Just recently read a few posts online about American Idol hopeful, Emily Wynne-Hughes, and her band, Go Betty Go. Thing is, it looks like Emily wasn't the original vocalist of Go Betty Go. For some reason, the original vocalist left (or was replaced?) so the band held auditions for that role and Emily bagged it. So I wonder what's going on in the minds of the other Go Betty Go members.
I mean, do they want Emily Wynne-Hughes to be the next American Idol? But if she wins, it gets tricky. They lose their vocalist. Unless of course, Emily finds a way to be both the American Idol and the Go Betty Go lead vocalist, but I rather doubt the folks behind American Idol would let that happen. After all, whoever wins is their product, and they'll be looking to mold their product into the image they can best market. Much easier to mold an individual, as opposed to working on an entire band. But then again, if Emily wins, then the band'll get some attention as the band that the American Idol formerly sang with. But would that even be welcomed?
If Emily Wynne-Hughes loses of course, then all this is moot. If she doesn't become the next American Idol, then she can at least go back to performing with her mates.

Emily Wynne-Hughes
The American Idol contestant named Emily Wynne-Hughes is actually one of those persons who has a lot of information about her available online. At least and especially compared to a lot of the other Idol hopefuls who really are more or less completely unknown. So what do we know about Emily?
Well, first of all, Emily Wynne-Hughes has herself a MySpace profile. Granted, that isn't really anything at all close to a rare occurrence since just about every musician and his or her mother has a MySpace profile page nowadays. Still, it's a good place to start. And really I feel that if a person is serious about having some sort of a music career, and MySpace profile page probably will be one of his or her first considerations. Anyway, on to the page. It looks like Emily actually is part of a band called, Go Betty Go. I wonder why they called it that. Perhaps it's a take on that movie, Run Lola Run? Or maybe something I'm not particularly getting right now.
According to the page, Go Betty Go's music runs in the Pop Punk, Rock and Latin genres. Let me just add here though that I really would prefer it if these MySpace profile pages didn't automatically play music. I mean, come on. If a person takes the time to go to your profile page, then that person's probably heard of your music, or heard about you from a friend, or for some reason find's you or your group or your sound interesting, so he or she'll probably click on your music playlist anyway. Please don't force it on visitors.
Anyway, there's something on the page about Europe Tour dates. A Europe tour? Sounds pretty significant. I guess this band's been doing pretty well for itself. I see 2 albums on the page playlist. One is called, Worst Enemy, and contains 5 songs, You're Your Worst Enemy, It's Too Bad, Son Mis Locuras, Go Away, and C'mon. The other is called, Nothing is More, and contains 12 tracks. Geez. Do I type all their names in here? Oh, alright. The songs are Saturday, I'm From LA, Get Out, The Pirate Song, You Want it All, No Hay Perdon, Runaway, Crumbling Down, Ticking Bombs, Laugh Again, Donde Voy, and Unreal. Alright, I hope I didn't forget to type any of those songs.
There's also something here about how Emily made an appearance at a Quentin Tarantino's birthday bash. So it does look like she's a pretty seasoned performer. A band. Tours. Performing at celebrities' birthdays. It will be interesting to see how that amount of experience translates to the American Idol competition. Especially since it doesn't look like she's participated before.
So that's Emily Wynne-Hughes for you.
