Alexis Grace Eliminated From 'American Idol'
LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Pint-sized Memphis crooner Alexis Grace was kicked off "American Idol" on Wednesday night, one place shy of the Top 10 tour group.
The mother of one was placed in the bottom three, alongside country-loving Michael Sarver and teenager Allison Iraheta, but it was Alexis who received the worst news of all.

American Idol: Matt Giraud Gave A “Solid Performance” With ‘Human Nature’
A lot of last night’s American Idol contenders chose some of Michael Jackson’s more obscure numbers and Matt Giraud was no different. He chose to sing ‘Human Nature’ and whilst he didn’t blow me away in the style of Adam Lambert I would agree with Simon when he called it a “solid performance”.

Whatever the reason, the judges turned on the nice last night...

Paula Abdul Shocked at American Idol News
With the exciting news that broke last week that Ellen DeGeneres is going to be the fourth judge on the next season of American Idol, Paula Abdul was said to be very upset at being permanently replaced.

The sound of Kara DioGuardi’s speaking voice and the sound of my soul howling in agony created constant cacophony in my living room during American Idol ’s eighth season. Week after week after infuriating week, the “fourth-judge” deflated the high expectations I had initially held for her, dubbing “Cryin’” an “early Aerosmith” track, mislabeling the legendary Studio 54 as “Studio 57,” and worst of all, sticking to the...
