American Idol celebrated the close of season 12 on Fox last night. The series came to an end with Candice Glover the victor of the competition. Glover won the Idol crown after a tense Wednesday night sing off against finalist Kree Harrison.

Gary Busy is looking invisible these days! The actor and his team, Plan B, managed to win this week’s challenge with model Brande Roderick sent home by Donald Trump.

Survivor Caramoan- Fans vs. Favorites contestants entered into their 28th day on the island last night with just 2 weeks to go. After the elimination of Michael in last week’s episode, life has resumed with new dramas in tow. Cochran is now getting suspicious of Dawn.

The competition finally began in this week’s Monday and Tuesday night episodes of The Voice. Done with the blind auditions, the series kicked off the battle rounds with coaches seeking the best of the best while making some steals along the way.
D.L. Hughley was the latest celebrity to make an exit from Dancing with the Stars after being voted off. After scoring 18 points out of 30 in Monday night’s show, Hughley was deemed in jeopardy during last night’s results.
