Since when did American Idol become a red-carpet worthy event? Do you know that, right now, on TV, they are showing the American Idol Live Red Carpet?

I seriously DO NOT understand! I mean, I get that people really like the reality show itself–I used to watch it. It’s totally rags-to-riches, dream-come-true stuff. So it’s not that I don’t get the buzz surrounding the show.

But does it deserve a red carpet gab fest outside the Kodak Theatre? I mean, hell, Jillian Barberi is wearing JEANS. NO ONE should wear JEANS while interviewing anyone on the red carpet outside the freakin’ Kodak Theatre. Right there, you know American Idol isn’t important enough to have this silly red carpet thing.

Needless to say, I won’t be watching it tonight. But Altouse has been blogging it. Check there for more about tonight’s show.
