I knew she would tank.

Her single is at #12847 on ITUNES and even her horrendous cover of "SOTR" is beating it. SAD! To top it all off its probably one of the worst selling IDOL singles yet, she has a bald boyfriend and everyone turned against her.

I hate to say..wait no I dont...


I TOLD YOU SO

hahahah...i laughed since i read the thread name hahahahaha

Chris Daughtry sh1ts on all of that seasons contestants!

Billboard Chart Alert:

Katharine McPhee, this year's second-place finisher on "American Idol," sees her "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" single sell 47,000 copies in its first full week at retail. She also sells an additional 28,000 digital downloads of the song. This all comes just two weeks after "Idol" winner Taylor Hicks crashed the charts with the formal bow of his "Do I Make You Proud?" single. It moved 190,000 copies in its first full week. Hicks also moved 38,000 digital downloads of "Proud" in its first week. His combined sales tally awarded him an easy debut at No. 1 on The Billboard Hot 100, which blends radio airplay, commercial single sales and digital downloads ... It's likely that a No. 1 bow on the Hot 100 for McPhee is out of the question, but she will certainly make a handsome debut on the chart once it is compiled later today (July 5) ... "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" is of course a cover of the classic song from 1939's "The Wizard of Oz," first performed by Judy Garland. The last time the song charted on The Billboard Hot 100 was in 1978 when Gary Tanner took it to No. 69 (as "Over the Rainbow"). Before that, the Demensions peaked at No. 16 in 1960 with their version of the tune. Garland herself never charted on The Billboard Hot 100 with "Rainbow," as the chart did not exist until 1958.

what do you expect, 19E doesnt want another Clay/Ruben to happen. so why would they bother promoting anyone but the winner

You are just pissed because Jasmine Trias is going to end up a mail order bride.

I love Katherine.....................I hope she is succesful.......

Not a real suprise here, both of her singles were terrible imo. SOTR has been overdone in the music industry. But they are better than Grandpa's.

Not even funny Froggert. You and I both know that Taylor Hicks is the real joke. I don't know anybody who has bought that ****** single, so it's obviously payola. As for the single, this just proves that giving each contestant a different "winner's" song was COMPLETELY rigged. Taylor got the better one and his overrated crap ass self is being promoted for no good reason from 19. This has to have been one of the worst mistakes they have EVER made. Oh and Katherine Mcphee sounds like Christina Aguilera when she hits those high notes...(sorry Froggert )

Lol

btw Jasmine trias <333

dude you need to get more friends then. Could it be that people just wasnt that interested in her, and that some of them may have voted, not because they liked her, but because they didn't want taylor to win?
oooooooohhhh so wrong, but

oh come on. Get more friends? We are of course speaking of Fantasia?

I don't know what's happening. EVERYONE I know loves Katherine or at least prefers her to Taylor, but the results seem to be going the other way around.
And, is it just me or Katherine's confessing about her bulimia problems sounded like a desperate cry for attention?

Jason kat bored me to death so I see where people come from when they say she's boring.

Oh well, who cares about either of them?

Flop? Her single will probably debut in the Top 10 which is awesome.

EDIT - I looked into it a bit more and even if she does debut in the Top 10, it's not all that awesome. I doubt RCA was expecting this to that well and if they did, they're retarded. The finale ended weeks ago and Katharine's single was pushed a week ahead. They also cancelled all promo last week for unknown reasons. RCA never sent the single, which is either "My Destiny" or SOTR (RCA never made that clear), to radio. The single wasn't even shipped to alot of retailers unlike Taylor's who still has tons of copies available. I hope RCA takes their foolish mistakes into consideration when she releases her album. They better put effort into the project.

She sucks and will be forgotten soon. She's like Diana except Diana could sing

You think Americans know good music? These poor people think Rihanna is talented! I don't expect Kat to do well here, because the music industry is sad and sucky. They picked a grandpa to win AMERICAN IDOL. Enough said.

And Somewhere Over The Rainbow IS the single.

YUP! But the thing is, like someone mentioned earlier, they don't want another Clay/Ruben thing to happen again. It would be EMBARASSING to have the runner up sell 3x more than the winner of American Idol.

(but shes still sweet)

i still see katherine ending up the more succesful one. i see her being succesful in hollywood period. shes already on the covers of a few magazines, and the whole movie thing with steven s.
