American Idol debuted last night to its usual stellar ratings. It’s hard to believe it’s been nine seasons since Kelly Clarkson was crowned the first winner—or just how many stars the show has created. Mediabase has released a tally of Idols past and present, ranking their radio play, and according to the list, Kelly is still light years ahead of her successors. Did your favorite make the top ten?
1. Kelly Clarkson (season one winner), 3,786,731
2. Daughtry (season four finalist), 2,012,389
3. Carrie Underwood (season four winner), 1,675,041
4. Jordin Sparks (season six winner), 1,042,670
5. Fantasia (season three winner), 604,006
6. Josh Gracin (season two finalist), 479,204
7. David Cook (season seven winner), 464,435
8. Ruben Studdard (season two winner), 346,366
9. Elliott Yamin (season five finalist), 340,339
10. Jennifer Hudson (season three finalist), 296,150

I think that Kelly is the most diversified of all the idols. Yes, the idols mentioned are all very talented, but Kelly tops them all!!!! She’s a great artist, songwriter (DNM), awesome singer.

Josh Gracin gets played more than David Cook? Really? That seems wrong.
