AceShowbiz - Another video footage showing preparation for upcoming Top Ten "American Idol" Summer Tour has arrived, featuring Kris Allen's rehearsal session. The winner of the Idol season eight is seen sitting behind the piano and singing to Bill Withers' 1971 song "Ain't No Sunshine".
In the roadshow, Kris Allen previously said he will deliver five songs, one of which is The Beatles' 1968 track called "Hey Jude". On when he will take the stage, Kris shared he will "go last". He added, "I have nothing to do until later, but I'm so weird I'll probably be watching from the wings anyway."
Adam Lambert, meanwhile, will sing a medley of David Bowie's songs "that goes from 'Life on Mars' into 'Fame' into 'Let's Dance'." And, Allison Iraheta is scheduled to perform three songs, including Janis Joplin's track "Cry Baby".
Top Ten "American Idol" Summer Tour will be started at Rose Garden in Portland on July 5, and wrapped up at Verizon Wireless Arena in Manchester on September 15. Each concert will be closed with "Don't Stop Believing" performance by all of the singers.
Most recently, Anoop Desai tweeted that he and the other singers were working on a Michael Jackson tribute but the idea was scrapped due to logistic issue. "So we tried to work in a short MJ tribute to the end of the show today during rehearsal but it didn't work out logistically, unfortunately..," he wrote.
