GET IN THE GAME WITH THE FIRST-EVER #IDOLPREDICTIONS CHALLENGE, LAUNCHING TONIGHT ON AMERICANIDOL.COM

If you think you have an eye to spot talent, then AMERICAN IDOL XIV invites you to get involved in a brand-new way, with the #IdolPredictions game on AmericanIdol.com! The #IdolPredictions game tests IDOL fans' ability to successfully "judge" the Top 10 finalists on their talent, style and star presence.

Following the AMERICAN IDOL XIV Top 10 performance show tonight, Thursday, March 19 (8:00-10:00 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed), fans can earn points online by 1) correctly picking which finalists will move on to the next round, and 2) accurately ranking the finalists, based on who is most buzzed about on Twitter.

The #IdolPredictions game also allows fans to create their own leagues and invites family and friends to compete. Fans also may share their scores, ranks and leagues with other players on Twitter and Facebook.

Register now at www.americanidol.com/predictions. The first round, and all subsequent rounds, will begin 30 minutes after the broadcast (ET). If fans miss the opening round, they can join the game at any point throughout the competition. Each week, the Top Five players will be featured on the #IdolPredictions leaderboard.

To create this new IDOL fan experience, AMERICAN IDOL XIV reached out to its longtime partner, Omnigon, the digital consulting firm to FOX and other leaders in the sports, media and entertainment industries.
