The Season 9 Top 10 Idols Perform Live on the M&M’s Stage – VIDEO
Thanks, Aaron and Tony for the photo!
UPDATE: Check out this giant M&M http://tweetphoto.com/25215910. OMG SO CHEESY! Lulz.
2nd Update: Lee DeWyze and Crystal Bowersox opened the show with “Falling Slowly”. First trip to New York for both. After some technical difficulties, Casey James and Michael Lynch sang “Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman.” Finally, Lee sang “The Boxer”–the rest of the Idols joined him on stage for the “lai la lai’s”…and that was it. Damn. I was hoping for a pointy pose!
@thekatiestevens tweeted that the concert was short due to safety reasons. According to @andrewagarcia, “they were supposed to let us all perform a song but they cut it, sorry, wish I could of played:(“
At 12:30 pm ET today, the Top 10 Idols will perform together on the M&M’s stage, to promote the new M&M pretzel, at Herald Square in New York City.
It’s the kids’ first performance since the finale, and likely the last time you’ll see them together unless you buy a ticket to their upcoming American Idols Live tour, beginning on July 1.
You can watch Lee Dewyze, Crystal Bowersox, Casey James, Michael Lynche, Aaron Kelly, Siobhan Magnus, Tim Urban, Katie Stevens, Andrew Garcia and Didi Benami live as the performance streams on the M&M Facebook page.

I hope Mike and Casey do NOT do that song on tour. They do it well and it was nice the first few times I heard it but really guys, please not on the tour…
I’d be surprised if they did it on the tour. My guess is we got two duets because that was the way to get the most Idols onstage in the least amount of time. No other reason.
Oh well. Some days things don’t work out exactly like they should, especially if the event is put on by a local radio station. I did giggle quite a bit, though. Lee and Crystal were cute. Mike and Casey were cute, too. The La-La-La-Las had me LMAO. So, at least they all got a free trip to NYC.
Hilarious!
So, has anyone else noticed that Lee really never wants to leave a stage? He just wants to keep singing and playing his guitar. I love that.
Wish Lee could sing more. He sounded great! Can’t wait to hear more from him. I guess I just have to make do with his homecoming videos in the meantime. I’m so glad he won!
I thought the Disney Dog and Pony photo ops were bad… the big MnM leaves me speechless.
Don’t care for the giant M & M’s thing, but loved hearing Casey and Mike again. They were my 2 favorites. I would not mind hearing the song at all again, especially with Casey’s exquisite guitar playing, <3. Btw, today St. Petersburg, FL, is doing a homecoming for Big Mike. The mayor and officials are supposed to give him a key to the city, and among other places, he will be going to his alma mater, Gibbs High School. Our local FOX affiliate, with the well-known Charley Belcher, is supposed to be covering it.
