America Completes Season 8′s Idol Hopefuls
March 10, 2009 · Filed Under All Entries, Entertainment

America have completed its new set of Idol hopefuls with one contestant more than originally determined.
Twelve Hollywood Week survivors battled it out during Round 3 of the Top 36 and the following stood victorious:
- Lil Rounds – 23 years old from Memphis, TN
- Scott McIntyre – 23 years old from Scottsdale, AZ
- Jorge Nunez – 20 years old from Carolina, PR
Eight contestants who were previously eliminated from the Top 36 round were selected by the judges to compete for the Wild Card. Four made it through:
- Jasmine Murray – 16 years old from Starkville, MS
- Megan Corkey – 22 years old from Sandy, UT
- Matt Giraud – 23 years old from Kalamazoo, MI
- Anoop Desai – 21 years old from Chapel Hill, NC
Sadly, unlike the first half, none of their qualifying performances impressed me enough to be my favorite. However, I commend Matt Giraud and Megan Corkey for an enjoyable performance.

for tonight’s performance i liked
Danny Gokey
Allison Iraheta
Adam Lambert
gusto ko rin si Michael Sarver tsaka si Anoop Desai kaso mejo sablay sila sa mga song choices eh
mas bagay siguro kay Michael S yung “Gone too soon or She’s Out of My Life”
tapos kay Anoop sana yung “Ben” or “Happy”
sana kinanta na lang ni Jorge yung “Todo Mi Amor Eres Tu ( I Just Can’t Stop Loving You-spanish version)”

personally, candidate ko to go tomorrow sina jasmine murray, anoop desai, scott mcintyre, michael sarver, and jorge nunez but..
jorge might stay because of puerto rico’s votes;
scott will stay for being “inspiring”;
anoop might stay because he seems to have a big fan base.
