Billboard.com:
"American Idol" contestant Chris Daughtry's debut RCA album, released under his last name, ascends to No. 1 in its ninth week on The Billboard 200 by selling 65,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan. His margin over the No. 2 album, Music World's "Dreamgirls" soundtrack, is the slimmest ever between the top two titles on this chart, at about 130 copies.

Do we know where the other version is?

Diana Ross was on Regis and Kelly and said she is going to be on American Idol mentoring a theme night. Not a word was mentioned about "Dreamgirls." Her new CD- I love you- which are covers and the song she sang seemed like a bad one- is out today- it's going to be hard to promote the album and avoid the Dreamgirls mentions. And I doubt she will address it since in her 90's autobiography she called Florence a ballard a drunk and all kind of things- Florence's family was so outraged they went on TV bashing Diana for talking about their mother in such a bad way. Yes, but Florence's sister, who is about to release a book about the ex-Supreme, not only defends Ross, but makes it clear that she isn't in agreement with select disgruntled family members after all that Ross has and continues to do for them financially behind closed doors. Even after the TV fiasco, Ross still contributed to the family and set up trust funds for Flo's daughters contrary to popular belief, but it still wouldn't hurt Ross to be more vocal about the positive side of Flo's legacy in the press after all these years. Thanks- I did not know that. It's very interesting and I will look forward to reading the book.

I hope Beyonce sings "Listen" at the Oscars- she does that really well live and it's a good showcase for her. They really muted the power of the song by throwing her in that dumb booth in the movie with the headphones on.

Jennifer will be singing "Love You I Do" at the Oscars. She said so when she was on Oprah this week. She also sang it on Oprah and it was pretty good actually. She did a great job. It's sweet that Oprah seems to be so into Jennifer. You can tell she is crazy about her, which is nice.

AMPAS has announced the performances on Oscar night (I saw this posted on another site). As expected, Beyonce will perform Listen; Jennifer will perform Love You I Do; and Keith Robinson and Anika will join other cast mates for Patience (I'm not sure if those other cast mates include Beyonce).
Etheridge will perform I Need to Wake Up, and Newman will perform Our Town with James Taylor.

That's what I thought would happen. It makes no sense for Jennifer to sing "AIATY" there.
But guess what? Oscar voting is OVER!! Jennifer either has it now or she doesn't. I think she should go out there and start singing "AIATY" all she wants. I heard that Jennifer Holliday is going to be on the red carpet on E! and she is going to sing "AIATY"- I think that's really tacky but for some reason, I'm not surprised.

I think that medley they did really made people want to go out and buy the album. Beyonce was amazing and she and Jennifer worked SO WELL together on stage singing each other's songs- and Anika was really good too.
