Teletubby 134,072 Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 (edited) Carrie Underwood has replaced the I Kissed A Girl star on the judging panel. Underwood rose to fame for winning the fourth season of the ABC show. Underwood, who has sold around 85M records, is widely considered the most successful of the American Idol winners. She is expected to sit alongside Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan on the panel for Season 25. The Disney-owned network has been searching for a replacement for the last few months and Deadline heard that other names that were in talks before Underwood included Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber, something that Luke Bryan alluded, highlighting Pink and Meghan Trainor as well.

Real Panda 7,584 Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 2 country singers? I guess. Doesn't matter anyway, Idol hasnt produced an artist that charts/breakout star since Gabby Barrett Season 16 (Season 1 for Katy) which was 2018. Carrie is definitely a great choice but they should scrap Luke and get a representative for Pop/Rock music. 1 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benson Boone might n have not made It tò the final but i knew him from the new american Idol with Katy, and i think the auditiio. Was viral. These shows work differently now.

Didnt watch the most recent 4 seasons. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew She sailed in Sales, but She floors completely the competition. I swear seeing her you wouldnt know. Real loyal fans and being appealing tò the right crowd Is really important. Kelly clarckson Is this massive talent with massive hits but She ends up Always kinda seeming like some loser, lack of a Better term, of the situation. Poor thing. Kelly Just deserved even more, maybe cause She never really appealed tò american audience 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
