American Idol will begin holding auditions for its landmark 10th season in Nashville, Tenn on July 17, and for the first time, 15-year-old powerhouse hopefuls will be eligible to compete.
Will the change be enough to keep talent show fans glued to the tube for a sans-Simon Idol?
The show previously had a 16-to-28 contestant age requirement. Sorry, Gen. Larry Platt. The maximum age is still 28. Idol auditions will continue through the summer in Milwaukee; New Orleans; East Rutherford, N.J.; and Austin, Tex., before wrapping up in San Francisco on Aug. 19.









Nobody will ever take this show seriously again.
