Luke Bryan Speaks on Whether He and Carrie Underwood Will Return to ‘American Idol'

American Idol will return for its 24th season in 2026, but Luke Bryan isn't sure if he'll be along for the ride. The country music star recently spoke with Taste of Country Nights, where he opened up about the future of Idol and whether he and his fellow judge Carrie Underwood will be back next season. Underwood joined Bryan and Lionel Richie for Season 23, replacing Katy Perry. '[She] really enjoyed it,' Bryan said of Underwood's first season as a judge. 'I know she had a great time in the role.' As for whether that means she will be back for another go-around next year, Bryan shared, 'My prediction would be highly favorable.' However, when it comes to his own future with the show, the 'Buy Dirt' singer was more apprehensive. 'Idol is kind of a year-by-year, 'Do we do it or not?'' he stated. Bryan and Richie joined the ABC singing competition series in 2018 and have completed eight seasons behind the table. They served alongside Perry for Seasons 16 to 22 before Underwood joined the panel earlier this year. Lionel Richie, Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan; Disney/Eric McCandless Despite his apprehension over returning, Bryan emphasized that he loves the show and had a great time on Season 23. 'Last year was really, really incredible with Carrie and Lionel and Ryan [Seacrest],' he said. 'And the main thing is just, have fun with American Idol and have fun with the kids [contestants].' As for his future, he simply added, 'We'll see what happens.' Bryan has spoken in the past about how he and Richie are on one-year contracts that are re-upped ahead of the new season. He admitted that Disney, ABC's parent company, are often 'tightlipped' about its decisions, so he often doesn't know until late-on whether or not he'll be back. In July 2024, ahead of Season 23, he told Billboard, 'We currently haven't heard what the story is on who's coming back, and if Lionel and I are coming back. I think Disney is just trying to figure out what they want to do and we're just kind of sitting back and waiting until they decide.' Would you like to see Bryan back for another season of Idol?

Oasis Live '25: European tour rumours circulate as no mainland EU dates yet announced

When Oasis announced they were getting back together and taking the show on the road, no dates were listed for venues in mainland Europe. Guess fans on the continent just had to roll with it. Liam and Noel Gallagher kicked off their Live '25 Tour in Wales at Cardiff's Principality Stadium last month, and they've brought their long-awaited reunion tour to their hometown of Manchester and most recently London. Next up are shows in Edinburgh and Dublin, as well as stops in North and South America, Australia and Japan. However, there may still be some hope left for fans in mainland EU... The Rome City Councillor for Major Events has claimed that 'negotiations are underway' to bring Oasis' tour to the Italian city – sparking rumours that more dates could follow. Alessandro Onorato said on local radio station Radio Sei that he's making efforts to bring the tour to Italy. 'Organising a large event in Rome is very complicated; in the past, Rome has been the 'city of missed opportunities.'' He continued: 'Oasis in the capital? These are live shows for companies that organise events all over the world, and the financial aspect is crucial. Negotiations are underway.' So, could Oasis be adding some more dates? Don't get too excited just yet, as Onorato's comments come after the Britpop band's manager Alex McKinlay denied that more tour dates were going to be announced. In May, McKinlay told Music Week: 'This is very much the last time around, as Noel's made clear in the press. It's a chance for fans who haven't seen the band to see them, or at least for some of them to.' He added that there would not be any new material from Oasis: 'There's no plan for any new music.' Then came a response from Liam Gallagher, who took to X to contradict McKinlay's comments and reaffirm that only he and his brother call the shots when it comes to Oasis updates. 'The only people that will be making any kind of decisions on the future of OASIS will be ME n RKID (Noel) so let's just take it 1 day at a time.'He later doubled down on his stance, telling another fan who thought 'there must be a degree of truth' to the manager's comments that McKinley is 'the accountant' for the who knows right now... All mainland European fans have to do is pray to that Champagne Supernova in the sky and stay tuned for any possible extra tour dates. In other Oasis-related news, it was recently announced that the money made from Oasis' shows at Manchester's Heaton Park would be used to help fund grassroots music venues in the city. Indeed, the Manchester city council announced a £250,000 (€287,000) fund for local music venues – a move that comes amid worrying statistics about the UK's live music scene in recent years. Last year, it was shared that only 11 of the 34 grassroots venues that Oasis had previously performed in still remain open, and in 2023, it was revealed that the UK was set to lose more than 10 per cent of its grassroots music venues. The Oasis tour continues. After dates in in the UK and Ireland come stops in North and South America, Asia and Australia - ending (for the moment) in Sao Paulo, Brazil, on 23 November.

Rome City Councillor claims 'negotiations are underway' to bring Oasis to the Italian capital in 2026

The Rome City Councillor for Major Events, Alessandro Onorato, has fuelled speculation Oasis are set to perform in Italy in 2026. Despite claims the Oasis Live '25 Tour will not go beyond 2025, Onorato has alleged "negotiations are underway" to bring the Britpop legends back to the European country for the first time in 17 years. Speaking on Radio Sei this week, as quoted by La Cronica De Roma, Onorato said: 'In 2026, Oasis could take their tour to Europe. And yes, we've applied to host them in Rome.' He continued: 'Oasis in the capital? These are live shows for companies that organise events all over the world, and the financial aspect is crucial. Negotiations are underway.' As it stands, the Slide Away rockers are due to wrap their first jaunt since 2009 on November 23, 2025 in São Paulo, Brazil. Frontman Liam Gallagher recently insisted he and guitarist Noel Gallagher - who were embroiled in a messy 15-year feud before agreeing to put the past behind them to give Oasis fans the reunion they'd always dreamed of - will "take it one day at a time" with regards to the future. The band's manager, Alec McKinlay, insisted the Oasis Live '25 Tour isn't the beginning of new releases from the band. He told Music Week magazine: "This is very much the last time around, as Noel's made clear in the press. "It's a chance for fans who haven't seen the band to see them, or at least for some of them to. But no, there's no plan for any new music." The news sent shockwaves through fans, with one asking frontman Liam on X: "liam I don't know who the manager of Oasis is, but his attitude of telling us that after this tour there will be nothing more was not very biblical. (sic)" However, it seems the Live Forever singer isn't ruling anything out with his brother. Liam replied: "Neither do I and the only people that will be making any kind of decisions on the future of OASIS will be ME n RKID so let's just take it 1 day at a time. (sic)" The Shockwave singer followed up his response by suggesting he could even do another album with John Squire, after he and The Stone Roses guitarist released a joint self-titled LP last year. He penned: "I might do another album with John who knows I might join the spiritual space invaders I might do nothing that's the groovy thing about the future nobody knows."
