So, Parade spoke to the judges after the show to find out why they picked her following her performance of “And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going” from Dreamgirls . “All the people that are going home tonight, I’m not worried about any of them,” Katy Perry told Parade. “Sure, winning American Idol is what some people want, but it’s really about taking this momentum.

Chris Pratt and Jimmy Kimmel   couldn't pass up the opportunity to play a joke on some unsuspecting fans.  During an episode of  Jimmy Kimmel Live  earlier this week, Kimmel had the Guardians of the Galaxy actor pull a fast one on some fans visiting Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California.
