Since hearing Buffalo and The Wasp, we had a feeling we knew who would be beneath the masks. It wasn’t surprising to find out that we would need to wait until The Masked Singer season 12 finale to find out who were beneath all the masks.

The final saw the return of Rita Ora, who had to miss the semifinals due to an illness. She came back at the right time, as she share her own guesses with the other panelists to figure out who were beneath those final masks.

This season certainly brought some big an exciting names. There’s no doubt that some of them took us by surprise, but there are always a couple of masks we just know.

Judges Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and Luke Bryan, and host Ryan Seacrest, have announced the American Idol season 22 premiere date.

As Aerosmith get ready to embark on a farewell tour, it’s no secret that guitarist Joe Perry and singer Steven Tyler have had their share of discord over the years. Such was the case around 2009, when Perry was seeking out a potential replacement for the band’s iconic vocalist.

In a new interview with The Dave Rickards Podcast, singer Chris Daughtry revealed that he was one of the candidates that Perry approached to take over for Tyler, who at the time entered rehab for painkillers and then emerged to become a judge on American Idol.

Frustrated with the lack of Aerosmith activity, Perry sought out possible replacements for Tyler. Over the years, it has been reported that Perry may have reached out to such singers as Sammy Hagar, Chris Cornell, Paul Rodgers, and Billy Idol.

Daughtry at the time was a few years removed from his fourth-place finish on...

Former American Idol judge Simon Cowell was known for his zingers directed toward the contestants, but some went beyond funny to downright insulting. Simon was one of the original judges, along with Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson, and quickly became the villain of the group. From 2002-2010, he served on the judging panel, helping to discover eventual superstars such as winners Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, Fantasia Barrino, and Jordin Sparks, and finalists Jennifer Hudson, Chris Daughtry, Katharine McPhee, and Adam Lambert.

Although Simon has a knack for finding superb undiscovered talent, he also has a reputation for his biting commentary. Therefore, when he does praise a contestant, it means a lot. However, Simon is remembered more for his insults toward the contestants than his positivity. As American Idol has evolved into a kinder, gentler version of itself in its ABC incarnation with judges Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and Luke Bryan,...

Fan footage has now surfaced of Hale’s cameo, which came at the beginning of Daughtry’s encore. The crowd lights up when they hear the song’s iconic synth intro — cueing Chris Daughtry and Hale to take the stage in unison.

Daughtry had been performing the song as part of their encore prior to the London show, but this was the first time Lzzy and Chris duetted the song live together. The duo is spot-on vocally, mirroring the strong chemistry heard on the studio recording. The band is also airtight as it delivers a heavier rendition of the original tune.

Where have you gone, American Idol? A nation turns its lonely eyes to … wait, seriously? You’re still on?

Believe it or not, it’s true. Idol has survived long enough to see its 20th birthday. When it debuted on June 11, 2002, the TV singing contest was the blockbuster that promised to define the new pop-culture era. Like the country it’s named after, American Idol is still technically on the map, but it’s staggering in a punch-drunk haze of crushed dreams and betrayed hopes, and the nagging sense that...
