"American Idol" ran nearly nine minutes long Tuesday, preventing potentially millions of viewers who rely on their DVRs from seeing the performance of Adam Lambert -- which, in turn, affected the number of viewer votes Lambert received.Luckily for Fox, Lambert, one of this season's most popular Idolettes, was not given the old heave-ho the next night; it was Scott MacIntyre instead who had received the fewest votes from viewers Tuesday night and was removed from the competition at the end of last night's results-and-product-plugging show.
Neither host Ryan Seacrest nor any of the "Idol" judges in any way acknowledged the show's potentially serious blunder. However, when the results show finally got down to it, Lambert was the very first Idolette Seacrest dealt with, and the host noted that the previous night Simon Cowell had had to speak for all the judges (because, of course, there had been no time for the other judges to critique Lambert's performance).
But Seacrest didn't ask Lambert how he felt about being handled differently from all the other competitors during Tuesday's show. Rather, he was asked how he felt about having received a standing ovation from Cowell.

With summer on the horizon, millions of women have their sights on shedding bulky sweaters for swimsuits. Yet, award-winning swimmer and mom Dara Torres, 41, knows there's more to fitness than simply looking good in her swimsuit. She's championing the importance of nutrient-packed lowfat milk to help fuel her fitness routine. Dara Torres is the newest face to don a milk mustache in the popular "got milk?" campaign - joining the ranks of more than 250 actors, athletes, models and musicians who have lent their upper lips in support of milk.
However, Torres is the first female athlete to tout milk's unique contributions to fitness for women. Debuting April 9, her ad reads: Dara Torres. I'm a natural in water. But after a workout, my natural choice is milk. It's a strong starting block for wellness. The protein helps build muscle, plus its nutrients help me refuel. Three glasses of lowfat or fat free milk a day. Lap it up. Dara Torres is helping to launch a new initiative to educate women about the valuable contributions milk makes to exercise recovery and fitness. Milk contains a unique mix of nutrients that helps muscles refuel after exercise. Additionally, the high-quality protein in milk helps build and maintain muscle mass and the calcium and vitamin D in milk helps keep bones sturdy and strong. Women tend to lose muscle mass and bone density as they age. Daily exercise, along with adequate amounts of protein, calcium and vitamin D, can help.More Sexy Picturs of Dara Torres>>
Sienna Miller has learned the hard way to choose her words wisely. While on location filming "The Mysteries of Pittsburgh," the Brit seemingly dissed the Steel City, calling it "S—sburgh" to a reporter. "It was a stupid joke because it rhymes. In the hands of a responsible journalist, humor and sarcasm will be translated appropriately," Sienna Miller told us with a smirk at the film's Cinema Society/Links of London screening.
"It was not meant as disrespectful in any way. In England, we have great rhyming slang, and everyone spends their day rhyming. But for all the trouble that comment caused, there were many people who were supportive." Co-star Peter Sarsgaard, for one, hotly defended the beauty. "If I said that, no one would've cared. But a pretty British girl says it, and everyone is ready to pounce," he said. "I've said crap like that. I'm from St. Louis.
You know what I've said about St. Louis?!" Nope. Care to share? "Nooo! All wonderful things," he laughed. "You can like a place and dis it at the same time. Take NYC. There's garbage in the streets. What other city does that?"
