Tonight, the “dreaded” part of “American Idol XIV” began with the Group Round, which we never really love. There are typically so many singers, and typically so many pretty-good singers, it can be ultimately rather hard to keep up. What we do know is this: David Oliver Willis is still one of our favorites, Shi […]
What’s it going to take for “American Idol” to give David Oliver Willis a little bit of love? He’s the sort of guy who really shouldn’t have been cut any season that he was on the show, and yet at the same time, he has. Even so far this season, he has been cut out […]
Tonight on “American Idol XIV,” Hollywood Week began! With that being said, this was obviously a very different sort of Hollywood Week than the one that we have seen on past seasons of the show. Also, we appreciated the whole “Hollywood or Home” bit being given the guillotine, since it was terribly cruel to send […]
It’s funny in a way that before the season, the judges on “American Idol” really claimed that they were not looking so much for diamonds in the rough this season. Why? They’ve learned over the years that these people don’t really have the time to get it all together through the competition, and need another […]
If you are competing on “American Idol” this season, we have a message for you: Watch out for Trevor Douglas. We already know that this guy is a pretty good singer and musician, but we’ve also seen online that he is building a sizable fan following. This shouldn’t surprise anyone: He is a young male […]
Tonight, “American Idol XIV” is officially concluding its auditions, which is something that you probably can shed a little tear about. There have been good cities (New York), okay ones (New Orleans), and then ones that we’d prefer never existed in the slightest (Minneapolis / St. Paul). We’re concluding tonight with more from San Francisco, […]
It feels like it’s been a while since we’ve done an “American Idol” notes article, but with there being so many different headlines out there right now, doesn’t this seem like a good time to bring it back? Adam Lambert’s new album title – “The Original High.” This was confirmed by the season 8 star / […]
Wednesday night’s “American Idol” episode had almost everything from San Francisco, but perhaps most importantly, it had an array of genuinely good talent! We’d be lying if we said that we were completely impressed with most of what we saw last week, because we weren’t. That Minnesota audition episode was straight from the bowels of […]
There are going to be a variety of different singers who try out on Wednesday night’s new “American Idol,” but Rocky Peter is definitely going to be one of the people to watch. He definitely has one of the more emotional stories that we’ve heard so far this season. Based on how explains this to […]
We cannot quite figure out if we find the “American Idol” audition below to be annoying or entertaining. We appreciate that contestants are coming into these auditions with a goal to stand out, but there’s a difference between a cheesy gimmick and taking something a little too far. Was Samuel Prince a little much? We’ll […]
