Kelly Clarkson recently had a concert in the UK and one might think that after reading the reviews of her concert earlier this week that you were reading a review of Avril Lavigne’s concert.

Well this one is quick. Someone should sock Chris Daughtry for selling out on his beliefs.

Blake Lewis is the popular runner-up on the sixth season of American Idol. Born in Redmond, Washington, Lewis started singing at age five and competed in statewide talent contests while in high school. He became a beat-boxer at 17, inspired by the then Seattle-based a cappella group M-Pact. I love the single. It was everything […]
