LA Times Interviews Megan
The morning after being eliminated, fallen "American Idol" singer Megan Joy still isn't making any apologies: not for herself or her brother.
Instead, after being told by Simon Cowell that she wouldn't be saved no matter how her final song went, Joy appeared to have a grand old time belting out Bob Marley's "Turn Your Lights Down Low" for the last time and making bird noises at the remaining contestants. She talked to Idoltracker this morning about how she got them to "caw" back, her brother's dissing of Kara DioGuardi, how she felt about telling Simon off and her secret passion for Cradle of Filth.
LA: How are you feeling after what happened last night?
Megan: I am tired and very excited to see my son. It’s been a couple of months. Every minute that passes is harder.
LA: You didn’t seem particularly sad. What were you thinking about?
Megan: I just woke up kind of knowing it was my time. I woke up with this feeling that I’d be going. So I decided to just have the best attitude that I could and get excited about what’s going to happen after.
LA: So you were actually looking forward to moving on?
Megan: It’s never fun to get cut from a competition. I was excited to show America that I could belt songs out like the rest of them. I was bummed not to have that chance. But I get to go home to my son, so how am I'm feeling? It’s kind of a tossup.
LA: Did you have a song picked out for next week?
Megan: I did. I was going to sing ‘Separate Lives’ by Phil Collins.
LA: What’s the deal with the bird thing?
Megan: I love birds and I’m just a big dork. I love making animal noises, and sometimes people think I’m funny, and I just decided to make a couple people laugh. The two people that think I’m funny.
LA: Was that an inside joke between you and Allison?
Megan: No, I just make noises all the time. All day yesterday I was like, ‘Guys, I think I’m going home. Please caw for me! Be my bird friends!’ And they were like, ‘Of course we will.’
LA: During the elimination, your brother yelled ‘Broken record!’ to Kara and they squabbled off-camera. What happened there?
Megan: I didn’t get to see it. He told me about it later. I just think it’s hilarious. My brother’s just like me. He is who he is and he represents me. He can’t take it when someone’s tearing me down, so he voiced his opinion. I think he’s hilarious.
LA: Talk to us about telling Simon that you didn’t care what he said.
Megan: I really didn’t mean to upset him. I had no idea that it was going to be like that. I didn’t want people to think I didn’t care about the competition. I just didn’t care that Simon didn’t like my song. I did care about what the judges thought because I wanted to keep progressing, but not personally for myself. If they don’t like what I do, that’s fine, but I’m not going to take it to heart, because I am who I am and I’m not going to change that. I sing how I sing, and if they don’t like it that’s cool. It’s not going to hurt my feelings.
LA: What was your best moment?
Megan: Getting through ‘Walking After Midnight,' because it was a flat-out miracle. It was absolutely insane. I don’t know how that happened. I was positive that I wasn’t going to be able to go on. Dress rehearsal an hour before I didn’t hit a single note, I was crying, I couldn’t sing at all. It was adrenaline. It was like an out-of-body experience. It was like watching myself. I don’t know how to explain it. It was really weird.
LA: We’ve heard that the real Megan Joy is a real serious metal head.
Megan: I can’t say I’m a very serious one, but I truly love it. And I listen to it just as much as I listen to anyone else.
LA: Did you want to let that side loose during ‘Idol’?
Megan: Well, I mean, I love listening to it, but I would never pick that music for myself. I would be featured in a metal song. If someone wanted me to sing a little part, I would. That would be awesome.
LA: What’s your favorite metal band?
Megan: Cradle of Filth.
LA: So you didn’t have in your mind that you wanted to one week do a Cradle of Filth song?
Megan: (Laughs) You know, if only they would have let me … . It could have been sick. Could have been sick!
LA: What’s been the hardest part of being on the show?
Megan: Being away from my baby.
LA: What about the process?
Megan: It was all really stressful, and sometimes I didn’t know if I could take anymore of it, but I don’t think anyone is given anything they can’t handle in life. If you’re thrown something I think you can handle it, and I managed to handle everything that they threw at me.
LA: On elimination nights, you always seemed OK. You seemed maybe less hurt by judges than other contestants.
Megan: I love life, and I just don’t let people bring me down because I don’t have time for it. I don’t think anyone should have time for it. It’s up to us how we let people affect us. I try to take good from everything and be postive and happy.
LA: You seem a much more playful group than in the past. Did you feel like you were a bunch of kids at a slumber party?
Megan: I did! We’re all goofy nerds, all the time.
LA: Who did you bond with?
Megan: I’m close with them all, but Allison is my roomie and I have a soft spot for her. I also have talked with Adam on the phone 3 times since I left, love him. I'll miss Kris, he's funny. I liked everyone!
LA: Do you feel like this year the girls are being persecuted by the voters?
Megan: You know, we’re getting taken down one by one. But the guys are awesome, so I can’t say America is wrong because they’re really all incredible. I get excited for everybody, so when I’m on stage with Adam and every person in the audience is screaming his name, it just makes me happy because I love him and I think it’s great.
LA: How do you feel about this publicity tour you’re about to embark on?
Megan: I’m all about it. Bring it on. Let’s do this. I’m probably not as prepared as I’d like to be, but I wasn’t even prepared to try out for ‘Idol’ in the first place.
LA: How did you come to try out in the first place?
Megan: My family and friends made me. I was like, ‘I’ll never ever make it, this is ridiculous. There is no point, I’m just going to sit there for hours and not even make it past round one.’ My mind is blown. I cannot even believe what happened to me.
LA: What’s next?
Megan: I’d love to make albums and try to write. I’ve never tried to write a song before. I hope that I can. Any doors that open, I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen.
LA: What kind of album would you want to make?
Megan: I don’t know. Something beautiful, maybe a little dark. Something that people can fall in love with, fall asleep to, just beautiful music.
LA: What do you wish people would ask you about but haven't?
Megan: I don’t know. How much I love cartoons? I don’t know. I love all cartoons! I love little kid ones like on Nickelodeon, and I love adults ones like ‘Family Guy’ and ‘The Simpsons’ and ‘South Park.’ I love Pixar and DreamWorks. I love all of them.
LA: What is the first thing you're going to do when you get home?
Megan: I’m going to hug my son for as long as he will let me.
Megan's still making the rounds
Above is Megan making another appearance, this time on Good Day New York! She is making a record number of appearances, considering she was booted so early (BOO). She also is set to appear on Ellen! I will get that video up as soon as I see it!

So Long Megan, Until we Meet again!
STUPIDLY and UNFAIRLY America proved they suck again and my favorite Idol Megan was eliminated on Wednesday. Never mind, she will go strong I'm sure. So in her honor, here are some AWESOME interviews she gave after her controversial exit - and all of her studio performances from each week! I LOVE YOU MEGAN!

Fox Philly interview
Fox This Morning interview
Fox LA
entertainment weekly interview:
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: It seems like you performed the song way more in the judges' faces last night than you did on Tuesday night. Was that a big F.U. to them?
MEGAN JOY: Yeah, I was ready to be right in their faces. They have a habit of talking to each other while we sing. That's so rude.
EW: It looked like you and Allison got really close. Was she your house bestie? Did you talk about being in the bottom three?
MJ: She's my girl. She's been my roommate for a long time. I had the softest spot in my heart for her. I never cared to talk about why I was down there. I always expected it and was prepared. I just wanted her to know that she's incredible and has tons of fans and not to get down on herself in any way.
EW: How was your going away dinner last night?
MJ: I had a blast. It was a really fun night. They all told me what a good person I am and how they think I have the best attitude and spirit. Even Simon came to my dinner.
EW: Not to mention dance moves. What was up with those?
MJ: I can't help it. I don't know why it happens. I would say to people who hate them, ''Too bad. Close your eyes.'' The producers were constantly like, ''Practice in the mirror!'' But I don't like to. I don't want to plan anything. I won't sound the same if I'm focusing on my body. So I never took that advice. Maybe I should have.
EW: At least the judges always seemed to like your looks.
MJ: Yeah, sometimes I was like, come on! I'm not here for that. I'm not used to that though. I'm a jeans and no-makeup kind of girl, so sometimes getting dressed up like that made me feel good.
EW: What's next for you? Do you still want to sing?
MJ: I want to go home and be with my baby and lay low until the tour. And after that I'll figure out what doors will be open to me.
EW:I read on the Idol website that you really want to be on Yo Gabba Gabba. Have they called?
MJ: They have not! But I've met a couple of people who know people that work on the show. So I'm just going to show up there and beg them.
MTV Interview:
# What was with all the “caw- caw” stuff?
“I love birds and bird noises and I just decided if I’m going out, I’m going out with a bang and I’m just gonna be myself. I flew the whole time!”
# So it’s not that you didn’t care about the show?
“I cared about the competition, like, I didn’t want people to misunderstand me not caring, I just didn’t care that Simon didn’t like my song.”
# Was it easier to sing knowing there was no chance of being saved?
“It was for sure easier cuz I didn’t care if I messed up, which I did. I was just stoked to flop around and be right in their faces and sing it, sing it right at ‘em.”
# No one's ever done that. I love it!
"Thanks. I loved it too. It was fun!"
# Are you proud of you brother talking back to Kara on Tuesday night calling her a broken record?
“I’m always proud of my brother. He’s my boy and he’s like me, he just can’t help but be himself and I wasn’t surprised at all that he did it. It cracked me up. I was glad that Kara ended up taking it lightheartedly, though (laughs).”
# Will you be getting a new tattoo?
“I definitely am. I have a lucky ring that I’ve worn the entire time and I’m gonna have that tattooed on my ribs."
# What will she do when you see your son (probably on Wednesday)?
“I’m gonna hold him for as long as he’ll let me and I’m gonna try not to sob like a lunatic cuz, I’m sure he’ll just be confused and scared. It’s gonna be beautiful, I cannot wait.”
# We loved you here, and were sure you'll get a contract. What would you be interested in doing along with music?
“I would love, like, I love cartoons. I like doing voices, I love Pixar. There’s a couple shows like I wanna make an appearance on. I’m down for whatever. Whatever life wants to introduce me to, I would love to dabble.”
# What were you planning to sing next week?
“I was gonna sing “Separate Lives” by Phil Collins because it’s beautiful and I was ready to show a softer side like they kept telling me. Oh well. I'll sing it to my son, and it will be better like that I'm sure.

American Idol PORN
American Idol now has its second run-in with the porn industry this season alone. First it was the number for the 13th contestant (which was alexis on the first week) which had to be changed from 13 to 36, because the number containing 13 at the end was a phone sex line. And now, my little Megan, has a link to porn as well. No its not what you think!! Dirty minds! (you wish) Megan, used to go by Megan Corkrey when the competition began, but that was her husbands name, and since they are now divorced, she chose to drop that and go back to her maiden name for the top 12. Megan Joy. Unfortunately there is a porn star by the name of Megan Joy who is currently starring in Desperate Housewhores 6. No lie.
