A new opening. Two new judges. Fewer wretched singers. “American Idol” Season 10 premiered and, if I’m being honest, it didn’t feel much different to me. I barely noticed Simon Cowell or Ellen DeGeneres were gone. And to be even more honest, I JUST now (no joke) remembered Kara DioGuardi was ever even a judge. [...]

The reigning “American Idol” champion Lee DeWyze’s first album “Live it Up” is set to drop Nov. 16, but the first single from the album is creating a buzz already. Listen to the new song below and let us know what you think. It kind of surprised me (not in a good way). It just [...]

Yesterday I was on a conference call with Adam Lambert and we discussed his album, “For Your Entertainment” and his upcoming Glam Nation Tour which kicks off tomorrow in Pennsylvania. …continued from American Idol Net. Q:  Can you tell us more about the show itself?  And also the repertoire, what else are we going to [...]

It’s time to move on from the American Idol world.  People can’t seem to quit talking about Crystal losing but like I said in my previous article, she would get a record deal and she does.  She and Lee both signed their recording contracts yesterday with 19 entertainment so expect their albums to come out [...]

We have a winner and it isn’t Crystal Bowersox.  Lee Dewyze won the night on American Idol and will record “Beautiful Day” as his first single.  I must say I’m happy with the results.  I know there are a lot of Crystal fans out there and you shouldn’t worry, she will record an album as [...]

It was a great night for Simon Cowell to give the final critiques of his American Idol career.  You couldn’t have asked for two better singers from this season, unless you want to throw in Casey James, for Simon to have as the Top 2 finalists.  I thought in honor of the judge we all love to hate I would [...]

My man Casey James did not receive enough votes to make it into the finale of American Idol.  Casey was gracious after the announcement thanking AI for the opportunity and claiming it was an amazing journey.  I don’t think we’ve seen the last of this handsome young man. Not only did Casey show tremendous talent [...]

Tuesday night Big Mike said his goal was to make it into the Top 3 and Ellen immediately said his goal should have been to win.  Since he was ‘saved’ by the judges like five weeks ago, I think the guy should be happy with what he got and I’m sure there will be someone waiting to let [...]

Next week’s theme for American Idol Season 9 is songs from the movies with Jamie Foxx as mentor.  Instead of allowing the contestants to sing some of the more current soundtracks, we have more ballads and a crappy list from the 80′s.  Even Purple Rain would have been better than this shit.  None of the rock [...]

Siobhan Magnus, the girl best known for her loud screech at the end of each song, was eliminated from American Idol Season 9 tonight and I say about time.  There wasn’t much about the girl  I liked, from the way she dressed, to how she sang, to her talking back to the judges when they [...]
