Kellie Pickler and Idol Gives Back

It's time for Kellie Pickler. I have to admit, I think she's so stupidly adorable... It's too bad that sitcom deal never panned out - I totally would have watched her on TV - I think she's really funny.

However, hasn't she kind of worn out that "Red High Heels" song? Someone please tell me - didn't she come back last season and sing that song? I, for one, am a little tired of this song, but she's still more entertaining than Blake Lewis, so I'll stick it out. I actually love her dress, too. She looks beautiful.

Idol Gives Back returns April 9, but what about the 76 million dollars we gave last year? Ryan says a portion went to Angola to fight malaria. They show a clip of Fantasia Barrino and Elliott Yamin in Angola, giving out bed nets. Nobody said anything about having to hear Fantasia sing... I can't handle it... fast forward...
Next, hey go to the hospital and they show Elliott a newborn and tells him that it is a tradition to name children after visitors and that the newborn had been named Elliott. He looks pretty touched and starts crying.

More than 3,000 children die of malaria every day and the money donated last year helped distribute over 8 million nets across Africa, to help save some lives.
