We’re finally found an American Idol sponsorship more jarring than the now-commonplace ones (The Judges, brought to you by Vitamin Water on Tap; The Contestants, brought to you by AT&T)…it’s Siobhan’s Dad, brought to you by Coca-Cola! My sneaking suspicion that he prefers Pepsi is almost as strong as my suspicion that he is actually Billy Squier. Maybe Siobhan’s Dad is just paranoid that the regular-soda tax will hit his home state…
Enough of this nonsense — go spend a few hours reading Michael Slezak’s ‘Idol’ recap!

Mr. Magnus is Angus Young.
He looks more like a Guinness guy.
He looks like former lead singer of Foreigner Lou Graham but much younger. BTW: companies are sponsering people now? Please.
Summer’s Eve sponors John Mayer.
I hear they also sponsor Jon Gosselin.
and Sean Penn.
Isn’t the person on the left the keyboard player for Bon Jovi?
That is NOT David Bryan!
I think you are right.
actually, I think that might be Katelyn Epperly’s mom, but too funny!
Oh Annie, your articles are the best!
Didn’t even notice it- maybe Coke is paying EW as well to bring it to our attention. A new American Idol conspiracy theory is born…
Totally didn’t see your post until after I posted mine-I see we agree. EW has just magnified something so tiny and small it makes you wonder…
Impressive conspiracy theory…but no, I just thought this was a funny/unlikely moment
That’s EXACTLY what I would say if I’d been busted- the conspiracy theory lives on!!
The real conspiracy that’s brewing is that EW is making moolah from all the spammers. I see ZERO enforcement.
The fact that you watch American Idol should leave you dead inside.
Why are you commenting on this, dead man?
looks nothing like Billy Squier… I’m thinking Lou Graham from Foreigner
I’m agreeing with the Lou Graham from Foreigner comment…
