American Idol:David Cook Takes Home 'Idol' Crown



The grown-up rocker triumphed over the smooth-voiced kid as David Cook claimed the "American Idol" title Wednesday, and it wasn't as much of a surprise as it seemed.

While the judges all but crowned 17-year-old David Archuleta the night before, the voters decided otherwise - and in a huge and unexpected way. Host Ryan Seacrest said before the results that that the margin was 12 million votes, and it turns out they broke in the favor of the 25-year-old from Blue Springs, Mo.Cook was overcome by emotion, bending toward the stage after his name was announced. When he stood up, his eyes were filled with tears, the second time in as many nights that the scruffy, grainy-voiced belter had broken down."This is amazing," he said. "This is all your fault," he added, addressing his brother.

The story goes that Cook was only tagging along with his sibling to the "Idol" auditions to lend support, and wound up getting on the show.Cook immediately took the microphone and began to sing "Time of my Life" by Nashville singer/songwriter Regie Hamm, winner of the annual "Idol" songwriting competition, to close out season seven.
Cook refused to bow to the conventional during his three-song set Tuesday, with Collective Soul's "The World I Know" as his pick for a closing performance. He also sang U2's "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" and the power ballad "Dream Big," his choice from the songwriting competition's non-winning finalists."If I had to choose between playing a song that not a whole lot of people know that I could get behind, or the opposite, I'll choose the lesser-known every time," Cook told The Associated Press backstage Tuesday.Judge Simon Cowell said at the time that the song choices sunk him, and told Archuleta that he'd scored a "knockout" in the boxing-themed performance finale.
Cook was unshaken, and now his choices are vindicated.While "Idol" ratings were down all season, the final contest provoked a frenzy with a record 97.5 million audience votes cast by phone and text. Last year's total vote count was 74 million.Early in the show, host Ryan Seacrest played it coy, announcing that the split between the two contestants was 56 percent for one David, 44 percent for the other. Of course he left in question who got the lion's share; that detail wouldn't come until the closing moments of season seven.While Archuleta was showered with praise by the judges all season, online bookies and observers kept the faith with Cook. One Web site, which tracks busy signals on the separate phone lines dedicated to each contestant, projected him the winner correctly Wednesday morning.

Cyrus became an overnight sensation after she was cast in Hannah Montana. Following the success of the show, in October 2006, a soundtrack CD was released in which she sang eight songs from the show. In December 2007, she was ranked #17 in the list of Forbes Top twenty earners under 25 with an annual earning of US$3.5 million. As of December 2007, she is working on a movie spin-off from Hannah Montana, titled The Hannah Montana Movie which is due to be released on May 1, 2009.

Just how many photo scandals is a 15-year-old supposed to endure in a week anyway?

Miley Cyrus faces her second round of embarrassing snapshots in the past seven days. This time, she says that she is upset by how a photo shoot for Vanity Fair turned out.
Photos in the magazine show Cyrus in a provocative state. It was apparently too much for the 'Hannah Montana' star, who saw images of herself flashing her bra and posing suggestively pop up across the Internet just days ago.

"I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be 'artistic' and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed," the teen superstar says in a statement to OK! about the Vanity Fair spread. "I never intended for any of this to happen and I apologize to my fans who I care so deeply about."

She added to PEOPLE, "My goal in my music and my acting is always to make people happy. For Vanity Fair, I was so honored and thrilled to work with Annie [Leibovitz]."

PEOPLE also reports that Cyrus appears to be topless, but was actually clothed during the shoot.

Vanity Fair responded, telling ET "Miley's parents and/or minders were on the set all day. Since the photo was taken digitally, they saw it on the shoot and everyone thought it was a beautiful and natural portrait of Miley. In fact, when Bruce Handy interviewed Miley, he asked her about the photo and she was very cheerful about it and thought it was perfectly fine."

The Cyrus clan has yet to respond to Vanity Fair's rebuttal, but Cyrus also addressed the photos that popped up across the Web last week.

"The pictures of me on the Internet were silly, inappropriate shots<" she told PEOPLE. "I appreciate all the support of my fans, and hope they understand that along the way I am going to make mistakes and I am not perfect. I never intended for any of this to happen and I am truly sorry if I have disappointed anyone." In January, several photos of Cyrus in her underwear and wearing bikinis also leaked online, supposedly hacked from her MySpace page.

Divorce :Jones Files for Divorce From Reynolds


Former 'View' co-host Star Jones has ended her three-and-a-half year marriage to Al Reynolds.
Jones told press, "Several years ago I made an error in judgment by inviting the media into the most intimate area of my life. A month ago I filed for divorce. The dissolution of a marriage is a difficult time in anyone's life that requires privacy with one's thoughts. I have committed myself to handling this situation with dignity and grace and look forward to emerging from this period as a stronger and wiser woman."

The couple's wedding was highly publicized during Jones' time on 'The View,' where she took a lot of criticism for trying to get much of the ceremony and decorations for free with her celebrity status.

Yesterday, New York divorce attorney Stanford Lotwin (who worked on the high profile divorces of Howard Stern, Donald Trump and Diana Ross, among others) filed a notice of appearance with the courts. Upon learning of the filing, "Entertainment Tonight" producers discovered the original divorce decree.

Jones married Al Reynolds at Saint Bartholomew's Church in New York City on November 13, 2004. The wedding was an extravagant affair with 500 hundred guests, three matrons of honors, 12 bridesmaids and four flower girls. The lavish nuptials came under scrutiny when Star discussed her wedding's sponsors at length on her ABC show.

Star Jones was born Starlet Marie Jones in Badin, North Carolina. An attorney, she began her broadcasting career as a commentator on Court TV for the William Kennedy Smith rape trial and spent several years as a legal correspondent for NBC's The Today Show. She joined The View in 1997 and on June 27, 2006 announced she would be leaving the show. Most recently, Jones hosted her own show on cable's truTV (formerly Court TV). She has authored two books: You Have To Stand for Something, or You'll Fall for Anything and Shine.
