Gambling News - March 6th, 2010 - Written By Bonnie

American Idol Season 9 is in full swing, and just when we thought we have seen it all, the contestants step it up and turn it in to a real singing competition. The talent the judges had to choose from this season, was more than they could have asked for, and much harder than they ever wanted it to be. American Idol is all about finding the right person, the person with star quality and a voice that rocks each time they pick up a microphone. From what we have seen since the show went live two weeks ago, there is natural raw talent from some of the best singers American Idol has ever put on the stage. The future of these singers relies solely on what America is looking for in their next idol, and this year is sure to be a close. At this point is any one's title to take home.

As the weeks get more intense and the competition narrows down, each and every performance is just as important as the next and could very well determine just how long contestants will have a run on one of America's most rewarding reality shows. Those who started off strong are getting lost in the shadows of the ones that continue to improve week after week. Simon will be the first to say that America needs to remember the performance, which is some previous performances, is not the case. Choosing the right song and showing personality, as well as a sense of style while performing, shows the judges, and America, that the talent is there as well as the determination.

Simon Cowell has helped a number of young people grow into very talented performers, and American Idol fans will be sad to see Simon leave after season 9.Rumors started flying sever weeks ago and even online sportsbooks have picked up on the media frenzy and actually offer betting odds on who will replace Simon whenever he does decide to leave American Idol.

With or without Simon, more dreams will be crushed rather than come true, but American Idol can put aspiring singers on a path they never dreamed they would find. Learning and growing as a performer can only make the contestants better, whether that be on American Idol, or on their own personal journey to making their dream a reality.
