I regularly watch american idol and am quite curious as to what the yellow sheet handed out to the contestants selected for hollywood says. does anyone know?? thanks!
Paula Abdul shouts, “You’re going to Hollywood!” and hands you a magical yellow piece of paper that represents travel and hotel accomodations all wrapped in one little xerox.

american idol Hollywood 2010 Season 9 Episode 10 – Round 2 part 1
GROUP ROUND! My favorite single episode of every “Idol” season. There’s always so much potential for disaster, so many clashing egos, and there is almost always immediate comeuppance for the in the group. It’s like instant karma.
The contestants who made it to the Hollywood round had to perform in groups on the second night, to the detriment of some hopefuls.
One hopeful runs roughshod over group, another drives off fellow singer
In the end 71 people escaped group round, which still leaves a LOT of room for culling next episode. Next week: the final Hollywood performances, more shocking cuts, and on Wednesday, The Chair.

Andrew Garcia sings an acoustic version of Paula Abduls Straight Up with an acoustic guitar. The judges dig it. Hes soulful, confident. Kara calls it genius, and says Paula would have loved it. She compares him to Adam, who she says would take a song and flip it.

Adam Lambert is our (theBestArts) favorite performer from American Idol 2009. This video contains excerpts from a number of Adam’s performances prior to American Idol (see song list below).
View the complete (and higher quality) versions of each of these videos (plus many others from Adam) at http://www.theBestArts.com/AdamLambert/default.aspx
Adam’s offical website is now up:
http://www.adamofficial.com
We have a website page that includes the full videos (not just audio) of each of Adam’s Idol performances:
http://www.thebestarts.com/adamlambert/idol/default.aspx
Most viewers were introduced to Adam during his Idol audition, when he sang 20 seconds of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody.” We think you’ll be impressed by the wide range of styles he performs in this montage.
Judges loved his Hollywood Week group performance of “Some Kind of Wonderful”. After his performance, new judge Kara told him “You’re an incredible singer. You are.” Later in the competition, Kara said “Your vocal technique and ability is outrageous… Who has a range like that?”
According to http://www.IdolRanges.com Adam has the widest full-voice range of any performer who’s appeared on the show. (Interestingly, he ties with Chris Daughtry.) In 2009, however, nobody else came close. Adam’s range was six notes or more wider than every other contestant. I was somewhat surprised to learn that Adam sang lower on the show than Anoop or Michael Sarver – and only one half step above Danny’s lowest note.
Adam is best known for his long-term role as understudy for Fiyero in the LA cast of “Wicked” and his role in the 2006 film “The Ten Commandments: the Musical” where he sang one solo.

How old do you have to be to try out for american idol? I am 13 and I wanted to try out for season 10. I am a good singer and wanted to try and get into the business. I know my chances of making it but, still, I like to sing and I thought maybe this would be a good career for me. I really want to try out.
Couldn’t hurt to go try the audition… remember that one season where a woman who was 50 or 60 was allowed to go sing for Simon and the judges?? Purely for entertainment. They never had any intention of sending her to Hollywood, because she was older than the age limit — but they put her on TV and listened to her sing…
If you have a parent who wants to take you and spend hours/days sitting and waiting just in case they MIGHT let you in for entertainment value, then it might be a fun experience!
Good luck!

I’ve went on the american idol website, but i dont know where to go to see where auditions are being held. Then, how do u sign up? I really want to find out how to know where the tryouts are!
Tryouts for this upcoming season have already happened. They happened back in August-September of 2009. The Hollywood stage has already taken place as well. The top finalists for this season have already been determined though for obvious reasons, they will not reveal the names just yet.
Point blank, if you wanted to audition for this season, you are out of luck. Auditions usually happen in late summer, early fall of that year, so keep an eye out fot them next year! Plus, there is a rumor floating around that there will be a new singing contest in America next year called The X-Factor, so keep an eye out for that as well.
