I can show you this brand-new just-released official publicity photo for the 9th season of American Idol with host Ryan Seacrest and the judges Randy Jackson, Ellen DeGeneres, Simon Cowell and Kara DioGuardi.
American Idol IX will start this Sunday on M-Net at 15:00 for a massive American Idol debut of 3 and a half hours.
At 15:00 viewers can tune in for the ''Boston Auditions'', followed at 17:00 by the ''Atlanta Auditions''. At 18:30 M-Net has changed the line-up and included the half hour special, London Live V featuring Kelly Clarkson (who of course won the very first American Idol).
