‘American Idol’: Season 11 Premieres With Siblings, Country Singers And Swag

Wed Jan 18 2012 by Becky Bain
And we're back! After the inaugural seasons of both The Voice and The X Factor, we've returned to the Original Don of singing reality competitions! (Shut up, Star Search, no one remembers you.)

For the Season 11 premiere, the show flew down to Savannah, Georgia to seek out some talent. And, lo and behold, there actually was some! More »
