Our Suspicions Were Right About Why John Stamos Was in Disney World 🧐

This past week, we spotted the one and only John Stamos filming in the Magic Kingdom!

Hey there!

We have had some ideas that he was there to film for the current season of American Idol for Disney night. And, it looks like our suspicions have been confirmed!

Entertainment Tonight has revealed that John Stamos will be a guest mentor to the performers on American Idol this year during the Disney Night episode! The top 9 contestants have traveled to Disney World to receive guidance from Stamos in the beautiful setting of the Magic Kingdom.

After the top 9 receive a mentoring session from Stamos, a comeback show winner will join them to perform Disney tunes during the event. Along with John Stamos, Oscar winner Jon Batiste — who helped score Disney and Pixar’s Soul — will perform a song from the film, as Sofia Carson from The Descendants also sings during a group performance with some of the contestants.

The other mentors this season are Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, and Luke Bryan. Perry even talked about Stamos joining the others, noting “I think John probably said yes when he heard ‘Disney.’ The thing is, John and I are probably the biggest Disney fans. So he gets to go to Disney World with the kids, which is basically the greatest place on Earth, and so I’m a little jealous because they didn’t ask me. I would’ve totally done it!”

It’s John Stamos!

Disney Night will take place on Sunday, May 2nd, at 5PM PT/ 8PM ET on ABC as the voting takes place in real-time! Only 7 contestants will move forward in the American Idol competition after Disney Night, so you’ll want to make sure to tune in to vote for your favorite performers!
