They will only feature A-listers in the Finale.

According to sources, Idol’s final bow will feature only alumni of the show, saving the A-list bookings for the grand finale, scheduled for May 2016. "We will be bringing Idols back in a way that’s organic," says Trish Kinane, president of entertainment programming at FremantleMedia North America and Idol showrunner, stopping short of confirming the plan. "We’re going to be reflecting on the huge successes and amazing moments from the past 14 years."

Tragic

they want the ratings for that final episode I guess. they'll need it because it's not like anyone is gonna be checking for the rest of the season

I think the ratings for the Final season will increase a tiny bit tho...

TBH.... I like this,,, I rather have some good memories with some past idol winners and standouts than new talentless popstars...

and I hope to see Tori Kelly there also TBH

They should of brought back Simon, Paula and Randy to do the final season.

I think they will make a guest appearance maybe or something

Hope they bring back Mariah and Nicki too!

I'm here for this

I hope Avril will perform on the finale

Mariah already said that there's no way in hell she'll be going back lol. She openly said being on Idol was like going to hell so nahh!

Will Kelly perform the entire show then?

What if she's the A-Lister they're referring to. Lmao

yassss ready for iggy's second american idol performance

And the 100th JLo performance! !

the show was already dead anyway

Stop hating. Ya'll act like The Voice ever reached Idol's peak LMAO.

Agreed
