American Idol Auditions: American Idol discovers Keneshe Young
Last night it was Louisville and San Francisco American Idol auditions. It was also the night Keneshe Young was found. A full hour to try and figure out why Louisville is tone deaf. If they had better auditions, the producers would have certainly shown them to us. Thank God we got to see the next winner of American Idol, before the show ran out of time.
It’s really hard to imagine that American Idol showed us thousands, upon thousands of Louisville hopefuls waiting for their auditions and they all fell flat. Yes, every season American Idol auditions seems to hit one or two cities, where most auditions don’t even come close to Hollywood. What is up with that?
What do you think of Kara DioGuardi as the newest American Idol judge? It is kind of tough to make any real judgements yet. In some ways, Kara seems to be a breath of fresh air. She is not afraid to stand up to Simon Cowell, that is a shining fact! Anyone that can react that strongly to Simon has my vote.
Keep your eye on Leneshe Young. She won the golden Hollywood ticket Oscar for last night’s American Idol auditions. Leneshe was raised in destitute poverty with her siblings. After the story leading up to Leneshe’s audition, I totally expected her not to be able to carry a tune at all. More, because American Idol enjoys doing the back stories on auditions that fall flat.
As Leneshe stood in front of the judges, a true miracle took place; Leneshe Young is the real thing. She not only sang well and looks like angel; this girl sang a song she wrote and got away with it! All four of the judges fell in love with Leneshe, because she is the real deal.
If anymore Leneshe’s turn up at later auditions, this season of American Idol could be one of the best seasons yet. Hang in there, Leneshe! Just be yourself. Your days of poverty are almost over now.
