The original music show phenomenon, AMERICAN IDOL returns for its farewell – and 15th – season in January 2016. Featuring host Ryan Seacrest and judges Jennifer Lopez, Keith Urban and Harry Connick, Jr., the farewell celebration will pay tribute to the past 14 seasons, the amazingly talented contestants and the millions of fans who called, tweeted, texted and championed their IDOLS.
Eventually the competition is whittled down to two finalists who compete for a major recording contract and the AMERICAN IDOL title. Past winners Kelly Clarkson, Ruben Studdard, Fantasia Barrino, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Hicks, Jordin Sparks, David Cook, Kris Allen, Lee DeWyze, Scotty McCreery, Phillip Phillips, Candice Glover, and Caleb Johnson as well as fan-favorites Jennifer Hudson, Adam Lambert, Chris Daughtry, and Katharine McPhee, have all become household names and made their marks on the recording industry.

Can't wait to find out what his part will be in the finale..........also just a reminder don't forget to vote on web site http://www.at40.com/pages/who-will-be-number-1 site:at40.com HAC .. someone has been voting all day long this morning, and yesterday was much the same..Robert Thomas is fighting for the lead
this clip always makes me cry . . . . . it's a good thing
Will Adam even be in the country during most of AI???
It will be great to see Adam, but quite honestly, I'll be glad when AI is entirely over.
He should be in this country at the finale with no problem. Really nice to see that Sauli is in CA right now, and has already posted being up in Runyon Canyon. Looks like Adam went with him.
We can always count on Anne Marie for the Sauli and Adam updates.
I'm looking forward to seeing Adam on Idol this year. I hope it is a great final season.
Anne Marie, Adam is in NYC. See the pic with Marlee Matlin plus this tweet

Tonight I was standing on stage @ the Brooks Atkinson theatre next to @adamlambert tonight I'm 😳😳😳 thank you SO MUCH @CastilleJoshua ❤️❤️
It seems that Adam attended the Deaf West Theater production of Spring Awakening on Broadway, starring Marlee Matlin and other deaf artists. Not unexpected that Adam still loves theater and supports that community. Love that he is taking so many side trips to enjoy NYC culture while touring, NYC is especially festive and beautiful during the holidays and probably making his "life on the road" more fun.You can tell that he loves his life right now!
BTW - if anyone watches the Voice, the winner Jordan Smith did a rendition of "Somebody to Love" on the semi-finals that IMO gave homage to Adam. He had to have studied Adam's performance on YouTube.
