By the end of this year, you can live out your dream and become an American Idol during your visit to Walt Disney World! Well, sort of. The actual television show isn't going anywhere. Disney has come to an agreement with Fox TV to put their own version of the popular show in a sound stage at Disney's studios.
According to the Orlando Sentinel, "Disney World visitors will be able to audition for the show at various locations, then perform and compete in front of studio audiences in a new American Idol sound stage that Disney will develop. The daily winners will be invited to try out for the TV show."
