American Idol will continue its current season despite the coronavirus pandemic, with contestants performing from home.
The programme’s team unveiled plans for the rest of the ongoing season on social media Tuesday.
Ryan Seacrest will perform his hosting duties from Los Angeles.
Judges Katy Perry and Lionel Richie will tune in from California as well.
Luke Bryan, the third judge, is set to work from Nasvhille, Tennessee, as is mentor Bobby Bones.
Contestants will perform from their respective houses, and viewers will vote as usual.
American Idol‘s current season began in February on ABC.
The coronavirus pandemic suspended production before the live shows could take place.
