Two 'Idol' Winners Lead 'Dreams' Guest List
(Monday, October 11 08:43 AM)
LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) Kelly Clarkson and Fantasia Barrino, winners of the first and third installments of FOX's "American Idol," lead the list of early season guests on NBC's struggling nostalgic drama "American Dreams."
While its viewership has continued to drop from last season, averaging fewer than 8 million viewers through the show's first three airings, "American Dreams" continues to get a diverse roster of contemporary musical guests taking advantage of the opportunity to portray their heroes on the show-within-the-show of "American Bandstand."
Barrino, who won her "Idol" crown in May, will sing "R-E-S-P-E-C-T" in the guise of her own idol, Aretha Franklin. Clarkson will reprise her role as Brenda Lee, this time singing "Rock Around the Christmas Tree." Both "Idol" stars will appear in November.
Also doing November duty is Alanis Morissette, who will visit the show's alternative venue, the Lair, to perform her own original song "Feast on Scraps," which purists may view as something of a cheat.
Grammy winner Brandy will drop by in November, as will Michael Tocher, 112, and Phantom Planet as The Zombies. Power punk band Hawk Nelson will play The Who, covering "My Generation" and JoJo will be a young Linda Ronstandt, auditioning for "Bandstand" with "That Will Be the Day."
