'American Idol' judge Keith Urban sang his current single 'Little Bit of Everything' on the hit reality singing competition on Thursday night (May 16), showing the contestants how it's done in the big leagues with a polished, tight and energetic performance.
May 14, 2013 News of an American Idol judges shake-up was confirmed when Randy Jackson announced that he would be leaving the show at the end of this season. The fate of the other 3 judges have been rumored to be in jeopardy as well. Keith Urban's appearance on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' today put to rest a few of those rumors.
After the news broke last week that Randy Jackson will be departing 'American Idol' at the end of its 12th season, fellow judge and country star Keith Urban has revealed who will be taking his place -- sort of.
Perhaps it should be no surprise that after five months spent judging 'American Idol,' Keith Urban has delivered his most pop-friendly single to date in 'Little Bit of Everything.' The talented singer and guitarist uses tricks in production that a less established singer would be skewered for. The result is a delightful summer jam that's short on nutritional content.
Like many world-class performers, Keith Urban has hilarious stories of his highly unpredictable life as a touring musician. He recently appeared on Conan O'Brien's late night TV show and revealed a few entertaining highlights of the past few months, including a body part he didn't think he'd ever autograph and what it was like to play with the Rolling Stones.
After a season of plummeting ratings, all four 'American Idol' judges will be fired and replaced -- along with one of the show's main producers, according to the latest rumors.
'American Idol' used to be the hottest show on television, but after 13 years, it's starting to show its age. The show's ratings have slipped from regularly having 30 million viewers to now somewhere around 11 million. And though the show has had some different judges over the course of its run, it's now looking to ditch all four current judges to have a fresh face for season 13.
Keith Urban premiered a 23-second snippet of some much-anticipated new music -- a brand new single, which will be serviced to country radio on Monday, May 13. It's a short tease, Urban fanatics will find it good enough to tide them over for the time being.
May 7, 2013 The new Tim McGraw, Taylor Swift and Keith Urban collaboration was just released and it caught me by surprise. As I watched, it was becoming pretty predictable. The story follows a girl who is upset, jumps in her car with cell phone in hand and as she's driving she's constantly distracted by text messages. As I anticipated, she is in an accident, but that's where all the predictability ends.
Tim McGraw's 'Highway Don't Care' video is like a mini-movie, which isn't surprising, since the singer has had plenty of big screen experience as an actor in full-length films. The clip acts as somewhat of a PSA to warn of the dangers of texting and driving. But it's not that simple.
Even though Keith Urban has only been a judge on 'American Idol' for one season, which is winding down as we speak, his quiet and kind demeanor has already made him a fan favorite.
Keith Urban had a real rock star moment at the Rolling Stones concert at the Staples Center in Los Angeles last night (May 3).
