Do we remember how to do this? It’s been a good while since we’ve done an “American Idol” notes piece, where we do some quick-hits concerning what is going on in the world of some of the most-famous contestants to come from the show. Given that this is “American Idol” season, though, now does feel […]
The more news that we hear about the upcoming judging panel for “American Idol,” the more we start to wonder just how big of a mistake it was to get rid of Nigel Lythgoe and Ken Warwick.

We’re going to start off this Sunday edition of “American Idol” notes by talking about what has to be an extremely significant honor for one Adam Lambert: getting the opportunity to actually receive the key to Miami Beach earlier today. This honor for Adam came about as a part of Miami Pride 2013, where he […]
Before you take off and enjoy the weekend, why not chill for a few more minutes with some former “American Idol” contestants? We’ll kick things off with Jennifer Hudson, mostly because there is an interesting debate to be had with what the Oscar-winning actress has to say about the new panel. J-Hud was on “Live! […]
