An interesting 95 Million votes were cast for American Idol last week's episode.

It was the biggest number in any season of American Idol, and 15 million more then last season !

Do you think it's just a coincidence, this season with the new line up of judges? More Viewers? Better Singers?

Haley Reinhart was voted off last Thursday, which leaves Lauren Alaina and Scotty McCreery, the youngest match up in idol history.

Who will put it over the top??

Is Scotty in it to win it, as Randy Jackson says. Find out this week in a 2 night season finale of American Idol on Tuesday and Wednesday with an all star line up and ton of surprises, promises Ryan Seacrest, host of the show.

It's game on for the title this week!

I may have to watch it LIVE on TV for the conclusion! (As I usually have it pre-recorded, and watch it when I have time permitting)

But honestly it's more about the hype that the show brings, I really don't care who wins, I'm just interested in seeing Steven Tyler for the last time this season.

Although I will catch him next season, as it was recently announced Steven Tyler and Randy Jackson signed a multi-year contract and Jennifer Lopez only signed for one more season.

'Til next season Steven Tyler fans, I mean American Idol Fans . . .
