Rihanna will be on hand to crown the ‘American Idol‘ victor this year. The Bajan beauty is slated to perform on the May 23 finale at 8PM ET.

Party rock was in the house tonight (April 19) on ‘American Idol.’ While Kris Allen doled out a breezy rendition of his new single, LMFAO brought their potent and patented blend of party rock, lightening the someone-is-going-home mood of the elimination episode. Someone had to bring the fun, and Sky Blu and Redfoo answered the call with a rousing, zebra-filled and colorful rendition of their apolo

On tonight’s episode (April 18) of ‘American Idol,’ the Top 7 (since Jessica Sanchez earned the sole season save) performed a modern hit and a throwback classic from the soul era. Each singer performed twice, showing off different sides of their sonic personalities as the season starts to wind down and we inch closer and closer to a winner...

Here is one music video that Marc Anthony, the ex-husband to Jennifer Lopez, will probably NOT be watching. J-Lo premiered her latest music video to "Dance Again" last Thursday on American Idol, and it is HOT!!! The music video features J-Lo, Pitbull, and her 24-year-old backup dancer boyfriend Casper Smart.

When Joshua Ledet revealed that he would (bravely attempt to) sing Mariah Carey‘s version of ‘Without You’ on the latest episode of ‘American Idol,’ season advisor Jimmy Iovine immediately stated that it’s one of the five hardest songs to sing in popular music.

Jermaine Jones‘ dismissal from ‘American Idol‘ over outstanding arrest warrants was addressed on tonight’s episode (March 14.) It cleared up a lot of questions and hopefully squashes the rumors that the gentle giant is some sort of violent criminal, as press reports began to indicate when news of his ouster broke.

Sixteen Year Old Jessica Sanchez became a "household name" overnight after she performed "I Will Always Love You" on American Idol. The young lady in her small frame took on the challenge to perform one of the most difficult songs to sing, and she did before an national viewing audience.

The Hollywood rounds of ‘American Idol‘ have begun, and a whopping 68 contestants were sent home on the first day. The judges sifted through tons of talent, dashing dreams, breaking hearts and catering to possible future stars. It’s a hard shill being an ‘Idol’ judge, especially when you watch contestant Symone Black fall off the stage right in front of your face.

So on tonight's episode of American Idol one of the contestants fell OFF the stage!  When I say fall I don't mean she gracefully stumbled off, I mean she took it straight to the floor.  I don't know if she was nervous, sick, stressed, or all of the above, but she REALLY took a 'hit' on tonight's show. Reports are saying that the contestant is doing fine and there are no injuries, but I can't wait

On this special, Sunday night, post-NFC championship game edition of ‘American Idol,’ the producers hit San Diego, the So Cal city where the whether is always nice, to mine some talent. The auditions took place on the USS Midway, which was loud, but there was a crop of quality wannabes that got golden tickets to the next round.

The gloves are off. With the debut season of ‘X Factor‘ in the rear view, nabbing significantly less viewers than ‘American Idol‘ expat Simon Cowell had hoped, and the 11th season of ‘Idol’ kicking off Jan. 18 (only to be tailed by ‘The Voice‘), producers are taking a few verbal swipes at the competition. And why not? ‘Idol’ has nearly double the viewers of ‘X Factor,’ due to an 11-year brand. Rea

The trouble with girls is nothing compared to the trouble with lip syncing — especially with cameras around! ‘American Idol‘ winner Scotty McCreery, perched atop a festive float, got busted miming the lyrics to his hit, ‘The Trouble With Girls‘ this Thanksgiving.

OK, it's been a few hours, so it's perfectly fine for us to start making fun of this whole Kim Kardashian "divorce" thingy. If the fact that Kim honestly thinks we believe that she wanted it to "last forever" or the fact that Kris Humphries had "no idea this was coming" and "found out through TMZ" isn't funny enough, then this list of stuff that had a longer

If anyone didn't know what happened, by looking at this picture, you would assume that Steven Tyler got his ass kicked. The Aerosmith front man took a nasty spill in a hotel shower while touring in Paraguay over the weekend. He was rushed to the hospital to receive treatment for a busted lip, a forehead gash and two broken front teeth.

During an appearance on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show on Wednesday, ‘American Idol’ producer Nigel Lythgoe confirmed judges Jennifer Lopez, Steven Tyler, and Randy Jackson would be back for season 11 of the show. “I am delighted to say that all three judges, along with the brilliant host of ‘American Idol’ are back for the next season,” he told Seacrest, who happens to be the aforementioned “brillian

Only a few weeks after she announced that she is splitting from Marc Anthony, actress/singer/’American Idol’ host Jennifer Lopez opened up to Vanity Fair about the downfall of her marriage and why she’s still an “eternal optimist.” In an exclusive cover story, Lopez revealed: “It’s not that I didn’t love myself before. Sometimes we don’t realize that we are compromising ourselves. To understand th

For the finale of American Idol, we saw an A-List of celebrities and musicians perform before the winner was announced LIVE on FOX. One of the much anticipated performers was Beyonce as she performed latest project, "One Plus One."

Another season of American Idol is in the books, and your American Idol is Scotty McCreery!! The young man with his signature voice has taken the crown and now leaps in the perhaps the competitive industry out there, the music industry.

It seems like only yesterday we were saying goodbye to Jaycee Badeaux on the last cut before the top performers hit the stage for the live tv appearances, but blink an eye and it's down to two. Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina have survived the cuts and now we'll find out this week who will be the latest American Idol.
