There’s a first for everything! Pia Toscano may have been eliminated from American Idol, but she’s already making history as the first castoff to perform on the Dancing With The Stars results show before an official Idol has been crowned.

Rumors have been swirling that Pia has been getting close to Dancing With The Stars cast member Mark Ballas and now we know why! Whether or not it’s a publicity stunt, we’re excited to see Pia performing again on such a big show.

No word yet on what she’ll be performing. Could it be her rumored first single? Reports have claimed that Pia has been rushed into writing and recording her first album now that she’s signed a record deal.

Will you be tuning in to see Pia on Dancing With The Stars?

Did You See Rihanna Performing ‘California King Bed’ On American Idol?!

For the first time ever, Rihanna blew us away with her performance of her latest single, ‘California King Bed,’ when she took to the American Idol stage last week.

For years, all we could think about was Rihanna performing Mariah Carey’s ‘Hero’ during a school talent show. If you’ve seen it, you know what we’re talking about!

Seems the years have been good to Rihanna’s voice and she’s able to carry a tune during a live performance. We love a good RiRi jam, but we’ve never turned to her for a stellar vocal performance. Could things be changing?

Celebrities Take To Twitter, Outraged Over Pia’s Idol Elimination!

American Idol fans were outraged over the elimination of frontrunner Pia Toscana on last night’s results show. With flawless vocal performances each week and nothing but praise from the judges, no one expected Pia to be sent home, much less be in the bottom 3. Twitter was buzzing when word quickly spread about Pia’s departure. Pia instantly became a trending topic on Twitter and celebrities took to the social media outlet to express their shock and outrage over the results.

Ryan Seacrest: Can’t get over last night’s #AmericanIdol! So bizarre. After I read the results I thought to myself, ‘did I get that right?’

Jennifer Lopez: I am truly sad. I can’t believe this happened. You have to vote for who you love! We will miss you @ptoscanoAI10 !!

Jennifer Hudson: “I can not believe they just eliminated pia ! ReAlly..????”

Ellen DeGeneres: “Are you watching Idol? I am shocked and sad.”

Ashton Kutcher: “Who are the people that vote on American Idol? That’s just crazy! That Pia girl is dope. #almostcriminal.”

Tom Hanks: “Don’t have an Idol habit, but how could the USA vote Pia off? I may be done for the season.”

Minka Kelly: Will someone please explain to me HOW in the WORLD @PToscanoAI10 (Pia) has been voted off American Idol?! #baffled!!

Maksim Chmerkovskiy: Wow just watched American Idol for the first time this season and they got rid of the best female singer this season! Pia was amazing! I’ll never complain about our eliminations…..hehehe

Dax Shepard: This did not just happen!!! How??? I’m going to do something radical. I love you Pia! This is more egregious than that no-hitter that was ruined by that ump. I’m going to do something drastic. This has put me in an unstable mood.

Alyssa Milano: What in the world? Pia? Pia was sent home? How is that possible? I’m so confused. #AmericanIdol @PToscanoAI10 Keep your head up, beauty girl. You’re an awesome talent.

Ali Fedotwosky: I JUST heard that Pia got eliminated from #AmericanIdol last night. How is that possible? The judges need to bring her back! #AI

Bette Midler: They dumped Pia!! How did that happen??

David Cook: Bad call tonight on Idol.

Chris Daughtry: What the crap!!?? I thought Pia was THE best singer on the show this year!

Kimberly Cladwell: “Did Pia just get voted off idol?! She’s too hot for people to take her seriously! That’s crap”

Snooki of “Jersey Shore”: “Pia should have won the whole thing! I’m not watchin Idol anuymore. I’m with JLO on this one…”

Sammi Giancola of “Jersey Shore”: “WHAT!!!!!!!!!” and “wow. upset over American Idol right now.”

Comedian Marlon Wayans: “Pia eliminated not fair! Who do the teens wack off to now? Dammit life’s not fair… Well kids, there’s always j-lo”.

After the show, Pia tweeted, “I’m truly going to miss my idol family! Thank you @JLo Randy and Steven for believing in me. Love you and love my fans!”

Let’s not forget, American Idol is a show about ratings, sponsors, and media blitz. Every year, Idol focuses on voter participation and tells America that the results show people aren’t voting enough for their favorites. The show is sponsored by AT&T and the more texts viewers send, the more money everyone makes. Pia was their ticket to making more money. It’s just unfortunate that someone so talented was cut so soon. Pia won’t have a problem with her career now that her Idol days are over, it just would have been nice to see her perform each week and make it to the finale. At the end of the day, the producers have the final say and they got exactly what they wanted. American Idol is the only thing people are talking about today.
