U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team stars Abby Wambach and Alex Morgan will appear on American Idol on April 22 (8pm, Fox) to help make “a very special announcement.” Since the Top 6 will perform “Arena Anthems,” we suspect the winner will be invited to sing the national anthem at the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
Canada is hosting the Women’s World Cup this year–the Cup will run from June 6 to July 5. All 52 games will be shown live on FOX, FOX Sports 1, FOX Sports 2 and on tablets and mobile devices through the FOX Sports GO app and FOXSportsGO.com. Wait, that network sounds familiar. That’s right–that’s the American Idol network. And if you think Idol is tough… the Star-Spangled Banner is one of the most difficult songs in the world to sing!
