Auditions, City #2: Chicago
Great singers to watch for in Hollywood:
* = my favorites
*Mackenzie Wasner (aka "girl who's dad played piano for Vince Gill" and "girl who's dad looks like her grandpa")
Kiara Lanier (aka "girl who tried to run the interview")
Stephanie Schimel (aka "girl who caused Mariah and Nicki to fight")
Gabe Brown (aka "screaming rocker with curly hair")
Isabelle Parell (aka "girl who dueted with Keith")
*Griffin Peterson (aka "cute guy Nicki flirted with")
Curtis Finch (aka "Finchy") side note: he made it through, but I didn't think he was that great
Mariah (aka "girl battling anorexia)
Brandy Neelly (aka "blonde country singer adopted by her aunt and uncle")
Josh Holiday (aka "white guy singing Brian McKnight")
Courtney Williams
Andrew Jones
Clifton Duffin (aka "guy who's parents have never heard him sing")
*Johnny Keyser (aka "cute guy who tried out last season")
Kez Ban (aka "street performer who plays with fire" and "if I am destined to be in the blooper reels or embarrass my parents I'll leave right now" and " girl who sang 'pinocchio'" and"total wackadoo" and "girl who did not want to fill out the paperwork") side note: she said she was from planet earth, but I really have to beg to differ
*Lazaro Arbos (aka "the most amazing contestant ever")
This one deserves an explanation. This guy is incredible. Born in Cuba and came to America at 10 years old. He has a very, very bad stutter which makes it almost impossible to speak. BUT when he sings, it goes completely away, AND his voice is truly incredible. What an inspiration!!!
Watch his amazing performance here
Bad singers to look up on YouTube if you want a laugh:
Melissa Bush (aka "masseuse with the shiny pink outfit singing 'Downtown'")
Kevin Nabity (aka "martial arts guy")
Ieisha Cotton (aka "the 'professional' dancer")
Ashley Curry (aka "the girl studying musical theater" and "the girl who made Mariah Carey leave the panel" and "girl who wouldn't leave")
