Where do you see the Top 12 in three years ?

[Kyle]

I dare to open my first own thread.

Where do you see the Top 12 performers ( or one of them ) in three years.
What do you think they will be doing ?
Feel free to speculate.

I think Clay and Ruben will definitely get recording contracts regardless of who wins this season. For some reason, I see Ruben more as a recording artist and Clay more as a Broadway-type singer. I wouldn't be surprised if Trenyce and Kim C got recording contracts as well, but that's about it, IMHO.

I see Carmen studying hard for her finals in her sophomore year of college, working at McDonalds. LOL.

I see Clay as not having any radio hits, but still popular with a solid recording contract. I see Ruben as also having a recording contract.

I actually believe all of them deserve contracts. They truly really are undiscovered talent, so this show would be appropriate to call it "American Idols". I don't know if recording a single with Burt counts, but ya know...

I think Clay Ruben and possibly Rickey could make it big.I think Kim C will never give up trying to be famous so I think she will be around for a while since her determination will get her noticed.

[Amandra Lynn]

I think Clay and Ruben will get contracts, as well as Tryence, and Kim C. As was already mentioned Clay would be a good on broadway.

[TheFlying]

I could definitely see most of them getting contracts, including:

Charles (rumored to have one already)
Julia
Kim Caldwell (her determination alone will get her noticed)
Ruben (will get a contract by 19 Entertainment no matter who wins)
Clay obviously
Trenyce
Vanessa

[Big Mike]

I could see Ruben or Rickey joining a band on the come up or pursuing solo careers

Corey will be entering the world's strongest man contest after wokring out for 20 hours a day in jail

Clay will most likely be successful and be doing things other than singing

Kim C could be an MTV VJ or a talk show host

I could see Trenyce coming out with an album

Josh will be probably be unheard of afterward, same with Carmen and Kim L

[lobeck]

I could also see Vanessa on Broadway in the future...

[greenie]

I think Ruben will get one although I think it will be interesting to see how succesful he'll be.

I agree that Clay definitely could be successful on Broadway, but I think he could make it in the pop culture too, though not pop like a boy band.

I think Kim C. could become popular like Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera since I think she will wear anything to get noticed.
