Though American Idol fanatics (both enthusiastic and begrudging) may whine and moan about the mediocrity and general meh-ness of Season 9 – us included – we can’t help but get revved up for the tenth season of the singing competition after watching two new promos. Even if we wind up with another winner whose record debuts with a whimper instead of a bang, it’s all about the exciting journey of finding him or her, isn’t it? Okay, then at least watching Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez interact should be entertaining enough to tune in. (We hope so, anyway.) Watch two new promos below.
“You’re so sweet!” exclaims Lopez upon hearing a contestant say that she’s standing in front of all her personal idols. “She’s through, I don’t need to hear a thing!” Way to accurately judge somebody on their singing ability, J-Lo!
And here’s one more, focusing on the contestants (and featuring Bruno Mars’ “Just The Way You Are”):
We know it’s all hip and cool to rag on American Idol while it seems to have plateaued, but be honest: are you excited (or at least curious) to tune into the tweaked Season 10 this January?
Lets be honest that second promo was nothing special and the first one was just “meh”
I am mainly interested to see the new judges interact with one another, I notice despite being the only remaining judge from the original round-up Randy still doesn’t get the Middle spot (LOL)
Ill check it out in the beginning cause I’m sure this season will ” have there best contestant EVER” but I’m definitely holding out for X factor in the long run
I am SO on board with Simon. To me this show is done, if not for its choices of judges, then for the pure fact that the track record of Idols.
One reason I WILL be watching the NYC auditions, is because they were held in Jersey City at the Restaurant/Event Space i was married in. For that to be the reason I am tuning in after being such a faithful viewer the past 10 years is pretty pathetic.
***Sorry…’the pure fact that the track record of Idols BLOWS.’
JLO’s star was certainly dimming before idol (back up plan tanked, label dropped her). So idol was her only way to remain a star. She’s stale as they come and her voice is so nasal it’s crazy (speaking AND singing voice) I would rather watch paint dry then watch this season
