Nigel Lythgoe: online voting is coming
2:08 pm February 21, 2011, by Rodney Ho
Nigel Lythgoe at the Fox Theatre today, Feb. 21, 2011.
Back in 2002, “‘American Idol” offered up just one option to vote: calls.
At some point, “Idol”’ added texting as an option.
This year? Executive producer Nigel Lythgoe just told me that online voting is going to be added this season. Though a publicist later told me it was not a done deal, Lythgoe’s exact quote to me was affirmative: “We are going to introduce online voting.”
He was unsure about the details and whether there’d be any limits on the voting online. He did say that there are no plans to limit texts or voice calls. I videotaped the interview, which was rather brief. I’ll post it later.

Does it bother anyone that we only get to vote once on the 24 contestants and for only 10 to stay? (2 more chosen by the judges.) I wish they would have allowed us to see them perform before a live audience and let us vote after seeing if they can overcome their nerves and pick great songs to highlight their talent.
1: Clint Bamboa Lots of energy and screaming. Randy and Steven thought he was brilliant. JLo, jitters didn't affect his performance, she expects a lot from him.
2: Jovany Barreto JLo said she was glad people could see him. Randy didn't like it, said it was just OK. (I don't even remember it.)
3: Jordan Dorsey He sings OMG by Usher. He had a lot of energy but it was not the best song for him. Judges didn't like it either. Randy said it was pitchy and if you are going to sing anybody's song, you will always be judged by that. It isn't a singer's song. He needed to do more because of the song. (It sounds better listening to him on YouTube.)
