The 11th season of AMERICAN IDOL came to a sensational conclusion last night as Phillip Phillips was crowned the winner during the live two-hour season finale on FOX. Phillips, 21, from Leesburg, GA, received the most of America's world record-shattering 132 million votes - the highest number in the show's history.

On last night's DANCING WITH THE STARS results show, Maria Menounos and her partner Derek Hough were eliminated from the competition. View the highly emotional final elimination below!

Rachel Potter of the EVITA Broadway revival visited CBS on May 12. In this video, the Broadway veteran discusses her long-awaited album, Andrew Lloyd Webber, EVITA, and sings an original song from her new EP.

On last night's DANCING WITH THE STAR, contestant Katherine Jenkins appeared overcome with emotion at the conclusion of her dance with partner Mark Ballas. It remained unclear if the opera star was disappointed by her performance or crying out of pain.

After last week's nerve-racking double elimination, the four remaining couples faced off in the semifinals of ABC's DANCING WITH THE STARS last night. The couples performed one new Ballroom and one new Latin dance to determine which three couples will land in the finals. View highlights of the show below!

EVITA's Rachel Potter and ROCK OF AGES' alum/soon-to-be JEKYLL & HYDE star Constantine Maroulis took to the stage at Joe's Pub last night, May 13, to celebrate the release of Potter's debut country EP, 'Live the Dream.' BroadwayWorld was there for the concert and we brings you a sampling of the tracks below!

Last night, the Top Four Finalists were revealed on AMERICAN IDOL - Hollie Cavanagh, Joshua Ledet, Phillip Phillips and Jessica Sanchez.

On last night's AMERICAN IDOL, the Top 5 competed in two categories: songs from the 1960s and Brit pop, with guest mentoring from 'Little Steven' Van Zandt. Randy and Steven agreed that round one belonged to Joshua, Skylar, and Hollie, with Jennifer singling out Joshua and Hollie.

Ryan announced that after 58 million votes had been counted, Elise, Hollie, and Skylar were in the bottom three, which meant that Jessica, Joshua, and Phillip were in the top three. Ryan quickly sent Skylar to safety, leaving Elise and Hollie in the bottom two. Then Elise was the last contestant standing.

On the February 13th episode of NBC's new musical drama series SMASH entitled 'Callbacks', Ivy (Megan Hilty) and Karen (Katharine McPhee) jump through hoops for the brilliant but temperamental director Derek Wills (Jack Davenport) as they pursue the role of a lifetime. Meanwhile, Julia (Debra Messing) and her husband Frank (Brian d'Arcy James), are frustrated by the red tape of an international adoption process, and Eileen (Anjelica Huston) fights to finance her new musical in the midst of an acrimonious divorce. Christian Borle, Raza Jaffrey, and Jaime Cepero also star. The episode airs Monday, February 13th at 10:00 pm/ET.

Contestant Baylie Brown made a return visit to Fox's AMERICAN IDOL audition round last night. The singer first appeared on the show for Season 6 in 2007 where she made it to the Hollywood week but was then sent home. This year, Brown's version of 'Bed of Roses' wowed the judges and sent her on to the next round of competition!
