This is an Idol first: A singer prominently featured on The X Factor winds up on FOX’s other singing show. Jillian Jensen was among the singers we were introduced to on Wednesday’s premiere episode of American Idol Season 13.
American Idol has another singing cheerleader. You’ll recall that back in Season 11, blonde beauty Brittany Kerr caused a stir when she hit the Idol stage.
On his website, Sam Woolf writes that “I’ve been singing as long as I can remember. Music is my life. I play guitar and I write my own songs.” The 17-year-old from Bradenton, Fla., says his music falls in the lines of “acoustic/folk/rock with a little pop” thrown in.
And here it is: The American Idol Season 13 premiere we’ve been anxiously awaiting. Or at least the premiere Idol execs hope we’ve been anxiously awaiting.
What a difference a year makes. Last year at this time, American Idol seemed to be relying on the potential for catfights between Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey to reel in viewers.
Carrie Underwood is truly queen of the American Idols. At least she was in 2013 in terms of making money, according to a report published today by Forbes.
American Idol Season 8 contestant Megan Joy has released a pair of new singles and has a new album right around the corner. The new singles are “Boy Next Door” and “Double Life.”
Well, this is pretty impressive. James Wolpert’s post-Voice show at the American Music Theatre in Lancaster sold out in a flash.
Michelle Chamuel, Season 4 runner-up on The Voice, is back with a new EP. But you won’t find her post-Voice single, “Go Down Singing,” on it.
If you’re going to be in Philly or Washington, D.C., on Tuesday, you can catch the premiere of American Idol Season 13 one day early. If not, you can still listen in to what the judges have to say about the new season.
