Teenagers win: American Idol heads into its bland teen country finale

American Idol has its final two, and they are the youngest finalists in the show’s history. Congratulations, teenage voters and old people with bad taste: You have given us a country music-heavy finale and two finalists with the stage presence of paper bags. Yes, Lauren Alaina, 16, and Scotty McCreery, 17, are the final two, making this two weeks in a row now where the strongest performer and musician has gone home, as Haley Reinhart, 20, was eliminated. And it’s not because people stopped caring or voting: About 95 million votes were cast, which Fox says was “the highest number of votes ever for a non-finale episode.” Next week, the final two episodes move to Tuesday, when the final two will each perform, and Wednesday, when we’ll gather for the traditional two-hour live blog/support group to make it through the parade of post-apocalypse horror that awaits us.

Survivor Chase's song on reunion "opened some pretty big doors" in country music

During the Survivor Nicaragua finale in December, Jeff Probst asked runner-up Chase Rice to perform a song, and that exposure has helped Chase, who’s now working with Garth Brooks’ former manager. After Chase performed “Buzz Back,” it was released as a single (listen on iTunes) , and country music stations are now broadcasting it. That “opened some pretty big doors, I think,” Chase told the Asheville Citizen-Times . And now he wants to have another song become a NASCAR promo on ESPN: “I’d like to get involved in NASCAR through my music. I have a song, ‘Heathens in the Evenin” that’s a NASCAR rockin’ type song that we’re going to talk to ESPN about and try to have it be a promo for NASCAR.” Meanwhile, the paper reports that Chase “is working with Pam Lewis, once the manager for Garth Brooks, one of the biggest names ever in country music,” and also played before Nashville’s Music City Bowl game and will play at an event Feb. 1 (“Kiss Country’s Winter Jam”) along with Sarah Evans and Un...
