After a night packed full of show stopping performances by several contestants which included a standing ovation for Adam Lambert by Simon Cowell, there was little doubt that Scott MacIntyre and Lil Rounds would be in the bottom three for tonight’s elimination. Scott and Lil gave performances that were highly criticized by all four judges [...]
Tonight’s show started with a glimpse of a producers desire to be current. The final group of 12 smiled vigorously as they crooned Katy Perry’s “Hot ‘n Cold”. All this time I thought that it was the group SONG that made these performances so cheesy. You learn something new every day.
It was so clear that [...]

We are only one episode away from the live performances. An interesting thing has been added this season. During the chair episodes, they are letting people they are undecided about have a sing-off to earn their spot in the semi-finals.

Hollywood “week” has finally arrived. This is one of my favorite phases during the American Idol season because we have weeded out the “bad” auditions and know the real talent is left fighting it out for the select spots. I think these episodes give us the most “reality” during the entire season.

In a single city, I personally had four different auditions. First the cattle call, where everyone in the coliseum gets to sing for one of the 15 (give or take) tables on the floor. Next I sang for Ken Warwick the first (and now only) executive producer. Then I made it through Nigel Lythgoe, the [...]
