'American Idol': Elise Testone on talking back to Jennifer Lopez - 'I respect what she says to me'

18 April 2012 10:37 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »

It's always tense in the "American Idol" studio when contestants talk back to the judges. But Elise Testone, who was the latest finalist to follow in Justin Guarini's footsteps, tells Zap2it that she hopes Jennifer Lopez doesn't think she was being disrespectful when she responded to one of her comments about her rendition of Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On" during the second Top 7 performance show of Season 11.

After Lopez told Testone that she thought she needed to connect more emotionally with her songs, the singer piped up and said that she thinks she does do that on a regular basis.

Backstage later, Testone tells Zap2it why she decided to talk back. "I didn't want to just stand there and smile and not connect with their conversation with me," she says. "So I wanted to engage. I'm not being rude and I don't even discredit anything »

Stephen King and John Mellencamp Make Terrifying Music Together

Greg Moone From left to right at the table Susan V. Booth, Stephen King, John Mellencamp, T Bone Burnett.

Southern Gothic once referred exclusively to scribes and literature from the land of kudzu and mint juleps. Today, a Google search of the genre serves up everything from Bon Iver’s Wisconsin folk rock to gory novels by Australian Nick Cave.

Will a new musical from Stephen King and John Mellencamp also fit into the category?

Veteran Broadway performer Shuler Hensley is betting on it. »

American Idol: Was Season 11′s Top 10 the Strongest Ever? Take Our Poll!

26 March 2012 11:01 AM, PDT | TVLine.com | See recent TVLine.com news »

There’s this weird part of the week — from Friday morning till Monday evening — when not a single major TV network airs a reality singing competition. It’s terrible, I know, but it also gives me a lot of time to ponder American Idol history. (Everyone does this in their free time, yes?) And my latest flight of Idol fancy got me mulling this question: Was Season 11′s Top 10 the strongest — top to bottom — in show history? Let’s examine:

For starters, I’d automatically rule out the five seasons with three or more Top 10 contestants who probably wouldn’t have outlasted Season 11′s No. »

Us X Factor 2012 - Was Whitney Houston Really Considered as a Judge?

3 March 2012 9:05 AM, PST | National Ledger | See recent National Ledger news »

Dear Stacy: Was Whitney Houston really under consideration as an "X Factor" judge, or is that just a story made up after her death? -- Sean M., Chattanooga, Tenn. Dear Sean: According to the show's L.A. Reid, there was "interest" in the late pop star, but the idea never went as far as show reps actually approaching her. Dear Stacy: The song in the Hewlett-Packard DV6T commercial with all the different nationalities and instruments is familiar, and I'd really like to know what it is. Please help. -- Mary M., Webster City, Iowa Dear Mary: You are referring to the Violent Femmes' 1983 song "Blister in the Sun" -- which many people never would have expected to see performed by a mariachi band or a classical violinist. Dear Stacy: Whatever happened to Justin Guarini? -- J.R., Warren, Ohio Dear J.R.: Apparently you've missed his on-air hosting »
