Eight of the Season 9 Top 10 Idols will participate in live fan chats direct from Los Angeles on Monday, June 14th, Wednesday, June 16th and Monday, June 21st.

Ustream is hosting the chats here:  http://www.ustream.tv/AmericanIdol. Check out the schedule below:

  • Monday, June 14 – 5:00pm PST: Michael Lynche, Tim Urban, Katie Stevens
  • Wednesday, June 16 – 5:00pm PST: Aaron Kelly, Siobhan Magnus, Andrew Garcia
  • Monday, June 21 – 4:00pm PST Casey James, Didi Benami, plus a surprise Idol guest!

Idol fans will have the opportunity to ask questions about the upcoming tour, future plans and pretty much anything else through through Ustream’s Social Stream.

Are you interested? I’ll post up a thread for each chat for those of you interested in participating.  (I’m interested…are you?)

    Sorry, not interested… unless Lee shows up :)

  • tinawina

    I might check out the one with Casey and Didi. I like both of them.

    Over at AI Official, it doesn’t break the chat participants down like MJ has. They probably want to con everyone into thinking they are all there so people will watch even if its only a few of them each session. Anyway, I wonder if in fact Lee and or Crystal will be there at some point too?

  • catira

    I am interested on Monday only for Timmeh!

    On Wednesday I am interested in Casey. And that´s about it.
    TIm and Casey were my favs always.

  • AIaddict

    I’ll be there just to see what they have to say but I do hope Lee shows up at some point.

  • wjmtv

    I’m always ready to hear what Casey has to say.

  • siyamnuwebenine

    9 more days and counting to hear Casey. But maybe I’ll hear some of the idols, they might mention Casey. Casey Casey Casey.

  • cookcricket

    I’m interested in reading these after the fact, but don’t think I’ll be available.

    I’m especially interested in what is going on w/ Casey, Siobhan and possibly Timmy. :)

    Too bad Crystal and Lee won’t be doing this. There were ind. ustreams last yr. right? These included Kris and Adam iirc. Maybe Crystal and Lee will have separate ones after these are done.

  • Cari

    I’m interested! Though I am disappointed they Top 10 aren’t doing this whole thing together :/ haha

  • flicker

    I’m definitely interested in what all these kids have to say, but I don’t think I’ll be home to watch the ustreams at 5:00.

  • Letitride

    Casey’s will be the only one I’ll be tuning in to hear.
    – I’m sure any big highlights of the others will get posted here.
    Lee and Crystal are probably far too busy to take time for this.

  • Trina

    Meh I would only be interested in Lee and Crystal and I’m assuming they’ll be occupied with their albums. Lee keeps tweeting about how he starts Monday on it, I bet Crystal will start this week too on hers.

  • bigjr6633

    Maybe I’ll ask why they were all so boring this year!

  • Esqt

    When can we have a sneak peek of them practicing together? Just a little bit…tiny bit…a speck, maybe? Media where art thou…

  • sylvanaire

    I’m interested in Casey, Siobhan, and possibly Didi. I liked her early in the season, but she didn’t live up to her promise on the show. I’m still interested in what she might do without the constraints of Idol. She showed a quirky singer/songwriter vibe that I really liked. It’ll be interesting to see if that was a fluke or if she really does go in that guitar-girl direction.

    Thanks for keeping on top of these things for us mj!

    If the timing was right, I’d listen in to whomever. And I’m with Esqt, love to see them in action. AI would do well to ‘leak’ some rehearsal footage. Buzz, buzz, buzz.
