Presley Cash, an aspiring singer who appeared in Taylor Swift‘s music videos for “Mean” and “I Can See You,” has made some shocking claims about American Idol after auditioning for Season 23 of the show. Cash did not make it through the audition round following her performance in front of judges Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, and Lionel Richie. The actress posted a TikTok about her experience and insinuated that Underwood purposely rejected her because of her connection to Swift, who welcomed Cash onstage at her Eras tour in July 2023 to celebrate the release of the “I Can See You” video. In the video, Cash was seemingly practicing for her audition in her bedroom, but she revealed in a chunk of text over the clip that there was “tea” to spill. She claimed that she was sought after by Idol producers for months, only to be turned away once she actually auditioned.

“You need to go and watch some of your favorite performers because I still do that.”

[Warning: This post contains Major spoilers from American Idol Season 23, Episode 8.] Hollywood Week came to an end during Monday’s (April 7) episode of American Idol, but it was the most grueling day yet for the remaining artists. With four singers — Canaan James Hill, Zaylie Windsor, Mattie Pruitt, and Gabby Samone — already in the Top 24, there were 20 spots left to fill and 42 contestants trying to snag one. Immediately after finding out that they made it through the showstopper round, the 42 singers were told that the next round had begun. They were tasked with picking a duet partner for the first-ever head-to-head round. The pairs had just one night to prepare a performance with help from artist in residence Jelly Roll. Everybody was in danger of going home at this point, as both partners could move on, one could move on, or both could be eliminated.

As the hopefuls prepared for battle, the judges explained that their opponent wouldn't necessarily be their demise.

During a recent American Idol episode, Carrie Underwood didn’t hesitate to roast her co-star.
She joined Season 23 as a judge to replace fellow singer Katy Perry, who left for her world tour and travel to space in a historic Blue Origin flight.
Carrie has received plenty of backlash and criticism upon joining due to her inauguration performance earlier this year.
Some critics have also called out the Season 4 winner for her unrecognizable appearance amid potential cosmetic surgery upgrades.

Carrie Underwood is a Hollywood star — as in, a celebrity — who still cringes when she thinks of a gaffe she made on American Idol two decades ago. In a recent Instagram video in the reality show’s #IdolToIcon series, Underwood rewatched a clip from her Idol debut in 2005, when she won the competition’s fourth season. The clip shows a getting-to-know-you Q&a with Underwood and host Ryan Seacrest. “A lot of people take photos of the sidewalk, the stars, the sign,” Seacrest says in the clip, as he interviews the country singer on a Los Angeles sidewalk. “Not me!” a 21-year-old Underwood responds. “You take pictures of the trees,” Seacrest says. “Any of the stars? Have you seen stars?” “I mean, it’s been pretty cloudy,” Underwood says, examining the sky. “No, I mean celebrities,” Seacrest clarifies. “Ohhhhh,” a laughing Underwood says. “Ok, no. Just you!” View this post...

American Idol has seen its share of former contestants arrested, and recently, Antonella Barba was detained by police in Pt. Pleasant Beach, New Jersey. She was stopped during a traffic stop due to an outstanding warrant for her arrest.
A Domestic Violence Charge
TMZ reported on April 1 that the Season 6 contestant, who previously served time on drug charges, had “a warrant out for…a domestic violence charge from two weeks ago, and her federal probation from the prior drug case was violated based on the new charge.”
Currently, the singer, who ironically auditioned with Deniece Williams’ song “Free,” was not free for long. Nevertheless, she has been released to home detention. Barba, who allegedly injured a former partner with a punch, will appear in court on April 29.
Formerly charged with intent to distribute fentanyl, movement restrictions were in place at the time. The original offense dates back to a 2021 conviction,...

Mads Mikkelsen Fantastic Beasts ( Photo Credit – Wikimedia )
Mads Mikkelsen knew taking over Grindelwald from Johnny Depp in Fantastic Beasts 3 wouldn’t be easy, but he wasn’t about to copy Depp. Mikkelsen was all about making the role uniquely his own.
“It was quite chaotic,” Mikkelsen admitted in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, recalling the rush of being offered the role. He had only two days to make his decision — talk about pressure. But the real kicker? He wasn’t about to copy Depp’s portrayal. “You don’t want to copy anything [Depp was] doing — that would be creative suicide. Even if [a role has] been done to perfection, you want to make it your own. But you still have to build some sort of bridge between what came before.”
Mikkelsen’s Grindelwald had to be fresh, unique, and, most importantly, his own. Director David Yates was on the same page, making it...

American Idol is moving ahead with full steam, and recently, Backstreet Boys’ member Brian Littrell was spotted once again singing along to his son Baylee Littrell’s song “Hey Jesus” with his emotions pouring out — although the song was being performed publicly on such a big stage for the first time.
Baylee went on to sing this song he had written for his late grandmother during the March 31, 2025, episode of American Idol Season 23. Before starting, Baylee revealed that he was very close to his grandmother and that it was her who he’d spend time with while his father was away touring. However, her passing caught him by surprise, and it pushed him away from faith. He further added that the song, “Hey Jesus,” was written after her passing and it’s the song that helped him find that “faith” again.

Wilson Phillips singer Carnie Wilson has stepped in to defend her daughter against “nepotism baby” allegations.
Notably, Wilson, the daughter of Beach Boys founder Brian Wilson, is a nepo baby herself.
Wilson’s daughter, Lola Bonfiglio, recently auditioned for American Idol in an episode that aired on March 23. In the episode, during Bonfiglio’s audition, judge Carrie Underwood mused, “I’m guessing you come from a musical family,” and asked Bonfiglio what she planned on performing. Bonfiglio responded, “First, I have to get some family members.” She proceeded to bring Wilson, her father Rob Bonfiglio, and Wilson’s sister, Wendy – fellow Wilson Phillips founder – on stage in a move that many interpreted as an attempt to profit from her parents’ fame.
Bonfiglio, Wilson and Wendy went on to sing Wilson Phillips’ 1992 hit “Hold On,” which earned them approval from the three judges, Underwood, Lionel Ritchie and Luke Bryan.

American Idol Eliminates Half of Season 23 in Hollywood Week — Did Your Favorites Survive the Arena?
“Can’t we just keep them all?” Carrie Underwood asked during Monday’s American Idol, which marked her first time suffering through Hollywood Week from the other side of the judges’ table.
And her stress was completely understandable. Having to narrow 144 singers down to 62 would have anyone crying out for Jesus to take the wheel — not to mention the added pressure that came up with the return of the Idol “Arena,” a musical lion’s den in which each contestant performed at random while surrounded by their entire competition.

When it was first announced that Carrie Underwood would be replacing Katy Perryon the 23rd season of American Idol,it would be unrealistic to believe that somebody wouldn't try to sing one of the country artist's most famous songs. On this past Sunday's episode, contestant JMarie auditioned with a more soulful version of Underwood's hit single "Before He Cheats." Despite being nervous about contestants performing her own songs, Underwood couldn't help but love JMarie's audition.
Ahead of performing "Before He Cheats," JMarie told Underwood that the song is a "hood classic" and explained that all her friends back home know the lyrics word for word. JMarie delivered a slowed-down, bluesy version of Underwood's iconic song, while also showcasing her strong vocals by hitting the high notes during the chorus. Underwood was so impressed by JMarie's rendition of her song, that she complimented her for giving the tune a fresh take.

Carrie Underwood shared a mysterious new video with fans, prompting some to question her appearance.
The American Idol judge uploaded an Instagram video this week of herself outside, wearing large glasses and an all-white bejeweled suit.
“Guess what I’m doing?” she asked as she looked at the camera before turning toward the side of a red vehicle she was in front of.
“I’m digging my key into the side of his pretty little souped-up-,” she sang from her hit song Before He Cheats as she dragged a key across the side of the vehicle, creating a visible zig-zag mark.
“You gotta tune in to figure out what’s going on,” she told fans.
In her caption, she cautioned, “Ladies, don’t do this. You’ll ruin your car key! #CUonIDOL.”
However, many fans seemed more interested in figuring out what was happening with Carrie’s “unrecognizable look.”
