I can't believe the underdog took away the crown. Seriously though - this guy has an awesome recording voice and deserves to win. He'll be picked up by a hot label soon. I assure you. Well good luck Lee from the crew here at American Idol News.

Welcome to American Idols News

Simon is leaving Idol!! I can't believe it was his last day judging yesterday. How can we possibly have American Idol without Simon???  I bet he shows up on future contests often. You can't just let the Simon go.

We are getting ready for the new season to start.  This year will be a historic event for American Idol, because of the new shift in judge change.  We will bring you the latest news and gossip available as we cover this season.
