American Idol 10 3/10/11 Results Show – Who Got Voted Off American Idol?

American Idol Fan — Fri, 11 Mar 2011 02:00:20 +0000

This is American Idol’s results show 3/10/11! Who will be kicked off American Idol tonight? Idol judges make their grand entrance and in come the Top 13 Idol contestants. Ryan Seacrest announces that Diddy Dirty Money and Adam Lambert will perform on tonight’s elimination show. 30 million votes came in. Casey Abrams is missing from the show, is sick and in the hospital, and the contestants all waved at Casey as prompted by Ryan.

The Idol Mansion video is shown, where all the contestants stay together throughout the Season 10 competition.

Group Michael Jackson song medley by the Top 13! This is HOT!

Ford music video “The World” is shown.

Premiere of Red Riding Hood movie with the Top 13 in attendance, getting photo opp’s with Hollywood stars like leading lady Amanda Seyfried who starred in Red Riding Hood.

Ryan says he’s looking for the bottom three tonight. Ryan asks Jacob Lusk, Karen Rodriguez and Stefano Langone to take center stage. After reviewing the judges comments from last night’s performances for each contestant, Ryan says Jacob and Stefano are both safe but Karen is in the bottom 3 and in danger of being voted off tonight.

Adam Lambert sings an unplugged version of his self-written song “Aftermath”. Not what we’ve gotten used to hearing from Adam, and I’m not really caring much for this more mellow version, although I’m a big fan of Adam.

Ryan asks Lauren Alaina, Haley Reinhart and Ashthon Jones to center stage. Lauren is safe and returns to her seat, crying and relieved after saying she watched her performance again and said it “was bad”. Ashthon is in the bottom 3, as is Haley.

All the other Idol Top 13 contestants still sitting on the couch are all SAFE!

The bottom three contestants are Karen, Ashthon and Haley. Will the judges use their one vote to save one of these girls? Doubtful this early into the competition.

Diddy Dirty Money performs “Coming Home”. Some of the Diddy Dirty Money ” Coming Home Tour” cities are mentioned after Sean gives the Top 12 advice to stay strong and true to their dreams.

Karen Rodriguez is SAFE! The Bottom Two are Haley and Ashthon. Haley is SAFE!

Ashthon must sing with hopes of receiving the judges save vote, or Ashthon Jones is going home. She chooses to sing Diana Ross again, “When You Tell Me That You Love Me”.

Ashthon Jones is voted off American Idol tonight and is kicked off the show. David Cook’s boot song “Don’t You Forget About Me” is played while showing video of Ashthon’s run on the show and audition phase.

The American Idol Season 10 Top 12 are:

Lauren Alaina

Casey Abrams

Paul McDonald

Pia Toscano

James Durbin

Haley Reinhart

Jacob Lusk

Stefano Langone

Karen Rodriguez

American Idol Season 10 Schedule Air Dates Move to Wednesday and Thursday

American Idol Fan — Sun, 21 Nov 2010 16:01:57 +0000

American Idol Season 10 doesn’t start until January 2011 but FOX and AI’s Executive Producer Nigel Lythgoe have been very busy making big changes to the show in apparent hopes to revive the popularity and ratings of American Idol. Season 9 wasn’t very memorable in many people’s views, including mine. Simon Cowell ran off into the sunset to do X Factor, Kara DioGuardi got the boot, Paula Abdul has been gone awhile, leaving sole original judge Randy Jackson to carry on.

Yeah, we’ve got the new judges team of Randy Jackson, Jennifer Lopez and Steve Tyler on board. Yawn. Nigel Lythgoe announced recently that the Top 24 contestants is no more, but American Idol contestants will move right on to the Top 12 after Hollywood. AI is keeping the theme weeks, but the challenges contestants will face with the new season have increased.

According to TVGuide.com, there will be “contests to make the best music video, to promote themselves, and to work with a band and dancers for an awards show-style performance.” Whether or not American Idol will return to the early glory days of high ratings remains to be seen, but some industry observers are expecting ratings to decline from last year after the initial curiosity seekers get their fill. (LATimes)

American Idol fans have been anxious for new cd releases from their favorite AI contestants, and they’re needs have been met by new cd’s released from Season 9 winner Kris Allen, Adam “Glambert” Lambert, Crystal Bowersox, David Cook, Allison Iraheta, Lee DeWyze, Danny Gokey, Jordin Sparks, Chris Daughtry and even Tim Urban.

Previous American Idol contestants Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson cd and complete album downloads are on the top of many people’s to-do list this holiday season. Let’s also not forget to consider the popular who got kicked off American Idol boot song Leave Right Now by Will Young, played at the end of the show each time a contestant gets voted off, my personal favorite boot song to date.

American Idol Christmas 2009. American Idol fans are thrilled to know that there are several American Idol albums being released in time for the 2009 Christmas holiday season. Past American Idol contestants have been diligently working on releasing new albums for the fans, and it will be interesting to see who sells the most albums in the American Idol Christmas shopping war.

Even with the economy being as it is, in what some refer to as a continuing Recession Christmas, quite a few American Idols are hoping fans will make this year a great Christmas in music and album sales.

American Idol gifts are building in popularity and momentum, especially the American Idol Wii game and the American Idol Microphone, so if you or someone you know is a mega-American Idol fan, here are a few Christmastime new album releases to order in time for Christmas.

Kris Allen – The new Kris Allen debut album is being released on November 17 and can be pre-ordered now to lock-in the price, with a yet-to-be-determined title and gift-wrapping options.

Adam Lambert – Adam announced on Twitter that new album will be released on November 24, one week after Kris Allen’s album drops, and can be pre-ordered now. The title has not yet been announced.

Allison Iraheta – Allison Iraheta’s new album is set to be released later this fall (tentative date of November 10) and can be pre-ordered now, in time for Christmas and filling those Christmas stockings. There is still no news on the cd title or tracklist of songs, sorry.

Blake Lewis – Blake Lewis’ new cd album “Heartbreak On Vinyl” is set to be released October 6, 2009 and can be pre-ordered now. Blake’s lead single on his new album, “Sad Songs”, is available on iTunes or Amazon.

Katharine McPhee – Katharine’s new album “Unbroken” can be pre-ordered now, originally set to be released on October 6, but the release date has since been changed to January 5, 2010. Darn.

David Archuleta – David’s new Christmas cd entitled “Christmas From The Heart” has a release date of October 13, and can be pre-ordered now.

American Idol Michael Jackson Tribute Songs in Honor of MJ King of Pop

American Idol Fan — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 12:37:09 +0000

American Idol is doing a special tribute to Michael Jackson on Monday, June 29th at 8 p.m EST. in honor of the King of Pop who passed away on Thursday, June 25, 2009.

American Idol is re-airing the American Idol Season 8 Top 13 episode of Michael Jackson songs, originally aired on March 10, 2009 on FOX.

This was the first time that American Idol had done an entire evening of Michael Jackson’s music, and I’m very happy that Idol is doing this special in memory of MJ.

Gawd, I can’t believe Michael Jackson is dead. Here’s the list of songs that will be performed on Monday’s special tribute to Michael Jackson:

Lil Rounds – “The Way You Make Me Feel” VIDEO

Scott MacIntyre – “Keep the Faith” VIDEO

Danny Gokey – “Pretty Young Thing” VIDEO

Michael Sarver – “You Are Not Alone” VIDEO

Jasmine Murray – “I’ll Be There” VIDEO

Kris Allen – “Remember the Time” VIDEO

Allison Iraheta – “Give in to Me” VIDEO

Anoop Desai – “Beat It” VIDEO

Jorge Nunez – “Never Can Say Goodbye” VIDEO

Megan Joy – “Rockin’ Robin” VIDEO

Adam Lambert – “Black and White” VIDEO

Matt Giraud – “Human Nature” VIDEO

Alexis Grace – “Dirty Diana” VIDEO

The news of Michael Jackson’s death sent shock waves around the world, with Jackson fans in complete shock and disbelief that the King of Pop has died. Michael Jackson was only two years older than me, and I grew up listening to MJ’s music from the time I was little. Our family used to watch the Jackson Five variety show on television when Michael Jackson and his siblings were little boys and girls (LaToya and Janet), and we’ve never wavered in our admiration and deep respect for the genius that is Michael Jackson.

Michael Jackson fans are rushing to buy up as much Michael Jackson memorabilia as possible, and I don’t blame them one bit. I already have quite a lot of Michael Jackson music and the collection just keeps getting bigger. In my heart, Michael Jackson will live on forever not only as the King of Pop, but also someone who was born into the same family religion as I did.

If you ever watched the show on television years ago describing Michael Jackson’s early childhood and the abuse he suffered that was detailed in the story, you know what I’m referring to. I choose to remember Michael Jackson as not only the King of Pop, but also someone whose early childhood was very similar to my own – except for the music career part. Michael Jackson will never be forgotten.

Tune into Fox on Monday to watch the American Idol Tribute to Michael Jackson.

Kara says Adam “changed up the game for everyone else”. Paula is of course “unbelievably proud, long journey, bask in it, a great song for you, still haunting, I thought you did a really good job”.

Adam Lambert is singing A Change Is Gonna Come. Adam did a quick change and is wearing a light grey suit and looking good. The song performance was spectacular! Randy Jackson says “What you did right there, you can sing your face off and that was unbelievable”. Kara says the it was the best performance Adam has done, “combination of the high notes and low notes, using both sides of yourself”. Paula says Adam will be “iconic” and stands up to say “the best, the best, the best performance”. Simon Cowell says Adam Lambert is “100% back in the game…congratulations”. Great job Adam!

Kris Allen is up with “What’s Goin On” by Marvin Gaye, sitting on a stool playing guitar. Randy Jackson says “we’ve got ourselves a real live duel going on…just a little light for me man, ya know?” Kara says she’s glad Simon picked a “social conscience song, make them feel and make them change”. Paula says Kris “tore that song up and made Marvin Gaye proud”. Simon says Kris’ performance was like “three friends in their bedroom singing”.., adding Kris did not “grab hold of the song and too laid back for a night like this”. Uh Oh Kris! Simon Cowell says Adam Lambert won Round 2 “1 million percent for Adam”.

Round 3:

Adam Lambert is singing the Winner’s Coronation Song “No Boundaries“. WOW, WOW!!! Randy Jackson says “I’ve said it before I’ll say it again, you can sing anything.., you can sing the phone book, but not one of my performances, a bit pitchy for me in some spots”. Kara says she’s proud of Adam’s performance of the song she co-wrote. Paula says she’ll “be a fan forever, front line”. Simon Cowell says “you have been one of the best, original contestants on the show..I genuinely believe we have found a worldwide star in you”. Fabulous, spectacular performance by Adam Lambert tonight! (Problem is, Kara DioGuardi’s “No Boundaries” Lyrics SUCK! Very Kindergarten! Neither Adam nor Kris Allen should have to get stuck with this pathetic attempt of a song. Ick.)

Kris Allen is now singing the Winner’s Coronation Song “No Boundaries“. Kris is doing a great job, although sometimes appearing to strain to hit the higher notes. Randy Jackson says the song was a little too high for Kris. Kara DioGuardi says “I don’t want you to be judged on that song…you’ve been incredible to watch week after week…I hope people vote on the season”. Paula says “You should take it in…amazing job…I wish you the best of luck”. Simon Cowell says “I think the first song was your highlight…watching you tonight has been incredible…you have thoroughly deserved to be standing on this stage tonight, congratulations.”

Carrie Underwood closes the show with “Home Sweet Home” AKA “the boot song”.

First up is Danny Gokey singing “Dance Little Sister” by Terrance Trent D’Arby. Paula Abdul is up on her feet dancing to Danny’s performance. Good job Danny! Uptempo, singing on key (for a change), no screaming. Randy Jackson says “that was dope for me dude”. Kara DioGuardi didn’t like the dancing “too gyrating” – “forgettable performance”. Paula loved Danny’s performance, doing a “fantastic job”. Simon Cowell says the dancing “was a bit desperate”, “vocally very good”, but didn’t care much for the sax solo and “wrong song”. After Idol ends tonight, To VOTE for Danny Gokey, dial 1-866-IDOLS-01 or 04 or 07. (Text 5701) VIDEO

Next up is Kris Allen singing “Apologize” by One Republic. Kris is playing the piano and hitting the notes wonderfully, sounding really good tonight. Great job Kris! Randy Jackson loved this performance, “it shows us what you can do in the music business in the future”. Kara said it was a “competent performance”, but says “you gotta hit it out of the park” and not behind the piano, taking more chances. Paula Abdul says “there was a bum note” but says Kris deserves to be in the Top 3. Simon tells Kara she and Randy can’t choose a song for Kris to sing but then blame Kris for doing the song with the arrangement he chose, saying Kara and Randy should have chosen the arrangement. To VOTE for Kris Allen, dial 1-866-IDOLS-02 or 05 or 08. (Text 5702) VIDEO

Here comes Adam Lambert singing “One” by U2. (Simon Cowell says Bono agreed to allow Adam perform their song tonight). Starts off soft and mellow, very smooth….., then powerhouse vocals take over again. WOW Adam! Simon’s smiling and clapping. Randy Jackson says Adam “is in the zone” but wasn’t impressed with the song choice or performance, to which Simon says “booo”. Kara says Adam is a “strategist”, able to make performances “unbelievable”, doing his “own version” of the song. Paula jokes about sitting next to Simon “gloating over Adam’s performance”. Simon says “that was a brilliant song choice”, “a brilliant, brilliant performance”. To VOTE for Adam Lambert, dial 1-866-IDOLS-03 or 06 or 09. (Text 5703) VIDEO

Next up is Danny Gokey singing his Personal Choice song, “You Are So Beautiful” by Joe Cocker. I was very nervous Danny wouldn’t be able to pull off this song tonight, but Danny is sounding really good. Smooth, no screaming, great melody, very very good performance. Randy Jackson says “amazing song”, “you showed dude that you can really, really, really sing dawg”. Kara calls it a “stunning” performance. Paula says Danny’s changing up the “structure” of the song arrangement made for a “beautiful performance”. Simon calls it a “vocal masterclass”. Good job Danny!

Randy Jackson says “this is gonna be one of the toughest voting” this season, “better than the original”, “I loved it, I loved it”. Kara says it “was bold, brave and fearless”. Paula says “bravo”, “I commend you”. Simon thought it “was a lame song choice” and had “literally written you out of this competition, but that’s all changed after that performance”. Good job Kris! But, is it good enough to be in the Top 2 Finale? Again, to VOTE for Kris Allen, dial 1-866-IDOLS-02 or 05 or 08. (Text 5702) VIDEO

Adam Lambert takes the stage to sing the last song of the night and his Personal Choice song, “Cryin” by Aerosmith. True Adam Lambert all the way. Adam Lambert haters will of course despise him for the “screaming”. Randy Jackson says Adam is “one of the best we’ve ever had on American Idol”; “you are a rock star baby”. Kara wonders “Who hits those notes? Adam Lambert”. Paula says “We’ll see you in the finals”. Simon Cowell says he’s “not going to suck up”, but tells Adam that Adam fans need to vote for Adam because he deserves to be in the finals based on talent.
