The number 1 talent show in the world has just return this year with again, the search for new sets of talented singers all over the coast of united states.





American Idol opens it’s ninth season on January 12, 2010 on Fox with still hope for new ‘flavors’ of talents that would be renowned all over the world.



Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson and Kara DioGuardi will return as judges and like the format used during the fourth through seventh seasons, the top 24 semi finals format will be used and is expected to have its top 7 results on April 21, 2010.

This season may become one of the most remarkable for this will be Simon Cowell’s last season judging on American Idol and Ellen Degeneres would be joining the show as the new permanent fourth judge for the rounds held at the CBS Television City for Hollywood Week and thereafter, onto live shows after the unresolved contract negotiation with judge Paul Abdul.

In addition, Simon Cowell announced in January 2010, shortly before the ninth season premiere, that he would be leaving American Idol after the season in preparation for the production of an American version of his talent show The X-Factor.

While Victoria Beckham, Mary J. Blige, Shania Twain, Katy Perry, Avril Lavigne, Joe Jonas, Neil Patrick Harris and Kristin Chenoweth were brought in to star as guest judges during the auditions phase.
