What's up next for our recently ousted
Idol contestants?
According to
AOL's exit interviews, Antonella Barba WILL NOT be posing in
Playboy. She did, however, tell
People, she is "not opposed to acting or modeling or something." And she wants to "do pop music," but would add her own style to it.
Meanwhile, Sundance is heading back to Texas to get a band together. He told
People, "I'm going to throw down everywhere I can do it and just be a road warrior."
Sundance doesn't hold a grudge against Sanjaya, whom he thinks will "go far" especially if he gets some "confidence in his vocals."
Sabrina Sloan and Jared Cotter also went home last Thursday night. They both told
AOL that they were shocked to be going home so soon. To read more of the

Hey, Brigitte here with TV Squad Daily. I'll be covering the TV stories I find interesting each day, Monday through Friday, in this video blog.
Today on TV Squad Daily:
- The Sopranos is having a tough time getting a permit to film in a New Jersey town, partially because the mayor's wife is not a fan.
- Real-life dog whisperer Caesar Millan will guest star as himself later this month on Ghost Whisperer.
- Ten years from now, Antonella Barba may be the first person to have a legitimate claim that "American Idol ruined my life." Let's hope not.

Maybe it's because he takes his style queues from Michael Jackson, but
Sanjaya Malakar -- if AOL online voters have it right -- will bid
American Idol adieu tonight. He and 22-year-old
AJ Tabaldo are the bottom two guys in the
Top 24 Ranking Poll, where users choose their favorite contestants.
As for the girls, it's a three-way tie. The doomed, according to AOL users, include professional dog walker Leslie Hunt, 24-year-old Alaina Alexander and Internet pin-up girl Antonella Barba.

Due to
Idol's tight control over their semifinalists (they're currently in
Idol lockdown and are not allowed any contact with the press), Antonella Barba hasn't been able to defend herself or make a public statement regarding
all those naughty online photos.
Luckily for Antonella, her best friend Amanda Coluccio, who auditioned with Antonella and made it to Hollywood,
is speaking out for her. Amanda claims that the girl pictured in the pornographic photos IS NOT Antonella.

Thanks to Tyra Banks -- supermodel, talk show host, and self-appointed "Boob Tester" -- we now have official confirmation that Katharine McPhee's breasts are real. And thanks to
The Tyra Banks Show, we also have
video confirmation, as well.
Honestly, I'm just wondering when women became so damn grabby? First photos surface showing
Idol semifinalist
Antonella Barba cupping a girlfriend's naked breast. And now we get to watch as Tyra grabs and shakes Katharine's tatas like they're couple of fresh melons at the Acme Supermarket.

Jersey's own Antonella Barba may not win
American Idol this year, but she's already become a household name, earning fame (or is it infamy?) thanks to a seemingly endless supply of naughty, naked, and nasty photographs (that become nastier by the day) appearing all over the internet.
According to
Entertainment Weekly,
Idol producer Nigel Lythgoe hasn't seen any of the photographs, and only became aware of the "sexualy explicit shots" from
EW. Lythgoe responded, ''It's sad, isn't it, that your best friends are the ones that come forward with information that will go to
Smoking Gun or put your photographs on the web?''

According to the comments
here and
here, I was not alone in my assessment of Sundance and Antonella's poor performances this week on
Idol. Many of you thought those two would be going home. And perhaps they would have -- if
Vote for the Worst didn't champion them both this week.
To me Antonella and Sundance represent two of the biggest disappointments this year. They both received quite a bit of early buzz and way more exposure than some of the other semifinalists. And yet, both have given lackluster performances since hitting Hollywood.
