In the stars
Fox/Frank Micelotta
If you look to the stars for answers (or if you're just a horoscope junkie), it's no surprise that someone is predicting an "American Idol" winner based on astrological signposts.
Astrology expert/author Jeff Jawer gave his starry thoughts on the Final 3 contestants (shown above) to AOL Horoscopes. A couple of surprises, but no real shockers. One thing's for sure: Apparently Scorpios (that would be me) have no singing abilities.
* Melinda Doolittle: Jeff got a jolt when he found out Melinda has two different published birth dates - Oct. 6 and Dec. 1, 1977. The first makes her a people-pleasing Libra with a moon in cautious but caring Cancer. The second gives her a Sagittarius sun with a Leo moon. Now I don't know dittle except that Leo is a lion, and I'm married to a Sagittarius. But the latter two are outgoing fire signs, according to Jeff, and that really doesn't suit our oft-reserved Melinda. Jeff says that, while there are quiet Sagittarians, the Libra influence would serve her better.
* Blake Lewis: It might not be star power, but his darker hair could be a bad sign for Blake. Apparently, his fans prefer the blond, spikey hair over his current black, moody look - even with highlighted bangs. But at least he only has one birth date - July 21, 1981. His sun is in Cancer, his moon is in Pisces - both "sensitive water signs." Alas, Jeff says the stars aren't lining up nicely for next week's finale, so he's predicting our beatboxer will finish third. (That would be Wednesday!)
* Jordin Sparks: She was born on Dec. 22, 1989, and is very mature for her 17 years. Her sun is in "ambitious and practical" Capricorn. And, like a racehorse that prefers to hold back, Jeff thinks Jordin doesn't have to be a fast starter to win the race. He adds her astrological patterns are lining up for the big finish and, that if planetary forces are the key, she should be the favorite. But what the heck? This still is a singing competition, right? It's not "Singing With the Stars." Jeff adds that Jordin might not be the hitmaker of the remaining contestants, but that didn't hinder Ruben Studdard (Season 2) and last year's winner Taylor Hicks. Or did it?
OK, so blah, blah, blah, who does Jeff believe will win? (Don't read on if you don't want to know.)
"The winner will probably be Melinda barely ahead of Jordin, with Blake coming in third."
