Amanda talks to Jason Castro from American Idol 2008
American Idols Come to Fort Lauderdale
We were lucky enough to attend the American Idol Press Session today at the Bank Atlantic Center. We met David Cook, Syeesha, Ramielle, Jason Castro and Brooke White. They could not have been more gracious and humble! We gave David Cook a copy of an interview that Nicole did with Michael Johns back in 2003 to pass along.Videos to come ASAP.

Wonder What’s On Michael Phelps IPOD?
We keep seeing swimmer Michael Phelps with his earphones from his IPOD on before every race. Wonder what he’s listening to?
Phelps listens to hip-hop music on his ipod. He says it helps motivate him before a race.
While his pre-race tracklist varies, Phelps has said that “I’m Me” by Lil’ Wayne has been on his playlist in Beijing. The track, off Weezy’s EP “The Leak” features the line:
Yes I am the best/and no I ain’t positive I’m definite/I know the game like I’m reffing it
Other artists that populate Phelps’ iPod include: Jay-Z, Young Jeezy, Eminem and Outkast. Occasionally, he’ll throw some techno into the mix, but usually keeps things rap-centric. Phelps doesn’t speak much about the specific songs he’s listening to, but he did tell NBC in 2004 that Eminem’s “‘Til I Collapse” was on his most-played list at Athens. In 2005, he created a playlist for the website Rhapsody that included the songs “Roses” by Outkast, “Burn” by Usher, “Overnight Celebrity” by Twista and “Smile” by G-Unit.
Not exactly my playlist but what works for him……..
