Below is a photo gallery from Wednesday night’s performance show on American Idol. Head here for my recap of the show, including predictions on who will be in danger tonight. Head here for the live blog, including song-by-song grades. And check back tonight. I’ll be live blogging throughout the results show. Now for the photos.
Some great performances on American Idol tonight, right? Just imagine how good the night could have been if the show had allowed all the contestants to sing within their comfort zones. Because for every Hollie Cavanagh who was quite fine with singing Whitney Houston, there was an Elise Testone who struggled to imprint her vocal…
Tonight marks Idol’s 400th episode, executive producer Nigel Lythgoe noted in a tweet earlier today. Congrats to the folks at Idol, but — more importantly — to all the contestants who made that longevity possible. If those contestants had not struck a chord with viewers, I’m pretty sure Idol wouldn’t be around 11 years after…
Every March is seems like we get a host of new music from former Idol contestants, just as the new season of Idol finals begins. This year will be no exception, with album releases this month from Ruben Studdard, Casey James and Elliott Yamin. And Kris Allen, the Season 8 winner, is back too, with…

Back in late January, when Jack Matranga and Brooke White released their second EP together, they promised there would be more on the way. Even though Brooke had a baby on the way, due in May. Looks like the next EP will be cover songs, according to an announcement today on the Jack & White…
Think back to the Season 9 auditions, American Idol fans. Remember the young man who took down his hair, then stripped off his shirt at the request of Victoria Beckham and Kara DioGuardi. That’s right, Casey James. Casey went on to finish third on American Idol that year, right behind Lee DeWyze and Crystal Bowersox….
Each judge has 12 contestants. Tonight they start to pair them off as the field of 48 gets whittled down on The Voice. You know, I don’t mind the swiveling chairs on The Voice. In fact, I wish we could put Randy Jackson in one on Idol and spin his away from the TV cameras…
UPDATE (7:30 p.m.): Well, folks, Carrie’s slow tease is over. Her complete album cover, revealed piece by piece the afternoon has been revealed. Prepare to be Blown Away — that’s the title of the new album, due May 1. Earlier, Jonathan Kish commented on Carrie’s right arm and pondered whether it was “hotter than Angelina’s…
