Ever wondered what happened to the American Idol winners from a few years back? Read what the first five idols are up to in the article posted last week here on TunesNews. Here's what the five most recent "American Idols" are working on:
Season Six: Jordin Sparks. Season six winner Jordin Sparks made history when she became the American Idol winner at the youngest age yet: 17 years old. Sparks didn't stop breaking records there; her single "No Air" has become the best-selling single by any American Idol thus far. In the years that followed, her other big

American Idols: Where Are They Now?
American Idol has wrapped up its 10th season. Tenth! I can't believe I started watching that show a decade ago. (No comment on how consistently I've watched it since then.) Some of the past American Idol Winners have gone on to claim much fame. Perhaps the best example is Kelly Clarkson, the winner of the very first season of American Idol.

And the winner is…
David Cook. Finally, an end has come to this season's American Idol. It was a battle between two Davids: Archuleta and Cook.
After their last performances of Tuesday, it seemed that if the voters followed Simon's advice, Archuleta would be our idol right now. Cowell praised Achuleta on his brilliant song choice. He also, however, stated that he didn't care who won. He felt that both of the contestants were equally deserving of the title. It seems that some users of Youtube agree. I was watching a Youtube video of David Cook's performance of "Billie Jean", and a lot of the
