Sarah Heath Palin (born February 11, 1964) is the current Governor of Alaska, and the Republican vice presidential candidate for the November 2008 election.[1]

Brought to statewide attention because of her whistleblowing on ethical violations by state Republican Party leaders,[2] she won election in 2006 by first defeating the incumbent governor in the Republican primary, then a former Democratic Alaskan governor in the general election.

On August 29, media sources confirmed that Palin was the running mate for Senator McCain.

Another Great Gig for Jennifer Hudson

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

How many ‘American Idol’ contestants have won an Oscar? One — Jennifer Hudson. How many ‘Idol’ hopefuls have sang the national anthem at an election year convention? Soon to be one — Jennifer Hudson.

Hudson’s reps tell PEOPLE that the Academy Award-winning ‘Dreamgirls’ standout who was booted off of ‘Idol’ will sing the ‘Star Spangled Banner’ on Thursday evening at the Democratic convention — the same night Barack Obama speaks and officially accepts his party’s nomination. “His reps called and said we’d love for you to sing the anthem on Thursday. She’s thrilled and excited. It’s a tremendous honor,” Hudson rep told PEOPLE.

American Idol’ adds DioGuardi as fourth judge

Grammy-nominated songwriter Kara DioGuardi will sit alongside Cowell, Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson when the eighth season of “American Idol” premieres in January, the Fox network said Monday.

“For the past seven seasons, Paula has had to endure the experience of being the only woman at the judges’ table,” said Mike Darnell, president, alternative programming of Fox, in a statement.

“With Kara by her side, Paula has some backup and now there is going to be a lot more `girl power’ on the show,” Darnell said.

DioGuardio’s songs have been recorded by Kelly Clarkson, Christina Aguilera, Gwen Stefani, Celine Dion, Faith Hill, Carrie Underwood and Pink, among others.

“We are turning the heat up on `Idol’ this year and are thrilled to welcome Kara to the judges’ table,” said creator and executive producer Simon Fuller in a statement. “She is a smart, sassy lady, and one of America’s most successful songwriters. We know she will bring a new level of energy and excitement to the show.”

Executive producer Cecile Frot-Coutaz said a fourth judge isn’t a new idea.

“We had originally intended for `American Idol’ to have four judges,” she said. “We’ve seen from our international series that having a fourth judge creates a dynamic that benefits both the contestants and the viewers.”
