Kellie Pickler has advice for new Idol contestants - VIDEO

Kellie Pickler gained infamy for her dim-witted charm on Season 5 of American Idol, and has since gone on to some success in the country music field. She had a memorable return to the show that launched her career last year, facing off against Ryan Seacrest who wondered if she'd picked up a new pair of ... oh, anything with the money she'd made since leaving the show.

Now, she's offering sage advice through People magazine, to this year's crop of Idol-wannabes. I'm sorry, but there's plenty of people I'd gladly take advice from, but "Pick Pickler" is hardly one of them. I still can't decide if the bumpkin idiocy is a farce, in which case she's brilliant, or real. If it's real then ... wow!

Pickler's words of wisdom are pretty much the same that anyone would give about celebrity or success. Hell, lottery winners go through the same problems she mentions. "It's not necessarily you that changes but it's the people around you that change," she says. "No one that I was close with before am I even remotely close to now. I have maybe three people in my life now that have been amazing through the whole process."

But her most deep and profound revelation? "Stay away from mean people!" You tell 'em Kellie! Stay away from those mean people ... like Simon. Wait, that won't work.

To relive one of Kellie's more recent moments of genius, and why you should have her guiding the path you take in life, here she is on FOX's Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?.

Rise of the South

RALEIGH, N.C. - As its third season draws to a close, “American Idol” has taken on a distinctly Southern-fried flavor. When North Carolina’s Fantasia Barrino and Georgia’s Diana DeGarmo perform Tuesday and Wednesday in the TV talent show’s season finale, they’ll be following footsteps that have most often walked south of the Mason-Dixon line. Past winners of the Fox contest include Kelly Clarkson of Texas and Alabama’s Ruben Studdard. Last year’s runner-up, Clay Aiken, is from North Carolina. Even season one’s second-place finisher, Justin Guarini of Pennsylvania, actually grew up in Georgia. “I think it’s an honest realism,” said Latimer Alexander, mayor pro tem of Barrino’s hometown of High Point. “Their character seems to come forward. People are drawn to others who are real...You can say that’s a Southern trait.” Jerry Oberholtzer, mayor of DeGarmo’s hometown of Snellville, Ga., was born in Allentown, Pa., raised in New Jersey, and has lived in the South for 23 years. He also belie...
