On tonight’s American Idol finale we will be seeing confetti raining down on either Lauren Alaina or Scotty McCreery. Last night’s country showdown slowed down the typical Idol finale pace but still had the felling of an old western. With cowboy boots and twangs being thrown down all over the place, the one left standing after the dust settled seemed to be young Alaina. (Who triumphantly made it through the fight with voice tied behind her back.) Though, the charm of Scotty’s Elvis-like voice should not be underestimated, as we’ve found out. We will all see who reins victorious and becomes American’s next American Idol, tonight on Fox at 8/7c.
Rumors of tonight’s performances are flying, but here are a few of the more likely conclusions. Duets will be sung by Lauren Alaina and Carrie Underwood and Scotty McCreery and Tim McGraw. Lady Gaga will be singing “Edge of Glory,” and Bono and the Edge will be performing tunes from their Broadway show Spiderman. Pia Toscano, Casey Abrams, Haley Reinhart, James Durbin, Jack Black, Tony Bennett, Judas Priest and Marc Anthony are also rumored to be making appearances.

So, what is next for the Idol Junkie? The Voice, The X Factor, Do You Think You Can Dance? Does the thought of life without Idol leave you with a whole in your soul bigger than an “OMG There’s No More Oprah” anxiety attack? What is the Idol addict to do between seasons? Well American Idol Tour of course. This summer the 11 top performers of the season’s show will head out on what is sure to be a grueling tour for the amateurs. They will play 46 shows between July 6th and Septempber 9th, hitting every major venue from here to Topika.
Check out Lauren Alaina and Scotty McCreery performing the duet “I Told You So” earlier in the season. Good luck to both of the finalists.
