American Idol has announced a 37-date summer tour featuring smaller venues than the top finalists visited during the show’s heyday. The closest stop on that tour is a July 21st date at the Joseph Meyerhoff Symphony Hall in Baltimore, Md. Tickets for that show and all the others go on sale Friday. Tickets for the…
Rayvon Owen earned a third straight instant save. Joey Cook’s quirky run on American Idol ended with one of her best quirky performances. And the race for the Season 14 title seemed to tighten a little Wednesday when the Top 7 tackled American classics. For song by song grades from Wednesday’s show, head here. For…
Wow, Rayvon Owen is the contestant who just will not go home. He earned his third straight instant save Wednesday night in a dramatic ending on American Idol. From the moment the show began, I predicted the night’s biggest suspense would be learning who would have to fight for the instant save alongside Rayvon. And…
The American Idol judges will be plenty busy tonight. Keith Urban, Jennifer Lopez and Harry Connick Jr. will have 14 performances to grade as each of the remaining Season 14 contestants take the stage twice to sing American classics. Barring a minor miracle, Rayvon Owen will be singing for a save again this week. The…
The American Idol Top 7 will each take the stage twice this week. That’s 14 performances in a two-hour show. How is American Idol ever going to squeeze in all that music? Just joking, of course. I’m sure the show’s snail pace — one song, followed by 20 commercials — can be kicked up a…
That might have been the closest instant save vote in The Voice history. As the seconds ticked down to tweet saves to the show Tuesday night, the on-screen results showed DeAnna Johnson with 35 percent of the vote, Brian Johnson with 35 percent and Mia Z. with 30 percent. Trust me, folks. I’ve been watching…
The Top 12 on The Voice will become a Top 10 tonight. Along the way, three singers will sing for their Voice lives and one will be saved. Last night was pretty special for the Season 8 cast. When voting ended at noon, Frederick Sawyer, Kimberly Nichole and Meghan Linsey were sitting at number 2,…
And, suddenly, Sawyer Fredericks has some competition on the iTunes charts for The Voice. Up until this point in Season 8, the 16-year-old from Fultonville, N.Y., has been the iTunes king every time he’s performed. But after Monday night’s show, he was just one of three singers to earn bonus points for landing in the…
They certainly saved the best for the last on The Voice Monday night. On a night of solid performances, Meghan Linsey of Team Blake and Kimberly Nichole of Team Christina served notice that they just might be contenders for the Season 8 crown. Singing next to last, Meghan turned in an emotional performance of “Girl…
The finals begin tonight on The Voice. That means the pressure is on for the Top 12, especially Rob Taylor, Koryn Hawthorne, Hannah Kirby and Brian Johnson, all of whom needed a coach’s save to make it this far. We’ll also be hearing from Sawyer Fredericks and Mia Z. of Team Pharrell, Meghan Linsey and…
