audition, she had also never performed before she stepped on the stage in front of judges Katy Perry, Luke Bryan, and Lionel Richie. The 18-year-old native of Boone County, West Virginia, shared the story of her difficult childhood, and being raised by her grandparents. Kelsie noted that her grandmother sadly died in 2021 after suffering complications from COVID-19. Noting that her grandmother «pushed her» to try things, Kelsie decided to «step outside» of her comfort zone in her honor.

It’s always a risk for an American Idol contestant to take on one of the judge’s songs — but sometimes, it pays off. Kezia “Lady K” Istonia brought Katy Perry to tears with her cover of “Wake Awake” during the Sunday, March 6, episode.

Keslie Dolin will bring you to tears.

Huntergirl definitely impressed the “American Idol” judges during Sunday’s 20th season premiere.

American Idol is upping things for the 20th season of the show, and introducing Platinum Tickets for those auditioning for the show.

Lionel Richie has the kind of music career only few can dream about.  The 72-year-old legendary singer/songwriter rose to fame in the 70s as a founding member of the band Commodores before venturing off on a solo career. His first three albums sold over 30 million copies and spawned such mega hits as “You Are,” “”All Night Long (All Night)” and “Say You, Say Me.” While recording his own music, he also wrote/produced such chart-toppings singles as Kenny Rogers’ “Lady,” “Endless Love” featuring Diana Ross and “We Are the World” with Michael Jackson. His talents brought him four Grammys, an Academy Award nomination and the Songwriters Hall of Fame’s highest honor, the Johnny Mercer Award. Fans can now see him as a judge on American Idol, as he returns for his fifth season on Sunday (Feb. 27).

Things do get heated sometimes between the “American Idol” judges.

Dave Grohl failed to name Foo Fighters songs during a game on The Late Late Show With James Corden this week.The musician, who was joined on the talk show sofa by actress Hilary Duff, was tasked with guessing which songs the show’s host Corden was attempting to play on keyboard – despite him not knowing how to play the piano.A visibly frustrated Grohl failed to to guess a single song, shouting at one point: “Just play the fucking song, man!” You can watch his attempt at ‘James That Tune’ in the clip below.The first song ended up being Foo Fighters’ ‘Learn to Fly’, while the second tune was ‘My Hero’ – both of which were unrecognisable from their original compositions.Grohl was on the programme to discuss Foo Fighters’ new horror-comedy film Studio 666, which is released in cinemas tomorrow (February 25).The movie follows the bandmembers as they move into a mansion in Encino, California that is “steeped in grisly rock and roll history” to record a new album. Once they’ve arrived, though, Grohl “finds himself grappling with supernatural forces that threaten both the completion of the album and the lives of the band”.

“The Kids from C.A.P.E.R.” Keyboardist Rami Jaffee either had no problem with, or specifically requested, being portrayed like a horny New Age space-case who can tell you how long a corpse has been dead just by listening to its vibes. The perpetually put-upon Pat Smear doesn’t even get a bedroom as this gigantic house, but he chipperly sleeps in the kitchen because, obviously, it’s closer to the Doritos.And then there’s Dave Grohl, who came up with the story of “Studio 666,” and initially plays himself as a slightly out-of-touch dweeb who loves sconces, and isn’t afraid to tell you about it, but gradually falls prey to the dark-ish side of celebrity and transforms into a selfish meanie who also, if they’re getting in the way of his mojo, murders his bandmates with their own barbecue.

“Studio 666” — their new horror comedy that opens in theaters on Friday — Dave Grohl’s gang took unlikely inspiration from another band: Spinal Tap.“In our way, it was like this ultimate gore ‘Spinal Tap,’” Grohl told The Post, referencing the fictional band’s 1984 mockumentary “This Is Spinal Tap.” “It was one of the most inspiring rock ’n’ roll films because it made everyone take a look at themselves and think, ‘Oh s—t, I hope I’m not like that.’ And so it was kind of a manual of what not to do — or else you might become Spinal Tap.”But unlike the pretentious, fictitious band Spinal Tap, Foo Fighters have proven to be the real deal — and then some — with hits such as “Learn to Fly,” “Best of You” and, of course, “Times Like These.” The 11-time Grammy-winning group was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame last October in its first year of eligibility.After the Foo Fighters found themselves enshrined in the pantheon of rock immortals, “Studio 666” — in which the band plays and pokes fun at themselves during some haunted sessions — might seem like a strange choice for an encore. But the project developed organically while the Foos were recording their 10th studio album, 2021’s “Medicine at Midnight,” at a mansion in the Encino neighborhood of Los Angeles.“It is something I never wanted to or expected to do.

Dave Grohl's pitch for was succinct but effective, because the rest of the Foo Fighters immediately jumped at the «wild» idea.ET's Matt Cohen caught up with Grohl and the rest of his bandmates at TCL Theater in Los Angeles for the premiere of their horror comedy, which hits theaters Feb. 25. When asked what his pitch to the guys was for this film, Grohl didn't skip a beat and laid out exactly what he envisioned.«Food Fighters need to make a record,» Grohl's pitch begins.

KISS has said he would be up for making some music with Foo Fighters if the opportunity ever came up.Speaking at the red carpet premiere of Studio 666 – the new horror-comedy starring the Foos – which took place at the TCL Mann Chinese Theater in Hollywood on Wednesday (February 16), Stanley opened up about his connection to Dave Grohl.“Dave and I, we had children in the same school, so I’ve known Dave for a while,” the guitarist told Consequence.He then went on to share his admiration for the iconic frontman. “I mean, look, what he’s done is phenomenal,” said Stanley.

Foo Fighters have shared an unexpected new song, ‘March Of The Insane’, which takes the band into unfamiliar territory – thrash metal.The track was quietly released earlier today (February 15) under the alias Dream Widow and features frontman Dave Grohl growling his way through the lyrics.“Sing in a villainous choir / Join in a chorus of pain,” Grohl sings on the track. “Rise in a ruinous army / Dance to the march of the insane”.In the YouTube description box, the track is said to be from Dream Widow’s “never released self-titled album”.
