American Idol. Queen. "Hunh?", you may say. Why? Well, maybe Queen's just trying to boost their profile with the kiddies out there that aren't in the know. After all, May's said they'll never do a show like INXS did... so maybe it's just a different way to get publicity on TV. It could also be an attempt to boost ticket sales for their musical.

Whatever it is, that's the theme this week. American Idol hopefuls sing their best Queen.

Here're some ideas on what might or should be done:

Chris - We Are The Champions
Taylor - Somebody To Love
Elliot - Don't Stop Me Now
Katharine - Under Pressure
Paris - You're My Best Friend
Kellie - Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Ace - Killer Queen
Bucky - Fat Bottomed Girls

I think the choice for Ace is good... it's rockin' and lets him do his high-note thang. There is no other song better for Bucky. Plus, he can dedicate it to the newly-dropped Mandisa. Kellie's is good 'cause of the country slant (the popular Yoakam version). I think either this or "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" would be good for Taylor. Elliot doing "Don't..." lets him canoodle all around, while still being powerful & rocky for once. Chris' song wouldn't let him yell the whole thing, which would be good for everyone. Paris & Katharine are tougher to pick for if those other songs are gone. Go figure, eh? It's hard to pick songs for girls from a band named Queen with a gay lead singer.
