					<description>Girls,

I just found out some very shocking info over at TWOP about Jordin's contract and if this is true, then this explains why we don't have an announcement.

This post came from Donna All City:

"I hesitated posting this at first but now that I've thought about it I think it's too interesting not to share. I think Phil may have dropped a huge piece of info about this label or lack thereof stuff. My friend who took that gorgeous pic I posted yesterday chatted him up the other day by the buses and they talked about how AI opens so many doors and gives you so many opportunities blah blah but how it doesn't guarantee success..this led to Phil saying even Jordin had trouble getting signed and how 19 is or was shopping her around to labels. I swear I actually said out loud 'what the fuck'!?' She posted this on a public board so I feel ok posting about this. I spoke to her a little more about what was said and apparently he did say she was not automatically handed a contract like they all have in the past. She's going to see if her friend that was also there could remember more, she said he was talking a lot but she was all focused on looking for Cake so was kind of only listening with one ear. Ok so, if this is accurate it sounds like the deal between AI/19/BMG is no more..? But really, WTF?!"

I would be interested to hear your thoughts on this.  Didn't know that Phil was the type to gossip.  LOL</description>

					<description>OK - first I'm a novice at how the music industry works but my understanding is that there are multiple labels under BMG.  I keep thinking that since it isn't at all clear what type of music/what audience Jordin's CD would contain/target then they are having trouble fitting her with a label.  And that is what is taking so long.

Just a thought ...</description>

					<description>You could be right Cam. Sounds very possible, that's what's happening.
On the other hand, I am pretty sure Blake has already many offers on the table to choose from. 
He keeps announcing his CD will be out on THanksgiving, that he already has 7 songs recorded..
He is working on the studio with Ryan Tedder and Steph JOnes. I can't believe he is paying for all of this or 19. I think they label deal is already being prepared and they are just waiting to see what will happen to JOrdin.</description>

					<description>Here is an article about Blake coming back home to perform, but underneath the group picture there is a video titled Blake Birthday Bash and him being interviewed.   It is short, but cute.

					<description>Ok, that is some huge news!  I seriously hope that it is resolved quickly, tho, cause I'm already tired of waiting for Blake's CD and tour isn't even over yet!  Oh, and can I say how incredibly jealous I am of those girls getting to go to the Tacoma show!  I so totally wish I was going to be there tonight!  Katy, you better take good notes/video/pics!</description>

					<description>Verrrry interesting the maybe-news about Jordin's MIA deal. Hopefully it has no effect on B's album. Could someone clarify for me -- as winner she is also managed by Simon F/19?

Aw yeah, BShorty comes home. Cannot WAIT to see how the show goes, I'm almost sure he'll come up with something special for them :)</description>

					<description>I just listened to that You Tube of him beatboxing again, and at the end it sounds a little like Frankie Goes to Hollywood.   If this is the kind of beatboxing is talking about putting on his album, then I really can't wait.   It makes you want to move.   

Also when I brought it over from You Tube, it brought the person's myspace over.   Sorry about that.</description>

Michelle,

This is what is concerning everybody that it push B's release date back quite a bit.  The rumor has been that Jordin is managed by her parents, so it's hard to say.  If this does push the release back, then this fanbase will be ticked beyond belief and I fear that Jordin's fanbase will forget about her very quickly if this goes on too much longer.</description>

					<description>Sarah and PJ have an awesome time in the Emerald City!!!  Sarah, you better be wearing that shirt, lol.  You know, The Shirt!  I was trolling on pulse and found this tidbit in the Leona Lewis thread, sorry if this is old news, I've been out of the loop for a minute.

N THE STUDIO (BLAKE LEWIS, LEONA LEWIS...)
Current mood: working

Hey everybody,

It's been a minute since I've posted on Myspace, so I wanted to check in and let ya know what I've been up to.

I'm in the studio with BLAKE LEWIS, who most of you know, was the runner up on this season's AMERICAN IDOL. He's very talented a lot of fun to work with.

I also just did a song for Natasha Bedingfield. It's going to be her 1st single in the States so listen for it on the airwaves and also keep an eye out for her album which drops in October.

I'm also in the midst of recording an extrordinary artist, LEONA LEWIS, who won X-Factor, which is the UK version of American Idol. An outstanding voice, amazing work ethic and a great gal. You'll be hearing much more from Leona, that you can count on.

I'm also writing /producing some great stuff for Mary J. Blige. She's THE REAL DEAL and I have a lot of respect for her.

I've been extremely busy with my band, OneRepublic as well.

ALL IN A DAY'S WORK...

Out!</description>

					<description>PJ, Sarah - Have fun in Seatown and please don't get distracted by Roundhead aka The Richness please.  Though maybe you can make him sing to you the song he wrote for Blake. 

Anyone see anything on Fox Q13 yet?  Lily Jang the anchor seemed to be a huge fan and they were all over him during the hometown visit. Hope some media vids pop up.</description>

					<description>Shayne,

Very cool video.   Some the clips you have of Blake dancing I have never seen before.   Where did you find the video of him doing that performance?  I have seen clips of it before but never the whole thing.</description>

LOL. I heart Vegas. :)

Well I'm not wearing THE shirt, but I do have a couple of other shirts with me similar to THE shirt. :)

Thanks everyone. We're really excited about tonight. I have a seat on the 5th row on the left side, so I'm hoping to get some good pics. I don't have video capabilities on my camera, sorry. :)</description>

					<description>Ok guys, and the plot thickens.  lol  Here is a post from TWOP forum from shelovestheway who got this from Jordin's thread at AI.  If this rumor is correct, it might explain a lot of things. lol

"Earlier this year, I did hear rumors that the BMG deal had expired, where they automatically signed the winner, and 19 would be able to shop the winner (whoever it was) around to other labels. I think it's plausible, since five years seems like a credible contract time, and the original AI deal was made during the time when Clive had been ousted from there and he apparently wasn't very happy about it."</description>

					<description>I'm so stoked for the Tacoma show (just getting to hear about it). I think the writer of the first article wasn't clear. I don't think B. will do an original in Tacoma tonight but then who knows. . . Also, the writer seems to be more of a Fanjayan than a Blaker. I'm so happy for Blake to be able to be home &#38; perform for his "hometown" crowd!</description>

					<description>A.D.D. ... I heart him so.

According to that article (thanks Anne!) the release date is still slated for Tuesday before Thanks Giving. And the interview is dated this Wednesday, which would've been around or after the time the Jordin tidbit happened. So far, so good.</description>

I heart him too Michelle. LOL.
That title is so Blake. I love it! He is just so creative and artistic. VEry cool. A.D.D.

GOtta love that. It seems to me that as each week goes by, Blake is more ready to release his CD the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. He keep smentioning that in each interview. Jordin or no Jordin.
That news regarding the BMG expiration contract makes a lot of sense.
I really can't wait to see what label Blake signs up with. I am telling you I am pretty sure he has many offers already.</description>

Yup, the fact that he keeps telling the date to press (and Simon F hasn't stopped it) makes me think there is something very solid backing it. This is soo much fun!</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;Blakes Seattle Bday Recap


hey guys-

just thought i'd give you a brief update on last night. Smile

last night i went to a belated bday dinner with blake, his parents, and a few close friends at la casa del mojito (where else?!). the food was amazing and the restaurant is really small so no one recognized blake. it was very nice and relaxing.

after dinner i gave blake my bday present from me and my boyfriend. we gave him heelys and a depeche mode DVD (blake and my bf LOVE depeche mode). once i found out heely's came in adult sizes i knew they'd be perfect for blake! he got really excited about the heelys and said, "I've always wanted these!". so keep an eye out, who knows, you may see him cuising around on his heelys at upcoming concerts Smile

then we headed over to venom (a club in seattle) for a private bday party for the rest of blake's friends (AKA a TON of people). i met up with my good friend leah (andrea was home sick - we missed you, andrea!). we mostly hung out in the VIP room all night with phil, c-rich, gina, haley, ethan, and cisco. blake would come in and out all night. he was busy catching up with people he hadn't seen since before idol. for those of you who are already speculating, no, blake didn't drink at the party. and just as a side note he wasn't drunk at the anaheim concert. he was extremely tired. he'd recorded until 10pm the night before and then hung out with his friends.

check out some new pics from the party. i'm heading out for the concert in a bit and will bring back lots of pictures and videos.

love you guys!

kristi&lt;/blockquote&gt;

She got him Heelys, lol.</description>

					<description>Whatever is happening with Jordin has likely been going on for a while and not something that just happened. If the rumor is true she wasn't given an automatic contract and they had to shop her around that is definitely something ongoing and I can't imagine it would change anything for Blake.</description>

					<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Whatever is happening with Jordin has likely been going on for a while and not something that just happened. If the rumor is true she wasn’t given an automatic contract and they had to shop her around that is definitely something ongoing and I can’t imagine it would change anything for Blake.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Lisa,

It really shouldn't especially if Blake doesn't sign with Clive.</description>

					<description>Hey guys.. 

I just found a video of Blake's birthday party last night in Seattle. They interviewed him a bit... He is so sweet and cute! Love that shirt.

Check it out:

After you open the link, scroll down and look for a tiny link that says

					<description>Michelle,

That note from Kristi was so cute.  I saw that over at TWOP just a few minutes ago.  Blake may be 26, but he's really still a kid. lol  I can't really say too much since I'm 31-years-old and wear a size 3 in children's shoes.  LOL  I can almost picture that twinkle in his eyes.  hee hee.</description>

					<description>I doubt Blake will do anything new in the second half. The setlist is pretty much...well, set. Melinda didn't get anything extra in Nashville. As far as I know, Jordin didn't get any extras in her hometown, either.</description>

					<description>Sounds like a kickass night for Blake (and Sanjaya), how cool for him. Hopefully he had a great time and I'm sure being home is a nice break during this long tour, even if only for a day or two. Can't wait for recaps/pictures!</description>

					<description>Ladies,

Here was the comment from Sligh from the same poster at MJ's about his album which tells me that after the 90-day clause they are free.  He talks about signing with new management.

Chris Sligh: “&lt;strong&gt;At the end of August, I’m going to sign with a management company.&lt;/strong&gt; I was lucky in that my band had a couple or recordings out, so that record labels could see what I could do. I actually had a label endorse me before the show, and the show amped it up a little bit. So I’m lucky to have multiple labels after me right now. I’ll figure out which one is the best for me and hopefully get a record out in January or February. It’s going to be a pop/rock record with some danceable stuff, probably like The Killers meets U2 meets Switchfoot, an interesting hybrid. Very melodic rock. I’ve got what people describe as a soulful voice and hopefully I can play on that.”</description>

					<description>Does anyone know how many songs will be on his album? I'm guessing about 13 or so...
Also, any clues on his future singles besides she loves the way? he performed emotional waterfalls too during his hometown visit, so im guessing that could be his 2nd single. I really love dumpty humpty though. :)
anyway, cant wait for the pictures!</description>

					<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Phil: “I’m moving to Nashville this fall. My term with the Navy is almost up. I have about a week left after my leave period expires. The Navy’s been unbelievable in getting behind this the whole season. I’m singing at the Navy’s birthday celebration in October.

“I’m going to record a country record. I’m not signed. We’re not allowed to sign until our (Idol) contract expires, but we’re free to talk, and I’ve got some different offers on the table that I’ll be looking at and considering. Most of us have already started projects.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I think that Phil's quote in that same article tells us a lot about the AI contract and current projects.

On a different note, I'm totally stoked to see what Bshorty dresses up as tomorrow night! :jittery_tb: I'm SO EXCITED!!!!</description>

Laura,

That does speak volumes.  I think this applies to only those who will not be picked up by a Sony/BMG label which is obviously the route that Phil a bunch of the rest will be heading.</description>

					<description>From the seatlle times...

"In a three-minute solo, Lewis demostrated "looping"- "It's when you beat-box, and then sing over it," he explained to the audience--that was both entertaining and unbelievable.

Kl,

Actually, you haven't done anything wrong.  The links are so long sometimes that when you go to add them in, sometimes the link isn't completely highlighted for you to click on it. Just take your mouse and highlight the link right click on it, click copy and either open a new window or and click on your address bar, then right click, then click paste, and hit return.  I hope what I said made sense.  LOL

Nice pics by the way!</description>

					<description>Sorry about that KI.
Yeah, the links are too long. So you really just have to copy and the paste the whole link in a new window.
You can use CTRL C to copy and CTRL to paste. I hope you can view them.</description>
