Idol Chatter & Voice Views

If watching Tuesday’s 8 p.m. performance show and Wednesday’s two-plus-hour season finale isn’t going to be enough American Idol for you this week … well, the TV Guide Network is rushing to your rescue.

The network will offer up three specials around the conclusion of season nine, with season one runner-up Justin Guarini and season seven contestant Brooke White serving as co-hosts.

Here’s the rundown …

* Tuesday from 7 to 8 p.m.: Brooke and Justin will be live outside the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles as Crystal and Lee prepare to take the stage. They’ve be interviewing Idol experts about their predictions on the outcome and providing a sneak peek of what fans can expect in the season finale.

* Wednesday from 6 to 8 p.m.: Brooke and Justin will be live on the Idol red carpet, interviewing contestants, musicians, judges and celebrities as they make their way into the season finale at the Nokia Theatre.

* Thursday, 8 p.m.: Brooke and Justin take a look back at season nine of American Idol on a show that will include interviews with the winner and the runner-up.

And don’t forget to check back here on tonight and Wednesday.

I’ll be blogging live during both shows and posting as many photos as possible.
