Even though Michael Johns was just voted off of American Idol, he still has tons of fans!  He was mobbed by people wanting autographs and pictures as he left the Regis and Kelly Show yesterday.

It just goes to show, you don’t necessarily have to win American Idol to become a star.  In fact, we all know that some of the most successful idols have been those who didn’t take home the big prize.  Just think of Kimberly Locke, Blake Lewis, and Katharine McPhee.  I mean, even William Hung who didn’t make it past the first round, got more exposure than many struggling artists will see in a lifetime.  Sad, but true.
