Poll of the week: Diana favorite Broadway star

Diana DeGarmo emerged victorious in last week's poll of the week out of an assortment of Idol alums that have transitioned to the great white way. The Hairspray star took home 27 votes, good for 42% of the poll's 63 total votes. The next closest competitor was Clay Aiken, whose coming out of the closet this past week did not do much to bolster his standing in the poll. Clay, who will be returning to Spamalot, amassed 10 votes, or 15%.

The next two alums that received the most votes were LaKisha Jones (The Color Purple) and Ace Young (Grease), who got 5 votes (7%) and 4 votes (6%), respectively. The remaining alums barely registered on the poll, with Josh Strickland failing to take in a single vote.

In this week's poll of the week, IDOL LIVE begins the debut album champion poll series, beginning with Season 1. Only post-Idol albums will be included unless pre-Idol albums were also released following the alum's time on the show (ex. Brooke White).

Clay Aiken (Spamalot) 10 (15%)
Frenchie Davis (Rent) 1 (1%)
Diana DeGarmo (Hairspray) 27 (42%)
Fantasia (The Color Purple) 3 (4%)
Anthony Federov (The Fantasticks) 3 (4%)
Tamyra Gray (Rent) 4 (6%)
LaKisha Jones (The Color Purple) 5 (7%)
Taylor Hicks (Grease) 5 (7%)
Constantine Maroulis (The Wedding Singer) 1 (1%)
Josh Strickland (Tarzan) 0 (0%)
Ace Young (Grease) 4 (6%)

Total votes: 63

Not much of a poll with only 63 votes.
