American Idol winners Lee DeWyze and David Cook will return for the April 25 and May 2 results shows, respectively.
Also possibly on tap for the coming week? Season four heartthrob and current star of Broadway's Jekyll and Hyde, Constantine Maroulis, who cryptically tweeted The Hollywood Reporter's Idol Worship on Monday afternoon. The occasion: he was simply responding to our humble request that the show host a Broadway-themed night specifically so he could return.
