I've been a big fan of American Idol since it began, I started watching it during the 2nd season unfortunately I missed the 1st season when Kelly Clarkson won. Season 4 one of my favorite female country artists
June 28, 2011 On American Idol she wowed us. At Legendary Live she astounded us.
June 22, 2011 We're down to the Elite Eight on NBC's hit talent show THE VOICE and, after tonight, we'll be down to the Final Four. When the smoke clears following tonight's results show, there will be one member of each team standing: one representing Team Blake Shelton, one for Team Christina, one for Team Cee Lo Green and one for Team Adam Levine! So, just how does this crop of singers measure up to the Top Ten on American Idol? And which singers rocked it out on last night's show to earn their spots in the finals? And, most importantly, who has the best shot at becoming THE VOICE? Let's check in with our reality tv show expert, Steve Thompson!
Sure, they’re technically still kids, but one can’t help but say “aww!” at the newly released baby photos of ‘American Idol’ stars Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina.
The photos, released by ‘American Idol’s’ website, show the season 10 winner and runner-up looking so-adorable-it-hurts as they pose for the cameras. In Scotty’s case, we see him with his older sister, while Lauren poses in a cute frilly dress and bow.
June 2, 2011 For Scotty McCreery, it was close, but not close enough.
The 'American Idol' season 10 winner's debut single, 'I Love You This Big,' failed to crack the top 10 on this week's Billboard Hot 100 chart, instead coming in at number 11.
Scotty McCreery season 10 American Idol winner is coming out the gate strong with his single 'I Love You This Big' earning him the highest debut from a country newcomer since 1990! Congrats Scotty, that is great news from a nice young man! Check out this great video!
May 26, 2011 If you were watching American Idol last night, it may have appeared that Fox meteorologist Ron Rhodes won the title! Because of severe weather coverage and the threat of tornadoes and damaging straight line winds, Ron was on the tube alot during the Idol finale! But that didn't stop the proceedings at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles, where Scotty McCreery was crowned our latest champion! So, did American get it right? And will Scotty and runner-up Lauren Alaina have careers after Season 10 is forgotten? Moon, Chad and our Idol expert Steve Thompson take a look at the finale and the season that was . . .
May 26, 2011 After a record-setting 122.4 million votes, it was young country singer Scotty McCreery who was named the winner of 'American Idol' season 10.
The 17-year-old from Garner, NC, beat out young country singer 16-year-old Lauren Alaina to become the youngest 'American Idol' winner ever. He's also the fourth-consecutive male to win the reality-competition series, following David Cook, Kris Allen and Lee DeWyze. (The last female to win 'American Idol' was Jordin Sparks, in 2007.)
May 25, 2011 Tonight is the 10th season finale of American Idol and one thing is for sure . . . we're going to have a country star taking the title! Last night in the finale, my pre-season pick, Lauren Alaina, squared off against America's boy next door, Scotty McCreery! According to Idol's Facebook fan poll (posted BEFORE the show yesterday), Scotty was the winner by a country mile! But, last night, most agree that Lauren had the better night! So, what does our Idol expert Steve Thompson think? Who will be crowned our next American Idol tonight at the big finale?
May 24, 2011 Want some new music from Scotty and Lauren? Nashville's Mercury Records will release songs by both Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina this Thursday. Scotty's is called Love You This Big. We are told it doesn't sound like Josh Tur
May 20, 2011 For the first time in American Idol history, the final will be an all-country affair! Last night, Haley Reinhart was sent packing and paved the way for a showdown between Lauren Alaina and Scotty McCreery! So, who is the Idol going to be? As Randy Jackson said all season long, who has truly been "in it to win it?" I chatted with our Idol expert, Steve Thompson, this morning and chatted about Haley's departure and who has the best chance to being crowd America's Idol. To listen to the complete review and interview, click . . .
May 20, 2011 Though she put on an impeccable show Wednesday night, America ultimately decided they didn't want to see Haley Reinhart in the next week's finals.
The 20-year-old Wheeling, IL, native was booted from 'American Idol' late Thursday night, leaving Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina to battle it out for the season 10 crown, the first time the final two are country artists.
