American Idol Audition
It's all change on american idol for 2010, with the ninth season of the show featuring new judges and missing some regular faces. Paula Abdul isn't a part of the show, having signed up to move to the North American version of the UK talent show X-Factor. Her place has been taken by a number of guest judges, with one in particular that will turn into a permanent fixture on the show.

Ellen DeGeneres announced on her own 'Ellen' show that she would be starring as Paula's replacement, and will most likely be joining the current panel with Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson and Kara DioGuardi. We're also going to be seeing a number of guest judges, with the likes of Kristin Chenoweth, Shania Twain, Mary J. Blige, Joe Jonas, Victoria Beckham, Neil Patrick Harris and Katy Perry!

This year's auditions have been held all over the states as usual, in towns like Denver, Orlando, L. A. , Atlanta, Chicago, Arlington and Foxsborough. A number of potential idols are already beginning to stand out, with performances from Vanessa Wolfe, Mallorie Haley and Keia Johnson having hit a specific high note with the judges at the Atlanta and Boston auditions. During the Chicago auditions, one or two performers in particular stood out like Paige DeChausse, Marcus Jones, Justin Ray, Keith Semple, John Park, Angela Martin, Charity Vance and of course, the smashing Katelyn Epperlys audition.

The Idol fame machine is working too, with one actual audition having found massive audiences online. The performance in query was from one General Larry Platt, a 62-year-old vet from Georgia, singing his song'Pants on the Ground'.

unfortunately for a large amount of Idol fans, this can be the last season with Simon Cowell. Having come to the end of his contract, Cowell appears to have made a decision to move on from American Idol, and rumination is rife as to who will replace him. Names such as Elton John, Quincy Jones, Gladys Knight and George Cloony are being thrown around, but the particular replacement is sure to be kept a heavily guarded secret for a bit yet.

once more this year, American Idol is allowing contestants to use their own instruments during performances. This has been featuring heavily on the show for the past couple of seasons, and whilst it's not to everybody's tastes, it does add an aspect to the North American Idol auditions that has been lacking over time.

Also this year we'll be seeing the return of 'Idol Gives Back' on American Idol. It's intended to be held during the last seven result show, and will most likely be showing videos of all the great things American Idol is doing to help folks globally. The date for the show is at present set as April the 21st.

The format of the show stays the same this year - the initial few weeks concentrate on the assorted city auditions, giving back-stories to the contestants and letting us all get to know them. The shoot for the contestants during this stage is to get their'Golden Ticket' and move on to the next phase, Hollywood. During the Hollywood auditions, the pace is stepped up and those who've made it are expected to perform to their best. Twenty-four are selected, and these American Idol finalists move on to the show correctly. They then contend for the judges and audiences favor, facing weekly'votes' over who stays and who goes home!

ultimately, we'll again be seeing everyone's favorite Ryan Seacrest, presenting american idol with his usual flair and unique style. Seacrest is also rumored to be in line for Cowells role on the series ; however it's been mentioned that he favors his current presenter's position and wouldn't like to take on the judges chair.
