Last night Scotty McCreery was named the newest American Idol in the finale of the 10th season of American Idol. From the reaction of the runnerup Lauren Alaina, there's gossip going on that those two have a 'thang' for each other. When he was announced as the winner, they immediately hugged, kissed (on the lips!) and he thanked the crowd by hugging just about everyone at Nokia Auditorium in L.A., then returned to the stage, where Lauren kissed him on the cheek about 8 times! Me thinks she's smitten with him. And he too, with her. When Ryan Seacrest

asked him how he felt, Scotty thanked God, first of all, for getting him there, then talked about how he and Lauren had started this journey together and will continue to be together. I think he REALLY meant that. And if they do have a crush on each other, so what? They are 16 and 17 and have a RIGHT to have one! So tell me, what do you think? Do you think they're 'sweet' on each other? By the way, if you missed the finale, it was super. Even two of the judges performed! Check out Steven Tyler.
