from Hollywood Reporter: 

Phillip Phillips says he’s been “manipulated” and in a move with huge implications, he is seeking to void his recording, management and merchandising deals with 19 Entertainment.

For those who would give almost anything for a chance at superstardom, American Idolmight be the entertainment industry’s version of a Faustian bargain: Through 14 seasons, the very successful Fox show has exploited the fact that there are millions of singers who are willing to sign onerous deals for the chance to compete.

]]> During auditions for the 14th season of American Idol, 23-year-old single mom Kelley Kime was joined on stage by her adorable 3-year-old daughter, Hope.  And the tiny tot may have even out shined her dazzling mom by delivering the best (and cutest) version of “Let it Go” from Disney’s Frozen – so cute it even made JLo tear up.

Right before Kelly auditioned, 3-year old Hope sang her own version of “Let it Go”. The little girl’s performance amazed the judges so much, they awarded her a coveted golden ticket. Mom’s voice was also a hit with the judges as she sang “Sunday Morning” by Maroon 5, and she too was given her own ticket to LA for the next round of Idol.

Clearly the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree with this talented family.
