Watch American Idol Season 9 Online

The show is that more people vote on than the Presidential elections is back.  American Idol returns for a ninth season and once again it will be full of some great voices and also some absolutely brutal ones.  The biggest change to Season 9 is the departure of Paula Abdul.  She is gone as one of the judges but fear not, they have another one in the waiting.  Ellen DeGeneres is set to fill in for Abdul’s departure and should bring a unique and funny perspective to the show.  Of course, Randy Jackson and Simon Cowell will be back as well.
