@AstronomicalKid gets a deal

[via]
"Former “X Factor” contestant Astro, who locked horns with show creator Simon Cowell, has inked a record deal with Epic, the Daily News has learned.  “It’s amazing. It feels great,” the 15-year-old Brooklyn rap phenom said.  “It’s like a dream. . . . I can finally say I’m working on my album.”  It’s no coincidence that the chairman and CEO of Epic Records is L.A. Reid, one of the judges on the show. Reid served as Astro’s mentor on the show.  Astro, whose real name is Brian Bradley, made it to the top 10 of the popular Fox television talent show — and not without clashing with Cowell.  Astro, who was among the final seven contestants, drew flak for his cocky attitude.  He even refused to perform when he was on the verge of being voted off the show, and talked back to Cowell while shedding some tears.  He would later apologize.  Despite his actions, the rapper’s popularity continued to soar. He now has nearly 200,000 followers on Twitter.  "I owe it to all my fans," said Astro."[via]

From BHGP.com: [Memo dictated by Tad Shamarharhar, Assistant Athletic Director for Color Coordination, Wave Production and Rhythmic Chanting, for general release] "The Penn State game was a great success. I don't think anyone thought we could get the Kinnick crowd to pull off the stripe effect, but we did it. Note to self: if I ever realize my lifelong dream of pulling off a coup d'etat in this country, remember that the Iowans follow directions well. Very well. Don't write that last part down. It was an impressive effort, but I think we have just touched the tip of the iceberg in terms of fan color coordination. We can, nay, we must go farther. Here are the color coordination instructions I have prepared for the Wisconsin game: If you are sitting in section 122, row 45, seats 1-15, you should wear navy If you are sitting in section 122, row 45, seats 16-25, you should wear royal blue If you are sitting in section 122, row 45, seats 26-40, you should wea...
