Scotty and Kelly Both Golden

According to USA Today's Idol Chatter blog, both Scotty McCreery and Kelly Clarkson have gone gold. The odd thing is the young guy Scotty has done it with his album, while the old girl Kelly has done it her her single. This is the opposite of what it should be. But the reason for it is Scotty is country, while Kelly is pop. Country folk are still into albums, while pop folk are all about singles.
