You may think that if you get an American Idol audition, you get to perform in front of the judges you see on TV: Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul, and Randy Jackson. But this is not true at all. I'll show you the American Idol audition process and what to expect. Continue reading and I'll give you all the nitty gritty details. Here is more information on where to find auditions for American Idol.
At the time that this article is published, American Idol will be at season 9 already. What that means is that you'll see more auditions for American Idol. What you see on TV for an American Idol episode about auditions is not what really happens behind the scenes. The reality is that you are in line with other candidates for hours and hours until you see the casting directors. You don't even get a chance to audition in front of a camera or in front of celebrity judges. You first have to get past this first stage before you can even audition in front of the judges you see on TV. The casting directors will then choose you if you have the certain look and possess the skills to be an a American Idol.
People who are goofy and funny to watch and make fun of will also make it to the next round because the general public likes to laugh at these types of people on American Idol episodes. It's a rough industry because even candidates who sing really awesome may not make it to the first round of casting directors.
If you don't have that look: Caucasian, attractive, and with a story, you won't make it. This is not to sway you away from auditioning, this is just looking at the past people that casting directors have chosen. For example, look at William Hung with that "She Bangs, She Bangs" song. He was horrible, but the casting directors knew that they could market him and make him a laughing stock of the whole country. What ever got ratings was the best motivation for the casting directors.
Less than half of a percent of all candidates on the show get to see the celebrity judges and be on TV. I don't tell you these things to discourage you, but instead to make you try harder to get it. If you are looking for VH1 open casting calls for music videos, fill out this quick form. You'll also have a chance at a get an acting job. Good luck with your American Idol audition and I hope to see you on a cover of the next CD.
