This week, "American Idol" comes to a close when America chooses the next Idol. It also marks the last time SIMON COWELL will judge the show. Today he'll look back on the last season with Ellen, and she'll find out what's next for him! Then, so many people are excited about JACK JOHNSON's new album -- which reached #1 on iTunes -- and it's not being released until June! He's here for the first time to sing his hit song, "You and Your Heart." Also, a few months ago, Ellen and Portia found out about an amazing organization called The Gentle Barn, which rescues farm animals from terrible situations and brings them back to health, while also providing a great learning experience for at-risk kids. Portia recently visited them and brought along some cameras, and today she'll share the incredible experience with you.
