10/23: Carrie Underwood goes wax, Diana DeGarmo stalker goes on trial
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Carrie Underwood unveiled her wax version of herself Wednesday at Madame Tussauds Museum in New York City.
I won’t dare make any jokes about this because really, it’s way too easy. I’ll leave that up to you!

She also has a special holiday version of “Carnival Ride” out just on Wal-Mart.. Five Christmas songs are included.
-Poor Diana DeGarmo has suffered harassment from an Australian hacker/stalker, who has broken into her cel phone and her computer the past two years and sent her nasty emails and phone calls. The woman Tanya Maree Quattrocchi will stand trial for her actions.
Here’s an excerpt from the Herald Sun.
“I have moved twice and she still finds me. I cannot have any private or professional life without her infiltrating it,” Ms DeGarmo said in a statement.
“No matter what I do I cannot get away from her. She is still to this day stealing my online identity and harassing my friends, family and myself,” she said.
The court heard Ms Quattrocchi allegedly sent emails stating the singer wanted to have sex with her brother, loved older men and was a lesbian.
This woman needs to be kept away from all electronics! What a nut!
-David Cook previews his album for Rolling Stone
A preview of eight tracks suggests that listeners can expect radio-ready anthems like the sweeping, U2-esque “Come Back to Me,” some aggro rockers like “Bar Bi Sol” and plenty of the soaring voice that the AI judges loved.
-MJ got a cool tip showing a photo of Daughtry producer Howard Benson with Kelly Clarkson and Daughtry. Is a duet forthcoming?

-And proving how nice those folks in Nashville can be, Kristy Lee Cook has been invited to perform at the Grand Ol’ Opry.
