Strange Flu Makes Idol’s Hollywood Week Hard to Stomach
Call me an addict if you will . . . but I have seen EVERY single episode of EVERY single season of American Idol. But, I have never seen anything like last night's episode about Hollywood Week. Instead of finding America's next great singing superstar, Idol needed to find a doctor! Stat! A horrible stomach bug broke out and contestants were tossing cookies everywhere. In fact, I think this is the only Idol episode I've ever seen when there were NO performances. As our Idol expert, Steve Thompson, explains, this was more like a scene from Contagion, Outbreak, or 28 Days Later!
Friday on the Waking Crew, Steve chatted with Moon and me to discuss Vomitpalooza 2012!
