Face it-- James Durbin is a rock star.

Aspergian Idol James Durbin kept up his journey to the top with strong renditions of "Don't Stop Believing" and "Love Potion Number 9."  He even got some tips from Lady Gaga (and his hips did look great tonight as a result).

He's a star.  We love him.

James Durbin tears up as he sings Badfinger's "Without You"

There aren't very many things that take priority for me over encouraging you all to vote for James Durbin on American Idol.  But dinner with my parents for their anniversary and Mother's Day does, so I'm extremely late to the party here.

James performed "Closer to the Edge" and "Without You."  Although the first song was a technically better performance, it was the emotionally riveting second song, which James had been unable to get through in rehearsal, that really showed his star power.

I'm experimenting with a new publishing tool called Storify.  It lets you gather social media to tell a story.  In this case, I'm expanding on coverage of James Durbin and American Idol's Carole King week. 

I'd really appreciate it if you'd let me know what you think about Storify, especially if you have any problems with it. 

Thanks!
