I personally am most excited for Ben Harper, Brett Young, and Jason Mraz. I might also be biased because they’re singing with some of my favorite contestants. But no matter who your favorites are, Idol did a great job of pulling in a mix of relevant celebrities and some classic names. They continue to get all-stars who contestants will get excited about but not overshadowed by. Plus, you’ve gotta have some star power for your Top 20!
The All-Star Duets on American Idol will air this Sunday and Monday night at 8/7c on ABC.
