'Idol' finalist Casey James: 'I'm happy with where I landed'


American Idol contestant Casey James initially charmed judge Kara DioGuardi with his looks — and then charmed America with his musicianship and mellow talent, which carried him all the way to the top three. USA TODAY caught up with James, 27, in a conference call Friday with the media.
Q: After you got the results, Kara told you to stick to your demographic — young girls and women. Were you offended by that, and do you think you're a bit more well-rounded as an artist?
A: I would like to hope so. But I definitely am not offended. That's her opinion. I know nothing of demographics, and my marketing skills are obviously poor — I wouldn't have been doing the same bar gigs for 11 years (if they weren't). But I'd like to think that I have a few more people out there who like what I'm doing
