Future 'Idol' contenstants advised to be good looking and flirt with the judges.
News: In a startlingly 'Tough Enough'-esque move, ex- 'American Idol'
finalist Tamyra Gray has been signed to a developmental record contract
despite being voted off the show two weeks ago. She's now affiliated with 19
Entertainment, run by Simon Fuller. Fuller is also the creator of the
'American Idol' television show and the man responsible for forming previous
pop stars S-Club-7 and the Spice Girls, as well as signing the paychecks of
everyone's favorite pompous Brit, 'Idol' judge Simon Cowell. No word yet on
when Tamyra's album will even be recorded, but a clause in her 'Idol'
contract prevents her from releasing it until three months after the winner
releases either his or her full length album.
