The Justin Files, 4/22/08


Jordin Update
I have an official update on the extent of the vocal cord injury that Jordin Sparks is suffering from. A spokesperson for 19/Jive Records, the American Idol's record label, said that she, "is on vocal rest and is expected to make a full and complete recovery. . . she's going through the normal course of learning how to manage and care for her voice".

Obviously it's good news that they're talking about her making a full recovery but, at the same time, it seems to me that they're trying to diminish the seriousness of the issue by suggesting than an injury such as this is all in "the normal course" of things.


First films of families of the famous
A pair of teens with famous families are getting ready to make their film debuts.

Connor Cruise, Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman's 13 year old son will be appearing as a young Will Smith in The Fresh Prince's next movie.

Lindsay Lohan's 14 year old little sister, Ali, will be in her first movie when she appears in the upcoming teen flick Mostly Ghostly.


She does it all

Miley Cyrus sings, acts, and dances...now she's apparently getting ready to become an author as well. Disney announced that she's working on a book to share her "inspiring" story. It'll start with her roots in Tennessee and follow her all the way up to her current status as a teen superstar. We can expect the volume next Spring.



Quick Hits
* Dancing with the Stars last night, Kristi finally scored that elusive perfect 30. Marlee might be in trouble, she had the lowest grade of the night, scoring only 21 points.

* Simon likes to say that contestants sound like they're singing showtunes on American Idol, but that won't be an insult tonight. The remaining six hopefuls will be singing the songs of Andrew Lloyd Webber.
