stuff" is not on his calendar.

I don't know, but to outright deny it ends the press and speculation completely. Done. And, maybe he didn't want to deal with fan drama/disappointment. I still have a little hope, but this doesn't sound very promising, IMO. My husband thinks that a smart person who wanted the job would never outright deny a rumor like that even if he didn't have the job until it was absolutely certain that someone else did. YES! I just posted this on twitter actually.
