Chris Daughtry: American Idol in State of Decline

I Like It I Don't Like It
Chris Daughtry who recently dominated at the American Music Awards says that the Idol franchise is starting to lose it. Daughtry came in fourth in the 2006 season of American Idol but went on to sell 3.6 million copies of his debut record.

Chris bashed the Idol in his recent interview with Rolling Stone.

“I feel like it’s definitely lacking some credibility at this point,” says Daughtry. “It’s in a state of decline and if they don’t do something about it, it’s probably not gonna last too much longer. I’m sure that’ll be used against me, but that’s the truth, you know?”

Three top Idols Ruben Studdard, Taylor Hicks and Katharine McPhee have recently lost their record contracts due to poor sales.

“People get tired of seeing people that suck,” he says. “It’s funny at first, but come on. They spend three weeks on people that can’t sing, and that’s what they’re banking it on. [They should] find some people that you can really invest in.”
