Why do you have such a cynical attitude? Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood have certainly not developed that way. What makes you think Jordin Sparks is any different?

I'm not absolutely sure why I'm so cynical. It probably has something to do with my childhood or the string of events that have led me to this exact point in time and space.
I wouldn't even call it cynical. I like to call is realism. I'll assume what is likely to happen or what has happened before under the same or similar cirumstances. Deductive reasoning if you will. With my own little negative spin.
True, others have gone different ways. It's all about personal morals, ethics and the things you hold dear and how determined you are to never let anything interfere with them. Some people hold high morals and ethics but will let something interfere if it gets them what they want. Here's a bad example;
[hr]
(humor me) say Brit wanted to be a good person, wanted marriage before a child and had very high morals and ethics but also wanted some hot trophy boyfriend. Because she wanted that more than most anything else, she disregarded her morals and ethics and got royally screwed.
Anyways....I guess I just like to see people who can or already do have anything they want lose most of it all. That's not to say I want to see some poor single mom win the 10 billion dollar lottery then lose her kids and winning ticket in some tragic car crash. I like to see immoral, unethical celebrities or CEOs or politicians fail miserably and trip over their lies trying to save face.
edit: I shouldn't put I LIKE to see that happen because deep down, I don't. I'm used to seeing that happen and am relieved when it happens to those who deserve it.

I have no idea who carrie underwood is, and that taylor hicks is horrible. i saw him on a ford commercial and thats it. they probley just stopped airing it because he sucks so bad. nobody listens to his music if he even has any. american idol is a joke

It amazes me how narrow-minded some of the above statements are.
Bill Gates is a bad man? In the past decade, he has given away seven billion dollars to very good causes. How is that bad?
American Idol is a joke? From what perspective? It draws 20-30 million viewers every single week. On top of that, they finally realized the power that their show has by holding an "Idol Gives Back" show which raised over 60 million dollars who people in poverty. How is that a joke?
No one listens to country? According to the Recording Industry Association of America, country music albums sell the second most number of albums every single year, only behind rock music. Carrie Underwood has been in the billboard top 10 for her album "Some Hearts" for 79 weeks. She cleaned up at the Grammy's.
