Selah Sue, where have you been all of my life? Holy hell I'm FREAKIN' out over how talented this 23 year old singer/songwriter from Belgium is. Blending together pop, folk, soul and reggae, Selah Sue is different from anything I've heard in a while, and different is definitely a good thing. While her self-titled debut album has been out internationally since March, she's releasing it

Patrons from the very young to the young at heart filled the 1st Mariner Arena in Baltimore, Maryland on Thursday night (August 11) to see the top 11 contestants on American Idol season 10 rock the house. Although the crowd ended up with just a top 10 - runner-up Lauren Alaina was stricken with bronchitis and couldn't perform - the concert was still a two-hour party with James Durbin, Naima Adedapo, Jacob Lusk, Casey Abrams, Thia Megia, Pia Toscano, Stefano Langone, Paul McDonald, Haley Reinhart , and winner Scotty McCreery entertaining everyone with exciting group [...]

James Durbin steals the show during the San Jose tour stop.
The top 11 from Season 10 of Idol rocked Utah’s Maverik Center last night, as they began the 2011 American Idols Live! tour . The evening started with a bang thanks to a performance of "Born This Way" from Naima Adedapo and the AI girls. In addition to Pia Toscano's "This Time" debut , fans were also treated to "House Of The Rising Sun" from Haley Reinhart, Thia Megia's "Who Says", and heavy metal lover James Durbin's rendition of Neon Trees' "Animal". And if Scotty McCreery and Idol runner up [...]
The American Idol finale wasn’t just all about performances last night. There were a few segments thrown in there two. They did a sort of roast video for the judges with Randy Jackson’s showing how many times he said people are “in it to win it”; Steven Tyler’s showing lots of clips of him saying crazy things, inappropriate things and curse words; and Jennifer Lopez’s just showing how much everyone loves her. One of my two favorite segments came in the form of a video in which contestants talked about being eliminated, with James Durbin and Casey James arguing over [...]

Just in case you didn't get the memo from Ryan Seacrest, last night's elimination round of American Idol was to have two contestants voted off. And the episode didn't disappoint—well, unless you were fans of either Naima Adedapo or Thia Megia. One surprise, however, came when the usual group performance was ditched in favor of the Top 11 contestants splitting into duet partners, trios and quartets. Read on! The first duet came from Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina , who took on Idol alum Carrie Underwood [...]
Even though she’s been a bit rusty in previous episodes, Lauren Alaina is apparently slowly but surely getting back in the contest in full force. For last evenings’ Motown Records night Lauren Alaina chose to perform The Supremes’ “You Keep Me Hangin’ On”. She did a good job with it apparently and the judges of course agreed on the matter with Jennifer Lopez saying the following about her performance: “You look amazing tonight! This is the most beautiful we’ve seen you on the show. Amazing, you looked great!” It looks like Lauren Alaina is probably going to be going up [...]

Pia (11 points), James (10), Scotty (9) and Stefano (8) were [...]
