Movers & Shakers: "American Idol" finalist Sanjaya Malakar
March 27, 2007

Our top mover of the week is Miss USA who has gained 1900%. The current Miss USA is Miss Tennessee, 21-year-old Rachel Smith. Among Miss USA's prizes is an apartment at Trump Tower in New York City, which comes with the unfortunate drawback of having to deal with Donald Trump on a regular basis.

"American Idol" finalist Sanjaya Malakar increased 268%. Sanjaya has been a hot topic of discussion lately for being so very, very bad. I mean it. He is terrible. Atrocious, even. His version of "Waiting on the World to Change" actually made me appreciate John Mayer, which is something that I did not believe could be accomplished. Sanjaya has both passionate followers and detractors. The users of the website "Vote for the Worst" have made it their personal goals in life to keep Sanjaya on the show, while Howard Stern has urged his listeners to vote for Sanjaya so often that he becomes the winner of "American Idol." Meanwhile, other "Idol" fans have declared a hunger strike until Sanjaya is voted off of "American Idol." (Personally, I would just like to know what type of conditioner he uses. If only my hair were so shiny...)

The best thing to ever come out of "American Idol," Kelly Clarkson gained 137% this week. I want her to be my best friend.

"The Office's" Dwight, Rainn Wilson, gained 200% this week. Wilson is leveraging his television career into roles in movies like "My Super Ex-Girlfriend," and "The Last Mimzy," which opened on Friday.

1. Miss USA Up 1,900%
2. FIFA Up 1,400%
