‘American Idol 2′ Tryouts Begin Today In Detroit

Fox News reports ‘American Idol’ tryouts begin today in Detroit and will then cover every region of the country, making stops in hubs such as New York; Austin, Texas; Nashville, Tenn.; and Los Angeles. Don’t look for Simon Cowell and company though as judges. “The judges can’t see thousands of people, so the judges see a certain number from each city, and then that gets cut down to whatever it might be to make it to the Hollywood round,” said Jason Clark, Fox Network’s manager of publicity for ‘American Idol’. The runner-up to the first series, Justin Guarini, gave advice to wannabes for round 2. “I think my number one best piece of advice, is be yourself,” Guarini said. “As long as you’re always yourself, you can’t ever worry about contradicting yourself.”
