BritWeek 2008 begins with some 'Idol' worship
ODDLY ENOUGH, it was the remaining "American Idol" contestants who were special guests at the BritWeek 2008 party in Los Angeles. Though she isn't British, Dublin-born Carly Smithson would have been the closest that "AI" Season 7 came to that side of the pond, had she not been voted off a day earlier. Bloody shame, that.
