When the winner is announced on Wednesday’s American Idol finale be ready for the lucky guy or gal to yell “I’m going to Disney Word!” shortly after being crowned the winner.
Word is that either Lee DeWyze or Crystal Bowersox will sing the popular Disney song “When You Wish Upon A Star” for a Disney commercial that is set to air on television within hours of the AI finale and that Disney cameras will be on hand to capture the winners announcement that they are going to the park – but why?
Well, this is all a very clever marketing tactic to get viewers of the show excited about “The American Idol Experience” attraction at the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida – which is the first major theme-park attraction in the world based on a television series.
So, do you think this promotion will work?

Congratulations are in order for American Idol alum David Archuleta who was recently voted the best American Idol contestant of all time!
Billboard created a poll to find out who was the favorite AI male and female contestant – and David Archuleta and Carrie Underwood won. Then, they ran a poll to see who was the favorite between the two, and David won with a whopping 92% of the votes!
David said about winning the poll:
I guess the fans I have are just really supportive. I think it’s cool that people consider me their favorite, especially because it’s Billboard. I check Billboard every week and I’m starting to get the magazine more, and I have a Billboard book, so it’s just funny that this is from Billboard, too. It’s not just some teen website, you know? It’s Billboard. I think that’s cool.
Congratulations David!

If you tuned in for the finale of ABC’s series LOST you know that at the very end during the credits there were images of a plane crash on the island – leading many fans to believe that the Losties had died in the Oceanic Flight 815 wreck, but it turns out the producers are not the ones who included the footage!
An ABC rep for the show said:
The images shown during the end credits of the Lost finale, which included shots of Oceanic 815 on a deserted beach, were not part of the episode but were a visual aid to allow the viewer to decompress before heading into the news.
Interesting! Does that clear up any confusion you had about the series finale? Probably not…
