The Lost Diana DeGarmo Interview

I was sick, so, as promised, here's what you were missin'! Fox's American Idol runner-up Diana DeGarmo on ... Diana DeGarmo!

Q: So, how have you been?
A: A little busy, but you know it's been fun. I got three days off for my birthday, then turned around and went to New York, then Los Angeles.

Q: How's life been for you since the show aired?
A: It's been a lot of fun. Been interesting.

Q: How's the album coming? Who are you working with?
A: The whole album isn't done by the same producer. It's really interesting to see how each person works. I'm working with David Foster. He's amazing. I do a song that he and his wife have written together. I worked with Desomnd Child, a whole lot of amazing writers and producers.

Q: Since Idol do you think you've changed how you've performed?
A: My way of performing really hasn't changed too much. It got me in the top 12. At first it was intimidating. I wasn't sure what to do. But, oh, well, who cares. And I've been doing it ever since. Go out there and act out. Have a blast. Make sure everybody has a good time.

Q: So how's tour life?
A: The tour has actually been really great. Every city has been surprisingly amazing. They really have welcomed us in our home towns.

Q: What's it like being a star?
A: I haven't signed so many autographs in my entire life. I was in a restroom and a woman said, "I heard your voice and I knew it was you. Can you sign my napkin? Would you sign this for me." It's s funny. I can't go to the grocery store in my pajamas anymore but that's OK.
