Philippine Idol Fansites abound
May 4th
Now that the first Philippine Idol will be done here in the country, a lot of fan sites have emerged. While the official website of Pinoy Idol can be found at www.philippineidol.com, another chatroom site for fans can also be found at www.philippine-idol.com.
I am sure heads will roll as lawsuits will be thrown left and right to those domain owners which banked on the Philippine Idol brand.
A side note though, will they use the same sountrack and theme song for this one as well?
