Description

This week on Momager, we’re taking you behind the scenes of American Idol… 👀🎤

Felicia opens up about her unforgettable journey as a contestant on American Idol Season 8—including never-before-shared behind-the-scenes stories, emotional moments, and the rollercoaster of being a young mom chasing a dream. She also gives us a sneak peak into a day-in-the-life with the current American Idol band.

Then, we welcome Megan Michaels Wolflick, the Executive Producer of American Idol on ABC. Megan brings her wisdom as a mom and an executive, sharing what it takes to succeed on the show in 2025—from advice for hopefuls and parents, to how they keep Idol fresh year after year! And you don't want to miss Megan's Memory Challenge...or Malachi's hilarious impersonation of Felicia!
