ANGELES (AP) — Coming in second on "American Idol" may still be a path
to superstardom, but it no longer offers guaranteed paychecks worthy of
the next pop idol or rock star.
Wednesday night's runner-up, 16-year-old Jessica Sanchez, doesn't
have a definite shot at producing an album and could be paid as little
as $30,000 in advances for recording singles, according to the "Idol"
contract she and other Season 11 contestants signed earlier this year.The agreement appears to be the first time in "Idol's" history that producers are not offering the show's runner-up an album deal that in previous years came with a guaranteed advance of at least $175,000, an Associated Press review of the Fox show's contracts reveals..."
But let's face it she will have endorsement deals and I have the sneaking suspicion that her future album will sell much more than the handsome Philip.
