American Idol: Top 5 Girls
#1 - Lakisha Jones
As soon as I heard the first bars of “And I Am Telling You, I’m Not Going” from “Dreamgirls” I knew this girl had some guts and raw vocal power. Her performance made me tear up and gave me chills. This performance was in a whole other league than that of any other contestant.
#2 - Melinda Doolittle
Melinda is a blessing in this contest. She is sweet, shy and real. She has the vocal chops of a young Aretha or Mary J. Blige. Her quiet charming personality only cements her place in this contest. She will go very far if America knows what is right.
#3 - Sabrina Sloan
I had no idea who Sabrina Sloan was, but didn’t care when she started to sing. She sounded just like Christina Aguillera and her energy was infectious. Her loud, powerful voice will get her far in the beginning but will it be able to compete with #1 & #2? I cannot wait to see this battle!
#4 - Stephanie Edwards
Stephanie put the boys to shame as the first girl to perform. The men looked like karaoke chumps after seeing Kimberly walk on stage and fall to her knees. I love the theatrics and dramatic flair she adds to her performace. I wonder what she will do next!
#5 - Jordin Sparks
Once again my number 5 pick is so-so. Jordin did well, but didn’t do much to boost her popularity with a boring song and look. I could care less if she goes far, as far as I concerned this show belongs to these other girls on this list.
