<p>American Idol and ABC have released the following statement regarding their scheduled auditions in Texas:</p>
<p>In light of Hurricane Harvey and the devastation in Texas, the American Idol bus will be canceling the previously scheduled auditions in Houston on September 2 and San Antonio on September 4. The safety of the community is of the utmost importance and our thoughts go out to all of those affected.</p>
<p>For anyone who would like to continue to pursue their Idol dreams, we encourage you to attend the upcoming auditions in Shreveport, LA on September 4, and New Orleans, LA on September 14, or submit your audition online at<a href="http://americanidol.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> americanidol.com</a></p>
