:: Who else fainted and needed smelling salts to be revived after Michael Lynche’s almost-elimination last night? We asked for more dramatic watercooler moments from this show, and we received. [Idolator]

:: The rumor going around is that Adam Lambert will mentor the Idols during an Elvis-themed week, as rehearsals took place at the Aria hotel in Las Vegas, where the Cirque Du Soleil show Viva Elvis takes place. We’d still much prefer a David Bowie-themed week. Oh well, maybe on The X Factor. [The Wrap]

:: Apparently, Tim Urban was considering doing a reggae version of “All My Loving.” Would it have mattered? We doubt he would have landed in the Bottom 3 even if he was accompanied by armpit noises and somebody blowing into a pickle jug. [Idol Tracker]

:: Watch another rousing edition of American SuicIdol, featuring didgeridoos and bapgpipes and whatever you want to call the frilly mess Siobhan was wearing. [Best Week Ever]

:: After the jump, MTV’s Jim Cantiello tells you everything you need to know about the week in Idol in one minute, or as we like to call it, Yawn in 60 Seconds. [MTV]
