Sparks watched an episode of the ITV1 singing contest while she was promoting her new single, 'Tattoo', in the UK last week and described the show as "awesome".
"The coolest thing is that they let groups and soloists perform, because it's just soloists on American Idol," she told DS.
"It made me sad though, because I watched the results show and I just totally felt how they were feeling, not knowing whether they were staying or not."
Sparks also shared her thoughts on the show's judging panel, saying: "The women judges are beautiful, by the way, and their hair looks great.
"Simon and the other guy judge just sit there with their arms crossed saying things like, 'That's absolutely horrid'."
