Joshua Ledet ‘Imagines’ Himself As The Next ‘American Idol’
Before ‘American Idol’ contestant Joshua Ledet ‘Imagine’ by John Lennon for round two, the contestant’s choice, we took a visit to his home town in Louisiana.
The whole town turned out for Ledet’s arrival throwing a crawfish boil, parade, and watching their ‘Idol’ in concert. (Did we me

Joshua Ledet ‘Ain’t Too Proud To Beg’ For Your Votes on ‘American Idol’
This week, ‘American Idol’ contestant Joshua Ledet sang ‘Ain’t Too Proud To Beg’ by Motown sensations the Temptations. After this performance, we don’t think Ledet will have to beg, or even politely ask for America’s vote because he’s already got it. In rehearsal, Jimmy Iovine told the singer he was “a gift” and joked about when, not if, he would be making a record with Ledet.
Skylar Laine Takes The ‘American Idol’ Stage By Storm With ‘Fortunate Son’ + ‘You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me’
Somehow our favorite country bumpkin on ‘American Idol‘ this season, Skylar Laine, landed herself in the bottom three last week. Rather than sulking about her near demise, the fiery singer came out tonight (May 2) in a fringed vest and boots choosing to perform a foot stomping rendition of ‘Fortunate Son’ by Creedence Clearwater Revival.
Hollie Cavanagh Comes Out Swinging With ‘River Deep – Mountain High’ + ‘Bleeding Love’ on ‘American Idol’
We have been sitting on the edge of our seats just waiting for ‘American Idol’ contestant Hollie Cavanagh to bust out of her shell. While she has one of the biggest voices in the competition, she also has spent the duration of it fading into the background on account of bad song choices and, of course, tough competition.
Heejun Han Makes a Comeback on ‘American Idol’ With ‘A Song for You’
After being in the bottom ‘American Idol’ contestant, Heejan Han entered this week with his tail between his legs. While his charismatic personality and humor shone on stage, his vocals weren’t quite cutting it. Perhaps it was the harsh reality of barely surviving another week that got Han to take the competition seriously and hit us with a comeback.
Elise Testone Gives Us Reason to Show Her ‘A Whole Lotta Love’ on ‘American Idol’
When ‘American Idol’ hopeful Elise Testone walked into rehearsal and told mentors Stevie Nicks and Jimmy Iovine that she was planning to sing ‘Whole Lotta Love’ by English rock band Led Zeppelin, they looked slightly worried. However once Testone opened her mouth, the fear and skepticism immediately washed from their faces. Nicks even had the singer harmonize with her on one of her very own songs
Jessica Sanchez Gives Us ‘Sweet Dreams’ On ‘American Idol’
‘American Idol‘ contestant Jessica Sanchez is a diva in the making, so it was only appropriate that she serenade us in a Sasha Fierce fashion singing ‘Sweet Dreams’ by Beyonce Knowles. Sanchez coined Knowles as her idol stating “As a kid I used to try and do her moves, but I don’t anymore because I know I can’t do them!” We’d still like to see her give it the old college try.
Heejun Han Doesn’t Hit the Mark With ‘Right Here Waiting’ on ‘American Idol’
This week on ‘American Idol‘ we met contestant Heejun Han’s adorable parents and watched his Mom tear up as she recalled that how her baby Heejun always woke up with a smile on his face.
Shannon Magrane ‘Lights the World’ on ‘American Idol’
‘American Idol’ contestant Shannon Magrane may look like your average high school prom queen, but when the 16-year-old opens her mouth she has a voice that far transcends her teenage years. Singing ‘Go Light Your World’ by Kathy Troccoli, she remained strong and consistent from the first note until the very last.
