So, from reading over at TV Without Pity, it appears that the "twist" on tonight's American Idol will be that four, rather than two, wild cards will get into the finals. Which means I'll get to type the phrase "camera whore Kimberly Caldwell" several more times, as I can't see the judges not picking her to move on (assuming America doesn't decide on its own that it wants more of camera whore Kimberly Caldwell). Not sure how many the judges pick versus the public (I'm assuming 2 for each). Given this dilution, I wonder at what point they'll just say to hell with it and make the 200+ who get to Glendale all semifinalists. The show may go longer than World Cup qualifying.

But there's supposed to be an added twist to make up for the one that got spilled (by the show's own website, apparently). My guess is that they'll ship in some of the spurned gold-diggers from Joe Millionaire to sing away. It would fit with Simon's apparent wish for more attractive women.

Maybe camera whore Kimberly Caldwell will fill that niche for him.
