Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Simon always stays relatively quiet throughout the competition; except to give defensive, perhaps degrading, comments. However, all comments are always honest. Once in a blue moon, Simon will give the odd remark that shocks audiences throughout America. Although this is not common, contestants go wild when a compliment is said to them. On soul night, Simon gave a shocking remark to one surprised contestant. He told him/her that he/she was "the dark horse to win this competition." Name that contestant.

Answer: Jon Peter Lewis

Simon's negativity has become a trademark in pop culture and reality television. In a recent episode of "The Simpsons", Bart throws Simon, in character form, at which Simon critiques his punch.
2. This season, one contestant has really stood out in the minds of Americans. Fantasia Barrino, one of the few contestants who brought a unique tone to the competition. With her big lips, and her amazing dynamic ability Fantasia ranked in the final two. Her voice has sparked comments across the panel. The "dawg", Randy Jackson has compared her to an amazing female legend. His exact words were... "you sound like a young ____________, dude."

Answer: Aretha

Fantasia Barrino has set a very high standard this season, prompting Simon to compliment her on several occasions. Her personality is unique, fun, yet very modest. Fantasia is a super star.
3. John Stevens, the young Frank Sinatra, has sparked controversy across America. Against all odds, he made it all the way to the final six. However, before he left the competition, he endured horrible circumstances. Which of the following, did John Stevens not experience?

Answer: Depression

John Stevens had threats that if he didn't leave the show, they would kill him. This put him under tremendous pressure, and when he was voted off, he said he was relieved. In a recent interview, he said that he had to comfort his mother, instead of vice versa.
4. This contestant has improved tremendously throughout the competition. She pulled ahead of the others as the show wore on. However, as much sucess as she has had, she will never forget about her hometown of Snellville. Name this contestant.

Answer: Diana Degarmo

Diana has had several rumours thrown her way as well. One idea thrown around internet forums was that she was pregnant. Although, all contestants are not allowed to view any media aspect while competing, things do get around. Diana is the youngest in the competition, possibly the youngest ever to get this far.
5. Simon has produced many shows, including the original "Pop Idol" in UK, and "American Idol". He also brought the show "Cupid" to life. Did Simon Cowell create both the "WB Superstar", and "The X-Factor"?

Answer: No

Simon has produced, "Cupid", another reality dating show, as well as a new show coming to British television called "The X-Factor". This show will audition all age groups, from 16-30. The name comes from Cowell's term, "you just don't have it." Simon calls "it" the X-factor.
6. Four of the twelve finalists auditioned in one state. Thats right, but only two of those four contestants were actual residents of that city. It is also ironic, that this was American Idol's first visit to this state and produced 25% of the final twelve. Name that state.

Answer: Hawaii

Can you name those four contestants... Jasmine, Camille, JPL, and Diana. The judges were wowed by these wonderfully talented performers. Wearing a white shirt and tie, Simon called JPL a pen salesmen.
7. Which of these contestants' favourite movie was not made by Disney?

Answer: Diana

Jasmine's favourite movie was "Lilo and Stitch", because it represents the importance of family. It also reminded her of the Hawaiian culture. Fantasia and La Toya both like "Finding Nemo", because of the morals and lessons in the story. Diana's favourite. "Bowfinger", was not made by Disney.
8. Jon Peter Lewis, formally known as JPL, was voted out of the competition on movie night. The problem could have been that he got too confident with his signature dancing moves, that he forgot about song choice. He took on the challenges of one amazing artist. Which artist's song did he sing?

Answer: Elvis

The judges thought that it was a bad song choice because Elvis is so hard to sing.
9. The ages of the contestants vary from 16-25. LaToya and Matt are both 25, with Diana and John, both 16. The rest fall in between. What is the average age of the final 12, combined?

Answer: 20

This is the youngest top 12, on average in the history of "American Idol", except of course, "American Juniors".
10. Usually, only one celebrity guest judge appears per show. One night, during season three, there were two guest judges (a husband and wife pair). On what night were there two guest judges?

Answer: Motown

Ashford and Simpson did an awesome job that night. With time constraints, Ashford gave the first comment, then Simpson gave the comments for the next contestant. Let us all hope "American Idol" will be back for a fourth season.
