: Hi there, just a few snippets of idol news.
Congrats to Jordin Sparks who will be singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl on Feburary 3rd. Very appropiate as this year the game will be held in Jordin's hometown of Glendale, Arizona.
Bucky Covington closes out 2007 by being named Country's Best New Artist of the year by Clear Channel. For the Bucky fans I am sure you know how successful he has been with his single "A Different World". Great job Bucky!
Last but not least belated birthday wishes go to Chris Daughtry who celebrated his 28th birthday on December 26th. Chris has indeed had a very successful year and has much to celebrate as we end 2007.
As I sit here finishing my morning coffee, let me wish each and everyone of you a very safe and Happy New Year!
