Miley Cyrus to Mentor American Idol Contestants
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Gossip, Performances, Pop,
They might not be singing songs from teen idols anymore, but they are going to be mentored by one anyway.
It’s just been announced that American Idol’s remaining 11 contestants will be following up Rolling Stones week with a “Billboard #1 Hits”-themed show. Who will be on hand to help guide the singers on their quest for fame? Someone who’s not even old enough to be considered an adult yet: 17-year-old Miley Cyrus.
Cyrus’ mentoring duties on Tuesday will be followed up by a performance from the singer on Wednesday. (That’s when she’ll sing “When I Look at You,” a song from her upcoming movie The Last Song.) Meanwhile, two other teen stars are also scheduled to sing during this week’s results show. Real-life couple Joe Jonas and Demi Lovato will be on hand to perform “Make A Wave” together.

Lady Gaga has been teasing fans with photos and video clips from the set of the Telephone music video, building anticipation to the eventual release of the almost 10-minute final copy. You can finally get a look at the collaboration between Lady Gaga and Beyonce. The video continues right where the Paparazzi music video left off, it seems. Even odder, at the end, we get a “to be continued.” Any guesses on which track will be used for the follow-up video?

As hard you might find it to believe, Ke$ha wasn’t always brushing her teeth with a bottle of Jack. At one point in her life, she was just your average teenager who liked to sing Radiohead at her middle school talent shows. (Granted, she could have still been drinking whiskey at the time.)
After watching 13-year-old Kesha Sebert perform “Karma Police,” answer this: Was Jessica Simpson’s high-waisted jeans look was inspired by this moment?

American Idol followers - the time has finally come. The time when contestants from previous seasons come back to remind us about what we may have already forgotten.

Season 8’s fourth place-finisher will perform “Scars,” a song off her debut album Just Like You. That CD - released December 1 - also includes a song (“No One Else”) co-written by Pink, Greg Wells and Idol‘s Kara DioGuardi.
Kris Allen, last year’s champ, will also be a part of Thursday’s results show. Allen will be sharing footage from his recent trip to Haiti in addition to singing for the audience.

Ke$ha says a poor upbringing helps her keep her feet on the ground now that she has an international hit single.
“I can’t stand pretentious people. I think growing up without money has taught me not to take myself seriously,” she explained. “I’m the same person I when I was selling clothes to buy a taco for dinner, I just have a few extra bucks.”
The “Tik Tok” singer also said that when she got her first paycheck after becoming famous, she didn’t splash out on any lavish or expensive gifts for herself.
“I bought a 1998 Honda car, which I needed. I don’t believe in wasting money when there are people in the world who can’t eat. If I earn a lot of money, I’ll treat myself, but I’m not going to be ridiculous. I think it’s kind of gross,” she said. “I don’t like spending money on stuff. I may buy some instruments though.”
