Gazing into the full-length mirror left in the back of the room by a P.A. on a lunch break, Idol judge, Steven Tyler, accidentally took his own reflec...
I haven't been overly impressed with many of the auditionees this season, but the singers in St. Louis were generally cute, commercial and easy to listen to ... Missouri might be the state to beat.
The "Idol" Portland auditions focused more on the rejects than the golden ticket winners, but we managed to scrape the barrel to find the five most memorable auditions of the week. Will these singers make it through Hollywood Week?
The more "talent" shows we get each season, the less "talented" is each slate of competitors forced upon our screens, airwaves and eardrums. We are spreading our talent too thinly across too many shows and it's doing long-lasting damage to the genre.

Lost was a show that required a weekly recap to go over all the hints and clues. Flashforward six years later to the present day and the Internet has a recap for nearly every single show on TV. How did this happen?
Becoming a singer doesn't require you to have a record deal with Hollywood Records or winning record deals on shows like American Idol -- I call myself a singer because it's my passion.
