WE LOVE YOU, BROOKE!
I’ve said it here before, but it deserves a repeat – I have honestly never been more proud to be part of a fanbase. I’ve watched Idol from the beginning, and Brooke’s Bandwagon have been some of the most incredible people I’ve ever known online. Everyone is just so sweet, so positive, and so caring. These last few weeks have been tough for all of us, but we stood our ground and I really hope we’ve done Brooke proud. I’d like to extend a huge thank you to all the people who have come to this site. You guys are incredible, all of you.
Brooke, I’m going to try not to be too sappy, but it’s pretty safe to say that you’ve touched all of our lives, and you’ve certainly changed ours at brookefans.org. Every week you poured your heart and soul out and we were all so privileged to have seen you progress as a performer and artist. Not only have you gifted us with your music and your voice, but because of you, some of us have made some incredible friendships. Thank you so much – and please, don’t feel down! We’re all sorry we weren’t able to get you to the top, but we promise that we’ll support you as you continue your career. We’re so proud of everything you’ve done. God bless you, Brooke!
I hope everyone likes the new layout I just put up – it’s a summation of Brooke’s journey on Idol. :)
I fully intend on keeping this site alive, hopefully for as long as Brooke continues to make music. Remember Bandwagoners – keep your heads up! We got her to the Top 5, let’s get her to the top of the charts!
- Kaitlyn, Steph, Denni and Jenn
Update! She got the flowers!
I’d like to share the great news that Brooke received the hundreds of flowers that were sent to her on Monday! Here is a note that was posted of the official Idol boards:
Dearest Bandwagon Friends!
I want you all to know, just how much your generous gift truly brightened my day, my week, and my performance! I truly needed that boost, and the unbelievably beautiful bouquets and stunning rose garden… when I walked into the room at CBS and saw them I couldn’t get over how amazing they were, and couldn’t believe they were actually for me!Last night, all I could think about was wanting to give the best performance I had for the people, for the fans, and for everyone that had given me their support, encouragement and kindness! I just felt so grateful, so happy and it felt good to be able to smile through it all… even when Simon said that I’m a believer was a “nightmare”…LOL. Please know, you must KNOW how much your love and support means to me… I just think y’all are the greatest and no matter what happens, I hope I get to make music for you for a long time, and that we get to connect and find joy through the songs that make us “Feel”. That totally sounds cheesy, but I’m being
serious!Have the most beautiful day in world!
Love,
Brooke

Carly Simon Likes Brooke!!!! I haaaaaad to post this! This is incredible news, and I’m so happy that one of the people Brooke admires most admires her just as much:
Carly Simon: Nobody does it better than Brooke White on “American Idol”
Carly Simon has more than a passing interest in this season’s “American Idol” and leaves no mystery about who’s her favorite remaining finalist — Brooke White.
Simon was tipped to turn on the television at her home in Martha’s Vineyard, Mass., the night White won over the judges by performing her hit song “You’re So Vain” during 1970s theme week.
“I thought, ‘Oh my God, this girl is so talented and she sings the song so much better than I ever did or ever could,’” said Simon, interviewed during a rehearsal break with her band at a Manhattan studio. “I was so flattered that she chose the song and … more than impressed. I think she should win.“
