You all know how much we love throwing in twists around here, right? Well auditions aren't even over, but we're already giving you one.
There is NOT going to be a Top 12 this year.
Yes, you read that right.
You see, we love that you guys have been sending so much love our way, in the form of blog comments, Facebook fans, and Twitter followers, that we are going to pay back the love.
Instead of just having a Top 12, we are going to have a Top 13! The Top 12 will be chosen as normal, based on the judges scores from their auditions, and then we are going to chose a 13th person, who didn't really rank up there, but that we can tell has an awesome bunch of followers. How do we know how awesome your followers think you are? Because they have been plastering our Facebook wall, and tweeting our butts off, and we can tell that they REALLY want you to be the next Blogger Idol. We figure this is fair because, even though you may not have had the best audition, we can tell that people love you, and we feel like we should give you a shot if that many people are passionate about you.
So what do you do now? If you haven't auditioned yet, GET ON IT! Auditions close on September 17th, which is a week from today. Once you've sent in your audition, mobilize your troops, and get your name plastered all over our blog, Facebook, and Twitter! Make sure we hear about how awesome you are from your fans!
Ready... Set... GO!
FINE PRINT: The contestants will not know which one of the Top 13 was the wildcard. The wildcard will be chosen by the judges, from all those who have given a clear social presence, and will not necessarily be the person who has the highest amount of people talking about them.
