American Idol Doesn't Have McPheever
Although fellow Season 5 competitors Elliot Yamin, Kellie Pickler, Taylor Hicks and Chris Daughtry all returned for guest spots this season, McPhee, 23, was missing from the rundown â" and it was not by choice.
"Katharine called them herself, trying to get on the [finale]," a source close to the singer tells Us. "She's really hurt."
But she wasn't the only former Idol who got dissed. When Sony/BMG president Clive Davis addressed the TV audience, he made sure to plug Taylor Hicks' new single, but failed to mention Kelly Clarkson's latest single or her forthcoming CD, My December, over which the two have reportedly butted heads.
Now this is odd!! Why wouldn't American Idol want Katharine to show up?! Very weird. Maybe the bitch wanted to perform and the only ones performing were the American Idol winners, not losers. Either way, I'm confused.

I think she should have been on there. She could have used the publicity for her new single. Her cd isn't that bad actually and it's a shame that Idol isn't getting behind her.
