I think it was What's Hot in 2004. I know they mentioned Ruben opened up a Music Center for the kids in Alabama.
Here is the article: Who's "Next"? Meet sixteen celebrities from the worlds of music, movies and television who are on the verge of a stellar 2004... NAME Ruben Studdard AGE 25 HOMETOWN Birmingham, Ala. WHY HIM? Because he's America's Idol, that's why! After catapulting to fame on AI 2, the velvet teddy bear is ready to conquer the world with his R&B CD, Soulful. "I'm happy that I took my time," says Ruben. "I didn't want to come out of the box with a weak album!" WHAT'S NEXT? A tour kicks off this spring, and he's started his own label, Real Music Records. "Man, I'm excited!" he says. "I want to be a music mogul, like Sean Combs." SCHOOL'S COOL He recently founded the Alabama-based Ruben Studdard Foundation for the Advancement of Children in Music, which will fund music programs for and donate instruments to Birmingham city schools. IT'S HOT IN HERE Ruben likes to serve it up: "I make the best pasta," he says. "I'm even thinking about putting out a cookbook." When he's not causing friends to rub their full bellies, he's getting them to bust a gut. "I like to make people laugh. I used to get in trouble in school because I'd finish my work and then talk to [my classmates] and get them in trouble." Oh, Ruuuuuuu! --Doreen Arriaga __________________

I saw Ruben on Letterman (that I never watch) for the 5 minutes he was on. I was disappointed b/c I was expecting Ruben to sit down with Letterman and discuss his CD, being Grammy-nominated, etc. I also saw Ruben's video for Sorry 2004. It was too cute, and Ruben was looking good as always!

Ruben was just on Ellen's talk show and guess who is singing back-up for him? Ricky Smith!!!! Hercules himself!! I was so excited [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] I think Ricki deserves to be lead singer, but that's so sweet Ruben has him as a back-up for now.
Ruben was very adorable on Ellen. He told Ellen he was happy to be on her show. She 'had it goin' on!' Ellen said the first time she heard Ruben perform, he reminded her of Luther Vandross. She talked to him about his Grammy nomination and being up against Luther, singing one of his songs [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] At the end, she told the audience you can buy a copy of Ruben's album on the Ellen website and Ruben says "Buy it! Don't burn it!" [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] He is just the cutest thing. He also made a shout out to Ricki and mentioned he was singing with him. He talked about how he and Clay are good friends and that Clay was selling a lot of records. He gave thumbs-up on that, with the cutest smile.

I had tickets to Ruben's concert last week. And then I came down with the flu. I was so depressed. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
I know he'll come around again but it felt like the worst luck ever. __________________
