On last night's AMERICAN IDOL, 18-year-old contestant Jax, from East Brunswick, NJ took the stage of Detroit's Fillmore theaters to celebrate Motown Night.

While the singer wowed the crowd with her performance of 'Ain't No Mountain,' host Ryan Seacrest was more interested her wardrobe choice, the black and blue dress that recently stirred an international debate. "Is this the dress that broke the Internet?" asked the host, joking "I see blue and black."

He then went on to hold up up the original controversial photo on his iPhone commenting, "In this, I see white and gold. I'm totally confused."

AMERICAN IDOL

The search continues to find amazing talent from across the nation. Hosted by Ryan Seacrest, and featuring judges Harry Connick, Jr., Jennifer Lopez, and Keith Urban, the series empowers contestants and viewers to share their voices in deciding who will be America's next singing superstar.

Every year, tens of thousands of hopefuls from across the nation audition for a shot at stardom. The show's judges will travel across the country including stops in Atlanta, GA; Austin, TX; Boston, MA; Detroit, MI; Omaha, NE, Salt Lake City, UT; and San Francisco, CA, in search of the next AMERICAN IDOL. They narrow down the competitors to a select group of semifinalists who sing their hearts out each week in front of a studio audience and television viewers.

The judges have their say after every performance, but it's the viewing public that determines who will advance to become a finalist and who will go home. Telephone, text message and online voting begin immediately after each live performance show, and the results are announced during the following night's live broadcast.
