Glambert to mentor (and help?) IDOL

Speaking of “Idol” runner-ups, Adam Lambert can now call himself a mentor to the current crop of contestants.  Glamourpuss will be giving tips to the Top 8 April 13^th and will perform on the show April 14^th.  I guess Fox needed to do something to boost ratings and perhaps last season’s winner Kris Allen wasn’t available or, more likely, wasn’t really wanted.  Ouch!  Hey, business is business and male eyeliner and leather make for some nice TV dollars.  “Idol” is usually a ratings juggernaut but has been trumped by “Dancing with the Stars.”  Clearly people want to watch Kate Gosselin complain and be pushed around the dance floor like a shopping cart.  Even though Kate can’t dance her way out of a paper bag, I doubt she will be going home for awhile.  In addition to her bitch fits, her deadpan face when she is getting ripped by the judges is true, priceless entertainment. I am sure Paula Abdul is loving every minute of this. – C. Reeves
