American Idol

Philip Phillips! And if you did not know that I do not know which rock you live under.  He edged out Jessica Sanchez in what was a world breaking vote of over 132 million people.  That goes to show the public still loves the show even though many thought Idol was on its last leg. Season 11 ended with a star studded results show that featured Chaka Khan, Rihanna, Jon Fogerty, Jordin Sparks, the fin

Well, we are down to our Final 5 on American Idol as Elise Testone was eliminated from the competition last night. Elise didn't receive enough votes to stay in the competition, but you'll be able to catch her again on the American Idol LIVE! tour, which kicks off July 6th at Detroit's Joe Louis Arena. I wish I could say I'm glad to see her go, but I can't.

Well, we are down to our Final 6 on American Idol as Colton Dixon was eliminated from the competition last night.  Colton did not recieve enough votes to stay in the competition after singing "Bad Romance" and "September" on the Wednesday edition of AI.

Jermaine Jones‘ dismissal from ‘American Idol‘ over outstanding arrest warrants was addressed on tonight’s episode (March 14.) It cleared up a lot of questions and hopefully squashes the rumors that the gentle giant is some sort of violent criminal, as press reports began to indicate when news of his ouster broke.

This week’s ‘American Idol‘ mentor Mary J. Blige took to the stage tonight to perform her hit ‘Why.’ All class, dressed in a pants suit and some chunky jewelry, the living legend totally killed it. But were the judges into it?

On tonight’s (March 7) episode of ‘American Idol,’ the Top 13 were asked to perform songs by Whitney Houston and Stevie Wonder. The girls performed Houston’s hits, while the boys tackled Wonder’s work.

Once the lights came up after Jessica Sanchez‘ mind-blowing performance of Whitney Houston‘s ‘I Will Always Love You,’ we were kind of wondering what unfortunate soul would have to follow. But when we saw that it was fan favorite Phillip Phillips, we knew he could hold his own. Phillips brought his acoustic guitar, his baby blue eyes and his musical soul to the stage tonight for Stevie Wonder‘s ‘S

When you see 17-year-old ‘American Idol‘ contestant Hollie Cavanagh, you would never imagine what happens when she opens her mouth and begins to sing. This little girl has one of the biggest voices in the competition, and she gave one of the most impressive performances of the night singing ‘All the Man I Need’ by Whitney Houston.

The always emotional Jeremy Rosado attempted Stevie Wonder‘s ’Ribbon in the Sky’ on ’American Idol‘ tonight to mixed results. The all-around nice guy, who was saved by Jennifer Lopez last week during the wild-card round, never found that special Stevie Wonder sweet zone.

When watching ‘American Idol‘ contestant Deandre Brackensick perform, it’s hard to believe he was a wildcard who easily could have not been a part of this competition. Before his performance Ryan Seacrest sat down with the singer and showed him some emotional footage from last week of Brackensick crying...

So who was the soul brave enough to attempt Whitney Houston‘s biggest hit, ‘I Will Always Love You,’ on tonight’s tribute episode of ‘American Idol‘ (March 7)? The petite powerhouse known as Jessica Sanchez, that’s who. How’d she do?

Resident ‘American Idol‘ country rocker Skylar Laine channeled her inner pop star tonight while singing Whitney Houston‘s ‘Where Do Broken Hearts Go.’ Skylar had an early disadvantage, admitting that she had never listened to Houston growing up. We find that hard to believe.
