In case you missed it, the “American Idol” auditions in Atlanta took a bizarre but socially conscious turn on Wednesday night when the 62-year-old Vietnam War veteran closed the show with his original song, which encouraged urban youth to buy belts.

Young, in the form of “Late Night” host Jimmy Fallon, offers his take here.

Warning: it’s moving.

Carrie Underwood’s spokeswoman and her hockey beau himself confirmed the engagement after about a year of dating.

“I’m happy to confirm that Carrie Underwood is engaged to Mike Fisher, and the couple couldn’t be happier,” Underwood’s rep told Us magazine. “No wedding date has been set at this time.”

Mike Fisher, a center for the Ottawa Senators, confirmed it himself for the Ottawa Sun, saying, “It’s true. We’re both obviously excited and very happy. I’m not sure exactly when (the wedding will take place).”

Fisher’s friends and teammates were happy for him, and giving him a hard time almost immediately.

“It’s great. It’s a long time coming. There’s going to be a lot of broken hearts here in Ottawa with all those girls that are in love with Mikey,” Senators winger Chris Neil told the Sun. “He’s met an awesome girl. We’re ecstatic for him.”

Underwood, was erroneously reported to have been moving in with Fisher earlier this year, tells Self magazine in next month’s issue that she’d love to have a small family.

“Not that I have a husband to have one with yet, but someday I’d like a family — not a big one, but not a small one either,” she told the magazine. “Two kids is good, three is fine. Four? Somebody’s getting something done, because we ain’t having five!”

This could be the best U.S.-Canadian pairing since Will Arnett and Amy Poehler!

Billboard named Powter’s “Bad Day” as the one-hit wonder of the decade, topping Terror Squad’s “Lean Back” and Crazy Town’s “Butterfly,” among others.

The 38-year-old Vernon, B.C., native had a smash hit with “Bad Day,” which topped the charts all over the place and made him the first solo Canadian male artist to top Billboard’s Hot 100 since Bryan Adams did it in 1995. It was also Billboard’s Single of the Year in 2006.

Billboard describes a one-hit wonder as an act whose second hit did not reach the top 25. For this list, they only included acts from 2000 to 2007, since someone from last year might just be taking a break, according to the AP.

Any fan of “American Idol” is already humming the sad-but-uplifting tune, which was played over the montage each week when singers were voted off during the show’s fifth season.
