Paula Abdul may be headed to Sin City! Apparently, Paula has been in serious talks to bring a revue-style show to the strip. The New York Post reports that Paula is currently shopping the idea to The Venetian, The Wynn, and The Hilton Las Vegas.

We heard this rumor months ago, but the talks haven't gotten serious until now, since she's no longer returning to American Idol. Paula also reportedly considered a Vegas show back in 2006 with the Silverton Hotel,...
One of American Idol’s all-time favorites, Melinda Doolittle, is slowly becoming a household hame. Her new soulful song, “It’s Your Love,” is headed straight to the dance floor with three distinct mixes! Like every song on her debut solo album, Coming Back to You, “It’s Your Love” is a bold, belting number. Three of the hottest remixers/DJs in the world, Jason Nevins, Mike Rizzo, and Smashmode have each worked the song into a dance-friendly club anthem.

Melinda says, "I am so...
Broadway seems to be where a lot of past Idol contestants end up at one point or another. And the latest Idol alum to take her act to the stage is Syesha Mercado.

Syesha wowed us during American Idol season 7, and made it to the #3 spot in the competition behind David Archuleta and David Cook. We haven’t heard much from her since then, except for the fact that she’s reportedly working on a pop/R&B album.

"Everyone's been asking me what it's going to sound like. It will be...
Carrie Underwood will be heading back to where she started—the American Idol stage! If you watch the show, you know Carrie’s version of Motley Crue’s “Home Sweet Home” plays each time a contestant is sent home.

Now you’ll get a chance to see Carrie perform the song live on the Idol finale show, when either Kris Allen or Adam Lambert will be sent home, and the other one will be crowned the next Idol!

Carrie, in conjunction with 19 Recordings, Sony...
Paula Abdul is back with new music and with her signature old moves. The American Idol judge switched roles from judging to singing when she performed "I'm Just Here for the Music" on the Idol stage.

Many criticized Paula for lip-synching during her performance and sporting a skimpy outfit that wasn’t age appropriate. Sources who were at the show taping reveal to Hollyscoop that she had two takes during her taping.

Hollyscoop caught up with Paula Abdul at the “Guide...

This will be Jennifer’s first time back on American Idol...
