HOT STORY: American Idol Gets a Fourth Judge!

Next January, American Idol will return back to TV for its incredible eighth season! But this year, there are going to be a few changes to the show. With auditions about to begin in a matter of days, Ryan Seacrest has released word that American Idol will be getting another judge to join Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson. She is award winning songwriter and producer Kara DioGuardi.

Kara has done may work for many previous Idols including Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood. She also has worked with the hit makers Britney Spears, Hilary Duff, Gwen Stefani, among many others. Reactions so far have been mixed, and Paula released a statement saying she doesn't know how the audience will be accepting her. American Idol resumes in January 2009 on FOX.

Katherine McPhee featuring Elliot Yamin ~ Real Love (New Song)

Here is the brand new track from Kat McPhee and Elliot Yamin, two Idol contestants who made it real close to winning, but lost to Taylor Hicks. This is a real nice, soul-pop track for Randy Jackson's new album, ''Randy Jackson's Music Club Volume 1", which will also feature Paula Abdul's new comeback song! Hopefully, this will be on her new album, which is supposed to be out by early 2009. This can be the perfect first single! Enjoy!

Jordin Sparks featuring Chris Brown ~ No Air (Video Premiere)

Wow! Another American Idol video premiere today! First Paula Abdul, and now it's Jordin's turn. Her new video is for her single "No Air" featuring label mate Chris Brown. This is such a beautiful song, and I love it! And now I love the video even more! Jordin looks gorgeous in this video, and her and Chris make a real cute couple! I personally think this is a better video than "Tattoo", but you can judge and see for yourself...

Paula Abdul ~ Dance Like There's No Tomorrow (Video Premiere)

After 11 years of waiting, Paula Abdul's newest video has been released for her new single "Dance Like There's No Tomorrow". I absolutely love this song, and this is truly a 'comeback'! The video is ok, but I'm really feeling the red and fellow American Idol judge Randy Jackson playing the guitar, lol. Speaking of him, the song was produced by him and will be featured on his album,''Randy Jackson's Music Club, Volume 1''. Good luck Paula with your comeback!

Paula Abdul ~ Dance Like There's No Tomorrow (New Song)

American Idol judge, Paula Abdul has finally returned to the singing scene! She hasn't released new music in a very long time, mostly because of old age and taping Idol. But, she has released a new single "Dance Like There's No Tomorrow", as a part of co-judge Randy Jackson's new album ''Randy Jackson's Music Club, Volume 1''. The song actually leaked last Friday on Ryan Seacrest' Los Angeles radio show, but it was only a snippet so I decided to wait until today when the HQ version was released to publish the post. I've never really been a fan of Paula and I didn't really care about her until I heard this amazing song! It's very retro and something we all need to come back! She has another job well-done! Good luck in the future Ms. Abdul!
