The fourth season of “American Idol” is stacking up to be an amazing return to ABC. We have just received confirmation that Bobby Bones will be returning as in-house mentor for “American Idol”. He is joined by Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, Luke Bryan, and host Ryan Seacrest.
Bones will once again offer his industry expertise, helping hopefuls tap into their artistry and take their performances to the next level. “Idol” will return to ABC in 2021, after dominating Sunday nights last season, claiming the No. 1 position for broadcast series among Adults 18-49 and becoming the No. 1 most social reality series of the 2019-2020 season.
