Thirty hopefuls arrived in Hawaii but 10 were eliminated almost immediately in a new \u201cOhana round.\u201d After interviewing host Ryan Seacrest and judges Lionel Richie, Luke Bryan and Carrie Underwood in a group session on the first day of production (as well as celebrity mentors Brad Paisley and Keke Palmer) it was time for a sit-down breakfast with executive producer and showrunner Megan Michaels Wolflick. <\/p>\n<div class=\"article-related-artists \/\/ lrv-u-margin-tb-1 lrv-u-flex u-flex-direction-column@desktop-xl u-flex-direction-column@desktop-xl-max lrv-u-align-items-center lrv-u-margin-l-00@desktop-xl a-glue@desktop-xl lrv-a-glue--t-0 lrv-a-glue--l-0 u-margin-t-29px@desktop u-margin-t-250@mobile-max u-margin-lr-auto@desktop-xl-max u-max-width-400@desktop-xl-max u-width-100p@mobile-max u-max-width-80@desktop-xl\" readability=\"6.6153846153846\">\n<p><h3 id=\"title-of-a-story\" class=\"c-title lrv-u-color-white a-font-primary-fancy-m lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase lrv-u-text-align-center a-article-related-module-title lrv-u-padding-tb-050\"> Explore <\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"a-article-related-module-wrap lrv-u-flex u-flex-direction-column@desktop-xl lrv-u-flex-grow-1 u-width-100p\">\n<div class=\"o-card lrv-u-flex u-flex-direction-column@desktop-xl u-flex-direction-column@desktop-xl-max u-align-items-center lrv-u-position-relative u-flex-basis-100p lrv-u-padding-b-075\">\n<div class=\"o-card__image-wrap lrv-u-flex lrv-u-flex-direction-column u-width-80 u-width-160@mobile-max lrv-a-glue-parent lrv-u-flex-shrink-0\">\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image lrv-u-height-100p\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/artist\/billboard\/\" class=\"c-lazy-image__link lrv-a-unstyle-link\"> <\/p>\n<div class=\"a-crop-1x1 lrv-u-height-100p\"> <img class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/wp-content\/themes\/vip\/pmc-billboard-2021\/assets\/public\/lazyload-fallback.gif\" alt data-lazy-srcset data-lazy-sizes height width decoding=\"async\"> <\/div>\n<p> <\/a> <\/div>\n<p> <span class=\"o-indicator lrv-a-glue a-glue--b-n050 lrv-a-glue--r-0 a-glue--t-auto a-glue--l-0 lrv-u-margin-lr-auto u-pointer-events-none lrv-u-background-color-brand-primary lrv-u-border-radius-50p u-width-20 u-height-20 a-icon-related-artist lrv-a-icon-after\"> <\/span> <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"c-tagline a-font-secondary-fancy-xxxs@desktop-xl a-font-secondary-fancy-s@desktop-xl-max lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase lrv-u-color-black u-padding-t-13 lrv-u-padding-b-2 lrv-u-margin-tb-00 lrv-u-text-align-center lrv-u-border-t-1 lrv-u-border-color-black lrv-u-width-100p\">See latest videos, charts and news<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> Wolflick has been on the <em>Idol<\/em> production staff for over 20 years and even worked on the one-season spinoff <em>American Juniors<\/em> in 2003. Rising through the ranks over many seasons, she has been an executive producer since 2018. Over the course of two hours, she offered a preview of the coming season. Topics included not just the changes to the current season, but the process of deciding which changes should be made and how to implement them. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> Wolflick also talked about the new label affiliation with Atlantic Records following previous deals with RCA, Hollywood Records, Big Machine and BMG. Finally, she discussed who is handling music supervision after the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/music-news\/american-idol-music-supervisor-dead-1236022120\/\">tragic murder<\/a> of longtime music supervisor Robin Kaye and her husband, Thomas Deluca.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>We\u2019ve talked about seasonal changes to <em>Idol<\/em> before, but I\u2019ve never asked about the process. How do you decide what elements to alter? Does it originate with you? How much does your staff contribute?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> There is a lot of brainstorming. We are trying to keep it fresh. And we ask ourselves, \u201cWhat can we do?\u201d I have an amazing team as a sounding board and I ask, \u201cDo you think this is a crazy idea? You can say no, of course.\u201d Also, every couple of years Fremantle holds a conference where we bring in <em>Idol<\/em> producers from around the globe. It really is a useful conference. We met recently in London and there were producers from Australia, Sweden and Germany. We had India this year. It\u2019s usually a one-day conference but this year it lasted two days. We exchange ideas. The idea for the judges\u2019 song contest came from South Africa. This year, while I was there, I was talking with the showrunner from Australia, Joel McCormack. He\u2019s doing some cool things like a segment called the gold room, and I partially morphed that into something we\u2019re doing in Hollywood Week. And during the conference while I was having lunch, I got the idea for a new addition, the Ohana Round. So the conference is very special.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>Ohana refers to one\u2019s extended family, including relatives, friends and social groups. How will this new round work?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> We are doing an extra episode here at Aulani and it comes after Hollywood Week and before America\u2019s vote. Hollywood Week is its own vortex through time and space so we wanted to see what how we could inform the judges about who is resonating with different groups. It\u2019s a social experiment. In my mind, the Ohana round is the ultimate focus group. You have three groups of people. You have the Idols. You have the families and then we\u2019ve curated a select group of influencers and music and industry experts to come in from their point of view. I wanted to see who would be the favorite in each of these groups. It\u2019s always interesting \u2013 the singer\u2019s singer, it\u2019s a very sensitive thing, like a painter analyzing a painting. The families are the voice of the people. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>Each group will vote and will have a number one choice that might be the same or might be different. And the number one picks of each group receive this year\u2019s platinum tickets. Can the families vote for their own?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> The Idols can\u2019t vote for themselves as a finalist. You can\u2019t vote for your own family member. That was important.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>So it\u2019s like the Eurovision Song Contest, where you can\u2019t vote for your own country.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> You can\u2019t vote for your own person. We had to do that and we had to limit two family members per person and only one vote per family. Being called Ohana night, it was important to do a song that meant something to their family growing up and dedicate it to someone in their family. I loved having a camera on our industry experts. It was like on TikTok, they have reaction videos and it was like watching a real-life reaction video. We really wanted them to express themselves and react.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong><em>Idol<\/em> has moved from Sunday nights to Monday this season. Last year you premiered in March and this year in January. But you are doing one episode per week for the entire season, instead of some weeks with two episodes. Add it all up and are you doing the same total number of episodes for the season?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> It\u2019s around the same number of episodes. One a week and we started in January. That\u2019s \u201cold school\u201d \u2014 premiering in January. Once a week is better in some ways. It\u2019s a lot to ask, four hours a week. What we know now in 2026 is there are so many different ways how people watch the show. You watch it on ABC. You watch it on Hulu. You watch it on Disney+. Or on Instagram.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>People can watch it on their phones.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> Exactly. I was at my son\u2019s elementary school last year and the woman who runs the office told me, \u201cI love the show. I love so and so.\u201d And I said, \u201cAmazing. Who else did you like on the episode?\u201d She said, \u201cOh, I just watch it on Instagram.\u201d But there\u2019s an investment. They are watching <em>Idol<\/em>. We have to bob and weave with the culture, but I do feel like Mondays is a good night for us. During the week is good. Starting off your week right. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>And you are not going up against major Sunday events, like the Super Bowl.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> Sundays are tricky. A couple of years, we started on Presidents Day Weekend, which is always hard because that\u2019s a holiday weekend. I feel like we were starting at a bit of a deficit there.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>You have a lot of production staff members who have been working on the show for a few years, but you also have the OGs \u2013 yourself, co-executive producer Katie Fennelly Watkins, senior supervising producers Patrick Lynn and Norm Betts and camera operator Dave Eastwood. Tell me about working with these longtime members of the production team.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> I think there\u2019s a really nice shorthand. There\u2019s a passion. It\u2019s family, really. It sounds so clich\u00e9 but it\u2019s comforting. It\u2019s been a part of their lives for so long. For someone like Patrick, it takes up his time in the best way. There are so many facets of the competition. There are the auditions. There\u2019s Hollywood Week. It\u2019s evolving and it never gets boring.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>Let\u2019s talk about the judges. You\u2019ve got Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie in their ninth season and Carrie in her second year. How would you assess them?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> I think they\u2019re a great team. They\u2019re happy to be here and they really love the show. I feel like their parents in a way and it\u2019s very genuine. It doesn\u2019t feel contrived. Yes, of course we are making a television show, but it\u2019s like they are sincere A&amp;R people and they love the ride. Carrie takes this job very seriously. She feels a pressure to deliver and all three are excellent at picking and cultivating talent. They really care and that is refreshing. And when we do auditions, it\u2019s like Christmas morning for Luke and Lionel. They\u2019re thinking, \u201cWho\u2019s going to walk in the door?\u201d They\u2019re excited about it still. And even for me being on the show for 20 years, the thrill is still there. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>At nine years, Lionel and Luke are closing in on Randy Jackson\u2019s longevity record as a judge, with 12 years under his belt.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> Lionel and Luke love it. Carrie is the first <em>Idol<\/em> finalist to be on any panel in the world.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>Let\u2019s talk about episode themes. Will there be a Disney night this season?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> Yes, we love that. I think Disney night and Rock &amp; Roll Hall of Fame night are staples on the show now. People love them and they\u2019re super interesting and ever evolving and there\u2019s a wealth of mentors and experts who can speak on both subjects. We\u2019re going to do a themed version of the judges\u2019 song contest this year with a bit of nostalgia with \u201990s music, which will be great. We\u2019re going to do the 20th anniversary with the class of 2006 for our university theme. We have a special surprise mentor for the finale.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>Will you still have live shows with voting results the same night?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> Yes, real-time voting and now this year we are introducing social voting. There\u2019s going to be a pinned voting post on all platforms, where you will write your name in the comments section of your favorite Idol. It\u2019s as easy as going on Instagram or wherever. You see the voting post and you type \u2018Fred Bronson\u2019 in the comments and that\u2019s your vote. So it\u2019s literally the easiest thing ever.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>And how will that be compiled?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> By our friends at Telescope. We\u2019ve been working on this for five years. It has never been available until now, so it\u2019s definitely been something that we wanted to push forward.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>So the days of voting by telephone are over.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> I know. [Laughing] \u201cData rates may apply.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>How do you feel when you see former Idols accomplishing something incredible?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> It\u2019s amazing and you feel so proud. The lion\u2019s share of people who come across the show, whether they are a massive success or not, are now making music their career, whatever that success may be. They are making music as a career whereas when they came to us, they were working in a paint store. The music industry as we know is very fractured now. Everybody\u2019s in a different silo of the algorithm, so the successes are different than they were even as recently as 2010.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>Back in season 1, people would say the Idols didn\u2019t pay their dues and radio was reluctant to grant airplay.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> Now you can get a record deal just by singing in your room. <em>Idol<\/em> gives these kids a crash course in the music industry. I have heard stories about people being signed from the internet, from TikTok, and then they come and start working with A&amp;R or start doing shows and they can\u2019t do it because they have no experience. That\u2019s one way we talk to these kids who say, \u201cWhy should I come on <em>Idol<\/em>?\u201d Well, we\u2019re going to give you access to the best hair, makeup, staging, performance audio and band. You\u2019re going to get access to all of that in a very short period of time. It\u2019s like a boot camp for the music industry. When you come out on the other end, you can actually play a show. We are giving them access to A-level styling, everything. But at the same time, I always tell everyone the hardest worker wins. If you\u2019re not willing to put in the work, you\u2019re not going to see the success. We can give you the launching pad, but you have to swim. So I do get very proud and excited when you see someone doing well off the show. We are blessed in that way, like [season 23 winner] Jamal [Roberts], Grammy nominated in less than a year. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>Is there any change in people\u2019s reluctance or willingness to be considered?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> Yes. Back in the day, everybody was waiting in line and camping out for two days and then waiting in another line to sing for 25 seconds. Now we obviously have a casting team. We\u2019re scouring the internet for people. People are coming with managers. They\u2019re coming with teams. They\u2019re coming with publishing deals, but we have to be relevant once again. It runs the gamut. There\u2019s the guy from Mississippi who works at [a day job] and tried out and then there\u2019s the person who might have a million followers coming in.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>Something else new this year is an <em>Idol<\/em> podcast. Tell me what that will look like.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> We\u2019ve wanted to do a podcast for a while. <em>Dancing with the Stars <\/em>introduced a podcast as a companion piece for their programming and it did really well and it\u2019s interesting. We had the after-show back in the day, <em>Idol Extra<\/em>, but this is going to be taped when each live show is over. We\u2019re going to talk to the eliminated finalists. We never get that moment. There\u2019s no kiss-off anymore, so this is a really nice way we can talk about that person and their journey.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong>When <em>Idol<\/em> started, the winner and sometimes the runner-up were signed to RCA. Other labels became involved in later seasons: Hollywood Records, Big Machine and BMG. This year you\u2019ve made a big change, making a deal with Atlantic Records. How did that come about?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> Atlantic came to 19 [Entertainment, Fremantle\u2019s partner in production of <em>American Idol<\/em>] interested in the show. One of the executives over there, Jeff Levin, worked for Clive Davis back in the day when he was in high school, around 2006. He was already an <em>Idol<\/em> fan. He knew the magic of it. So that\u2019s a full circle moment for him to come back. They are passionate and they are excited. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> <strong><em>American Idol <\/em>suffered an unimaginable loss when music supervisor Robin Kaye and her husband Tom Deluca were murdered in their home last year. People I talk to who knew Robin, including past Idols and production crew, are still grieving. Who is filling the role of music supervisor this season?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto lrv-a-font-body-m \"> Ashley Viergever, who worked under Robin for the past seven years and was her co-music supervisor, has stepped into the role. We didn\u2019t really bring in anyone new. It\u2019s the [same] team. And they\u2019re asking themselves, \u201cWhat would Robin do?\u201d Last night I was at the beach [at the Aulani resort on Oahu] and we were starting rehearsals and I don\u2019t know how this even happened, but we were looking at all the cameras and there she was.
