Jason Castro: I Now Officially Love You

This season of "American Idol" is proving to be a bitch. Not for the contestants who seem to be consistently good(ish), but for me, as I try to choose one – ugh, just one! – to become the next Kelly Clarkson (and, I hope, not the next Taylor Hicks). Could it be (super-duper) emotional folkie Brooke White? Or cutie balladeer David Archuleta? Or – now especially – how about Jason Castro, who's done pretty good until his wowing, falsetto-peppered number (like, I aw-ed myself to sleep ) last night with one of the gayest songs in music history, "Over the Rainbow." He's innocent (we think?), could light up a room with his smile, and, even with his inspirational-night song choice, probably isn't gay. Why? 'Cause this totally isn't how Judy did it. Watch, and give me hope that there's a quarter-ounce of queer in him.
