Love muffins, I told you last week that American Idol Season 6 2nd place finalist Blake Lewis was dropped from Arista Records. Well he gets dropped, and Kristy Lee Cook gets signed! If you don’t remember Kristy, she was the country singer on this past season 7 show. I remember during Mariah Carey week, Mariah told Kristy she gave her chills when she sang. Now you know the girl is good! Kristy has been signed by Arista Nashville, and her debut album will be released this fall. As you see, you can go far with American Idol, you don’t always need to come in 1st or 2nd place to be recognized. Let’s hope Kristy has success with her new found deal and career. We know they are quick to drop ‘em like it’s hot if they don’t go platinum.
