As American Idol heads to San Francisco for its auditions, newly reintroduced executive producer Nigel Lythgoe is there to talk about what the show is looking for this year. He's tired of winners like Lee DeWyze that stand there with a guitar and don't move. Nigel tells PressDemocrat.com:

"I would really like to see somebody who can sing and move. I'm so sick of watching people who are just wandering around. All of the stars of the show move. The next Michael Jackson might be out there."

While that's doubtful, Ryan Seacrest echoes Nigel's claims, saying that they're looking for the next Lady Gaga. Ryan says he wants a young act that's a spectacle on the stage. That's exactly what we want too! As many spectacles as possible please. Could Idol finally be casting the show correctly? We're not holding our breath.


Ryan Seacrest (pictured left, before plastic surgeries and after bad highlights) made an announcement that American Idol would not make an announcement about the new judging panel, possibly for weeks. This is obviously just a ploy to keep the show in the news for weeks as people speculate and continue to discuss the show even though we know the judging panel is Randy Jackson, Jennifer Lopez, and Steven Tyler. Just get it over with and say it already. Expect one of the new judges to "quit" sometime soon, only to be "begged to stay" and then "brought back," all in the name of keeping people talking. Boring.

Ryan Seacrest Says Tonight's Elimination Will "Raise a Few Eyebrows"

Posted by thefunnystone on Wednesday, May 05, 2010 at 6:03 PM EDT

We hear that Ryan Seacrest said on his radio show tonight that the results would again be shocking and that they would "raise a few eyebrows." Siobhan last week wasn't shocking at all to us since we were the ones saying she was in danger of going. Yet no one listened to us. So who knows if this is good news for Casey or not. The only really funny result would be the elimination of Golden Boy Lee. But otherwise, as long as Casey's safe, we don't give a crap who goes. His goat vibrato performance was a true classic.

So what do you think?

Who's going home tonight in 5th place?
Aaron Kelly
Casey James
Crystal Bowersox
Lee DeWyze
Michael Lynche
