Reports going left and right in the past week or so have named a large number of potential American Idol judges, but we’ve got the scoop to help narrow down the field and keep the rumors to a minimum. Thanks to E!Online, we’ve learned that the Steven Tyler reports could very well be set in stone. No official word has been released (and likely won’t be soon), but as Idol gets closer to start filming for Season 10, we’ll be hearing more. Continue reading after the break for all the scoop on Idol’s new Judge’s panel and don’t forget to stay up to date on all things entertainment in our forums!

Confirmed yesterday, Nigel Lythgoe is for sure coming back as Executive Producer of American Idol, joining forces with Simon Fuller, Cecile Frot-Coutaz and Ken Warwick. Lythgoe reportedly would also like a way to bring back former Idol judge Paula Abdul, which may be a tough one to crack now being she has signed exclusively [...]
AOL TV has reported that Nigel Lythgoe might be returning to American Idol for a much needed remodeling of the show’s structure and format. And first on the table for the So You Think You Can Dance judge and Executive Producer? Completely revamping the Judge’s table. No more Randy, Kara, and maybe Ellen? Who [...]
So another season of American Idol has come to a close. How would I wrap up the season? Well, there were a few good moments, and many boring ones. I myself was a huge Crystal fan, and thought the final two were the perfect choice. America got that part of it right. Crystal deserved the win for sure, having many more great moments during the season than Lee had, however I don’t think she needed it as much as Lee did, so the winning choice still made me happy. Now I know there are many out there that did not prefer the fawning over Crystal that the judges seemed to do, I myself thought it appropriate however since in my opinion she was that good. Last year though, I was on the other end of that statement, thinking Adam did not deserve the fawning, so I know it all comes down to taste.
The finale: Now I don’t know if it’s my age, my taste, a little bit of both, but I personally thought this was one of the best finales AI had ever had. It almost felt like they called me, and asked who I would like to see perform. Christina was amazing as usual and I loved her new song, Janet was a terrific surprise although that first song she sang sounded eerily like Michael to me (Plus I would have loved to see Paula out there dancing during “Nasty Boys” seeing as she was a choreographer on the video. I wonder if they made up yet? I know they had a major falling out years ago), Michael McDonald was awesome (couldn’t believe he was there since he is noticeably absent from the Doobies ALWAYS), Joe Cocker was great, the Bee Gee’s, Hall and Oates, Chicago, all wonderful, and the surprise visit from Bret Michaels was real neat, although I’m not sure he should be doing things against his doctors orders, probably not smart… I have to say though my favorite moment was Alanis. The notable change in lyric on “You Oughta Know” (from “Would she go down on you in a theater” to “would she go down with you to a theater”) made me chuckle out loud. I just wish that segment would have lasted longer, although I know (since I know the lyrics to that song) that there wasn’t too much further they could have gone with that song without getting crazy with the changes or the sensor button!

Rumor has it that some people’s favorite judge might be back on American Idol for this season’s finale, where either Lee Dewyze or Crystal Bowersox will be crowned the next American Idol. For those of you still watching American Idol (or plan on watching the finale), what do you think? Reports are circulating saying [...]

First things first, congratulations go out to Kris Allen, winner of American Idol, Season 8, 2009!!!! Kris bested front runner and judges lovechild Adam Lambert, talented in his own right, by capturing just a reported 1% more of the 100 MILLION PLUS votes cast after last night’s final performances.

So we just had the showdown between Kris Allen and Adam Lambert on the finale of Season Eight of American Idol and I have to admit, despite media proclamations, this SHOULD be a close race. But what I REALLY want to talk about here is the burning question of when is enough, enough with American Idol? The judges, the entire season, have been SO obvious in their idolistic adoration of Adam Lambert, it’s hard to imagine why the season was even allowed to continue. If the judges had their way they probably would’ve given the title to Adam weeks ago.

Yes, I know I am late on this… but with all the hubbub of moving down to the final 2, Gokey leaving, and my other annoyances with the whole shebang, I completely let something slip from my mind, only to have it pop up again in my little brain today… and all I have to say is… WTF American Idol?

It has been reported around the web and on radio that we are in for an American Idol “shocker” this evening. According to many different sources, it has nothing to do with who is staying or going, but something to do with Paula… who knows. She has supposedly been twittering this morning about a [...]
