INSPIRATIONAL IDOL WORSHIP
Hawai'i's Jasmine Trias, who placed third in the third season of "American Idol," is among contestants who share inspirational vignettes in "Chicken Soup for the American Idol Soul." (It was bound to happen!) The book collects memories from Carrie Underwood, Ruben Studdard, Clay Aiken and more.
Trias began singing because "I enjoyed the praise," she writes. But upon learning that a grandma awoke from her coma, believing she'd heard an angel, upon hearing Trias sing on "Idol," Trias knew it was also her destiny to "touch people's lives."

FINAL WORD
"I love playing characters who have big hearts and really believe in something. I've been in a lot of smaller films that weren't appropriate for my niece and nephew. I needed a movie ... to bring them to."
