Guests at one of the American Idol Experience shows at Disney’s Hollywood Studios got an special treat this week, as current American Idol Phillip Phillips stopped by the show. Phillips made a surprise appearance at the show on Thursday while in Central Florida for a stop on the American Idol Live! concert tour.
In addition to appearing in the live show, Phillips also taped a series of short videos that will be played during future shows of The American Idol Experience. Each day, park guests compete at the Experience for a shot at a Dream Pass for a real American Idol audition, with audience members voting to determine who makes it into the final finale show and becomes the ultimate winner.
