American Idol is back with its Season 13 , which is set to premiere on January 15, 2014 on Fox. This season is predicted to be the greatest- ever – with its set of new judges, namely: Harry Connick Jr., Jennifer Lopez and Keith Urban.
Harry Connick Jr. has stated the obvious:
“American Idol is the platform for discovering superstars.”
It can be recalled that top album sellers Phillip Phillips, Carrie Underwood, Scotty McCreery, Kellie Pickler, and Kelly Clarkson were American Idol alumni.
The three judges, apparently, work well together so the next season of the American Idol Show would be without the unnecessary intrigues that has plagued the previous season where Nicky Minaj and Mariah Carey ‘clawed’ at one another.
Here are 10 of the contestants that made it to the Top 30 on American Idol 13:
Jeffrey Donovan Jones
Keri Lynn Roche
Briana Oakley
Majesty-Rose Ryan
John J. Fox
Justin Fira
Kenneth Gaddie
Danielle Sui Heikkila
Emmanuel Jay Zidor
