Here’s a link to the AP story of the Idol eliminations this week and recap of some of the details.
This was the most important section of information for me:
Thursday’s show also featured a performance by third-season winner Fantasia Barrino, who announced she will star as Celie in the Oprah Winfrey-produced musical “The Color Purple” on Broadway. She will join the show April 10.
One bright, young hopeful to watch is LaKisha Jones, a 27-year-old single mother from Flint, Mich. “I’m very tempted to say to 23 people, `Book your plane ticket home,’” Cowell said on Wednesday’s show, after her commanding take on “And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going.”
(Jones isn’t going anywhere — not for a while, at least.) “American Idol,” now running three times a week, will return to a twice-weekly schedule next month for the elimination of the final dozen.
