*Watch this space for updates*
The American Idol 9 Top 10 are speaking with the press out in Los Angeles today. There will be tons of interviews and photos coming, so watch out.
The kids performed an acoustic version of their group number for the press. This year, they’re singing “My Life Would Suck Without You” by Kelly Clarkson. I like that…keeping it in the family!
4th Update: Adding Zap2it.com video, Lee DeWyze and Andrew Garcia interview (read more). Short Katie clip (read more)
3rd Update: From Zap2it.com – Embedded longer video after the jump. The Idols did two takes of MLWSWY.
There was some confusion over where everyone would stand for the impromptu performance. Everyone wanted to stand next to Siobhan Magnus, but in the end, Lee DeWyze got the honor. (We guess there are some benefits to being the “American Idol” winner, though everyone swears he gets treated the same as the rest of them.)
2nd UPDATE: I have two versions of “My Life Would Suck Without You” after the jump. Check out Lyndsey Parker’s take HERE. Plus, a little snip of the Idols goofing around on “Blister in the Sun”
The kids certainly need more rehearsal, but I remember last year’s “Don’t Stop Believing”, sung with only piano accompaniment, also being a little rough around the edges.
UPDATE: Added interview with Good Day LA
Photos and VIDEO after the JUMP…
