Forget Antonella Barba for a second.
Is Blake Lewis making a move on this year's American Idol champion?
We doubt it. But Jordin Sparks and everyone's favorite beat boxer sure do look chummy during MTV's Total Request Live yesterday. They were just making fans swoon, of course. There's no real love connection here.
Or is there?!?
Katharine McPhee is absolutely beautiful.
She also has a big heart, as the former American Idol runner-up is seen here at Sephora in Hollywood on Wednesday, where she on hand for the Love Lisa: Armed and Glamorous party to raise awareness about skin cancer.
And why not make some cotton candy while there?
As the current crops of American Idol hopefuls, such as Blake Lewis and Melinda Doolittle battle it for this year's crown, let's not forget about the original winner.
Here's an image of Kelly Clarkson from her new music video for the song, "Never Again." Why is she decked out in white?
"Not to get all artsy-fartsy, but I'm all in white, everything is in white, because it's been ripped of innocence," the Grammy winner said.
Katharine McPhee is dominating our American Idol Picture of the Day archives.
Whether she's posing with topless guys, clean-shaved guys, or getting hot and steamy for a music video, McPhee looks good on camera.
The same can be said in this photo below, as Katharine poses with Vanessa Minnillo. We hope her boyfriend, Nick Lachey, doesn't get too jealous ...
Ryan Seacrest is a stud.
And, no, we're not talking about his relationship with Simon Cowell.
But one look at this photo proves that the American Idol host is friends with some rather attractive women. Here he is with Carmen Electra:
After last week's results show, when the 12 finalists could finally breathe easily, TV Guide threw them a lavish party.
Here are a couple of shots of some of this year's American Idol hopefuls with past contestants such as Justin Guarini and Kimberly Caldwell.
Congratulations, of course, are in order for Jennifer Hudson. She walked away with an Academy Award last night.
But Simon Cowell didn't go home empty handed.
The American Idol judge received a VERY warm welcome from Sir Elton John ... one that included a kiss on the cheek.
We wonder how Cowell's girlfriend, Terri Seymour, feels about this greeting. We also wonder if Idol fans will even think twice about such a picture.
After all, Antonella Barba photos have pretty much dominated their imaginations over the last week.
Clay Aiken has many, many fans.
But his supposed biggest Claymate, Diane Knappenberger, challenged the American Idol crooner to a trivia game on The Morning Show with Mike and Juliet in New York on Thursday.
Although not pictured here, Knappenberger scored a tropical vacation for answering questions correctly about the Idol runner-up.
See, not everyone hates Simon Cowell.
Some actually love the American Idol judge. And we're not just talking about Bucky Covington.
Pictured here with Cowell is his long-time girlfriend, Terri Seymour. Simon cares so much about the lovely woman on his left, he said the following:
"When I respect somebody I say I'm not going to marry you, out of respect. I think it's the decent thing to do. A lot of showbiz marriages don't work out."
We guess that makes sense. Either way, these two look happy below:
When your album sales are faltering, what's an American Idol runner-up to do?
Grab a razor, of course.
Seen here, Katharine McPhee provides a pair of model companions with a lady's touch at the launch for the Gillette Fusion Power Phantom in New York on Thursday.
