So, who would you consider a star?
An Oscar winning actress? No, no Idol has ever won an Oscar… oh, wait… Jennifer Hudson did.
How about someone how has won 5 CMT awards, 2 CMA Awards, 2 ACM Awards, and 2 Grammy’s… in only two years. No Idol could do that right… they don’t have the “raw talent”. But wait, Carrie Underwood did!
And I don’t even want to take the time to list all of the awards that Kelly Clarkson has one.
You may not like AI, but you can’t deny the show churns out stars. That is part of the draw that keeps people watching.
