Taylor Hicks had his Soul Patrol. And, of course, Clay Aiken had Claymates.
It's time for Anoop followers to form a nation. But what to call them? (Dawg Pound is not an option.)
We asked our guest bloggers, who, well, did the best they could! (We welcome your suggestions.)
Lenni Gustafson: I have five thoughts for Anoop's "nation name". And they are, in no particular order, The Ballad Battalion, The Tune Force, The Crooning Congregation, The Anoop Troupe and last, but not least Anoopies Agroupies. I know that last one is probably just two cutesy, but I couldn't resist.
Aaron Peck: How about the Anoop Troop? Anyone else come up with that one? Not sure it rolls off the tongue very well, but it rhymes. I figure that's a plus.
Chloe Paterson: I'm really not creative with this kind of thing at all... I came up with Anoo'malies
Hopefully people will think it's the good kind of anomaly - he surprises everyone with great performances!
Claire Meyerhoff: I hereby dub the Anoop fans..."We Sigh for Desai." Is it so bad it's good? No. It's so bad it's laughable!
Assistant Features Editor Adrienne Johnson Martin would like to have her life turned into an animated cartoon.

Also, Anoop's fansite did a whole collection of Anoopism's - we came up with Anoopr's, Anooper Troopers, Anoopette's (female Anoopr's), Anoopies (think Groupies) and many more. Here's the post if you're interested. http://tinyurl.com/dhypjy

Wed, 03/25/2009 - 02:39 — IrinaWhat do you mean HAD Claymates? We're still here!
For Anoop's nation I suggest "De Sigh Kicks" or an offshoot of the Clefhangers could be the clef palates? Just kidding :)
OK, fellow guest bloggers.
Tue, 03/24/2009 - 18:25 — RacquetOK, fellow guest bloggers. I think we all came up with really good stuff. Aaron, you and I are on the same track, with me adding a "u" and "e" to the troop. Chloe, you rock. And yes, he does surprise. Claire, heavy breathing, as in sighing, is always a good thing. Keep on rhymin' friend.
