All the numbers indicate that American Idol — and not The Voice — is the place to be.
Yep, you might have to shed a few tears, because Idol loves its drama. Yep, your backstory might get twisted and tattered just a smidgen. And, yep, you might get asked about your dating life.
But in the end, the goal of being on any such show is to be seen, develop name recognition and gain fans.
And, right now, there’s no better place to be than Idol.
By Tuesday, the Top 6 on American Idol will have performed 15 times on the show. The Top 13 on The Voice will have performed five times. Both shows end the same week.
More insightful are the social media numbers below. Contestants with team affiliations are from The Voice Season 16; contestants without are singing on American Idol Season 17.
The top six in terms of Instagram support are all from Idol, and look at that gap between number six and number seven.
Six of the top seven on Twitter are from Idol, as are six of the top eight on Facebook.
Of the Idol Top 6, Laine Hardy entered Season 16 with a large fan base. How did he get it? From appearing on Idol last year.
Of the Voice contestants — Dexter Roberts and Gyth Rigdon (70,000 pre-show Facebook followers) — entered Season 16 with large fan bases.
And where did Dexter’s come from? American Idol, Season 13.
