American Idol finalists

Since my new recapping job is all American Idol all the time (hey - the damn show is on three times next week!), I thought I should read some info about the newly selected contestants. Here is an article (via TV Tattle) that talks about some of the accomplishments of the 24. Most notably: baseball player Ozzie Smith's son is one of them. Also, it seems like a really old crowd with a lot of over 25 people. In fact, there are THREE 29-year-olds. The cut off was 28, but you only had to be 28 at the time of the audition so apparently three have turned 29 since then. Not that I'm complaining. I'd rather see adults than the Diana DeGarmo types.
