The fantastic Top 24 American Idol contestants are allowed to connect and keep in touch with their incredible fans via official pages on major social networking sites like MySpace, Facebook and Twitter.

2010 American Idol Season 9 Top 24 Semifinalists FULL List (PHOTOS, VIDEO)

This is completely innovative!! In the previous eight seasons of the show, social networking was banned and previous accounts were deleted prior to the start of the live shows. FOX has probably established some rules for the contestants’ use of these resources.

Each of the twelve girls and twelve guys have their own official pages (full list of links below) and they will be sharing with us all the unbelievable once in a lifetime experience of being part of the most popular TV show in the US.
