Thanks to last week's gimmick show where no American Idol contenders were voted off the show, both Blake Lewis and Chris Richardson remain on the show. The two male vocalists are still around along with Phil Stacey, Melinda Doolittle, Lakisha Jones and Jordin Sparks. But it was Chris and Blake that were spotted out hitting the LA club scene this weekend.

Richardson has been linked with Idol castoff Alaina Alexander, Lauren Conrad and even Lindsay Lohan during the season. And when he was caught by TMZ cameras brushing up against the show's curfew with Blake he had a few things to say.

The report: Like a young apprentice following his master, "A.I." studlet Blake Lewis risked breaking curfew and journeyed into the Hollywood club scene this weekend -- behind his onscreen rival, Chris Richardson.
As Chris hammed it up for the cameras, answering questions and flashing his megawatt smile like a seasoned party scene vet, a shy Blake stayed mum, trailing his competition during the long walk to Parc nightclub.

While Chris didn't have any comment on his new party pal, he did have a few words about his rumored relationship with MTV star Lauren Conrad, telling our cameras, "That girl is just my friend, man."
