Melinda Doolittle Is Adorable!

Okay, I pinky swear that we will not become a pro-American Idol fan freak site where we post about AI every day, but please indulge me for a minute . . . today I met Melinda Doolittle at her autograph signing event/promo tour for Edy’s ice cream, and I wanted to share the experience. I know it’s incredibly lame/gay/weird to go as a fan to these things, but honestly Melinda is the only contestant in seven AI seasons who has blown my mind with their vocals, thus I deemed meeting her worth suffering the embarrassment of telling my friends that I met a former AI contestant at an autograph signing at a grocery store.

All that aside . . Melinda has an amazing, warm personality! As conversations that involve me typically do, it quickly devolved into being all about me when she complimented my purple eye shadow–MAC pigment in “Violet,” thank you. I meant to ask her if she was recording an album–but we got talking about me. Anyway, if you loved Melinda on Season 6 of AI, you’d love her more in person. She’s really pretty, taller than I thought she’d be, and just a very warm person. It was so cute to watch her hug all over a two year boy who was sitting on her lap.

I told her that she was the only female contestant from AI that I would consider coming out to see–hot male ones, yeah, but any other female no. Speaking of “hot” male contestants, have a gander at the “hot” one this year, Michael Lee Johns, i.e. Michael Hutchence and Jim Morrison wannabe . . .
