Interesting article that gives some insight into a few changes in the format. Looks like we will have two weeks of Vegas. Two groups of 10 from the boys and girls each week. It will then be cut down to the top 10 boys and top 10 girls which will then be whittled down by votes to the overall top 10 (instead of 12?) maybe two wildcards? Who knows...but it looks like they are not going to make sure that it is equally split boys/girls in the top 10 or 12...maybe continuing the Idol push for a girl this year? http://www.examiner.com/article/american-idol-2013-season-12-the-top-40-idols-go-to-las-vegas-this-week
