American Idol Season 8

Okay, so continuing on with my theme of never picking the winner on American Idol, I decided to go with that and once again pick the non-winner this year. After the tryouts are over, I will name the definitive non-winner.

And for those who aren't in the know, every year on Idol there are "plants" in the running that already have ties in the music industry or to the show itself, or even those that have already had record deals with various labels, that always seem to have some sort of influence on who ends up making the top 10. In season 7 David Cook was the only one of the top 10 that wasn't one, and he ended up winning, probably due to the efforts of votefortheworst.com

But of course this does include a few spoilers as to who does and doesn't make it past Hollywood week, so you might click with caution.
