:: Angela Martin’s luck is finally turning around—the ousted contestant appeared on Ellen this morning, and the host dropped a bombshell on her—she promised to find Angela a record label, and Kara DioGuardi would be writing her a song. Don’t be too excited, yet, Angela—that song could be “No Boundaries.” [Zap 2 It]

:: Season 6’s Melinda Doolittle and Season 7’s David Archuleta will join other Idol alum (like Clay Aiken and Ruben Studdard) in penning their memoirs. Both books are out May 4, otherwise known as National Idol Alum Memoir Day. [MJsbigblog]

:: Apparently, Chris Golightly was under contract with a recording company when he auditioned for Idol, but the company head would have released him had the show’s producers been a little bit more timely with their end of the paperwork. We’re sorry for Chris, but does it even matter? Everyone knows a girl is winning this season. [Idol Chatter]
