American Idol runner-up Blake Lewis leaves nightclub Les Deux, snuggling up with a female friend and leaving with her this past weekend. And no, it wasn’t Idol champ Jordin Sparks!

Sorry Blaker Girls, looks like your man is taken!

Earlier this month, Blake, 26, disclosed he has already recorded six songs for his upcoming album, out end of 2007.

“I try not to be put in a box,” he said. “I’m inspired by everything. I’ve got six tracks done. I’ve got a track that’s very Erasure-sounding, a track that’s Sting-meets-Neverending Story and a track that’s very electro-poppy Depeche Mode. It’s all over the map.”

Playing third wheel to Blake and his new babe? Fellow Idol contestant Haley Scarnato (pictured below).

Chris Richardson and Blake Lewis, aka CAKE, kick off the 56-date and 35-state American Idols Live tour at the Bank Atlantic Center in Sunrise, FL, on Friday night.

Idol champ Jordin Sparks and Sanjaya Malakar spoke out about the upcoming tour at a press conference earlier in the day.

“Just seeing everybody, being able to perform in front of the eight-to-fifteen thousand packed out arena and that we’re not being judged,” Jordin said. “And I can wake up in a new place every morning, I think that’ll be really cool.”

“Being able to see my fans’ faces and shake their hands. Live performance like that is really the only way that you can really see them all or see as many of them that can come,” Sanjaya said.

American Idol runner-up Blake Lewis is all smiles as he poses with his fans and carries his own luggage into his NYC hotel on Monday.

“I’m kind of glad I didn’t win for, like, contractual reasons,” Blake told People. “I think if you’re first you might have to come back for like three years or something.”

Hot on the heels of Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson and successful rocker Chris Daughtry, Blake is on the fast track to becoming Idol’s next successful “loser.”

“I think we suffer from Jennifer Hudson- and Chris Daughtry-itis, which is people who didn’t win getting great careers and now a lot of the contestants believed it absolutely doesn’t matter,” Simon Cowell has told Entertainment Weekly. “Sometimes there’s part of me thinking, ‘You genuinely couldn’t care less what we’re got to say; everything’s going your own way now.’”

Will Blake Lewis surpass Jordin Sparks in record sales… and even fame?

American Idol contestant Blake Lewis sang his own remixed rendition of Jon Bon Jovi’s “You Give Love a Bad Name” with a whole lot of beatboxing. Here’s what the judges said:

• Randy said, “Most original version of a song on American Idol… That was hot.”
• Paula said, “This was amazing.”
• Simon said, “Half the audience will hate it, half will love it. I think it was the right thing to do. Massive risk. This is what’s going to keep you in the competition next week.”
