Not just 'Idol' love: Kara DioGuardi and Kristin Chenoweth

It was clear to us when we watched Kristin Chenoweth and Kara DioGuardi on "American Idol" that this was no passing romance.

These singing chicks clicked and their love has surpassed the limits of "Idol's" often cruel judging table.

"We really bonded," says Chenoweth on "Fox & Friends." "I really love strong, talented women." We do, too!

C'mon, The Dish Rag has a heart. It's black and encrusted and takes a few martinis before it beats again, but we're touched by the woman on woman love. The last time we felt it was back in college, but that's another post.

"I text her all the time now," adds Chenoweth. "I love her."

Um, The Dish Rag is going to need a moment.

In the meantime, watch this video from 'Idol' of when K.K. first fell in love:
