\n\tThe April 27 episode \u2014 which will feature guest judge Nikki Glaser, a loud-and-proud Swiftie \u2014 will be the first night entirely dedicated to Swift\u2019s music in the show\u2019s 24 seasons.<\/p>\n

\n\tIdol<\/em> debuted on Fox in 2002, four years before Swift released her self-titled debut album, and ran for 15 seasons on the network until 2016. It then picked back up on ABC in 2018 for its 16th season and is currently airing season 24 live on Monday nights.<\/p>\n

\n\tThough Swift has never appeared on Idol<\/em> as a performer or guest judge, her music has definitely had a presence on the show \u2014 including just this season, when Bryant Thomas covered \u201cChampagne Problems\u201d from her 2020 album Evermore<\/em> during Hollywood Week back in February. Other notable Swift moments include McKenna Breinholt singing 2020 Folklore<\/em> lead single \u201cCardigan\u201d and eventual winner Abi Carter covering the 2012 Red<\/em> fan favorite \u201cAll Too Well,\u201d both in season 22.<\/p>\n

\n\tOn Monday night\u2019s episode, the season 24 top nine performed for Disney Night, in which they each performed a song from a Disney movie, with Idol<\/em> alum Jennifer Hudson returning as a guest mentor and guest judge. Hudson \u2014 who now hosts the daily talk show The Jennifer Hudson Show<\/em> and has become an EGOT winner \u2014 finished in seventh place on the third season of the talent competition show.<\/p>\n

\n\tNext week, the nine contestants will be whittled down to the top seven during Taylor Swift Night.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
