  • Season 7 Idol Mentors Are Announced | Great American Idol Blog | 3/20/2008
    Finally, watching the tedious results show paid off! Ryan Seacrest announced last night that the (thank goodness only) four mentors for the top 10 will be Dolly Parton, Mariah Carey, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Neil "Sweet Caroline" Diamond.
