How big an 'Idol' fan are you?

So for someone who spends half his day job (not to mention three-quarters of his free time) obsessing about American Idol, you’d think I’d have scored better on People’s highly entertaining new video quizzes on Taylor Hicks and Katharine McPhee. (Why didn’t we think of that Wednesday?) Alas, though, not knowing the definition of a ”mullet toss,” or the object of Ms. McPhee’s celebrity lust, I only managed a 2 out of 4 for Taylor, and a 3 out of 5 for Kat. Gasp! That said, when the rumored exam on my favorite season-5 singer* goes live, I’m totally gonna nail it.

(*Oh come now, people: You know his name… you know his name… you know his name is Elliott Yamin.)

    Yeah, didn’t do so hot. 3 out of 4 for Taylor, 2 out of 5 for McPhee.
    Hmm… Is your asterisk note a nod to “Crazy” by Gnarls Barkley? I’m thinking it is.

  • Tanya

    Soooo….you’re saying Elliot is your fave???? Props to you if he is….many of us out here feel that way…can’t wait to see him on tour with AI and to eventually hear his OWN CD!!!

  • Suzanne

    2 out of 4 for Taylor; 1 out of 4 for Katharine.
    I love your Believe to my Soul asterisk. Now listen to this! (I’d listen to that!)

  • Gwen

    Embarrassingly, I scored 4/4 for Taylor and thankfully, 2/5 for Kat. Elliott – I’m all over that!

    Was that an Elliott shout-out in a Slezak post? Didn’t see that one coming! ;0)

  • Jennifer

    I got 4/4 for Taylor, but I’ll admit that 3 of those were really lucky guesses. I also got 2/5 for Kat, both of the ones I got right were lucky guesses also. I feel like a better human being now though for not knowing she wanted to go all the way with Paul Walker or that she enjoys plucking her eyebrows.
    Elliott– When it comes, I’m going for 100%, and probably from actual knowledge.

  • Bob

    Slezak, your manlove for Elliot is out of control!

  • db

    i love Slezak! I want more of elliott too… i still have a bad (or good?) case of yaminitis!

  • Drayton

    2/4 for Taylor.
    1/5 for Katharine.
    HAHA.
    Seriosly. I Love Elliott Yamin. He did sweet on ‘I Believe To My Soul’ Can’t wait to hear his album, which I heard he’s making after the tour season.

  • cake

    1/5 Kat
    0/4 Tay
    i’m sure i’ll ace elliott’s!

  • Liz

    Slezak I love you.
    What was that Simon was saying about his worry that Elliott would be forgotten?
    “If I’m being honest”, Cowell, that ain’t gonna happen.
    As for Kat & Taylor, I’ve already forgotten their names, let alone any other facts about them…..almost.

  • Suzanne

    Elliott’s quiz is up over at People. 5 for 5!
    Let us know how you do, Michael Slezak.

  • Annie

    The asterick note is a nod to “I Believe to My Soul” which was his last song on AI before he wrongly got the boot instead of the shrieking girl. I got 2/4 for Taylor and 2/5 on the Shriek. I can’t wait until his CD comes out. I downloaded his interview with Vince Vaughn and Kellie Rippa, and I just listen to “Moody’s Mood for Love” over and over again. Now listen to this- is right on!

  • cake

    waaahhhh… i got 4 out of 5 on elliott video quiz! not bad i guess… i love watching elliott on his video responses… and i love that he loves my most reality show obsession.

  • Jess

    i liked all the videos. kat’s so cute in hers!! anyone who takes her comment about paul walker seriously…they need to get a life.

  • Jamie

    I loved Elliott’s video quiz. He looked so cute, cool, and relaxed. I scored reasonably ok :P The more I get to know about E, the more I adore him (if that’s possible!) :D
