American Idol 11 Top 9 – Songs from Their Own Idols – Plus Nicki Minaj and Scotty McCreery!

Press release from FOX! Next week, the Idols sing songs from their own Idols. Vague! But at least the theme will give them the opportunity to sing something current if they like.

Plus, Nicki Minaj will perform her latest tune “Starship” and Scotty McCreery will perform his new single, “Water Town Town”! I’m also hearing that Queen Kelly Clarkson will tape a performance next Thursday. WHOO HOO.

UPDATE: Dizzyfeet tweets, “next week they’re singing their #IDOL’s songs. Beyonce, Mariah, Miranda, Lifehouse, Daughtry, Led Zeppelin. Now that should be interesting?”
