Kelly Clarkson just released her video for Invincible: https://youtu.be/xQNqaERUYy4

It's all marketing, especially after I Am... Sasha Fierce. Without that album Beyoncé probably wouldn't be the renowned brand she is now. That and her looks and husband helped immensely. She can sing, but she's not exactly the next Whitney or Mariah.

It's just my dream panel. She can be fun and honest and actually knows how to sing. She has the talent like Christina without the diva behavior.

Carson really should just call them "world/American superstars" or in Gwen's and maybe even Christina's case former ones or has-beens. =p

I'm not fond of that panel at all right now. Gwen turned out to be good when it comes to appearance and stage presence (I think I barely watched that season only snips of it) while Pharrell's coaching left a lot to be desired. He shouldn't pick songs for his contestants, but he shouldn't give them complete reign. I actually think Gwen was and possibly still is the better coach. While Pharrell won with Sawyer this past season, it was pretty much a repeat of Season One with Adam Levine and Javier Colon. Sawyer, like Javier, was a clear front runner and was predicted to win the entire thing with his coach being along for the ride. Essentially they both coasted with their respective contestants and provided minimal input for improvement. Adam did advise Javier reel in the overuse of melisma and Pharrell tried to do away with Sawyer's security blanket (guitar). I liked Sawyer and wish him a successful career. My preferred panel: Adam, Blake, Kelly, Usher...

Whatever happened to the book store owner Niles was trying to set Frasier up with?

X is for the x-ray she needed when she twisted her ankle.

It started in Season 2. Every finalist got a car. That was when product placement got added to the show. Sprint and Kia were everywhere.

But he got to make out with Andrew Garfield as Gwen Stacy. That's how awesome he is. =p I just thought it would be easier to get someone like an adviser to become a full-fledged coach. If not Chris then I can see many other good candidates: Cher, Kelly Clarkson, Miranda Lambert, Billie Joe Armstrong, Alanis Morissette, Baby Face, Jill Scott, Sia, Reba McEntire etc. Also I can see Jake going the way of the Great Tater on X Factor which is not good.

If Pharrel or Gwen doesn't work out, can we just have Usher fill in permanently pretty please TPTB. =( I'll admit a Christina, Adam, Blake, and Usher panel could be interesting.

Chris Martin perhaps? He could try something new now he's separated from Gwyneth Paltrow.

I thinks it's safe to say Adam needs a break from this show.

Congratulations Josh and Team Usher for breaking the Adam and Blake streak.

Is it the nose?

Well I didn't watch because of the Grimmie's presence but it sounds like another "technical glitch". I just learned in the final performances thread that an ex-Idol producer is running the show along since last season. I wonder if he has influenced the show for the worse?
