The first season of “American Idol” on BAC ended on May 21st with Maddie Poppe being crowned the winner! With its huge success this season, America’s beloved singing competition series announced today the list of upcoming American Idol audition cities for the network’s second season. The nationwide search for the next superstar kicks off later this summer – on August 25th – as the Idol Bus jumps into gear across America, offering hopefuls the chance to audition for a shot at superstardom.
