Background of American Idol

American Idol hit the Fox Network in June of 2002, and has since become a reality show phenomenon. American Idol is one of the most watched television series ever and continues to increase in viewers around the world, season after season. This phenomenon took reality TV betting to a whole new level with Betting On American Idol. American Idol has one objective - to find the most talented young performers that the USA has to offer, and turn one of them into a rising star. The friendly faces we have come to know and love, those that are responsible for making dreams into a reality, are people that have already had a very successful run in the entertainment industry themselves.

American Idol Judges

Randy Jackson, Simon Cowell, Kara DioGuardi, and the newest addition to the team, Ellen DeGeneres, are responsible for helping discover the next American Idol. All who hold an entertainment background, will bring their own type of experience, expertise, and personality to the table, which should make for a very interesting run season after season. Luckily judges don't solely influence American Idol Betting, you do.

Randy Jackson, who is a Grammy Award winning music producer, has seen his share of go arounds in the music industry, seeing as how he is a 20 year veteran to the business. He is one of the most respected producers in the music business and has worked with some of the most successful entertainers, such as Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston and Celine Deon. Randy brings a fresh new flavor to the show season after season.

Simon Cowell, what to say about this guy. Although Simon is criticized for speaking his mind and giving the contestants a dose of reality, he is one of the most powerful men in the entertainment business. His involvement in shows such as The X Factor, Britain's Got Talent, and America's Got Talent have made him a household name in reality television. Although quite blunt at times, the contestants respect his opinion and know that a good comment from Simon means you are still in the running.

Grammy nominated songwriter Kara DioGuardi can be described as the heartfelt judge. While Kara is very knowledgeable in how this tough business works, she can deliver the criticism in a way that is somewhat compassionate. Kara has written chart topping songs for some amazing performers, such as Celine Dion and Christina Agularea. While she may be the sweet one of the bunch, she knows her music and has no problem separating the good from the bad performers.

Ellen DeGeneres's background may fall more along the lines of daytime entertainment, as she is one of the top talk show hosts, but if you have ever seen her show, you know she gives on heck of a performance each and every time she dances across her stage. Ellen has been involved in several different aspects of the entertainment business and knows talent when she sees it.
