Bobby Bones made his first appearance on the television series American Idol as the top 24 contestants mentor for this season on ABC. Or in our eyes – America’s Mentor!
Bones made his BTeam fanbase as well as loyal listeners of the Bobby Bones Show so proud as he appeared throughout the show sharing his wisdom on the entertainment industry.
On tonight’s episode (April 8) Bobby talked with 12 of the contestants sharing advice, hearing about their lives and working together to figure out how they can make it to the next level.
All of the contestants from tonight’s episode are pictured below with Bones.
We pulled some of our favorite lessons from the episode and put them below for us to all watch over and over again so we can be a little more like Bones!
