‘American Idol’ Goes Online

Posted on Thursday September 16, 2010 at 05:01 PM Add |

“American Idol” hopefuls who want a shot on the reality show but don’t want to make the effort to stand in the never-ending audition lines are in luck. For the first time the Fox reality competition is accepting online auditions.

Auditions for the 10th season of “American Idol” are being accepted now through MySpace until Oct. 6.

“All you need is a web cam and an Internet connection,” host Ryan Seacrest told fans in a MySpace video. “And if you have what it takes you could be on your way to singing in front of the judges. Take one minute to change your life by submitting your audition.”

Wannabe singers have no more than 40 seconds to state their name, the title of the song they’ve chosen and sing the tune.

Contestants, who must be between the ages of 15-28, have to choose a song from an approved list. Song options include Frank Sinatra’s “That’s Life,” Billy Ray Cyrus’ “Achy Breaky Heart,” Dashboard Confessional’s “Screaming Infidelities,” Fleetwood Mac’s “Don’t Stop,” Madonna’s “Borderline” and Poison’s “Nothing’ But A Good Time.”
