American Idol

Despite a rough Hollywood week, 15-year-old Jacee Badeux remains a fan and judge favorite in this year's "American Idol" competition.

I am so glad that Hollywood Week is starting on American Idol.  Usually, I enjoy the auditions, but this season it felt long and tedious to me.  Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez put so many undeserving contestants through at the start of the auditions, that I began to get frustrated.

Of course, American Idol is about finding the next big star that has the entire "package", voice, stage presence, looks and confidence.  However, it should not be just about the looks!

American Idol continued last night with a stop in Milwaukee.  I still like the new judges and I think it's going to be a really good season.

You have 6,000 channels (or about that) but have you seen everything? No worries, we've tracked down the five best clips that will either have you ROFL or wiping away the tears.

Steven Tyler was so inappropriate during last night's show that I was embarrassed  for him.  It felt so awkward when he made lewd and suggestive comments to the young female contestants.  A couple of these gals were 16 years old, seriously; he could be there grandfather!  Watch the video clip of just one example:

On the eve of American Idol kicking off their 10th season, former Idol, Adam Lambert is making news. Alex Lambert, a season 9 “American Idol” semi-finalist, shocked his Twitter fans on Tuesday when he posted a message claiming to be homeless.

Of course last night was the 10th season premiere of American Idol.  I have been saying that it's not going to be the same without Simon, but I was pleasantly surprised.

Season 10 begins tonight, and it's certainly no coincidence that a new book about the most-successful reality show of all time hit the stores yesterday.

So, Steven Tyler stated on The Leno Show that "he has never watched American Idol".  What?

I am the self-proclaimed biggest American Idol fan in the country.  I watch the show every week, I vote for my favorites not just once, but up to 100 times if I really like contestant.  I Google the contestants, host and judges just to find out as much information as I can about them.  All that being said, I am concerned about what my show will be like without Simon Cowell.

The countdown is on for "American Idol".  It's a new season with new judges, so we'll see how it goes.
