"Involving MySpace means now - for the first time - artists can post their auditions online prior to attending our live auditions. We are hoping and expecting this to be the biggest ever talent search in our history."

"We're thrilled to be a part of the biggest show on television as we work with AMERICAN IDOL to bring an added discovery component to Season Ten's auditions.
