Dalton Ross is an editor-at-large at EW and swears there are better pictures of him out there...somewhere.
You haven't lived until you've heard Matthew Rodgers sing ''(Sittin' on) the Dock of the Bay.'' And then you may just want to die. American Idol Season 3: Greatest Soul Classics is a cash-in collection of all 12 ''American Idol'' finalists struggling through painful, emotion-free renditions of old soul hits. Even the best crooners of the club (hello, La Toya London!) are sabotaged, thanks to generic, passionless backup arrangements. Throw a little Leah Labelle on top of it, and you're truly in a world of hurt.
