Judges and Ryan Seacrest on What They’ll Miss Most About ‘American Idol’ – Keith Urban spoke next. “For me, the thing that has always set Idol apart is its particular spirit and heart. When it’s been at its best, as I’ve watched over the years, that’s the thing that has permeated it. It’s really an intangible quality. The bittersweet part of this season is the heart and spirit is the strongest it’s ever been. It feels like it’s right back front and center, and it’s because of these guys, everybody behind the scenes and the intent and spirit of the show. That’s what I’m going to miss.” As the host of Idol for all 15 years, Seacrest had a slightly different point of view. “For everyone watching, it’s a television show. For me, it’s part of my life. There are so many faces behind the scenes and on camera that we get to see on a regular basis that are like family now. I don’t really remember life without coming to work here. Saying goodbye is going to be difficult.” – Read more at Billboard
