The seventh season of American Idol kicks off next month.

But a poster on Idol Forums named “Joesplace” claims to have inside knowledge of the top 50 contestants that heard the magic words: “You’re going to Hollywood!”

MTV reports that the obsessed fan “has listed the names, ages, home cities and MySpace pages of contestants fortunate enough to actually make it to Hollywood, where judges Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson will whittle the top 50 down to the top 24. And it appears that the list may be legit, based on information contained within the MySpace pages of the supposed [American Idol] contenders.”

According to “JoesPlace,” he started compiling the list a couple months ago and found the contestants “through media and word of mouth.”

So take this with a grain of salt the size of Lucy Pinder‘s boobs, but the following names are supposedly part of the top 50 on American Idol this season:

  • Lorena Pinot
  • Teresa Anello (pictured)
  • Jason Castro
  • Ashley Robinette
  • Charity Daw
  • Lisa Aukerman
  • Syesha Mercado
  • Michael Preston
  • Jermaine Paul
  • Kevin Boyce
  • Brooke Helvie
  • Brandon Green
  • David Archuleta
  • Cardin McKinney
