American Idol: Top 10 Best Auditions

American Idol hits it’s 10th season on the airwaves tomorrow night with it’s much anticipated winter premiere (8EST/7CST on Fox). Lots has changed with the show following Simon Cowell’s departure. Ellen Degeneres left the judge’s table, soon followed by Kara DioGuardi. Randy Jackson is the only original judge left and welcomed Jennifer Lopez and Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler to the panel. A few more changes will be made to the show’s format this season, which you can read all about HERE! As we prepare to begin a new season with the audition stage, we thought it’d be fun to take a look back at some of the best Idol auditions of the past. We’ve narrowed it down to our Top 10, but we know you’ll have a different list. So check ours out and be sure to comment below and share your very own Top 10 list here in our forums! Didn’t like ours? Well let us know below! Here we go…

#10. Clay Aiken, “Always and Forever”

Love him or hate him, Clay was the original Idol surprise, if you will. Walking in, not looking like a pop star, only to surprise the judges and America with his powerful and soothing voice, Clay gave them reason to believe he had what it takes to follow Clarkson and become the next American Idol. And he got pretty close…Until he released “Invisible” and I think people’s opinion on Clay started to change.

Pink is ‘eating for two,’ as Pregnancy Rumors Confirmed

Today on your televisions everywhere, Pink confirmed to Ellen Degeneres that the rumors are true…she is with child! Pink and husband Carey Hart have been working on having a child together for some time, she revealed. Her doctor thinks the newest addition to their family is a girl! Pink and Hart were hesitant on announcing her pregnancy as the singer previously suffered a miscarriage. Pink went on to describe her relationship with Hart. “We worked really hard and we had our little meltdowns, a couple of them, and now, we’re honestly, we both needed to do that and come back together. It’s just yummy.”

Congratulations to Pink and Carey Hart on their pregnancy. We here at the Yak wish for a safe and healthy journey to parenthood! Post your congratulations below and join our FORUMS to discuss!
