What’s next for Blake Lewis, you ask?

The American Idol runner up has inked a record deal with Arista. Apparently, they must think he has some marketable talent:

“Blake has a strong music sensibility and knows who he is and what his music should represent,” said Clive Davis, chairman and CEO of BMG Label Group, Arista’s parent. “His collaborators are all knocked out by him.”

I didn’t care for his version of “This is my now”, but maybe he did crappy on that so that he wouldn’t have to have that crap song on his new album.
