First photos from the Black and White Ball...

As of this post, there are no shots of any ex-Idols other than Chris Daughtry (who looks great in semi-formal gear and a guitar) on the page, but Robin Leach's Luxe Life blog promises "more photos, plus our full interview with Paula later, so stay tuned to Luxe Life for the full coverage as we walk every step of the way with Paula on her 'dream come true' night." Sounds like they'll be following this closely...and so will we. Bookmark that page (and this one) and stay tuned.

ETA: Gala photos are up at Wire Image--as of this edit, Bucky isn't pictured, but many Idol favorites are. (And Paula looks gorgeous!) Keep watching--more photos will almost certainly turn up as the day goes on.

Two more links to treasure today--Kathy's excellent Team Covington blog (she's had beautiful coverage of the Black and White ball from the start) , and the always awesome comments thread at MJ's Big Blog, where Lisa B.'s helpful news posts are a fun first-look every morning. Also, a chart update: Bucky's "A Different World" did an upward bounce to Number 45 on the a.m. Mediabase charts. Requesting is a beautiful thing! Full post coming soon--Winnie

  2. Anthony is a cutie! :D But yes, I am wondering why no photos of Bucky yet...hoping the airline didn't mess up his plans again. Hmmm!

  7. Thanks! I really liked that hat photo from the "Encores" cover and I'll miss it, but time marches on...

    Hope we'll get some more word about the Ball soon!

  8. Hi, Anon--that 45 does look great, doesn't it? I think a lot of stations must have hopped on board this weekend. Off to check and see which cities got lucky...

    "Buckymania! said...but time marches on..."

    Aww...are you mourning the lack of a cowboy hat on Bucky these days? :( Poor Buckymania lady!

  11. Hi Bunny, and thanks! That's a great shot of Bucky and I really am looking forward to seeing the rest!

    (Anon, hi! Yes, I will admit that I miss the hat a lot--like Paula said, he wears it well. But time really does move on, and hat or no hat, the future's looking good. Can't wait for that CD...)

    A perfect example of how NOT to respond to the media (as our Winnie has taught us)can be found in the comments on the Robin Leach site. The Taylor/Daughtry fans are at it still. I wrote a comment to please post some pictures of Bucky Covington but also complimented RL(Robin Leach) and Paula..notice RL's comment.

  13. I loved your comment at Robin Leach's blog--hope he does have some photos of Bucky for us. Paula does look gorgeous--can we hire her stylist in March? :)

    And you know, the guys of Season 5 all have so much to be proud of! Not only that, but they seem to truly respect and admire each other. The bonding between them was one of the main reasons last season was so incredibly magical.

    At the risk of sounding like a pageant contestant, I hope that eventually all the fans will feel that mutual-respect vibe, too. Taylor, Bucky, Chris, Ace and Elliott all deserve a huge round of applause.

    Not to be contrary, but are we sure Bucky was there? I mean there are pictures of everyone else, but Bucky. I would imagine there would be at least 1 picture if he was there, right?

  16. Bunny, I agree--Simon looks like he's there to fix the lights or help set up the stage set! :)

    And Buckyfaninmi, we are all wondering about that right along with you! As recently as Friday, he mentioned that he was headed there--could have been a last minute change of plans. Still no word, but hopefully we'll hear some news soon.
