We're curious whether competing shows try to squelch performances of songs popularized by former American Idol contestants. Can someone sing "I'm on a Roll" for their X-Factor audition and expect to have it televised tonight?

@MichaelSlezakTV It's time for "Guess that song/artist" ~ "I'm sorry, I'm really a mess right now..." GO!

Sorry that I didn't see that part , I'd imagine it wouldn't be their first choice.
Some of these things are relationship driven though... it would have more to do with what the producer of The voice or x factor wanted and their relationship wiht 19 enterainment or recording label Interscope (and the huge parent and sister companies like A&M and geffen etc) I'd think. Favors are traded etc.
Ok this is very little research but I did find one in a quick google and related wikipedia surfing
Quote:"A Moment Like This" is a song originally recorded by American singer Kelly Clarkson the first winner of American Idol, released as her first ever single (as a double-A side single with "Before Your Love") which topped the Billboard Hot 100. The song was included on her debut album, Thankful.
