American Idol, The Day After: Top 8 Results Dish with Special Guest Casey Abrams

By | Reality Rocks – Fri, Apr 6, 2012 7:27 PM EDT

This week, "American Idol's" top eight finalists sang songs of the totally awesome '80s, so when my usual co-host Matt Whitfield couldn't make this Friday's "Day After" shoot, I decided to recruit a totally awesome guest host: Season 10's Casey Abrams, who was happy to put on some Michael Jackson gloves and Valley Girl beads and join my '80s party.

Watch Casey and I chat about his own crazy "Idol" run, what '80s song he would have done if he'd had the chance last year, his upcoming album on Concord Records, and his always colorful opinions on his favorite Season 11 contestants. Suffice to say, Casey is totally rad to the max!
