Well, here we are getting excited about the upcoming April 21st American Idol show for Idols Give Back week. Scheduled guest stars on the two hour special will include Carrie Underwood, The Black Eyed Peas, Annie Lennox, Jeff Beck & Joss Stone, Mary J. Blige & the All-Star Band and Sir Elton John. Octomom is also rumored to be making an appearance. President Obama and his wife also will appear on videotape.

If that isn't enough to keep get you to tune in and be glued to the set, Grammy award winning singer, Alicia Keys, will be mentoring the remaining contestants, Crystal Bowersox, Casey James, Siobhan Magnus, Michael Lynche, Lee Dewyze, Aaron Kelly and Tim Urban, on April 20th.

Now LADY GAGA has announced via Twitter that she will be appearing on the May 5th American Idol show:

"See you on American Idol. MAY 5th, Little Monsters."

What will she wear? What will she be performing? What will she wear? Oh, we asked that already, but you can believe that everyone will be asking that question from now until Lady Gaga makes a spectacular entrance on American Idol on May 5th.

    Good report. My sister and I were speculating on the song choice for "inspirational." As for Lady GaGa, she has really grown on me. At first I hated her, but I am starting to "get it," I think.
