‘American Idol’ is “Going to Disney World!”

[Bats]

It's big time karaoke no?!

I was thinking it would be where who wants to be a millionaire was as it was not opened last month when I was there.

Leave it to me guys - 1 visit and it'll soon close down!

Very interesting news, maybe fly the british flag and have ago with a Sir Elton John Lion King song,depends the quality of the sound system, wouldnt do it if its karaoke type equipment.

This park is our least fave now but because it needs alot more than american idol attraction, the only reason we go back is to see fantasmic

Who wants to be a millionaire is becoming the new toy story ridde I beleive. It wouldn't surprise me if they do shut Mermaid down, as it's on broadway now as well. I so hope that comes to the UK soon...

Well i must say i'm very disappointed!
Surely Disney could come up with something better than that! The idea of listening to an endless stream of talentless, whiny teenage girls screeching along to Britney and Christina whilst their pushy mothers cheer them on fills me with dread! I'll definately be steering well clear of this 'attraction!'

Exactly!

I'm another one who thinks this a complete waste of space. They could have put something disney in there instead.

One person mentioned that they can't think why they would put this in, apart from getting more peopel through the turn stiles. Thats the EXACT reason why they are doing it. Animal Kingdom is closely catching up with DHS as the 3rd most popular park.
American Idol is going into an empty theatre (used to be doug live & superstar television), so anything is better than an empty theatre.
American Idol is still the number 1 show in the US and one of the top rated shows on multi channel telly in the UK.
With American Idol, Toy Story Mania and Block Party Bash, i'm sure this year and next year will see a huge increase in visiters to DHS, which is what Disney wants!
