American Idol’s reigning champ is Jordin Sparks, but nobody seems to care.

The young, boring singer had a hit with the beyond horrible pop ballad, “Tattoo,”mp3  but something about her has failed to connect with audiences the way Idol superstars Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson have.

With so many Idol “winners” fading quickly into obscurity, does it really matter whether David Cook or David Archuleta win? Or will they be forgotten just as quickly as Season Five winner? (It was gray-haired Soul Patrol singer Taylor Hicks, in case you forgot.)

This year’s big contest is set to be decided as the two Davids face-off on this week’s episode of American Idol. Unfortunately, they’re both pretty lame in their own, not-so-special way.

Archuleta is the sweet young kid from Utah whose apparently overbearing stage dad has been controlling the 17-year-old’s career. His voice is nice, but boring. Does the world really need another easy listening star like Josh Groban? No.

Cook is being portrayed as the show’s rock’n’roll star. Yawn. A goofy haircut isn’t enough to make someone a rockstar, well, unless you’re Pink. This guy is as bland as Archuleta, but he has the sense to pick up a guitar occasionally and at least try to make the little girls think he’s a rebel. Aerosmith cover songs? Ick.
