In the superhero sequel, DJ AM plays himself spinning at a lavish Malibu birthday party for billionaire-superhero Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.). Director Jon Favreau said he hesitated whether to include DJ AM (real name: Adam Goldstein) in the film following his death. But he was strongly encouraged to include the scene by the late musician’s family and friends.

Near the end of the show’s broadcast, when host Ryan Seacrest revealed that 19-year-old Alex Lambert would be staying in the competition over Tyler Grady, four seconds of audio were censored. The apparent cause: Lambert’s celebration contained some choice words not suitable for television.
A rep for the Fox reality series told TVGuide.com “that the audio was dropped by broadcast standards due to language.”
In addition to Grady, America’s votes eliminated Ashley Rodriguez, Janell Wheeler and Joe Munoz.
