AMERICAN IDOL Has Major Screw-up On Vote Count

Fox has announced this morning that due to an error with the graphics shown on-screen (incorrect voting numbers were displayed) during the performance recap at the end of last night´s AMERICAN IDOL, a live, one-hour show will air tonight, Wednesday, March 23 9/8c on FOX, to enable a re-vote. This new show will combine new live elements with encores of Tuesday´s performances from the remaining 11 contestants.

Phone lines will open at the conclusion of tonight´s show and will remain open for two hours to give viewers the chance to vote for their favorite contestants and keep them in the competition. Only the voting results from tonight´s show will determine who received the lowest number of votes and will be sent home this week.

Tune in to see who America has chosen to stay and who is sent home on the live results show tomorrow, Thursday, March 24 9/8c live on FOX.
