Hello Lotters,
I mean, will she even make it to the runner ups?
Out of the stupid boredom i decided to watch movies in youtube. but for days I have been astonished by this Contestant who has really gone shine out of other contestants for having such gifted voice.
She had gotten the praises from the American Idol Judges for the past few shows, except this time when she got criticized with the song she recently sung "time to beat" they think it's a wrong song but they actually told her to stay out of ballads last time she sung something.
Other competitors are really on the rise in improvements. but unfortunately, some feared just like what happened to thia Mega, she got eliminated from the TOP 10, which was sad. but i think her experience and humility pulls through.
Am glad that a Filipina-mexican is showing that filams can compete.

Jessica is not special. a lot of black people can sing that way but are not given much pride and media attention.

So what if she's not special? I didn't say anything about her being special, but i do have the strong enthusiasm to this person. maybe Charice is better than her or any other singer for that matter. maybe you don't want her to begin, i don't care about your view. am glad CB doesn't have crabs in his head hahaha

Jessica Sanchez is so talented! However, there are several others equally as talented as Jessica. There can only be one American Idol. Someone has to go home every week. There is a lot of exceptional talent this season. I think that jessica will at least make it to the top five but who knows from there.
Remember that even those who do not make it to the top might still have a successful career.

Hello Bostonphil, Yes, and thats because they pick the right song this time, while some say she is at the top of her peak the rest are slowly emerging from the current situation. well, i hope she makes it to the top 5 or at least one of the runner ups. yes, they did make it to the stardom already

I worked tonight and did not see American Idol. I will be home tomorrow to see who is eliminated or goes home as it is said.
How do you think Jessica did? Who do you think will go home on Thursday?

I really hope that she will make it in the finals. SHe really has a great voice and I think she is one of the top contenders in the competition. She just have to listen to the comments of the judges to make it to the finals.

Hello angelbelle, She has made it to the Top 9 so far but if she doesn't make it then that's alright. she's a good listener and knows when and how to do it right, thanks for the mentor's help. she was able to excell over and over again, despite the fact that she is not the favorite among every one

The biggest factor againts her is the genitalia she is born with. Its been 5 seasons since the last time someone with a Uterus wins this competition.I can see her as one of the final girls. she have many odds to defy. did you know, 1 PM in the afternoon, if you use an American Ip address, You can vote in American Idol via skype. complicated process but if you want to support her its could be worth it.
she must always choose the right songs so she can stick around, since she doesnt really have sob stories for her family is not poor, she needs to at least show personality on her "home videos"
Filipino females had been a staple in American idol since season 3. Jasmine is not really good, Camille,Ramiel and Thia where good but they have poor song choices and got too pressured by over hyping of Phillippine media.

Hello CaptainAlbert, I have a bad feeling she may not make it too after Top 9, but we never and i don't even want to predict it. unfortunately, i don't have an american IP address to begin with. i think she's in trouble with this song of hers, some believed that she screwed it, others think she still nailed it, i guess it's in the perception. anyways, i hope she makes it even though there's a risk of her getting eliminated.

I like Jessica Sanchez not only because I am biased but she can really sing. She seems to be one of the early favorites with the 2 standing ovations she received from the judges. The last performance was also good by my standards but certainly it did not bring the best in her so the judges were quite disappointed. I really hope she reaches the top three but it all depends upon the American fans. I also like Joshua who was obviously another early favorite among the judges. This season has many outstanding contestants and it would be quite difficult to predict the results this early. I have been a consistent follower of American Idol but for the last 3 years most of my favorites did not get the Idol crown like what happened with Adam Lambert.

Hello Yahnee, That was earlier but now it seems they're favorites are shifting to either Joshua or Phillip.If Jessica choose the wrong song again, she might be elliminated this time, as we know other contestants are way getting better in the recent showed up songs. I think Adam Lambert did it alright for me. lilke i said in youtube, it doesn't matter if she wins or not, as long as she gets into record deals w/ her new songs and have more concerts.

I was truly amazed at Jessicas' gift when she sang the Whitney Houston song. It's easy for me to think she'll be there til the end but I didn't see the show last week.

hi lk!
i'm rooting for jessica all the way to the top. which i hope she bags.
my top 2 for the ladies would be jessica and skylar, and my top 2 for the guys would be phillip and colton.
but then again, i hope jessica is the one. i got hooked on AI this season not because there's another Fil-Am contestant but because she is that good. i really like jessica's rendition of the prayer, showed lot of emotions, definitely my favorite. love you i do showed lots of spunk and excitement. i will always love you is just passion and grace, the most viewed AI performance in youtube this season. and turn the beat around, although not my favorite of all her performances but still equally good, shows her beat and variety.
i know where the fear of jessica-turning-like-thia is coming from. thia had such a great classy voice with a perfect pitch but did not match great song choices and variety coupled with excitement. jessica is different and has a wider range. plus she has the confidence that belied her age. i hope she continuously do well in the next performances. i'm glad filipinos and latinos in the US are supporting her.
cheers!

Hello Myles, It's a very tough competition out there, but i think Jessica has the edge because he has been known since the freaking american talent show. I hope Jessica doesn't end up like thia did. besides, she is more humble and charismatic than thia. more filipinos will be watching her soon

Jamsin Trias? randy jackson commented her about her not being a pure blood American. he said this is the American idol baby, American. i wish that Jessica wins. she is a good singer and she has shown signs of being the judges fav early in the competition. she will make us all proud. hoorah for jessica!

Hello Seven, I remember her very well, I don't recall randy saying that, i'd check on that any time soon. but i hope the way judges make conclusions on the performance and the way they sing it and not because of their race. i know she will make us proud, have a nice day

I am watching American Idol lately, well i believe Jessica can do it... unless they vote her off... what is they judge her physically? i do not find her that much pretty though - since they are looking for a "whole package" but i pray not. She is really really really good!! I love her too since she is Pinay also. I am also watching So you think you can dance, one of the finalists is a filipino too.. Tadd Gaduang, i hope he wins he is very good too

Hello Jazel_juan, If they prefer the whole package, they would definitely go for Hollie since she got the looks for a model american idol singer. She gets better every time she sings the song, even if it's not on her field of music. have a nice day

I'm confident she'll make it to the finals, and it's not because I'm bias as a Filipino, but I truly believe in her capability to do so. Her voice is very impressive and I think Steve Tyler and music producer Jimmy Lovine see that also. I mean, they implicitly say it each time they make comments. But I think Jessica is going to have a big challenge from Skylar Lane and Hollie Cavanagh. They too have great voices plus Skylar is a country singer, and it seems that they have a slight edge always in AI. Jessica also has to contend with Joshua Ledet, the obvious favorite of Jennifer and Randy.

Hello beamer, I think skylar, Hollie, Phillip and most specially Joshua is becoming better than before. some fans are saying that while Jessica is at the top of her peak, the rest of the contestants are completely emerging. I noticed that too Jennifer and Randy is kinda favoring Joshua because of his style and Phillip as well.

I've always been a fan of American Idol, one of the few reality shows that I look forward to each and every season. Jessica Sanchez is very good, but I hope she doesn't make the same mistake made by Thia Megia who was always choosing "safe" songs which means wrong song choices. Jessica tackles difficult songs which fit her voice well, but her last performance didn't impress the judges. Most contestants get eliminated not because they're not good singers but because of poor song choices. I hope she doesn't fall into that trap (again). I would be happy if she makes it to the top 3 just like Jasmine Trias(Season 3), but of course, much happier if she gets farther.

Hello Doryvien, ok, that is really weird?! Thia Megia was eliminated because she was playing it safe?? and was asked to experiment more. but right now, she was told by the judges to stick to the ballads and what she is familiar to.there was even time that I checked whether the site is actually true about American Idol being a Rigged show. anyways, probably not more realistic now with out Simon Cowell.

She had one outstanding song so far, that is all. Then Joshua had one they called "The best song they've heard on Idol" which was not true. It's all a matter of how many fans these people have and who votes. Rememeber, it' snot even important who wins, as there have been many times when they winner did worse than the runner up or even the one in fourth place. I am rooting for Hollie, moreso. And I like Colton Dixon, he is a rocker like me. He has a killer smile and his faith in God will pull him through far, but I know he won't win, oh well. He will still be successful though. Maybe even moreso than the winner.

Hello NailTech, I don't know but Colton has done really well, unfortunately Steve was right, he is a good rocker there and only one but he too gotta pick the right song. unfortunately, the race is getting harder by he day and the challenges will become more intense, let's hope Jessica makes it.

The song is 'Turn the beat around' by Gloria Estefan.
I hope the best of the best will emerge victorious. If its Jessica, then she should win.

Hello shebacs, we still cannot determine this just yet but for sure they have shown their best. let's hope she does emerge as the champion here, but even thoguh she does not, she will be a real stardom from then on
