Fun Fact: Nikki McKibbin's son auditioned for AI12

Tristen Langley, the now 15-year-old son of Nikki McKibbin (the 3rd place finisher of American Idol's inaugural season), auditioned for the upcoming season.  It is currently unknown as to whether or not he progressed beyond the initial round, commonly known as the "cattle calls".  If you've been a fan since 2002 like I have, you may remember the touching moment when Tristen, who was just 4 at the time, brought roses to his mother Nikki after her performance of Naked Eyes' "(There's) Always Something There To Remind Me".  Watch below and then tell us if you're feeling old.

 Here's Tristen recently covering "God Gave Me You" by Blake Shelton...

AI11 Top 13 Song Choices

Jessica Sanchez - "I Will Always Love You"
Phillip Phillips - "Superstition"

AI11 # Of Finalists & Week 1 Themes-By-Gender

For the first week of the finals, there will be separate themes by gender.   It doesn't make sense to do that unless one of each gender will be eliminated.  Thus, there's possibly going to be 4 wild card finalists for a Top 14 with an even gender ratio (7-7).  The themes for the males and females will be Stevie Wonder and Whitney Houston, respectively.

AI11 Top 12 Female Song Choices

Brielle Von Hugel - "(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay" by Otis Redding
Chelsea Sorrell - song by Carrie Underwood
Elise Testone - song by Adele *
Erika Van Pelt - "What About Love" by Heart
Haley Johnsen - "Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)" by The Eurythmics
Hollie Cavanagh - "Reflection" by Christina Aguilera
Jennifer "Jen" Hirsh - song by Adele *
Jessica Sanchez - song by Jennifer Hudson

*same song (decided by producers)

AI11 Top 13 Male Song Choices

It's incomplete but this is what we got (for now, at least).  If we learn more, we will post updates on Twitter as well as update this post.

Also note that Jeremy Rosado will probably perform last.

Adam Brock - "Think" by Aretha Franklin
Creighton Fraker - "True Colors" by Cyndi Lauper
Eben Christian Franckewitz - "Set Fire To The Rain" by Adele
Jeremy Rosado - "Gravity" by John Mayer or Sara Bareilles
Reed Grimm - "Moves Like Jagger" by Maroon 5 & Christina Aguilera

AI11's Top-Secret, Last-Minute Semi-Finalist(s)

Jermaine Jones is probably the 13th male semi-finalist (not 100% confirmed but quite certain).  There's possibly a 13th female semi-finalist too.  If so, it's likely Schyler Dixon (Colton's sister).

AI11 Semi-Finals Theme

The theme for top 24 week is producers' choice.  Each contestant created their own song list from which the producers chose, but ultimately songs were decided by producers.

AI11 Sing-For-Your-Life & Green Mile - Update

Yesterday and today, the top 42 contestants performed/are performing at Cirque du Soleil's Le Rêve Theater at the Wynn Las Vegas (pictured below).  Green Mile is being filmed tomorrow.

AI11 Sing-For-Your-Life & Green Mile

Tomorrow, the top 42 contestants will be arriving in California for the next round, which should last about a week in total.  However, there are a couple unexpected twists.  The first is that they will be returning to Las Vegas for Sing-For-Your-Life and performing at a venue where they just may get wet.  The second is that, unlike last season, they will not be making another trip next month for the Green Mile filming (as had been assumed).

AI11 Las Vegas Round Correction

The theme for the Las Vegas round was changed from Michael Jackson songs to 1950's music.  We suspect the producers changed their plans because we spoiled them.
