Talk about an American Idol fantasy come trueSTAR Artists Kelly Clarkson and Chris Daughtry may have recorded a duet! Daughtry’s producer posted a photo on his MySpace page of him, Kelly and Chris in a recording studio and the caption reads, “Me, Kelly Clarkson and Chris Daughtry at recording session for duet.” So if there is a duet, will it be on Kelly or Daughtry’s new CD?

STAR Artist David Cook doesn’t want fans to just listen to his debut CD, he wants to put ‘em through the wringer. "I just want the songs to kick you in the teeth or make you want to cry -- or do something drastic, like jump off a building. I want somebody to be exhausted when they're done listening." The CD will be in stores November 18th. Please don't jump off a building.

To quote E! News: "If there's one thing STAR Artist U2's Bono needs, it's a platform for his world views. Oh wait..." As if Bono didn’t have enough to do, evidently next year he’ll add reporter to his resume. He’s going to start writing for the New York Times. And what kind of absurd salary is Bono charging? He’s actually doing it for free.
