Michael interviews
Michael begins a week-long press tour today. We'll posts video and snippets of his interviews as we get them:
Quotes from today’s press conference:
Is having young kids a disadvantage?
“Actually, I would consider myself at an advantage because I have a level of inspiration from something that someone without kids doesn’t get to experience. They are rock solid and they are the core of my purpose. They’ve driven me into this and have been so inspiring in the way that they love me and support me and if anything it would be an advantage rather than a disadvantage. Without a doubt difficult and very hard to deal with at times, missing them, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything.”
He describes the album he’ll make, “It’s definitely gonna be an R&B pop soul album. I really like the R&B pop style of Justin Timberlake, all the way across the aisle to Gavin Degraw and bringing in some of that soulful rock, just a combination of those kinds of things.”
Does Simon and Paula’s horsing around frustrate him?
“Number one, I enjoy that because what people need to understand is that this is supposed to be a fun thing. It’s supposed to be enjoyable, it’s supposed to be the time of our lives and they help make it that by goofing around–like Simon coloring on Paula’s face. That was just absolutely hilarious. It does make it complicated sometimes when, if you may feel like they’re not really listening to you, but overall the fun that they’re having on the show makes everybody smile and that’s what entertainment is all about–bringing a positive light to the TV world.”
He and Danny and Anoop played basketball the other night. What kind of player is Anoop?
“Anoop can play some ball, but I’ll tell you he’s a very intense basketball player…and when Anoop missed he did not like it. He would beat himself up until he got it. Very intense, very passionate about a sport that he loves very much.”
Michael is a songwriter, “There’s something that America does not know so much about me, but they’ll find out. I am a serious writer and I’ve written over 890 songs since the age of 14. And there’s a lot of stories…a lot of life, hard lived life, good lived life and my happiness that I’ve experienced in life now all through my music and I’m gonna share it.”

Victory dance but for how long?
Michael's got a tough week ahead. He'll be performing Tuesday against the 12 dancing here. Only three will advance, one girl, one boy and one other. So two boys max and he's against Danny Gokie and Anoop.. oh no... That's three of our favorite boys in one show. Let's hope the judges pick one up in the wild card round.

Watch it again and again
On second (and third) review, Michael did a lot better than we remember, especially when you compare him to everyone else. We think everyone's nerves must have been on edge because most of our favorites were lackluster.

It's no 'Star Search' but it's a good start
We've obtained exclusive video of Michael performing at church in December. By our calculations, he already knew how he did in tonight's show. He auditioned in Phoenix in July and Hollywood week was filmed in November. We're told contestants find out a few days before Wednesday's Top 36 announcement whether or not they made it (so he should know by now). We can't wait to find out ourselves! GO MICHAEL. Anyway, he's the grainy guy behind the pastor.. we swear!
Also, watch video from last week's service at Harvest Church and an interview with the pastor.
