I attended the July 31, 2011, St. Louis, American Idols Live concert. To begin, I’ll say that I am probably not a typical fan. I have never seriously followed American Idol before this year. In past years, I stayed only informed enough to discuss the performers with my eighty-year old mother, who has loved the show from the start. However, this year, as I viewed some auditions online, I was introduced to Casey Abrams and was immediately hooked.

Nigel Lythgoe Wants to Change American Idol Voting System
Nigel Lythgoe met with advertisers in New York City today, and Zap2it.com caught up with him to discuss American Idol and the current season of So You Think You Think You Can Dance which has its Season finale Thursday August 11.
Nigel wants to change the Idol voting system to “one device, one vote”–whatever that means. This isn’t the first time Nigel has mentioned changing the voting. He’s also expressed an interest in allowing the judges more control over who gets sent home.
