mrsvaledictorian2017 Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 (edited) Those are the same ones from previous seasons. Nothing wrong with that, but I always thought they try and do different ones each season. I would love to see Olivia Rodrigo and Lin Manuel Miranda be celebrity partners possibly this season or any other season of American Idol.

AngelaKD Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Bebe and Jimmie have both done the celebrity duets in seasons past. Are they going to be singing again or just mentoring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsvaledictorian2017 Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Yoko Ono would be another good option too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering it says Top 24, it makes me think they are going to be the celebrity duet partner, which is why I said they already did that and should use different celebrities.

Idol Pad is labeling them “mentors”, not “duet partners”. Hence, my question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrsvaledictorian2017 Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 It just occurred to me. Walker Hayes would be good to have. His song Fancy Like is one of the biggest and most well known songs released this year. They play it on the pop radio stations constantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrsvaledictorian2017 Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 If we are talking strictly mentors and not actually performing with the contestants, I would go with Dr. Dre (He just did the Super Bowl Half Tile show yesterday), Timbaland, Slash, Stevie Nicks, Cher, and Barbara Streisand. So the younger audience is satisfied, Sara Bareilles, Anna Kendrick, BTS, Mark Robson, Mickey Guyton, and Shawn Mendes. Some of these though, could be good duet partners too.

mrsvaledictorian2017 Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Something tells me though that Bebe Rexha and Jimmie Allen are going to be the only two mentors, which is fine. I’m thinking it more though and I think they are strictly mentors this time and not going to perform with the contestants. If they were, they would have many different celebrities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead, why not have Idol alums - since they knew what it was like to compete on the show. Edited February 15, 2022 by mytake1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question is who would accept the offer to do so and I thought that’s what they are doing during Hollywood Week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure hope they’re bringing back more alums! There are so many good ones!! How could they not…it’s the 20th season! And re: the mentors… I am so unimpressed with Beba Rexha.

kryptonite Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 (edited) David Archuletta’s version of “Imagine”, was definitely one of the most iconic performances in American Idol history!! i can still hear it, in my head!

She has done for it American Idol with only a few contestants and The Voice with only a few contestants. So I’m not unimpressed with her. I just wish they picked someone different. But at the end of the day, it’s about the contestants, not anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
