Nokia Theatre L.A. LIVE to Be Powered by Two Renewable Energy Resources

The Nokia Theatre L.A. LIVE will be powered by two renewable energy resources during the two-night finale of Fox’s American Idol, the network announced Wednesday.
The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power’s “Green Power for a Green LA Program” will use sources including solar energy, wind energy and hydropower to power the arena during the production.
And Fox will install a solar-panel system provided by E-Village in the media-arrivals area, with the high-performance photovoltaic system to be integrated into the LADWP utility grid, contributing to the renewable energy mix.
The two finalists on the reality competition juggernaut will compete for the title Tuesday, May 20, with the winner being crowned Wednesday, May 21, in a special that will feature special guests and surprise performers joining host Ryan Seacrest.

If Fox is looking to change the Idol image, the first thing they need to do is get rid of Paula. She doesn't add anything concrete to any of her critiques, only a bunch of B.S. Keep Randy and Simon and perhaps have a different guest judge every week in place of Paula. And . . . DEFINITELY keep Ryan, for me, he is the one who makes the show!!!!
