Another 'Idol' Exit: McPhee Leaves RCA (Billboard)

Katharine McPhee has joined fellow "American Idol" contestants Taylor Hicks and Ruben Studdard as former members of the Sony BMG family. The artist has parted ways with RCA after a solitary album, a 2007 self-titled affair that debuted at No. 2 on The Billboard 200.

A label source confirmed McPhee's departure, which was first reported by Entertainment Weekly.

Well, at least Kat has her budding movie career to fall back on. Go McTatas! Fight!
