Adam Lambert and Madonna Duet in the works??

Think about it: Earlier this week, it was reported that Adam had logged studio time with Lady Gaga producer RedOne, so despite his rocker tendencies, theIdol runner-up is clearly not afraid of getting his dance on. And now, if you will, let your mind travel back to Madonna's seminal 1998Ray of Light CD -- yes we are all that old -- an electronica extravaganza that still managed to keep a foot in guitar-rock genre. Suddenly, I'm thinking Adam and Madge could team up for a cover of "Candy Perfume Girl" or "Drowned World/Substitute for Love," or best of all "Swim" (embedded after the jump for the uninitiated).

Not only would the hookup make sense musically, but it would also be a smart career move. For Adam, a Madonna duet would give him instant credibility outside the Idol universe -- something he'll need to break through the anti-Idol prejudice held by many a radio-station programmer. For Madonna, being the first superstar artist to hit the studio with Adam would attach her to a young, exciting artist without the appearance that she's suddenly become a follower instead of a leader (a problem that gave "Me Against the Music" and "4 Minutes to Save the World" a slight whiff of desperation). Plus, girlfriend could use some fresh gay-cred points, no?

What do you think? Would an Adam-Madonna collaboration be a match made in musical heaven, or an aural abomination? And which artist would benefit more from a duet?

Barack Obama: 'I Have Been an Imperfect Father'

President Barack Obama has written a heartfelt Father's Day message acknowledging his own shortcomings as a dad to daughters Malia, 10, Sasha, 8. 

"I know I have been an imperfect father. I know I have made mistakes," Obama admits in a letter to be published in this week's Parade magazine.

Ok, is it just me or is it that Obama keeps jumping into every aspect of our lives.  Why not just rename the country to The United States of Obama already.  I mean come on.  Love him or hate him this guy just seems to love the limelight.  I think he needs to spend more time running the country and less time putting his face all over the place.  "I have been an imperfect father..." No duh dip wad last I checked you can't walk on water or create life from nothing so of course you've been an imperfect father so why do I need to hear about it when I can just look at my own father.

Susan Boyle Cancels Another Concert

Susan Boyle canceled her Thursday performance in Liverpool – the second time she has missed a show on the current Britain's Got Talenttour, after she failed to appear on stage last weekend in Manchester. 

"She had a rest day," says her rep of this latest cancellation, while a source adds that, contrary to some reports, Boyle was not pining for her cat at home. "She certainly wasn't shouting out for Pebbles," says her rep.  

Here's what I'm thinking.  Can you say TOTAL ECLIPSE OF A MENTAL BREAKDOWN here?  This woman was thrust into the spotlight and unlike many others who have had time to embrace their fame she has not.  Add into the mix the paparazzi who we all know are like vultures and possibly just about anyone who ever knew her that now wants something from her and you have a recipe for disaster! 

DNA tests show Michigan man is not 1955 missing toddler

We didn't need Maury for this one... DNA test results reveal that a Michigan man is not a Long Island, New York, boy who went missing 54 years ago, according to the FBI.

Could we now have a lady, any lady just run around and backstage crying NO NO NO!  That would be so Maury!

'Idol' Rocker Joins Evanescence Offshoot

Irish rocker Carly Smithson, the 'American Idol' vet with huge pipes, has joined forces with members of one of the biggest bands of the decade, Evanescence. Smithson essentially replaces singer Amy Lee in the band, which is calling itself The Fallen.

Evanescence has slowly fallen apart since band members began leaving the group after their debut album, 'Fallen,' which has sold over 15 million copies worldwide. Lee put out another album in 2006, 'The Open Door,' but without Moody and other members. Smithson bears a striking resemblance to Lee, both in appearance and in their voices.

Smithson, who placed sixth on the seventh season of 'Idol,' says she's confident she'll succeed in the world of arena-style rock.

If you ask me I'd rather have the real thing that this apparent knock-off.  BRING ME TO LIFE!

Jon & Kate announcing a major decision Monday

The TLC network says its biggest stars, Jon and Kate Gosselin, will announce a major decision on their reality show, "Jon & Kate Plus 8."

TLC isn't commenting on what the news will be from these parents of 8-year-old twins and 5-year-old sextuplets. But viewers who have witnessed the Gosselins' marriage coming unraveled are clearly welcome to draw their own conclusions leading up to Monday's episode. And to show up in droves to see it. The show is scheduled to air at 9 p.m. EDT.

In a promotional video posted by TLC hyping the special one-hour edition, Kate Gosselin says, "Recently, we've made some life-changing decisions ... ones that we hope will bring each of us some peace."

Here I'm thinking that they are going to announce that they are either a) are moving in with Angelina Jolie or b) including a special guest star (ala Heather Locklear in Melrose Place) to their series, one Nadya Denise Doud-Suleman Gutierrez"along with her brood.  That would be Jon & Kate plus 8 with Special guest star Nadya Denise Doud-Suleman Gutierrez and 14 for a grand total of 22!  Anyone have pick up sticks?!
