American Idol is a reality singing competition that adds to the international “Idol” brand, conceived initially in the U.K. as Pop Idol. Holding massive auditions across the U.S., American Idol invited several contestants to perform in front of a panel of judges that would determine whether or not they’d go on to future rounds for a chance at competing in the fully televised premiere of the show. Contestants are voted off each week by American participation via voting through various mediums, and the winner of the competition would be given a contract with a record label to secure a future as America’s next musical idol.

They were so polished and professional, and they were a joy to watch.

However,they also had a strong advantage because they’d performed before on other TV shows.

Having a pre-established fan base definitely gives previous reality TV competitors an edge over the rest of the competition.

The worst part aboutAmerican Idolcasting reality singing competition series alums is thatthey never mention it on the show.

Alums from other shows come with experience and fan bases that give them an unfair advantage in the competition.

However,the contestants themselves don’t deserve any backlash.
