The Next: Los Angeles

Los Angeles is the sixth and last audition city. So, next week will be the semi-finals. A seventh singer (from any city) as chosen by America, will be joining the six winners.

Angela Mukul--Gloria Estefan
She sings Lady Gaga's "You and I". She's not terrible, but I just don't buy her. She seems really fake. I don't see her as being a legitimate contender or ever having a career in the music industry.

Tilky Jones--John Rich
He's an ex-boybander from the group Take 5. Another ex-boybander is making the rounds of singing reality shows this season. He sings Andy Grammer's "Fine By Me". He's a good-looking guy and he's got a lot of talent. I love that he plays the guitar, too. I really like him! (I just hope he has a shot coming out of the #2 performing spot.)

Jeremy Crooks--Joe Jonas
He sings "DJ Got Us Falling In Love" by Usher. He's pretty good. He needs to work on his phrasing and not getting out of breath doing the dance moves.

Krystle Cruz--Nelly
She sings "Mama Knows Best" by Jessie J. She is definitely the most dynamic singer of the night...by far! She's got a lot of power. I don't know if she's the best singer, but she's the most confident and loudest of the night, so I think she's got the win in the bag...and it doesn't hurt that she's singing last.

The winner: Krystle

Angela Mukul was the only one with any true vocal talent and was classy and poised. You call her fake..I call her professional and sexy in a classy smooth way...hot! She did not have to take off her clothes to totally mesmerize Joe and Nelly..they got her. They edited out Nelly saying "get it shorty" and commenting on her "gorgeous legs". All the judges were blown away and Gloria was beaming with pride... but it was edited weird. The reactions you see from Angela are from different comments which make her look fake. Plus I am sure she knew she rocked it compared to others and was a bit annoyed as any great vocalist should be in that fake "feedback" situation. I love the looks on her face cuz she knows they are manipulating the show. The show was extremely fake. Plus she was forced to do the dumb cricket commercial during her piece which I think she and her friends pulled off pretty well considering it was yes, Fake! Even her story line they put together was edited poorly. She came from a touring coffee shops, local restaurants, street singing, festivals, large venue background where she writes all of her own music and plays killer guitar...all left out.Made it seem like playing in that sad little shop with 2 customers was scary for her..hilarious! She has a future for sure..she has swag, beauty,amazing work ethic and the talent to back it up. Plus she is a true sweetie. :) Come check her out live sometime you will love it!
