From our media partners at WOTV 4:
If you’re a secret shower singer, your time is now. Someone from West Michigan could be the next American Idol!
American Idol is returning for a new season on ABC, and the search is on to find talented contestants from across the country! Judges Katy Perry, Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie will be auditioning hopefuls later this fall and giving them the "Golden Ticket" to Hollywood. This will allow them to appear on the show and win the opportunity of a lifetime!
Wanna get in front of these amazing judges?! The journey starts here in West Michigan with WOTV Idol presented by Kellogg Community Credit Union. My ABC WOTV 4 is giving one talented viewer a shot to win a "Silver Ticket".
This coveted Silver Ticket will give the WOTV Idol winner the opportunity to travel to a "Judges City" (location TBA) where they will audition for the American Idol executive producers. The producers can choose to push the contestants through to the judges for a chance to be selected for the show!
