Verily, we know not what an evil it is to indulge ourselves, and to make an idol of our will.
Yeah... I was a singer as a kid. I had a lot of stage fright, and what's happened with 'Idol,' it has got me past so much of that.
The prospect of being immortal doesn't excite me, but the prospect of being a materialistic idol for four years does appeal.
I've often stood silent at a party for hours listening to my movie idols turn into dull and little people.
We do remember once we were wrong sacrificing everything for idols and stones likewise today for ghost and phantoms.
I'm not unattractive, but I'm not a matinee idol. I think I have a very non-threatening look - I'm fine, I'm right in the middle.
Of course that was my idol, Son House. I think he did a lot for the Mississippi slide down there.
There's a lot of things that are said on the American Idol message board. I quit reading them because most of the people are very mean.
My brothers were my idols. I've always looked up to them and was proud to be their baby sister. I felt like they gave me some cool points, too.
My father is my idol, so I always did everything like him. He used to work two jobs and still come home happy every night.
And my dad wanted me to play the trumpet because that's what he liked. His idol was Louis Armstrong. My dad thought my teeth came together in a way that was perfect for playing the trumpet.
'American Idol' has done a great job of defaming my name and throwing a lot of mud at me for the past two years, so that set up a lot of roadblocks for me.
I do watch 'American Idol' sometimes. It's not really that pleasurable... I take that back. It is the epitome of a guilty pleasure. Sometimes there's some good singers on that show.
Before 'Idol,' I was lost... Now, I've actually followed through with something. I am a better man for it!
I went to a Canadian college for performing arts and then I auditioned for Canadian Idol. That honestly was my golden ticket.
Every one of us is, even from his mother's womb, a master craftsman of idols.
A champion owes everybody something. He can never pay back for all the help he got, for making him an idol.
I would switch roles with Madonna for a day. Or if Audrey Hepburn was still alive, Audrey Hepburn. I love Audrey Hepburn. She's one of my idols, also.
Fiona Shaw is one of my idols. She's phenomenatastic. I just make up a word for her - that's how much I love her.
My idol is Bea Arthur. I really tried to follow her example. She is one of my comedy 'she-roes.'
The biggest risk I've ever taken is going on American Idol and trying to be myself. I wasn't going to try too hard to conform, and I knew that it could possibly not work out.
