kady_danny.JPGIf you think we have seen the last of Danny Noriega, think again.  The saucy teen says he plans to be back at "American Idol" each and every week.  I personally enjoyed him but for those who didn't - fortunately it won't be as a singer.  It will come courtesy of Danny's close friendship with top twelve contestant, Ramiele Malubay who he befriended towards the end of Hollywood week.
 
"Yeah she is my little mini me," Danny told me.
 
When I spoke to Danny on Friday, a day after getting voted off the show, he assured me he and Ramiele are attached at the hip and plan to stay that way.
 
"They get a certain amount of tickets and she is giving me a ticket for every week she performs. So, I will see her every week," he revealed.
 
Of course he'll have to fit this in all while he looks for his next big gig. Unlike most rejected "Idols" who plan to continue with their music, Danny says he has a different plan.
 
"I definitely want to look into the whole hosting gigs," Danny added. "I think it would be cool to be on MTV or something or VH-1."

"I'm going to keep singing for sure and hopefully I will have an album out this time next year," Kady said.
 
Nineteen-year-old Asia'h Epperson is thinking big, like Beyonce big. She says she wants to do everything.
 
"I mean really the sky is the limit for me. Probably some acting, some commercials," Asia'h said. "I love fashion maybe a fashion line. Everything. Broadway!"
 
As for Luke Menard, he says he has no plans to go back to his dad's carpet cleaning business anytime soon.
 
"I will always be there to help him out if I have time, but I would like to get into television acting, maybe record an album and possibly some Broadway. I do have a Honda Gold Wing. So, I would like to endorse Honda if I had the chance," Luke said.
 
If history holds any water here, these four will have their work cut out for them.  Can anyone tell me what the past seasons kids who made it into the Top 24 on are doing now?

we'll never hear from these people again on this big a stage. noriega will only be seen on some local fox affiliate giving his commentary to a stilted local tv anchor that can't wait to get a better gig in a bigger city. just my two cents....
