Rumor: Katherine quitting AI? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

EmoJoe · 02-28-2006, 05:25 PM

Big buzz on the message boards tonight. Has Katharine McPhee left American Idol? According to one of the hosts of the TV Guide Channel show, Watercooler Talk, which aired last night, there is a RUMOR that Katharine HAS left the show. I'm not sure exactly what was said--I didn't see the show myself. I only watch the TV Guide Channel if an Idol I really like is appearing on Kimberly Caldwell's craptacular "Idol Chat" (GAH! Is she annoying, or what). Other than that? Errrrm, no....

This rumor--that Katharine McPhee has either quit, left, been DQ'd or whatever, from American Idol--hasn't appeared in any of the usual places prior to tonight. When Mario Vazquez quit the Top 12 last year, word had gotten around the internets at least a day in advance of the official announcement. So far? Not a word, not a peep, not a sound. My inbox? Empty, except for your questions. The news outlets? Can't find a thing. My opinion? If this rumor were true, there would be more buzz, more rumor, more innuendo than some passing reference by some "host" on the TV Guide channel.

The girls taped their performance show tonight. If Katharine were NOT in attendance, news would have leaked by now. I'd venture to say this rumor is a big, fat dud. And maybe an attempt by the "hosts" of "Watercooler Talk" to manufacture some of their own. In the meantime, if I hear anything, I'll post it here...

my opinion:

i dont think its true, it would be all over the media...and no ones reporting it...so yeah, i think its just a rumor. it all started on the TV Guide Channel last night, which...isnt the most reliable source. so yeah. it could be true...we'll see. but as for now, its just a rumor

solution to the rumor. (from the same source AS the rumor). katharine wont be leaving, though the rumor was SLIGHTLY true

That rumor about Katharine McPhee leaving Idol had a kernel of truth to it. All of the contestants are feeling the stress and exhaustion from the show's long hours--which showed in last night's low energy performances. And, when Katharine, who lives in the local LA area, wanted to leave the hotel to go home and rest--some of the kids complained. After all, most of the contestants are miles away from their own homes, without the luxury of family nearby, like Katharine. They felt allowing her to go home just wouldn't be fair. The producers made her stay, but her mom was insisting that she be allowed to leave. Mom said that if she "doesn't get the rest that she needs," they would find somebody to get Katharine medically released from her contract. This happened over the weekend--and you will note that Katharine is still with us--so not to worry. That tidbit, making its way around the internets, originally found at Survivor Sucks.
