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

Written by on November 21, 2010 · Leave a Comment

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.

American Idol 5/6/09 Top 4 Rock and Roll Theme-Who Got Voted Off American Idol

Written by on May 6, 2009 · 20 Comments

american-idol-top-41

American Idol May 6, 2009 is here! We’re LIVE for tonight’s American Idol Top 4 Rock theme elimination vote. American Idol starts tonight at 9 P.M. EST, when we find out Who Got Voted Off American Idol tonight!

THIS IS AMERICAN IDOL!!! Over 64 million votes were registered for last night’s ROCK performances. WOW! Ryan introduces the Idol judges. “No Doubt is here” and Daughtry performs, as does Paula Abdul.

Next is the Ford Video Performance of Move Along. VIDEO

Here comes SLASH with the Top 4 Finalists singing “Schools Out” by Alice Cooper. They’re ROCKIN’ tonight! Yeah baby! Slash sure plays a mean guitar, and the Top 4 are doing a great job, with Adam Lambert hitting the high notes with spectacular precision. VIDEO

Ryan speaks with Slash briefly about an upcoming album but gets no details, and now we’re at a commercial. The American Idol LIVE summer tour tickets go on sale this Saturday, says Ryan.

Ryan asks the Top 4 “what’s the vibe” on Wednesday nights? Kris Allen says it’s surreal to sing before millions of people, but Simon Cowell tells Kris “we don’t want humble anymore” but that Kris should feel like he deserves to be on American Idol. Adam Lambert says he’s been having a blast, and loved his outfit last night. Danny Gokey says he was laughing the whole night after watching the playback video, and referred to the ending of his Dream On song as a “horror scream”. Yeah it was! Allison says she felt the need to speak up for herself about her song choice for last night when Simon criticized her. VIDEO

Paula Abdul is up singing (lip-synching) I’m Just Here For The Music. Paula’s performance was pre-taped last night, as was No Doubt’s performance. The only LIVE performance tonight is by Chris Daughtry. Paula is wearing a short, green and black outfit, moving around the stage with her backup dancers during her performance. The song is uptempo/techno sounding and actually sounds pretty good, but I may have to listen to it a few times to get hooked on it enough to download it. VIDEO

Commercial again.

Paula Abdul did a quick clothes change and Ryan asks Paula “Why now” about why perform her song on American Idol. She says Idol is the greatest place to perform her new single.

No Doubt is on stage singing I’m Just A Girl. No Doubt is actually doing push-ups on the stage while singing. Umm, why? No Doubt (Gwen Stafani) is a very popular performer, but I don’t get the fascination, sorry. VIDEO

Green bra underneath a sheer white tank top – that’s called an outfit? Tacky, tacky. Commercial break again.

The Results Are In! Video clips of previous hometown visits are shown, since hometown visits for the Top 4 are on the line tonight. The Top 4 Finalists take the stage, and the lights are dimmed. Here we go. VIDEO

Ryan reminds each of the finalists of the judges comments about their performances last night. “The first person in the Top 3 and headed home for a parade is KRIS ALLEN!!! Wow!!! Kris Allen is SAFE!!! Commercial break again. Twitter is going wild!!!

Video is shown of Chris Daughtry being voted off American Idol Season 6, but that was “just the beginning” of Daughtry’s amazing career. Chris Daughtry is singing the debut new single performance of No Surprise on American Idol. Rock it Chris! VIDEO

Love me some Daughtry… Definitely have to dig up the Lyrics to No Surprise right after American Idol ends tonight. The song and performance is great! Chris Daughtry tells Ryan Seacrest that his elimination from American Idol felt like the “world was coming to an end, but I got over it 30 seconds later”. No kidding – Chris Daughtry ROCKS!!! Commercial again.

Who Got Voted Off American Idol?? The second person who is in the Top 3 (in random order) and headed to their hometown is ADAM LAMBERT!!!! Adam Lambert is SAFE!!!

Danny Gokey is SAFE and Allison Iraheta got voted off American Idol! Definitely didn’t see that one coming! Predictions had Danny Gokey or Kris Allen going home tonight! Wow. Shocker!!! MAJOR UPSET! Just 17 years old, Allison Iraheta once again rocks out to Janis Joplin’s Cry Baby. Allison Iraheta fans have been desperately wanting to hear Allison sing Piece Of My Heart by Janis Joplin, but it’s not going to happen on American Idol. VIDEO

The Top 3 American Idol Theme Next Week – Top 3 Finalists (Adam Lambert, Kris Allen and Danny Gokey) take on Judges Choice and their Personal Pick. TWO Songs for each next week. Hometown visits happen on Friday next week, and by then we’ll know the Judges Choices.

What do you think? Did America get it right? Should Allison Iraheta have been voted off American Idol? Who did you think/hope would get kicked off Idol tonight?

American Idol 5/5/09 Top 4 ROCK Theme Next Week-Slash Mentors, No Doubt Chris Daughtry Perform

Written by on April 30, 2009 · 16 Comments

American Idol Top 4 May 5, 2009 (Cinco de Mayo) American Idol Rock Theme! Next week’s theme on American Idol is Rock and Roll and Idol fans can hardly wait to see what songs each of the Top 4 Finalists will sing.

Slash, guitarist for Guns and Roses and Velvet Revolver, serves as Mentor to the Top 4: Adam Lambert, Allison Iraheta, Danny Gokey and Kris Allen.

ETA: TOP 4 DUET American Idol Performances!!! Top Idol is reporting a spoiler that the Top 4 Idol Finalists will not only be singing one solo song performances, but will also be singing a DUET performance as well:

“This week, the contestants WILL BE doing TWO songs, however…in another twist differentiating this season’s Top 4 show from previous ones, American Idol will be taking inspiration all those international editions of Idol…

(And I have been hoping for this for soooooo long for some sick ass reason, I swear. I have wanted to see this for some time on this shit show.)

The Top 4 will not only be performing solo renditions of classic rock songs from the 1970s and 80s…the even number means there will be also be DUET performances.”

Read the rest of the story here.

DUET Performances will/hopefully/keeping our fingers crossed…. be awesome!!! Adam Lambert and Allison Iraheta perhaps singing “Piece Of My Heart” by Janis Joplin? One can only hope.

Next week is surely going to be exciting and fun for Idol fans. I wonder if any of the Top 4 will choose to sing “Sweet Child O’ Mine”?!

No Doubt and Chris Daughtry will perform next week too.

Song List Predictions anyone? Make your suggestions, recommendations and/or predictions of song choice in the comments below.

American Idol 4/28/09 Rat Pack Theme Song List Spoilers? Idol Top 4 Rock Theme Spoiler

Written by on April 27, 2009 · Leave a Comment

UPDATE BELOW!!! The American Idol Rat Pack theme list of songs spoiler rumors from EW may or may not be true, but it’s sure fun to speculate on American Idol spoilers anyway. One thing that’s interesting from this supposed spoiler is the lack of two songs for each of the Top 5 to sing this week.

Directly from an anonymous member of Ricky Minors band here are some real spoilers which came in fresh this morning. Remember: these songs are the pics the Idols made before any dressed rehearsal but they are the real deal. Matt: ‘Fly me to the moon’ (originally Megan’s pick, but Matt insisted). Danny: ‘That’s Amore’ (his second pick is ‘i’ve got you under my skin’). Allison: ‘Can’t Take That Away From Me’. She already sung it during previous rehearsals and will probably do this one on stage. Adam ‘Leroy Brown’ or ‘That’s Life’. ‘That’s life’, was originally claimed by Kris (so don’t act all surprised if Kris comes out on stage with this one). Kris has chosen ‘Fever’ his second choice ‘That’s life’ might also be sung by Adam. And finally the group performance will showcast Allison in a leading role as the female voice in ‘Something Stupid’. Remember during rehearsals things might change.

Jamie Foxx is scheduled to be a “surprise” Mentor on American Idol tonight. Big deal. Isn’t this the same Jamie Foxx who recently made some rather unkind comments about Miley Cyrus? THAT Jamie Foxx? Ugh….

Also, the most recent American Idol news is that there will NOT be TWO songs performed on Idol tonight by the Top 5, but only one song per contestant. Why doesn’t American Idol big-shots just do away with a bunch of this “mentor” nonsense and stop wasting viewer’s time and let the TOP 5 performers do what they do best?! SING!!! And, the judging needs to go back to just three judges – this 4 judge commenting nonsense eats up the entire hour of performances, which means there’s little time left between commercials and stupid Ford video commercials and Group Performances to actually watch the Idol finalists SING!

SONG LIST SPOILER FOR TOP 5 American Idol 4/28/09:

  • KRIS ALLEN – “The Way You Look Tonight”
  • ALLISON IRAHETA – “Someone To Watch Over Me”
  • MATT GIRAUD - “My Funny Valentine”
  • DANNY GOKEY – “Come Rain Come Shine”
  • ADAM LAMBERT – “Feeling Good”

ETA: Paula Abdul says Natalie Cole will be performing on Wednesday night’s Rat Pack Results Show.
