American Idol Season 9 – Denver Auditions – VIDEO

Published on 02/02/2010 in AI S9 Recaps, AI Season 9 and American Idol. 92 Comments

Finally, an audition episode that’s chock-full of talented singers…and I’ll be damned if I can remember any of them! With so much talent from Denver–26 contestants moving on to Hollywood–it’s a wonder the episode wasn’t more memorable.

But, maybe, after 7 episodes, I’m burnt out on Idol auditions. I enjoy the Idol audition phase less and less every year. I’m really looking forward to next week, when the Hollywood episodes begin–if only to see how Ellen DeGeneres steps into her new role as judge.

We got a better glimpse of Victoria Beckham as guest judge than we did in Boston, and I have to say, if fashion advice is all she had for the auditioners, her remarks were better left on the cutting room floor.

It’s not as if Ms. Posh Spice doesn’t sing, so you’d think she’d have more to say than just “nice dress!” or “I love your look!” Total GAH! at having to endure two audition episodes with Beckham. More Neil Patrick Harris and Shania Twain please!

Tonight’s episode could have been subtitled, American Idol Daycare, with the emphasis on the contestant’s kids, or their friend’s kids, or the kids’ friends. Yeah, there were a lot of kids, especially in the first half hour.

My favorites from tonight:

Haeley Vaughn is something we haven’t really on Idol yet–an African American country singer. Talented and vivacious, I’m looking forward to seeing what Haely’s got.

Anybody who picks a Squeeze song to perform in front of the judges is OK in my book, so I found myself really digging Mark Labriola, whose jokey-joke audition made way for some surprisingly good vocals.

Not only is Kimberly Kerbow a cutie, but she’s got a sweet, lilting voice, and a nice girl-singer-songwriter thing going on. I’m looking forward to hearing more from her in Hollywood.

Kara DioGuardi and Elliott Yamin head to Angola for ‘Idol Gives Back’

Elliott Yamin is headed back to Angola for this year’s “Idol Gives Back,” and Kara DioGuardi is tagging along. “We’re going back and Kara is rolling with me,” Elliott tells Idol Tracker. “The last time I was there with Fantasia, we visited a school that had this flight of stairs that led to nowhere. They told me there wasn’t enough money to finish building the school, so I got Exxon-Mobil to underwrite $100,000 so that the kids would have an adequate place to learn.”

Elliott added that his role will be to take Kara around and “show her the ropes.” The two will also present a check to Sister Dominguez and continue the “Idol Gives Back” initiative with Malaria No More, an organization that provides mosquito nets to help thwart the spread of malaria.

‘Idolatry’: Sexy ladies wail, sappy stories fail, and Joe Jonas trumps Neil Patrick Harris (what?!) this week on ‘American Idol’

Week three of American Idol’s ninth season fell into a thoroughly predictable groove: Contestants whose auditions were gussied up with 10 lbs. of backstory sailed through to Hollywood; the guest judges who everyone expected to be whip-smart and amusing (hi, Neil Patrick Harris!) lived up to their billing; and Simon Cowell got hot and bothered whenever a sexy chica appeared on the scene. To counterbalance this unwavering absence of capriciousness on the nation’s favorite talent program, we here at Idolatry decided it was time to get krazy with a k.

Rep: Megan Fox Will Not Judge ‘X-Factor’

There’s a rumor going around that actress Megan Fox will be sharing the judging panel with “Idol’s” Simon Cowell on the “X-Factor,” but Megan’s rep confirms to “Extra” that it’s false.

Cowell will be leaving “Idol” at the end of the current season in order to bring his successful UK show the “X-Factor” to the US.

INSIDE STORY: Idol Contestant’s Mother Vanishes

But the day after a family Christmas dinner, her mother, Viola Brown Martin, failed to show up at her intended destination, the house of Angela’s older sister. After the family filed a missing person’s report, the Glenwood, Ill., police found Viola’s car on New Year’s Eve in an unfamiliar neighborhood.

As of Jan. 23, Viola is still missing. “We haven’t heard anything yet,” Martin tells PEOPLE. “The detectives have been calling my sisters and myself, and just keeping us informed. They say they are still just looking and asking us more questions, if we know anything but her friends are calling us, so it’s hard.”

Viola’s tan-colored 1999 Chrysler Cirrus was found in the south Chicago suburbs of Riverdale and Dixmoor, not close to her daughter Latrina’s home. “We haven’t stopped looking,” Martin says. “We’ve been out in the cold, and before I left to go to Hollywood, we were looking. I think what hurts us the most was they found her car but they didn’t find her. It was abandoned in a forest preserve in the dark. We just want to know, what were you doing over there?”

A rumor that St. Petersburg native Michael Lynche was disqualified from American Idol richochets across the media universe

The Web site Reality Blurred noted Friday that Lynche’s father, Marque Lynche Sr., confirmed his son’s place in the top 24 in a story by me that was published in the St. Petersburg Times, which might violate the show’s confidentiality rules.

But neither blog cites concrete evidence connecting the newspaper story to any possible dismissal of Lynche. The Fox network has continually refused to comment on the status of contestants before it is revealed on the show and Marque Lynche Sr. has now disconnected his home phone in Sarasota, declining to comment.

Talent show mogul Simon Cowell has confirmed he is organising a charity single to raise funds for the Haiti earthquake appeal.

Cowell also said he had a “couple of ideas” about which cover version to do.

X Factor judge and Girls Aloud star Cheryl Cole gave the plan her backing, saying she would love to be involved.

‘Pants on the Ground’ Guy: Show Me the Money!

“General” Larry Platt — the musical mastermind behind “Pants on the Ground” — hasn’t seen a dime since everyone and their mother started singing his tune … and now he’s lawyering up in the hopes of finally raking in some cash.

Platt tells TMZ he loves the countless parodies and remixes of his tune — but says since he’s the one who wrote the greatest song ever created about pants being on the ground … he’s the one who should be getting paid.

Problem is Platt never copyrighted the song … so he’s looking to hire an attorney to help him snag a slice of the “Pants” craze while he can.

Brand new ‘Idol’

For eight No. 1 seasons, the show’s bedrock was the good cop-bad cop repartee between judges Paula Abdul and Simon Cowell. It was almost impossible for the often teary-eyed Abdul to say a bad thing about any of the singers. Conversely, it was almost impossible for the condescending Cowell to say anything constructive about any of the singers. With Abdul’s unexpected departure from the show over salary demands, that dynamic, which both studio audience and at-home viewers ate up, is gone.

Anoop back at home tonight to sing

East Chapel Hill and University of North Carolina graduate, (and diehard Carolina basketball fan), Anoop Desai is scheduled to sing the national anthem before tonight’s 7:45 home basketball game against Virginia Tech.

TV broadcasts usually bypass the national anthem before college games, but Anoop may have a chance to make the TV tonight. He is best known as a participant on the 2009 edition of American Idol, where he placed in the top seven. Fox broadcasts American Idol and Fox Sports Network will televise tonight’s game on cable.

Desai is a one-man media frenzy this month. He joins forces with Marcus Ginyard for a joint interview in the January 2010 issue of Tar Heel Monthly.

‘Idol’ chatter is all about the judges as Ellen arrives

“The good thing about 36, it gives America a chance to vote on more people,” Frot-Coutaz says. “The downside is 36 is a lot of people to get to know. Due to the emotional engagement, you lose a little bit by doing 36. Where we came down on balance is we’re going to go with the emotional connection.”

Cowell, not surprisingly, disagrees with the change. “I prefer the wild-card pick.”

Says Cowell, “I’ve had conversations — as you know, there’s been speculation for months and months. We are continuing to talk to Fox, but right now the focus is just about this (season), and we’ll see where we end up.

“Whether I’m on it or off it, I promise you — and I really mean it — I think the show will flourish without me. I genuinely do,” he says. “I’m very grateful. I’ve had the best experience in my life since I’ve been on this show. I hadn’t spent that much time in America. I really like working in America. I like the American people, so I feel very at home there.”

White House Could Derail ‘Lost’ Premiere Plans

ABC insiders may soon want to tell President Obama to get “Lost.”

The White House is finalizing plans for this year’s State of the Union address and is said to be mulling two dates for the speech, according to a person familiar with the matter: Jan. 26 and Feb. 2.

So what’s wrong with that? Well, Jan. 26 would mean an interruption of “American Idol” — though Fox likely planned for that (or would simply tell the White House to take a hike, as it has before).

But Feb. 2? Other than the fact that it’s a holiday (Groundhog Day/TV MoJoe’s birthday), that’s the date ABC months ago staked out for the premiere of the final season of “Lost.”

‘Idol’ Chatter
Adam Lambert lost to Kris Allen in May on “American Idol.” Since then, some think Lambert’s career has been soaring higher, proving that he should have finished first. Now, could the guyliner-wearing rocker get a second opinion? In the Favorite Breakout Music Artist category, Lambert and Allen will square off, alongside such potential spoilers as Demi Lovato and Lady Gaga. The ultimate “Idol” opinion, however, could be expressed by another alumnus from a Simon Cowell-fueled talent contest: Susan Boyle.

Year after year, ‘Idol’ has a Southern accent

Some “American Idol” watchers were shocked in May when Kris Allen was crowned the winner of “American Idol’s” eighth season, beating out the flamboyant, creative Adam Lambert, who’d long been considered a favorite to win.

Yet in a way, the decision was unsurprising. Allen is from Arkansas; Lambert is from California. When it comes to “American Idol,” hailing from the South is as important as talent — something to consider when placing bets on who will win the ninth season of “Idol,” which kicks off on Fox on Jan. 12.

The end of ‘Idol’?

Simon Cowell will be leaving “American Idol” at the end of the season and starring in an American version of his British hit music show, “X Factor,” starting in 2011, according to reports.

Cowell, whose “Idol” contract expires in May and who has been in talks with Fox since last summer, is preparing to announce the new arrangement with Fox early next year, the Times Of London reports.

The future of “Idol” would be thrown into serious doubt if the show’s indisputable star leaves, it would appear.

Officials from Fox, “Idol” and Cowell’s own company yesterday refused comment.

Enjoy the new season of “Idol” because it will probably be the last.

No one in charge of the show — or of the network that airs it, Fox — is saying that.

But if reports that Simon Cowell will end his run on “Idol” after this season and bring his monster Brit hit “X Factor” to the US in 2011 are true, then it’s curtains for the TV show that defined the decade.

8. People Who Mattered – Adam Lambert

He was not the winner of American Idol. He was not even the first Idol runner-up to later make the thoroughly unsurprising announcement that he is gay. (See Aiken, Clay.) But Lambert came first in generating attention: that eyeliner, that voice ‘” ranging from a husky smolder to a granite-splitting glam-rock shriek ‘” and those glittered-out, magnetic performances. And there was the way Lambert treated his sexuality, which reflected the tricky path of gayness toward mainstream acceptance. Lambert never confirmed his being gay until finishing Idol, but, importantly, he never denied it. And unlike Aiken’s, his performances had an unmistakable erotic charge ‘” he was a man, not a man-child. After Idol, he infuriated some viewers with a raunchy, grinding show at the American Music Awards on ABC. Rather than apologize, he charged a double standard for gay men while keeping a smile on his face: when Joy Behar told him, on The View, that he was “not exactly a nice Jewish boy,” he quipped, “I’m a little different. My dreidel spins the other way.” Lambert ended 2009 out, proud ‘” and loud.

‘Dance’ finale expects a well-behaved Lambert

LOS ANGELES ‘” “So You Think You Can Dance” producer Nigel Lythgoe won’t predict which dancer will end up the winner on Wednesday’s season finale. But he’s confident that guest star Adam Lambert is going to be well-behaved.

Last month, Lambert’s racy performance during the American Music Awards on ABC drew the ire of the network, which contended that Lambert went further than he had during rehearsals. He was dropped by ABC from a “Good Morning America” appearance.

Lythgoe said he thinks Lambert may have enjoyed making a splash but will perform as rehearsed for “So You Think You Can Dance.” Lambert was last season’s “American Idol” runner-up to winner Kris Allen.

A hard homecoming? Jennifer Hudson visits Chicago for Christmas special

We all know what Jennifer Hudson can do, and she’ll no doubt do just that in her first, hourlong television special, “Jennifer Hudson: I’ll Be Home for Christmas,” which airs Monday.

ABC didn’t offer a preview of the special but did pass along three snippets: Hudson lip-syncing a gospeled-up “Silent Night,” while seated (rather oddly) alone in the bow of a boat passing under Chicago River bridges; Hudson in personable, girl-next-door mode ushering the cameras into her high school, Dunbar Vocational Career Academy on the South Side, and Hudson singing “Oh Come, All Ye Faithful” a cappella in front of a fireplace with four other women whom she eventually blows out of the room.

Isn’t is odd that TV programming executives, and human resources people from broadcast and cable networks are willing to accept these lesbian woman brave enough to “out” themselves, on the air… yet, if there was a man, who anchored a cable TV show, he may be afraid to say he was gay?

Danny Gokey nearly done recording debut

Danny Gokey laid down vocals this morning for the next to last song for his forthcoming debut. He’ll be done with his recording by the end of the week.

“Today, then Saturday, and I’m done,” Danny told me today at Nashville’s Starstruck Studios after making a couple runs through a song called Crazy Not To, written by Wendell Mobley, one of Rascal Flatts’ go-to songwriters, along with Marv Green and David Lee Murphy. “From that point, it’s all overdubs.”

So far, four songs from the album — likely to come out in March, though a release date and title have yet to be set — are finished and mixed: It’s Only, the ballad initially intended as Danny’s first single; My Best Days Are Ahead of Me, the uptempo tune eventually chosen as the lead single; Tiny Life, a Jeffrey Steele/Marv Green ballad that takes a big-picture view of life starting from the window of an airplane; and I Still Believe, which is essentially a statement of faith, penned by Kara DioGuardi, Michael Busbee and Barry Dean, with lyrics like, “I don’t really know what tomorrow will bring, but I’m open to all possibilities.”

The Idolator Interview: Ryan Tedder

The year’s almost over. Have you made amends with Kelly Clarkson after the whole ‘Halo’ /’ Already Gone’  drama?
Man, I haven’t talked to her, to be honest, since that went down. She has my email. Her attorney or somebody from her camp told somebody from my camp that she’s willing to work with me again. I was like, oh, thank you. I mean, I’m looking at your song right now and it’s #1 for the fourth week on Hot AC, so I’m sorry that I helped with that. I was absolutely livid when that whole thing came out because she had no idea what she was talking about when she said that.

One of the best albums you had a hand in was Blake Lewis’ first one, Audio Day Dream. It had to be disappointing that it didn’t take off like it should have.

But something weird happened on that project, and I can’t really go on the record saying exactly what it is. I have my suspicions. I feel like the label was in a transitional period when that album came out. They were switching heads of state, more or less, and that was one of those albums that had singles, I think, for days. I know it did. I know for a fact, because they researched the crap out of that album, and there were five songs that tested Top 10′”which is astronomical, as far as research goes.
