As far as those songs go. I’m done with those, I finished those sometime last year, that’s the way that it goes out.”
Additionally, Beckham recently accepted the American Reality Television Award (ARTAS) for Outstanding Judging Panel on behalf of Idol judges Luke Bryan, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie.

So thank you everybody, thanks to the three judges and we’re super happy to have this award.”
