“American Idol” Goes to Chicago, Shania Twain Is Guest Judge

Tonight “American Idol” took their auditions to Chicago, where only 13 people received golden tickets to Hollywood. After the show, plenty were tweeting on the slim pickings in the Windy City:

    Mickietha Ugh.. I wish American Idol showed more of tha good singers…its like tha bad ones are funny and all, but damn isn’t this a talent search??
  2. Anthony Moses
    MisterPine American Idol in Chicago may have lacked much talent but I actually really liked a couple of them. Shania Twain wasn’t a bad guest either!
  3. Maggie Lili Ellis
    gigiellis American Idol in Chicago produced only 13 gold tickets out of thousands of contestants.Is it something in the air in Chicago?
  4. Jenni Leeds
    Bebopalicious American Idol just got really scary. And I’m not talking about Simon’s fake tan. Ouch.

    ZEvans1 American Idol… Cancel your show now. The “talent” meter has drained. Your not going to find anyone that you haven’t found in the past 10yr


One of Chicago’s most colorful characters was Brian Krause, who channeled “Tiny Tim” in his audition. The Twitterverse was busy ridiculing the former military man after his performance, a far different response than General Larry Platt received last week with “Pants On The Ground.”

    beccsLS “I just feel like slipping into a nice warm bubble bath and soaking my thoughts.” – Tiny Tim guy on American Idol. Hahaha
  2. Sookie Stackhouse

    azsings So the guy on American Idol tonight who sang the Tiny Tim song sounded just like him! I think that was the problem…


Shania Twain was tonight’s guest judge and the consensus on among “Idol” fans on Twitter was that Twain should be a permanent addition to the panel!

  1. Kerry Newsome

    ShaneDeWayne After watching ‘American Idol’ with guest judge Shania Twain, I was hoping to hear her tell a contestant, “That Don’t Impress Me Much.”

  6. Samantha Churchill
    NewfieGirl93 I thought Shania Twain done an amazing job judging American Idol 2Night! She’s such a flirt! ;) hehe.


Twain’s clear favorite was John Park, who got her a little tongue tied with his Sam Cooke tune. Twitterville was in favor of Park as well, even going so far as digging up his Twitter username (@j_tak) and tweeting their support to him:

  • the things is that they didn't focus much on shania - but more on useless contestants (the life and blood of the show?) singing like crap! :D
